1939 Ford Truck 1/2 Ton Pick Up Rat Rod on 2040-cars
Jonesboro, Louisiana, United States
|
Up for bids is this 1939 ford truck. This is a very unusual not often seen truck. Most of these are gone by the way side. The few that are left are either rusted to the ground, fixed up into high dollar trucks, or have already been made into rat rods. The way this one sits you could do basically what ever you wanted to do with it. It could be restored into a show truck, rat rod, street rod, hot rod, or just a simple driver so its an open book on this one. I got the truck from another gentleman who had it sitting in his warehouse for around 20 years. He got it from another couple who had it sitting in there barn for 25-30 years previous to that so its been off the road and in storage for around 40-50 years. I guess thats why it is still here today. otherwise it would of probably been rusting away. The body is really pretty solid. It has several dents and dings but over all the main structure is solid. The frame, cab, doors, running boards, bed, hood, fenders are all pretty solid. The body is pretty complete except for the tailgate. The motor and transmission is gone. I guess it was a flat head V8 originally. It will steer and roll. The doors will need some adjusting to shut correctly. The hinges are stiff and need to be alligned some more. When I got this truck it was pretty much dissasembled. I guess this was going to be someones project along time ago and it never took place. I would love to see someone get this and make something out of it. You see alot of the run of the mill cars but not to many 30's model trucks left out there. I took pics of everything that goes with it. I have the windshield frame, some interior pieces, and a few other pieces. I have a clear title to it. If you have questions or need more info just let me know. I will require full payment within seven days of the end of auction. If you need more information and would like to talk to me give me a call at 318-278-1069.

Ford dominates most-stolen SUV list
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
The Ford Escape leads the NICB's list with 1,421 examples stolen.
If you drive a recent Ford SUV or crossover, you may want to keep a watchful eye out for thieves - especially if you live in the New York metro area or in Detroit. A new study from the National Insurance Crime Bureau has named three Ford models as the most likely vehicles in their genre to be stolen, with CUVs in general being especially attractive to bandits.
Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
