This is an all steel 1936 Ford pickup titled as a 1936, body properly mounted on a 1989 Ford Ranger 2WD chassis. It has a good running 2.3 with an automatic trans power steering and power brakes. This setup makes this truck pretty reliable, good on gas and pretty easy to drive. It is a daily driver right now but could use a lot of finishing touches. Here's what it has. Working lights, working rear blinkers, and working rear flashers. It has a heater in it and I drive it in the winter on dry road days. Working speedo, fuel guage and temp, alt. guages. Recored flat head radiator. New exhaust, new timing belt, decent tires and decent brakes. It needs front blinkers, windshield wipers, front bumper installed, (I have it) headliner and interior trim to name a few things. I have the hood side cover for the driver side but the brake booster and power steering pump is in the way and would need to be moved. It's really about personal taste. I like it the way it is. I haven't washed it in two years because I like the just came out of a field look. It's just a cool old truck. The windows roll up and down and it has a sliding rear window. The front window has a crack but it's in my wifes line of vision not mine so it stays. It still needs some body work on one rear fender but the truck itself is pretty solid and very near ready to paint if desired but I've always felt it looks way to nice to mess up with shiny paint. It comes with a box of parts like all new door and window rubber, chrome trim pieces and other stuff specific to this truck. If you can't complete the sale please don't bid to much on it. If you really like it and want it bid alot and we'll work out the details. I'm not someone that's going to make all kinds of demands like: ASK YOUR WIFE FIRST!!!!! DEPOSIT WITHIN 3 SECONDS OF AUCTION END!!!!! AAAHHH!!! If you want the truck I'm sure we'll make it happen. Ask questions I'll answer quickly and honestly. I'm bidding on a car I have always wanted or I wouldn't even sell my truck. It is for sale locally so I might end the auction early if it sells locally. Thanks for looking.

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
Ford nets $5.7B in 2012, $1.6B in fourth quarter
Tue, 29 Jan 2013Ford brought in $5.7 billion in net income during 2012, which is around $307 million less than one year prior. Even so, the automaker closed out 2012 with the highest pre-tax profit for a single quarter in nearly 10 years, earning $1.7 billion in the fourth quarter thanks largely to a higher-than-average truck mix in the US. That's a jump of $577 million over 2011. Likewise, that translated into fourth quarter income of $1.6 billion. All told, Ford set a full-year pre-tax profit record in 2012. But that doesn't necessarily mean everything is rosy in the land of the Blue Oval.
Like every other manufacturer, 2012 saw Ford get hammered in the European Union, where a deep economic recession continues to drive down consumer confidence. The automaker lost more than $700 million in Europe, and saw full revenue of $26.6 billion in 2012. That's a decline of $7.2 billion compared to last yea. Ford says the market for new vehicles in Europe has contracted to 13.5 million units, the lowest number in 17 years. You can read the full press release below for more information.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
