1952 Ford F-1 32k Original Miles 2 Owner. Local Truck on 2040-cars
Clarence, Iowa, United States
We are the second owners of the truck. Purchased it from a local gentleman who only used it to commute around our small town. We purchased it to do some light hauling. It spent most of its of its time in storage which explains the incredibly low mileage of 32k., which is a little over 500mi a year if I did my math correctly. All maintenance was kept up with including greasing and oil changes. We did just have the following items installed; plugs, wires, cap, rotor, points, condenser, coil, battery, hoses as needed, oil, filter, fuel filter, and intake/exhaust gasket. Truck does drive well and all gauges work, temp, batt, fuel, oil press and speedo. Does come with original wheels as well The interior is pretty clean for the age and all original. It could use a little spiffing up, but is very functional. This Ford could use some minor work to be totally road ready such as brakes cleaned and adjusted etc. I do drive it around every once and a while to keep it charged and the fluids moving. If you have any questions feel free to call or Message on ebay. I will represent this truck as honestly as possible. The bottom line is that it is a very rare truck in even rarer condition. It could use work to restore back to new ,but it could also be enjoyed as is. My name is Eric and you can reach me at 319-270-6181. Thanks for taking the time to look at the old beauty. Will post more pictures soon. |

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum
Mon, 27 Jan 2014With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.
NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Chip Foose tastefully enhances his personal Ford GT
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Typically, we'd expect a vehicle from 2006 to fall well short of a more modern vehicle, both in terms of performance and style. Of course, the Ford GT is not your average offering from the Bush era. That's doubly true when the 2006 GT in question belongs to one Chip Foose.
Purchased by his wife as a 50th birthday present, Foose is showing his custom, personalized GT at the 2014 SEMA Show. The 5.4-liter supercharged V8 breathes a bit easier thanks to a full Magnaflow Performance exhaust, but Foose's GT isn't all about the performance.
Instead, the car customizer extraordinaire has focused on tasteful aesthetic enhancement, tweaking the rear end by removing the bumper and trimming the frame extensions. The wheels, meanwhile, are one-off aluminum alloys, designed by Foose himself. Like the stripes, the wheels feature orange accenting.
