I have a 1930 Ford Model A Coupe for sale. 

It has been chopped, including the windshield, back window and quarter windows,
the garnish moldings were also chopped.

It is on a Model A frame with a 4" step in the rear, stock rear crossmember, and stock front crossmember, but it has been trimmed to fit a V8. The original center crossmember is not in
the frame.

It has a really nice Model A rear axle, with a Model T spring, including the torque tube and radius rods. The gear ratio is 3:78.
There are later brake drums and hubs but no backing plates or hardware.

It has an Original Model A Ford front axle that was dropped about 4", with 1942-48 Ford spindles,
that have been bent to mount the shortened tie rod. It has a 1928-32 reverse eye front spring, longer perches with lower shock mounts. There are later hydraulic brake drums, but no backing plates or hardware.

The front axle is mounted with 1937-40 Ford wishbones that have been split and chromed long ago.
The brackets where the wishbones mount to the frame are only tack welded, so final location can be 
determined by next owner.

It has Ford 16" rims, with some old hot rod firestone tires. 750-16 rears and 550-16 fronts

It has original 1950 Pontiac Tail lights.

It has a three piece hood of unknown origin. I have been told it is a 1931 Chevy Truck hood, but I can't confirm that.

It has a 1932 Ford 4 cylinder radiator.
And a 1932 Ford pick-up grill shell.

It has what appears to be a 1931 Chevy dash, with some vintage gauges made to fit, and some missing.

I will include a 1948-52 Ford F1 truck crossmember and pedals, which will make mounting hydraulic brakes easier.

The body does have some rust around the bottom, but comes with two patch panels for the rear quarter panels.

It also comes with another back panel for below the deckled.

There is a bench seat in the car, but I don't think it is stock, and it would probably need to be recovered.

The sub rails were cut out from behind the seat to the back of the body, but the section that is there from
the seat back to the fire wall it pretty good. Seat pan and frame are good. 

Looks like newer wood in the roof, the top was filled long ago with a sheet of galvanized sheet metal.

Doors open and close nicely. There are no hinges on the deck lid, but there are rumble seat brackets on the body.
I will include the hinges for the deck lid to be a rumble seat.

It will take a fair amount of work to get this on the road, but if you want to build an old hot rod this is a very good start.

If you put in a flat head V8, and 39 style transmission it would bolt right up to the rear axle, and bolt into the
F1 crossmember I have included.

I could even include Vern Tardel's book on How to Build a Traditional Hot Rod, if you want it?

If you want a painted finished car, this will take a lot of work.

But if you want a car that looks like it just got drug out of a field, this is it.

Car is sold as is where is, no title, only bill of sale. 
I cannot find any vin numbers on the frame, there may be some on there, but I don't see them.

Buyer is responsible for pick up or delivery by hauler of your choice, all cost to be paid by buyer.

This car is also for sale locally, and if it sells locally, the auction will be cancelled, since the item will no longer
be available.

Entry-level F-150 now offers SuperCrew, Sport Package

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

Ford has made a few notable tweaks to the lower end of its F-150 lineup, giving customers a more affordable version of the four-door SuperCrew body style. The popular SuperCrew could previously only be had on XLT models and above, but Ford has announced that 2014 F-150s with the base STX trim can get the more versatile body.
The STX SuperCrew brings the price of a four-door F-150 down from $34,525 to $33,145. Like the XLT SuperCrew, the STX will be available with the choice of a 5.5- or 6.5-foot bed, while a 5.0-liter V8 can replace the base 3.7-liter V6 for $4,425. Ford has not released pricing on the different bed lengths yet, but opting for the 6.5-foot bed on the XLT raises the price $1,240 and forces buyers into the 5.0-liter V8. We'd expect a similar arrangement on the STX.
The other big news for fans of affordable pickups is the addition of an STX Sport Package on the base-level truck. It adds 20-inch wheels, black exterior accents, black-and-gray cloth seats and decals on the truck's box. The Sport Package is available on all three of the STX's body styles, with Ford listing the price as $980 with current discounts.

GM's Reuss predicts 2016 Chevy Camaro will outperform Ford Mustang in every way

Tue, Apr 7 2015

We aren't going to be seeing the next-generation Chevrolet Camaro until next month. But even though we know when we're going to see the new muscle car, it's totally unclear whether Chevy will dole out technical details. That means we can't answer the latest version of the age-old question: Camaro or Ford Mustang? Not surprisingly, General Motors North America President Mark Reuss has already stated his position, saying he was "very confident" that the sixth-generation Camaro will be faster, more agile and more efficient than the Ford. Reuss made his comments after saying he drove the new Camaro back-to-back with the Mustang the week prior. Reuss' statement came in a conversation with Fox News about the 2016 Camaro where he elaborated on the car's weight shedding and how it fit into GM's strategy on other new models. "There are some really cool things in the Camaro, that are quite different than the Malibu, [and] CT6," Reuss told Fox. As we reported previously, the Camaro will shed some 200 pounds by switching to aluminum and other lightweight composites for some of its components. With May 16 just over a month away, here's hoping Reuss decides to loose some other details on the next Camaro ahead of its debut. Related Video:
