First of all let me say anyone looking at this car knows it is a model T. In 1927 Henry shut down and retooled for the model A. This car has many features that the model A had. It has the gas tank under the dash (no more backing up hills). It has the steel wheels (no more wood rot). It has a 4 cylinder motor with a distributor and a coil. It has the push out windshield. This motor doesn't look like any motor I have seen. I have enclosed several pictures of it and if anyone has a clue please email me. The motor number DOES match the VIN number so it is a factory installation. I know Henry did some racing prior to manufacturing in order to get capital to build cars. This car had a professional restoration at some point and still is very nice. Has a few chips in the paint but other than that it is very nice. The interior is just as it was when restored. The seats, headliner, top, chrome bumpers front and back everything is as it was when restored. I have 24 pictures posted with 4 or 5 being the motor so you can see what I am referring to. I know the racers had what was called a rajo but I thought that was just a head and could be adapted to any 4 cylinder motor. The buyer is responsible for transportation. I will only accept cash or bank wire to my bank. Please only people with good positive feedback are to bid. This is an American icon and deserves to be treated as such. I am really curious about the motor and would appreciate any feedback about it. I have this advertised locally and in Roundup car and truck magazine. I reserve the right to end auction early if sold.

Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
Ford blamed in drug mule lawsuit
Tue, 30 Jul 2013If a college student is caught smuggling drugs across the border, one might think the kid got what was coming to him. But when a Mexican student at the University of Texas in El Paso was caught by Border Patrol agents with duffel bags filled with marijuana in his trunk, the man used a classic excuse: He claimed they weren't his.
While a claim like that is almost unbelievable, Ricardo Magallanes, the student, is now suing Ford for handling its vehicles' key codes negligently enough to allow drug smugglers to break into his Ford Focus and stash the drugs, The Daily Caller reports. The twist here is that four other people who lived in Juarez and worked in El Paso were involved in the same type of scheme - allegedly unwittingly, just like Magallanes - and all the cars were Fords except one model from General Motors. FBI agents also found an employee at a Dallas Ford dealership that had accessed the key codes to all four of the cannabis-stuffed Fords.
While we all may not own Fords, the case still causes us slight paranoia. We'll definitely be checking our trunks before we cross any more international borders.
