1929 Ford Station Wagon- The forerunner of today's SUV- This Woodie was lovingly restored by an older gentleman and his friends from the Model A Club. It has all new mechanics, including a completely rebuilt engine. The wheels and many other items were powder coated to resist rust. It retains all the original 3 rows of seating, and the upholstery and top fabric has been done by LeBaron-Bonney Company. It is original Model A except for an alternator, seat belts, and signal lights. Oh, and a CB radio for events with the club. The restoration has been done for about 12 years and there is some wear from normal use. The pictures were taken right out of winter storage, and it will shine up nicely with a good wash. The custom made side curtains are authentic and store under the body in the factory sealed metal storage box. These are a must for those damp nights and chilly mornings. It has correct rain gutters, an accessory clock mirror and a Boyce Motor-meter to dress up the radiator. Also included is the original generator, a stainless steel gravel guard for the radiator, a jack, crank handle, engine splash pans, and another powder coated wheel and black wall tire.
This is a great car for family bonding, touring and conversation. It gets a lot of attention wherever it goes, and we reminisce of the good old days. I am classifying it as an above average driver. It is not a fresh restored car, but slightly used. I have chosen a fixed price auction and set a price that is very reasonable. It is an affordable classic woody that will only appreciate in value, but the experience is priceless. Please call with any questions Greg (860) 913-4680

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
