Up for auction is my 1961 Econoline pick up. The truck is in stock condition with the original 140CI I6 and a deluxe 5 window body. There are drum brakes and leaf springs at all 4 corners, with a straight axle up front. The dash was cut by a previous owner for a stock radio and all the original gauges are in the dash. All the signals and lights worked the last time I drove it. The wiring is original and 12V. An alternator was installed by a previous owner. the body is very straight with little visible rust. The bed is in reasonable condition for the age of the truck. The spare tire mount is still on the wheel well. The previous owner frenched the tailgate hinges with bondo and the hasps are missing. I covered a red metal flake paint job with rattle can stain black so there are now black on black ghost flames. The roof and hubs have army green accents. This would make an excellent urban shop delivery truck as was the intended purpose in 1961. I hate to sell it but moved to the sticks and need a lifted 4x4 to represent.

The Bad:
Needs a valve job (my mechanic says there is a loose seat)
Rear main seal is leaking into the clutch
Breaks are leaking
Mechanical linkages are worn
Rust hole in the floor
Interior need lots of TLC

The good:
Straight body with little rust
Original, economical 140CI I6
OEM glass in the 5 window body
Fords first extra cab and the bed is 80" long
Great advertisement for your shop
Your wife won't get in it

Ford reveals Fiesta ST race car, points at road ahead for bigger things in Global RallyCross

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST doesn't go on sale until this summer, but fans of Global RallyCross will be able to catch the car in action before then. Announced ahead of the Chicago Auto Show, the Fiesta ST will be the car run by Ford GRC teams this season, and the model on display in Chicago will be the racecar built by Swedish tuner OlsbergsMSE driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan. Ken Block and his newly renamed Hoonigan Racing Division will also be competing in the Fiesta ST.
The 2013 GRC season has not been announced yet, but the venues will also include the summer X Games events in Brazil, Spain, Germany and, of course, Los Angeles. Ford announced that it will be the sole automotive sponsor of this year's summer X Games, and it will be looking to bring home a gold medal this year after Block placed silver last year.
In other Ken Block- and Ford-related news, another Chicago debut will be a tuned Focus ST called the TrackSTer project. Built in cooperation with Block, Ford and automotive tuner fifteen52, the TrackSTer will get plenty of styling, performance and handling upgrades. Some of the add-ons include a performance exhaust and short-throw shifter from Ford Racing, a rebuilt engine, upgraded components such as the limited-slip differential, intercooler, engine controller and clutch as well as upgraded brakes.

Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.
