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. |

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
2018 Ford F-150 Powerstroke vs. 2018 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel: comparing the specs
Mon, Jan 8 2018Now that Ford has finally released specifications for its diesel Ford F-150, we can finally see how it stacks up against its sole competition, the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. Naturally, since we haven't driven the new diesel F-150, we can't tell you which is better on the road, but there are interesting things we can glean from the numbers. Compare these and other potential new vehicle purchases using our tool. For one thing, the two trucks are extremely similar from a powertrain perspective. Both trucks use a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 diesel, with the Ford using a 10-speed automatic, and the Ram using an 8-speed automatic. The Powerstroke engine is built in the U.K. but specifically tuned by Ford for American pickup truck duty. It is also is related to the diesel V6 used by Jaguar and Land Rover. The Ram 1500's engine is made by VM Motori. Only 10 horsepower and 20 pound-feet of torque separate the two, with the Ford getting the slight advantage. The Ford also produces its horsepower and torque slightly sooner than the Ram. Peak power in the Ford comes at 3,250 rpm compared to 3,600 rpm in the Ram, and peak torque arrives at 1,750 rpm in the Ford, and 2,000 rpm in the Ram. View 9 Photos More significant differences become apparent in the payload and towing area, both of which put the Ford at an advantage. The F-150 Powerstroke can carry 2,020 pounds of cargo, or tow 11,400 pounds. The Ram EcoDiesel, depending on configuration, can carry 1,100 to 1,600 pounds of cargo, and tow between 7,560 and 9,210 pounds. Fuel economy might go to the Ford if it hits the company's target of 30 mpg highway. That would beat the Ram's 27 mpg highway. We don't know what Ford's target city mpg is, but the Ram manages 20 in town with two-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive drops the city rating to 19 mpg. View 6 Photos The biggest decider between the trucks might be cost. Ford is only offering its diesel engine on higher end trims, which means that the cheapest diesel F-150 starts at $46,315. That's for a two-wheel drive Lariat extended cab with a 6.5-foot bed. Ram on the other hand, offers the diesel in everything from its ultra-bare-bones Tradesman pickup, allowing for a base price of just $28,585, up to the fancy Laramie Longhorn and Limited trims. Ram's diesel is also available with all cab variants, while Ford's is only offered in extended- and double-cab body styles.
