1930 FORD MODEL A

For Sale is my friend's 1930 Ford Model A, 2 Dr. 5 Window Coupe with the Rumble Seat. Bob, the owner, is getting up in age and the car is just a little too much for him to drive anymore. As second owner, Bob has maintained and cherished this car since he has owned it.

The car went through a complete nut and bolt restoration 2002. The engine, transmission and rear end was completely taken apart and rebuilt to factory specs. The exterior was painted it's original Andalusite Blue with Black fenders and trim. The car only has a few thousand miles on it since the restoration. Every original body panel was removed and painted separately. There was no rust or bondo repairs made to the car. It is a very solid, rust free vehicle. The paint finish is very nice. No major chips, dings or dents anywhere on this car. The undercarriage was also detailed and looks as good as the exterior. The frame was completely media blasted and painted.

Mechanically, everything works except for the wiper motor. The brakes are fairly new and work very well. The engine fires right up and idles nicely. The transmission shifts like new. The tires are at 80% wear except for one tire which is about 30% wear remaining.

The interior is like new. It was finished with LeBaron Bonney fabric that looks authentic and new. No rips or tears or even wear marks. The headliner and door panels are also like new.

I'm starting the bidding at $10K but I have a very low reserve on the car. It's worth much more than that but the owner says it's time to sell it. If you have questions, please call me at 574-965-4550 or email me at: kenprieboy@comcast.net. Thanks for looking and bidding!.......Ken

Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.

Ford begins testing right-hand-drive Mustang

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

Ford has officially kicked off testing of the right-hand-drive variant of its sixth-generation, 2015 Mustang, according to a statement issued by the company, which came with the above photo.
According to Ford, this will mark the first time a right-hand-drive 'Stang has traveled down the company's assembly line alongside its LHD brethren. It is far from the first of the legendary pony cars to feature its wheel on the wrong side, though, as converters in RHD markets across the globe have been making swaps for years.
Ford is planning on using the white, droptop Mustang for RHD development ahead of the car's arrival in the UK, Australia and South Africa, among other markets. Scroll down for the official press blast.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
