Very low reserve Here's a 51 ford f-1 with 48 front end. I picked this up as unfinished project, which is how I'm selling it, I was told by previous 10 yr owner that has a 1977 ford rebuilt 460 with cam, auto c-6 trans gone through by local trans shop. The motor and trans starts drives shifts down the road, motor sounds good with no smoke, has a new HEI dist. and a New Aluminum race radiator keeps engine nice and cool no overheating. I would put a electric fan on it and take mech fan off, as it sits above the radiator, could get hand caught if not careful and would cool and look better. The engine sat for a spell so has old gas in it I would change feul filter and put new gas in it. Also does'nt have a choke so you have to pump gas to start. I would put a manual choke on to help with that. Has a 89 s-10 front end with all wheel disc brakes powersteering and power brakes all works well and feels like it goes down the road straight. Did'nt take over 55 mph. Frame has been boxed in the rear, welds look abit sloppy but not too awful, its solid. Has adjustable air bags in the rear. The truck has had body work done in the past, and will need finished. Has new Aluminum fuel cell mounted in rear. No Tailgate Bed was custom made and a nice job. Running boards are custom made look nice but will need bolted better to truck. Has a homemade dual exhaust. Has wheels adapters put on so ford wheels would fit on it. I Believe it wheel run chevy wheels when those are taken off. Tires are in good shape. Have the rear Glass and DS glass is ther but broken, PS glass and mechinism is gone. Having a new windshield made, it will be included in the sale. The doors shut ok but you have to shut the DS door hard for it to latch tight. Seast are Bolted down and sets at a good hieght to drive. Has new Dolpin Guages that seem to work , speedo works, The wiring for radio lights and radio will need finished, and the tailgights are just sitting in place not bolted in. Not sure what lights work and which ones if any do. Radio does'nt power up. Does'nt have a key start, just flip a switch and push button starter. The truck is drivable shifts good, needs a few odds and ends but would make a sweet Big Block truck when complete, or a sweet Ratrod, made to your liking, Comes with a clear open title in previous owners name. The hood is just sitting on truck, it is in rough shape , not sure if it can be repaired or not, I will secure it for transport eight in bed of truck or on truck. May consider trade or buy now offer. Buying this as-is Please ask questions before bidding. 500 deposit 24 hrs after auction final in 5 days certified funds. Pick in 30 days in Kingsville ohio 44048 Right off I-90

Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9
Mon, 01 Apr 2013There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
Ford Explorer Jackson Pollock Edition results in trip to hospital
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Among the many useful pieces of driving advice we've taken to heart over the years, "Safely secure all cargo" is etched pretty high on our personal stone tablets. We've had a couple of frustrating moments over the years (numerous wonky cupholders and too-tall lidded cups; a radar detector that released its suction cups and dashed itself below the dashboard, etc.), but never anything like the scene above.
These photos above come courtesy of the Washington State Patrol, and they show the unfortunate aftermath of a driver, his dog, and his Ford Explorer after it crashed near the town of Belfair last week. According to reports, the man was schlepping five-gallon containers of paint inside his vehicle when he was involved in an unexplained accident. It's not clear what triggered the crash, but the impromptu abstract painting covered the whole of the interior, including the driver and his faithful companion.
The man was transported to a local hospital for minor injuries, and his dog was cleaned and later taken to a humane society.
