1928 Ford Model A Closed Cab Pickup ( aka Telephone Booth) with Willy’s Jeep 4X4 drive train. I bought this as a project several years ago but have now realized I will never finish it. The first picture is from when I bought the truck.

This truck is all original Henry Ford Steel except for the firewall and lower cowl panels which were replaced because they had been cut with a torch. I have removed the original gas tank to make room under the dash. There is NO rust on the body, fenders, doors, or bed. The fenders are clean with no cracks, dents, or splits, as are the doors and pickup bed. Running boards are rust free. There are 2 interconnected fuel tanks installed over the rear axle.

The engine is a 350 cu.in from a ’68 Camaro according to the block casting #’s. Rebuild .30 over with a mild Pro Comp Street cam, camel hump heads with 1.94 Intake and 1.5 inch exhaust valves, Edelbrock intake, and 4 bbl. carb. Custom exhaust manifolds.

Transmission is a rebuilt T-90 3 speed. Transfer case is a rebuilt Dana T-18. Rear end is rebuilt with 3.73 gears. I have the gear set to rebuild the front dif from stock Willys 5.38 to 3.73. New drive shafts front and rear.

The pictures speak for themselves. There are lots of new, still in the box, parts including Griffin radiator, Chrome radiator grill, wiring harness, VDO gauges, seat, Ididit tilt steering column, custom steering wheel, new power brake / clutch master cylinder set, New chrome alternator, electric fuel pump, headlight halogen inserts, new tail lights, steel floor panels, 4 brand new tires, etc.

All old parts were bagged and labeled. I’ve have over $20k in this project.

Brought from California and showing a CA DMV Serial #. I have a clear Colorado title showing this truck registered as a 1928 Ford Model A pickup.

The reserve is well below my investment cost. Please don’t waste my time with low ball offers.

Thanks for looking. Happy bidding.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.

2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]

Sat, 28 Jun 2014

When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
