This Model A, or Delilah as my kids call her, has been lovingly garage kept since we purchased her six or seven years ago. In that time we wired her correctly so she runs.  We were, most recently, in the process of adjusting the brakes when the decision was made to send her to a new home. 

Delilah is a great start for anyone wanting to finish a restoration or build a hot rod.  The firewall that was installed was to match the original four cylinder engine and has a new set of keys/ignition.  The doors need some adjusting to shut smoothly and the shocks need to be hooked up.  We added a glass bowl filter on the firewall and new fuel plumbing to the carb.The gas tank has been cleaned and filled with gas... no leaks anywhere as long as you keep the new shut off valves in the right position.  Gravity fed fuel was a new learn for us.  The tires have new tubes in them from and the 21 inch rims have been sanded as we were prepping for a paint job.

The body is solid with a couple of spots on the back around the spare tire.  Delilah is a 6 volt system and light bulbs will need to be purchased.  We have installed new throttle/choke rods from the steering wheel.  She comes with disconnected front bumper and cab visor.  The rear glass and front glass are perfect with the drivers and passengers window mechanisms needing attention. With that said she has been in garage for the past seven years and before that she was stored in a barn in Montana, as we are technically the second owner as we bought it from the grandson of the original owner upon his death.  The roof lining, both inside and out is solid and the door panels are not original to the car but have been done up to match the roof liner.


Thank you for looking at our car and we hope that the next person will get Delilah out on the road as we have been unable to.  Good luck and happy bidding.  The starting bid is the reserve so high bid takes her home. This car is not on sale locally as I hate dealing with that scenario when I buy.

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here.

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Donald Trump takes a shot at Ford's outsourcing practices in his most recent visit to Michigan. Autoblog's Mylencia Gillenwaters reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Donald Trump takes a shot at Ford's outsourcing practices in his most recent visit to Michigan. I'm Mylencia Gillenwaters and this is your Autoblog Minute. Presidential hopeful Donald Trump visited Birch Run, Michigan for a rally, and amidst talk of immigration and international trade, the GOP front runner discussed Ford's plan to build a manufacturing plant in Mexico: [00:00:30] [WXYZ NEWS CLIP] Autoblog reached out to Ford for comment. The Dearborn-based automaker offered this statement in response: "We are committed to leveraging our global manufacturing footprint and will continue to invest where it makes the best sense for our business. We are proud that we have invested $6.2 billion in our U.S. plants since 2011 and hired nearly 25,000 U.S. employees. [00:01:00] Overall, 80 percent of our North American investment annually is in the U.S., and 97 percent of our North American engineering is conducted in the U.S." As automakers compete in an increasingly global marketplace, debate around outsourcing is sure to remain a hot political topic.
