The entire life of the car has been in Wisconsin and I am the third owner. I purchased the sport coupe on October 8, 2004 from a local woman after the death of her husband. The car had been restored in the late 1990's. Recently, the original license plates were found by the widow and are included. The restoration included a LeBaron Bonney interior and top, fabric rumble seat and body repainting using the original Copra Drab DDL 440 color and black fenders. Several veteran members of the local Model A Club knew of the car and quality of restoration. The sport coupe is authentic (excluding the luggage rack) including the early 1928 red steering wheel, nickel plating of the radiator shell and headlights. The engine is original. The car went through a complete rework (including necessary part replacement) procedure which was done by the president of the Model A Club during the remainder of October 2004. Available on request is a five page analysis of the codition of the car at purchase and the new related rework including listing of all parts. Major items include: carburetor, door hardware and glass, electrical systems, manifold gasket, exhaust system, spark plugs, hoses, speedometer, water pump, fan belt, distributor, painting of engine, rewiring of instrument panel, kingpin, rear axle grease seals. Additional work after 2004 includes: 2006 - new brake work including brake shoes, reface of brake drums, new front and rear roller pin and floater. 2007 - replacement of 7 tooth steering box, shaft and new spines. 2009 - new battery and replacement of generator (which is available if requested) with alternator. 2010 - new spindle bolt set. 2012 - new front outer bearing. The speedometer was not functioning when I purchased the car in 2004. New speedometer installed in 2004 has 4300 miles on the odometer. Included is a notebook of all service records and invoices of all work from 2004-2013. The car has been unique to the Model A Club which includes only three sport coupes. It has been a fun car to enjoy as it received many compliments and attracted many photographers. It represents an aesthetically simplistic appealing period of automotive history. Age and a hip replacement has prevented me from driving, so it is time to let someone else enjoy the experience, pride and joy of ownership.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.

Ford Escort testing, may be bound for Europe

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

There has been little news about Ford's China-focused Escort concept since debuting at last year's Shanghai Motor Show, but the no-frills sedan has shown its camouflaged face again during cold weather testing in Northern Sweden. While far from a guarantee, the test location might hint that the Blue Oval plans to market the car outside of Asia.
The Escort's black robe and zebra paint make it hard to tell if anything specific has changed about the design, but the shape of the sedan looks close to what was shown in Shanghai. Under the disguise, you can still make out the hexagonal front grille from the concept. When Ford announced the model, the company said that the design wasn't supposed to be "arrogant or pretentious," and it certainly achieved that. The engine range is still a mystery, but it seems safe to expect small, economy-focused powertrains.
A report from last year indicated that Ford may be considering broadening the new Escort beyond Asia and possibly even selling it in Europe. The fact that the company brought it to Sweden for testing could bolster that argument. A release date hasn't been set yet, but the automaker has promised 15 new products for China by 2015. The basic sedan could be on the road soon.
