You are bidding on a beautiful, professionally restored 1929 4 door Model A Ford with dual side mounts. It has the correct two tone paint of Bonnie Green and French Gray. To make sure there were no issues with the A prior to a sale, it has been thoroughly inspected, and changes made, by a well-known Connecticut Model A mechanic. All suspension parts have been replaced( such as tie rods, bushings, spindle arm, etc), brake shoes/lines replaced and it rides and tracks like a new A. This is very costly, and avoided by most owners of A's, which is why they bounce all over the road and have such a rough ride. This A is smooth riding.

It has working turn signals and utilizes the correct version of the front side mounted lights for the front signals. The A has been converted to hydraulic brakes and now stops like a more modern car.

The dual mounted side mounts provide a level of elegance that others do not. Tires are new and there are no air leaks. There is a small wear mark on the drivers seat from getting in and out. Easy fix.

A safety fuse has been installed in the event there is ever a electrical short. I never have had a problem but is a good safety feature.

This is a wonderful version of the Ford Model A and only needs a new owner. The 4 door is the most versatile A as you can have your friends in the back as you ride in the front with your significant other.

I will gladly answer any questions. I am open to reasonable offers if the transaction can be concluded quickly. It is for sale locally.

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update

Fri, May 19 2017

Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android

Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.
