1952 Ford F1 Rare Deluxe Five Star Extra Cab on 2040-cars
Albany, Texas, United States
|
RARE TRUCK!!! THIS TRUCK IS A 1952 FORD F1 WITH (AS FORD REFERRED TO IT AS) "THE DELUXE FIVE STAR EXTRA CAB PACKAGE" WHICH MEANS IT CAME WITH STAINLESS TRIM AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AND HOOD SIDES, (ONE HOOD SIDE TRIM MISSING), IT INCLUDED THE INSIDE CAB LIGHT WHICH IS STILL IN PLACE, A LOCKING GLOVE BOX WHICH I STILL HAVE THE KEY FOR, KEYED DOOR LOCKS ON BOTH DOORS, I HAVE THE KEYS FOR THOSE TOO, UPHOLSTERED DOOR PANELS AND ARM REST WHICH ARE STILL THERE BUT NEED ATTENTION, DUAL WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND DUAL SUN VISORS ALL OF WHICH ARE ON THE TRUCK, CIG LIGHTER, TWIN HORNS, FOAM PADDED SEAT AND EXTRA SOUND DEADENING MATERIAL THROUGHOUT THE CAB. IT ALSO CAME WITH A FACTORY INSTALLED GRILL GUARD WHICH IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS KEPT THE GRILL AND HEADLIGHT BEZELS IN PERFECT SHAPE. BOTH DOORS OPEN AND SHUT WITH EASE, THE HOOD OPENS AND SHUTS NICELY BUT HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FINAL LATCHING. HOOD HINGES WORK GREAT.
THE TRUCK HAS A 239 V-8 FLATHEAD WHICH IS IN THE TRUCK AND COMPLETE.....NOTHING MISSING EXCEPT ONE PLUG WIRE. IT HAS A 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHICH SEEMS TO WORK GREAT...THE SHIFTER IS STILL ON THE ORIGINAL STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TITLE FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AS WELL AS THE REGISTRATION PAPERS UP UNTIL AROUND 1968 WHEN IT WAS PARKED ACCORDING TO ONE OF HIS FAMILY MEMBERS. I BELIEVE THE ENGINE WOULD RUN PERFECT WITH A LITTLE TLC.... I HAVE MARVEL MYSTERY OIL IN THE CYLINDERS AND AM SURE IT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH TO TURN IT OVER AS THE ENGINE APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN LEFT OPEN OR TO THE WEATHER. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 11,000 MILES AND THAT MAY VERY WELL BE CORRECT. REAR END IS ORIGINAL AND ROLLS PERFECT. AS WITH ALL 62 YEAR OLD TRUCKS IT HAS SOME RUST BUT IT'S REALLY NOT BAD AT ALL COMPARED TO MOST I SEE. THE LOWER FRONT FENDERS AT THE RUNNING BOARDS HAVE SOME RUST BUT I HAVE NEW PATCH PANELS FOR BOTH SIDES THAT GO WITH THE TRUCK. ALSO HAS SOME RUST ON THE FRONT FENDERS NEAR THE FRONT BUT SMALL PATCH PANELS WOULD FIX THESE EASILY. THE FLOOR HAS SOME RUST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY, BUT AGAIN NOT A BIG DEAL. THE RUNNING BOARDS AREN'T VERY GOOD BUT THERE IS A USED SET IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK THAT ARE SOLID WHICH ALSO GO WITH THE TRUCK. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO BUILD A "PATINA" TRUCK, JUST FIX THE FLOOR BOARD AND LEAVE THE REST....IT'S COOL LIKE IT IS!!!! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM. THE RESERVE PRICE IS FAIR BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE IT AWAY. THIS IS A RARE NICE TRUCK, SO BID ACCORDINGLY. IF YOU HAVE NO MEANS OF PAYING FOR THE TRUCK, PLEASE DON'T BID..... I'VE HAD MY SHARE OF DEADBEATS OVER THE YEARS... I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION AT ANYTIME PRIOR TO THE RESERVE BEING MET AS IT IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL....IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A REALISTIC OFFER FOR ME TO END THE AUCTION PLEASE DO SO, BUT PLEASE DON'T ASK WHAT THE RESERVE IS. I ACCEPT CASH IN PERSON, WIRE TRANSFER FROM YOUR BANK TO MY LOCAL BANK DEALING WITH BANK PRESIDENT, PAYPAL IF YA HAVE TO BUT WOULD RATHER NOT DUE TO THE FEE'S THEY CHARGE BUT IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE MOST COMFORTABLE WITH THAT WILL BE FINE, PERSONAL OR BUSINESS CHECK....BUT ALL FUNDS (REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY'RE MADE) MUST CLEAR BEFORE THE TRUCK LEAVES MY PROPERTY.... I'M AN HONEST MAN AND EXPECT THE SAME.....I ASK THAT THE TRUCK BE REMOVED FROM MY PROPERTY ASAP AS I DON'T HAVE THE SPACE TO STORE IT...THERE WILL BE A 30.00 PER DAY CHARGE FOR STORAGE FEE'S AFTER 3 WEEKS FROM SELL DATE UNLESS PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE.. |

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort
Fri, 24 May 2013Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
