Dunnellon, Florida, United States
1936 ford V8 flathead "PROJECT"pickup. Truck was acquired from Arizona and was completely disassembled. partial restoration had begun by original owner? with some work to the cab and rear fenders.. We would categorize this as a preserved vehicle not running condition. many parts we worked on were professionally sand blasted down to metal. The engine which came with the truck we were told was a rare "4 Stroker 8CM Mercury V8 flathead which was the engine everyone wanted back then. engine was in non running NON functioning condition. engine and tranny are not installed in the vehicle.
We are including a complete 12 volt conversion set, GM alternator ( no VR needed) , alternator mount V8 1935-1936 original V8 engine only .complete 12 v gauge set , polymer gas tank with 12 volt sending unit installed. We are not antique ford truck experts..if something was exactly not original or my be other than stock we would not even know and are not going to state its all stock OEM so bid accordingly..that being said it all bolted up and all seemed to fit and function.. again this is not a museum piece..simply a 78 year old desert survivor that needs a good new home and another lease on life.. priced is extremely fair ..please don't try to talk us down, no trades etc..again try finding any 1936 ford pickups under $40,000 on the market today.. ( maybe Jay Leno might have one ? ) : - ) Some parts may be missing.. its not 100% this is was received in many boxes and containers so we did our best to assemble in order to inventory what we had..only glass was right door..back window was unserviceable..other did not come with truck..front window frame is missing..again this may have a few items missing..( SEE PHOTOS) what you see it what you will get.!!! We cleaned it up and had it on display until recently..motor and tranny will need complete rebuilding and condition unknown. engine is not free , tranny is free and shifts 1st and reverse ..truck had been converted to "Juice" modern hydraulic brakes...truck had been sitting in the elements for some time and will need a complete overhaul. We decided to assemble the truck basically to keep the parts together. but please understand this is a super rare 1936 Ford and they are impossible to find now..never been chopped etc. we sand blasted everything we could down to metal applied preservation coat of paint put in storage...dents and dings, normal cracks not repaired for the simple reason we were not rebuilding this truck, just preserving it for long time storage.wheels and tires are ones which came with the truck..tires are shot. it will need allot of TLC to say the least..about an inch of desert dirt was cleaned off and everything was sprayed with WD-40 ..but remains as it was when we got it.. again please know this is not a weekend project so please do not bid unless you have the skills and the tools to complete this restoration..also if your intention is to chop or rat rod this wonderful piece of automotive history please look elsewhere...We went to great lengths to get this truck and preserve it for the future..these were manufactured only one year 1936.. 1935 as well as 1937 were different trucks contrary to popular belief ...buyer is responsible for shipping and nothing will leave the garage until full payment is made...cash or cashiers check only with $500 paypal non refundable deposit required within 12 hours following end of auction. do not bid please if you cannot pay..no lowballers..we know what we have..try finding another one that's not either chopped or rusted to hell..thank you and good luck..

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields
Fri, 27 Dec 2013According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.
