 Here is a  all steel Model A coupe body, . these bodies are getting rare, and every year as people are building more hot rods the bodies get harder to find.# some companies are selling 5 window fiberglass replicas for $7600.00. but if you want real steel this is the way to proceed. Deck lid is not shown but goes with the body
HAS been reconstructed by a professional fabricator with 40 yrs of experience, using some parts from Brookville roadster
HAS been sandblasted and painted with etching primer to prevent rust.
if you win I need a 500 dollar deposit by sundown, and Pick up is the responsibility of the buyer. the body shown is not a rumble seat, the rumble seat car has been sold

 WARNING mechanical skills and shopping skills will be required to build a hot rod out of the fine piece of history. parts will be needed, and body work will need to be done, do not purchase unless you possess the vision to build a fine hotrod out of a steel body.......thanks enjoy the hobby

 deck lid and windshield frame appear in the pictures, if we find a ribbed top a filled roof will be added


On Oct-04-13 at 14:45:00 PDT, seller added the following information:

 A lot of questions about the title have already been answered in the Q&A, I am not giving a title for less than the BIN price, its only 750.00 away..... one of you should hit the BIN box and get this auction over , the body is really worth the work done on it, its not just some piece of scrap that was pulled from the junk yard and sandblasted and painted to hid defects.... its an actual usable body for a hot rod. You cannot find this quality at most swap meets,

Malcolm Gladwell reflects on engineering, recalls, and compromise

Thu, Apr 30 2015

Journalist Malcolm Gladwell has made a career taking on big, complicated topics and humanizing them to make the unwieldy understandable. He has already done this in bestsellers like The Tipping Point and Outliers, and now he has brought the same approach to automotive recalls in a long piece for The New Yorker. The article titled The Engineer's Lament is framed around an interview with the former head of Ford's recall office about the famous Ford Pinto campaign where the position of the compact's fuel tank could cause it to explode in rear-end collisions. Plus, there are detours into Toyota's unintended acceleration cases and the General Motors ignition switch problem. While all the history is illuminating, the heart of the story comes from an examination at the thought process of engineers, and how their thinking differs from other professions. Gladwell comes off as sympathetic to auto engineers in this piece. While he admits that they often approach problems in a sterile way, the writer doesn't try point that out as a failing. It's merely a fact to be understood. The story itself is quite lengthy, but well worth a read if you have the time for an insiders view into how these recalls are assessed on the inside.

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.
