1928 Ford Model A Roadster. Professional frame-off restoration of a VERY solid original Roadster by Spring Valley Restorations, Spring Valley, Mn., to a very exacting degree. Everything has been rebuilt to the best of my knowledge. Car runs-drives-stops like it came out of the factory originally. Car has had 121 miles put on it since restoration. Estate sale car, selling for my family which has owned the car since 1981. Dad bought the car in Minnesota, decided it was too nice to drive, parked it and bought another Model A to drive. Car has been carefully maintained in a dry garage ever since. Motor run regularly with fresh gasoline changed every year with fuel stabilizer added every winter to keep gas fresh. Motor turned over every two-three weeks when not being run. Backed back and forth in garage but never saw daylight in all these years! Paint finish still immaculate, enamel not lacquered  no checks and cracks over time that lacquer develops. Interior is like new. Tires still have nubs on the tread. Every seam is straight as a pin. I can't find evidence of bondo, using a refrigerator magnet,car is all Henry Ford steel. Top has some slight aging, a professional car detailer can probably clear that up. I didn't want to harm the paint with the wrong type of cleaner so I left it alone. This Roadster was built on Sept. 17, 1928 at the Ford Twin Cities Assy. Plant in St. Paul, Mn. Body stamp of 'TC527' Numbers matching car. Sold new to a Mr. Irhke in Pine Valley, Mn. at the end of Sept. 1928. Clear title. Many Model A's have had the motors swapped out over the years causing title problems. Not this car. All the car needs is to be enjoyed. Space does not permit us to keep the car, estate wills it be sold to highest bidder. People are dragging rotted out junk from abandoned farms and pouring tons of money into a correct restoration. Price a paint job alone today and see what THAT avenue of approach will cost you. It is staggering. Car sells if meets reasonable reserve. Please no e-mails asking what 'reserve' is I won't answer.

Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.
