Beautifully restored 1952 Ford Marmon Harrington F2 All wheel drive 3/4 ton truck. This truck
went through a full body off nut and bolt restoration in the early 1990s by a well known 1952 Ford private
collector, parts and funding were not an issue when this truck was done and the results are obvious. I was a teen
at the time this truck was coming together and always admired its quality an detail. Then many years later I was
able to buy it out of his private collection. It's worth mentioning the
previous owner is very patriotic and wouldn't think of using foreign or any non OEM parts during its restoration so
all it's parts are USA made or NOS Ford, taken from his large inventory of NOS 52 Ford parts he was a large scale
collector. So you can be assured this isn't a restoration with a hodgepodge of foreign stuff today's market seems
to bring.
The engine is the correct era 239 V8 Flathead Ford and was rebuilt prior to the restoration and starts and runs
very nice. The only point I can deduct from the entire truck is that the engine block has a small repair near the
r/s water-pump that probably dates back to the 1950s and was obviously a good enough job that the rebuilder saw no
reason to replace it in after pressure testing in the early 90s when it was rebuilt prior to being installed in
this truck. This is not an issue it does not affect any performance or cause the engine to do anything unusual like
leak or run hot. The bed has been rebuilt using kiln treated, sanded and sealed hardwood, the trim is stainless steel and is show
caliber. The paint is one of the trucks many highlights, it is the factory color this truck was date coded with,
and is PPG Delstar Acrylic enamel, the finish is a 10 out of 10 I'm certain this paint job in today's market would
cost you over 20k to duplicate, which is one of the reasons I'm nervous to be around it. The interior is also
extremely nice and the seat has be reupholstered the spring set and even the burlap are were NOS 52 Ford, the
headliner replaced, all gages work even the dome light goes on and off with the doors being opened and shut, and
both spot lights shine bright. The odometer reads the mileage since the trucks rebuild.
To my knowledge everything on this truck works as
it should I have put a limited amount of miles on it with no problems, leaks,etc. It has been very well received
in the parades and shows I've had it in. The truck pretty much speaks for itself. This would make a wonderful
marketing tool for a large company to enjoy. I hold a clear title in hand.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected

Thu, 29 May 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."

2018 Honda Accord charges into slumping sedan market

Sat, Jul 15 2017

DETROIT - Honda on Friday revealed its newest-generation Accord, one of four re-engineered midsize sedans that Asian automakers are betting on to win market share as Detroit automakers shift focus to SUVs, crossovers, and pickup trucks. The new Accord, like rival Toyota's all-new Camry arriving this month, offers major improvements in fuel economy, technology, styling and safety. Honda declined to discuss details ahead of Friday's event in Detroit. The Accord and Camry are pillars of their manufacturers' US businesses, each selling well over 300,000 vehicles a year. In the coming months, Nissan is expected to launch a new Altima midsize sedan, and Hyundai will launch a new Sonata. Both are popular marques that will be promoted heavily. "There has been no new news on the midsize sedan side for three years, and we think this is a great opportunity to bring attention back to the segment," said Jack Hollis, Toyota's head of marketing for North America. Year to date, US passenger car sales are down 11.4 percent, and sales of midsize sedans are down 14.2 percent. Still, Americans bought 7.1 million sedans in 2016. With General Motors and Ford cutting sedan production, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles abandoning the segment, Honda and its Asian rivals could boost sales with updated models, dealers said. "They could take share from other brands, which is traditionally what happens when a new product is launched," said Pete DeLongchamps, vice president for manufacturer relations at Group 1 Automotive Inc, the third-largest US auto dealer group. "NOT FINDING A PLACE WITH CONSUMERS" The Accord for years was Honda's top-selling model in the United States. Within the past year, US sales of the Honda CR-V have eclipsed the aging Accord, and Honda has expanded production capacity for the compact crossover. Passenger-car sales have steadily declined since 2012, when they made up 51.2 percent of the US market. Sedans have sagged to a 38.1 percent share in the first half of this year. IHS Markit said US consumer loyalty to SUVs and pickup trucks has risen since 2012, but declined for sedans. The new Accord and Camry "may stem the decline," said IHS Markit's Tom Libby. "I don't think they will cause a marked reverse." Improvements to the Accord should boost sales at Galpin Honda in San Fernando, California, general manager Ed Hartoonian said.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
