1953 Ford F-100 Short Bed on 2040-cars
Deer Park, Texas, United States
Almost all the parts are there, even has the original spare tire mounted under the bed.
The rear end has been replaced with another Ford rear end, unknown year. The Cab Floor is good, no rust holes that I can see. The Bed Floor is Steel Grating, not Wood. The frond end appears good all the parts are there and steers good. The Brakes will need rebuilding. It is not the original Tailgate it is a cover that is screwed shut and does not open. The Hood opens and closes but needs work and adjusting. The Running Boards are pitted but ok for a Rat Rod. Doors open and close very good. They do need the rubber seal. The Windows roll up and down. Side vent windows are Lexan one opens one does not. The Windshield and Seal are New. The fresh air vent opens and closes good. I don't know if the Gas Tank leaks or not. Smells like it still has old Gas in it. The Tires are New but aged and will need to be replaced, decent enough for transporting and moving around the shop. It appears the Truck has never been taken apart. The under carriage has never been cleaned up. The Frame is solid. I'm not sugar coating anything on this 60+ year old truck. Like I said it needs a total make over. Selling as-is where-is no warranty expressed or implied. On Jul-12-14 at 18:37:07 PDT, seller added the following information: The Engine does NOT run. |

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
2015 Ford F-150 brings big aluminum to the Rust Belt [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Just when you thought you'd figured the fullsize truck market out, Ford goes and throws us a massive curve ball with the 2015 F-150. The big headline news aren't tow or payload ratings, though we're sure those figures will be fully competitive if not class leading, they haven't yet been announced. Instead, the big headline news Ford is highlighting are the truck's new aluminum-intensive structure and 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
And with good reason - all that aluminum means that Ford was able to cut a massive 700 pounds from the truck's curb weight. That is going to cause all sorts of great things to happen to the 2015 F-150's driving dynamics, performance and fuel efficiency, not to mention its ability to haul heavy loads. For those customers worried about the strength of aluminum versus the more conventional steel, Ford is quick to point out that many military vehicles, such as the HMMWV and Bradley Fighting Vehicle, use a very similar sort of aluminum alloy in their construction.
It's also worth mentioning that the backbone, a fully boxed ladder frame, is hewn from high-strength steel. Ford says "2015 Ford F-150 is the strongest and most durable F-150 ever," for what it's worth, claiming that "torture tested" in labs and in the real world for more than 10 million miles. What's more, the truck, in disguised form, completed all 883 miles of the Baja 1000.
