1959 Ford F-100 Panel Delivery Truck on 2040-cars
Castro Valley, California, United States
|
Up for auction is a 1959 Ford panel truck with 78,947 original miles from the Sacramento CA area. I was told it was used for delivering parts in that area. Had sat for many year before I got it. I have the title for it but have never registered it yet and is most likely out of the DMV system. I called them last week and it is out of the system. Was going to use it for parts but then started tinkering with it and got it running for around 30 bucks in goodies for it. Motor runs strong and sounds quiet. I did a full brake job meaning new wheel and master cylinders, brake shoes and turned the drums. New slave and clutch master cylinders as well. One wire alternator, spin on oil filter, tiny air filter, and a rebuilt steering box from Lares Corp costing me over 500 bucks. Did not have a heater originally in it but including most of those parts like the motor, fan, heater core and switch. Whatever else that may be missing most likely I can include except for the jump seat. Just has the drivers bucket seat and it is not pretty. A front bumper also included. It can easily be a daily driver and work on the body at the same time. I have seen worse bodies than this one, still will need rust repair on the hood, over one tail light and a side area and parts of the roof line. Passenger door skin is loose, just put in a drivers door glass with no cracks, have a front bumper for it and have installed the rear bumper and frame horns. Dent in right rear quarter area and a few more here & there as well. Have 4 of these beasts and would like to get down to two just so I can better concentrate on them. And $$ and space is not a problem here. Find the 57to60FORDS group on facebook. A great international club with lots of great folks! If anyone has any more questions feel free to call Dave at 510-886-3195, thanks. |

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.
Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24
Tue, 01 Oct 2013It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9. Scroll down for the full press release below on Ford's latest race effort.
Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.
