1959 Ford F250 Pick Up Truck on 2040-cars
Sacramento, California, United States
1959 Ford F250 / LWB Step Side Pickup A Real Barn / Vineyard Find Up for auction is a complete, unmolested 1959 F250 LWB Step Side truck, we acquired this as a truck to part out as that is our main business parting out trucks for restoration projects and felt it was worth salvaging because of its history and it is all original except the bed*, even the seat appears to have the original upholstery. Current bed came from a Cal Trans Maintenance truck. The 223 6 cylinder engine runs beautifully, engine does not smoke or knock. Overall truck is in good to fair condition, it does not have much rust and the only real rust through is shown at the corners of the doors. We have rebuilt and replaced master cylinders, clutch slave, wheel cylinders and done a complete brake job. The gas tank and fuel system has been flushed, Carburetor rebuilt and fuel pump changed. Also a major tune up has been done. We have a clear California title and bill of sale for the vehicle. so if you were to register it I do believe you could drive it away. As long as you don't go far. It does need a set of tires, we put a set of used 16.5" wheels and tires on the truck as it had 4 flats on the original 17.5" rims when we acquired it, the original rims do come with the truck, if one wants to be totally authentic. All of this said here is the history of the truck as we know it. It spent its life as a working vineyard vehicle in the Napa Valley of California. The truck originally came with a step side bed which as happened in the day was discarded in favor of a home made flatbed for hauling grape boxes from the fields to processing. Truck was parked behind a barn in 1999 and basically forgotten. We acquired it about a year ago and have had it in a storage yard waiting to be parted out. We realized it should be given another chance once we reviewed its condition. In our clean up tore off the old wooden flat bed, we also had a LWB step side bed in nice condition to bring it back to more original so this is what we are doing. If buyer does not want that we can accommodate. Please look carefully at the photos of this truck before bidding and please contact us to answer more questions. Vehicle is located at our shop in Sacramento, CA where we maintain regular business hours if you should wish to look at the truck. We ship world wide and regularly ship to Europe, New Zealand, Australia and South America if you are an overseas buyer we have excellent references regarding our abilities for shipping.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings
Fri, 10 May 2013Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.
Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium
Thu, 21 Mar 2013According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...
