From Harrison, Maine;

In remarkable preserved condition I am offering a genuine New England Farm Truck.

BODY; This truck has no rust issues. The body has been refreshed with minimal body filler used to

smooth surfaces. All repairs were old restorations and done in metal. Lines are excellent, body is solid, and a fresh coat of paint has been applied. The truck is a 10 footer.

INTERIOR. The dash, doors, and gauges are in original condition with no restoration being done. Floors had an older patch job at some point and are solid. Headliner is circa 1958 and appears old

but serviceable. I did recover the original seat. The truck does have an excellent aftermarket heater.

BED; This Ford F1 has the deluxe metal bed that was inserted over the wood bed. Both are in good condition.

UNDER CARRIAGE. The frame and under carriage are clean. Only surface rust appears in some spots on the axle and springs. At some point the truck had a very serious re-conditioning of the entire frame and rear bed. It is still in very good shape.

ENGINE. The deluxe model in 1946 offered the Ford Flathead V8-29A compression 6.4:1 power 100 hp. This has a single carb. The motor runs flawlessly. Exterior the engine is clean but age appropriate dirt and grim.

TRANSMISSION; Again the Deluxe has the four speed stick tranny with square gears (double clutch). Tranny does not leak and runs flawlessly.

BRAKES; I was told that they were recently redone. I have driven the truck (about 400 miles) with no issues.

EXHAUST; There is a new exhaust installed. It is a dual pipe system that sounds excellent.

OVERVIEW; This truck came from a well maintained home. It has had an older restoration which seemed oriented towards protecting the originality of the vehicle. I purchased it in presentable shape and have done preservation work to the truck to insure it's longevity. This is a wonderful example of the post war era vehicles that graced America's farmlands. This is a no issues parade ready truck that has immediate equity and drivability.

VALUE; HAGERTY, KELLEY, NADA, have a high book value of $42,000.00. Average book value is $17,900.00. This truck is in Very Good Condition and should be worth in the mid-twenties. I preserve and flip vehicles (30 years) so my reserve reflects a desire to find this truck a good home. Bid with confidence. This is a gem.

Ford gets colorful with Mustang anniversary infographic

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Preparing to celebrate its 50th birthday, the Ford Mustang has seen a lot of vehicle trends come and go, and this especially goes for paint colors. Using historical production data, Ford has managed to create an infographic dating back to 1967 that breaks down the three top Mustang colors for each year as well as calling out some of the more interesting trends and colors over the years.
Over its five generations, the Mustang has been offered in a seemingly endless rainbow - from Playboy Pink in '67 and color-changing Mystichrome on the 2004 Cobra - but the most popular has always been red, which is the color of choice for 21 percent of all Mustangs ever made. Almost every year since 1967, red has been among the top three colors for the Mustang, but other popular colors have included blue, white, brown and, most recently, black. There are even websites and registries available for people owning certain-color Mustangs.
As the all-new 2015 Mustang gets ready for its debut later this year, there's no telling what kind of exciting and/or wacky colors Ford has in store. Click on the image above to see the full infographic (choose the "large" option for optimal viewing), or check it out in a smaller size along with the press release posted below.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
