1946 Ford Pickup on 2040-cars

US $3,500.00
Year:1946 Mileage:78208

Belgrade, Montana, United States

For sale are these 1942-1947 Ford 1/2 ton pickup body panels from a dry Montana truck - they are the only pieces for sale, not the chassis. I bought this for the frame and don't know much about the body except what I have to say here.

Montana metal is the best! No road salt, dry climate - most of the original paint is still on the body! Why fight rust when you don't have too? If you blasted these, you'd have some solid parts to work with. Look at what these parts go for repro/used and you'll see this is a good package deal.

Obviously, ask questions and shoot me an offer.

You get:

1) Cab - very nice shape, only surface rust except cab floors (floors are rusty and need replacement panels), solid firewall/drip rails/window frames, uncut dash, includes valuable gauge cluster (not reproduced) and heater, comes with seat back springs (nice shape, still with some covering) but no bottom cushion, gas tank, reproduction passenger door (no drivers). I believe this cab fits 1937-47, but please check yourself.

2) Bed - fairly straight, has spare tire carrier, original metal floor covering, no tailgate, no wood subfloor. I believe this bed fits 1942-50 half tons, but please check yourself.

3) Rear Fenders - these aren't even reproduced except in fiberglass - no cancer but would need plenty of work repairing dents and tears

4) Running Boards - each has a 2 inch hole where pipe was welded on sticking upwards (not sure why), serviceable but would also need work

Buyer is encouraged to inspect these in person; located in Belgrade, Montana, near Bozeman. Parts are sold as-is and where-is and buyer is responsible for asking questions before bidding, and for shipping. You get no title, frame or running gear with this, only the parts listed above. I require a $500 PayPal deposit and the balance in cash upon picking up the parts, which are loose from the frame and ready to load. I will be happy to answer any inquiries. Thanks!  406-594-3075

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.

2015 Ford Mustang to make world debut on Dec. 5 [w/video]

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Between a bevvy of spy shots, speculative renders and insidery images from the halls of Car and Driver, we've got a pretty decent idea of what the 2015 Ford Mustang might look like. Still, we're excited to see the real deal as soon as possible.
Turns out that Ford has told us just when that first official look might come, too, although it has chosen somewhat of a backdoor fashion for dropping the news.
The video below popped up on the Ford Mustang YouTube channel this morning, promoting a social media effort called #MustangInspires on. The video and hashtag ask fans of the pony car to share pictures of the car - or "photographic stories of inspiration" - on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But the truly interesting part of the video description is that which mentions taking "the cover off the all-new Mustang" on December 5. Consider our calendars marked.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible to recreate Empire State Building stunt

Tue, 25 Mar 2014

It would have been all too easy to miss the auto show debut of the 2015 Ford Mustang convertible. It was, after all, unveiled alongside its fixed-roof counterpart at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, lumping coupe and cabrio into one debut. But Ford is evidently still intent on making its new droptop stand out. The top of the Empire State Building ought to do the trick.
Automotive history buffs may recall that, 50 years ago, Ford unveiled its first Mustang convertible atop what was then the tallest building in the world, that Art Deco icon of the New York skyline. Half a century later, Ford is recreating the feat and bringing the new topless Mustang to the same observation deck on the building's 86th floor.
Getting it up there, of course, will be no easy task. While they'd usually airlift the vehicle onto the roof or lift it by crane, the spire protruding from atop the building makes approaching the narrow observation deck too dangerous, and no mobile crane can telescope the thousand-plus feet it would take to get the pony car up there.
