For Sale; 1946 Ford Pickup
I purchased this truck in 2000, and, after about six months of concerted effort, was able to turn it into a very solid and reliable vehicle. This was my daily driver for ten years, and, I even took it on trips. The motor is a 1949, which means it has the "modern" distributor. I put in a capacitive discharge ignition system so I would never have to diddle with the points. They just act as a very low current switch. It was treated to lots of new parts: new brakes, new drums, new drive shaft, new alternator. I also put in a Hurst shifter and had a nice Briz bumper made for the rear. The pickup box is not original Ford, and the wood bed is now shot. The running boards are fiberglass reproductions. Converted to a 12 volt system, including a 12 volt starter. The cylinder compressions were good and even. It did use oil - I believe it was coming out of the valve stems. With the dual carb setup, it was only getting about 11 miles to the gallon. I personally put about 22,000 miles on this truck. Comes with lots of spares: two radiators, extra cylinder heads, a four speed gearbox and lots of miscellaneous hardware. Besides being my commuter, the truck was also used as a test mule for product development. I parked it two years ago when a connecting rod bearing failed - I had to drive it about seven miles to get it home. I took it out once more to verify a bearing failure, and took it back after a few blocks. All extra Beechhurst product electronics will be removed. Located in Flushing, Queens, New York. We are moving to Virginia and I just no longer have the time to devote to this vehicle, to get it back to running order. |

How the 2015 Ford Mustang will save your knees
Sat, 21 Jun 2014The 2015 Mustang is one of the most hotly anticipated vehicles of the moment, and Ford continues to leak out interesting little details about its newest pony car. The latest info doesn't have anything to do with its quarter-mile time or handling, but if any of that goes drastically wrong, the innovative new glovebox-mounted airbag may prevent passengers from knee injuries.
All variants of the 2015 Mustang get the active knee airbag as standard, and it's the first vehicle in Ford's lineup to receive the system. The setup is actually quite simple and ingenious. The glovebox is made from a plastic outer panel that is attached to the inner door. Sandwiched between them is this new injection-molded plastic bladder that folds flat when in use. If the passenger-side airbag deploys, the system springs into action to act as a cushion for your knees. Compared to a traditional knee airbag that has to fully inflate, this arrangement is 65 percent lighter and can use a 75 percent smaller inflator. It's also basically invisible when you look at the glovebox door.
Ford spokesperson Ed Saenz declined to tell Autoblog whether the system will appear in other vehicles in the Blue Oval's lineup but said, "We're considering other applications." Provided it's effective, the approach seems too simple not to make its way to other products. Scroll down to watch a video showing how the glovebox-mounted knee airbag works.
