Sorry to be this way but lately there has been a rash low feedback bidders bidding, winning the auction and then not following through with the sale. We take our auctions seriously and just want you to do the same. This auction is for a 1930 Ford Model A Coupe. All Henry Ford steel. This car had the same owner for the past 48 years. We are proud to offer this wonderful piece of history. The car started life in the state of Wyoming.It was then sold to another gentleman in Wyoming who then sold to the prior owner here in Maine who has owned it up until last week. He had the car painted at that time , installed 1936 wire wheels and tires and has been like this since then. He put the car up in 2010 .Oil was full and antifreeze was still nice and green. A new battery was installed , fresh fuel and it fired right up. Motor runs whisper quiet. Transmission shifts great. Drove it up the road and back and it actually drives quite nice for an 84 year old car. No pulling , chattering or wobbeling. Steering is nice and tight . The body is in amazeing condition. Absolutely rust free and without repairs. The sills are like brand new. The trunk, pans, and wheel tubs are beautiful. Doors open and close perfect and fit like a glove.Windows roll up and down fine. Windshield cranks out. All the fenders are in great shape. I see on the drivers front fender a tiny crack on the bead. The hood does have a few waves on the drivers side section . All the lights and electricals work . Interior is in good usable shape. Headliner is all intact. Paint has dulled down over the years but I think the car looks amazeing just the way it is. You will notice in the pics the horn is missing. It had a Chevrolet horn on it and it was taken off.I will include it . Also had a radio installed but was removed and will be included. I have all 5 original 19 inch wheels that will be included also. There are all kinds of directions you can go with this car .Personally I would leave it the way it is drive and enjoy it. Of course that is up to the new owner. We will have a Maine registration and proper dealer transfer forms for a smooth transaction.

Ford dominates most-stolen SUV list
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
The Ford Escape leads the NICB's list with 1,421 examples stolen.
If you drive a recent Ford SUV or crossover, you may want to keep a watchful eye out for thieves - especially if you live in the New York metro area or in Detroit. A new study from the National Insurance Crime Bureau has named three Ford models as the most likely vehicles in their genre to be stolen, with CUVs in general being especially attractive to bandits.
Ford celebrates 1 millionth Mustang built at Flat Rock
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Yesterday, the Ford Mustang turned 49 years old, and Ford didn't miss the opportunity to celebrate the one millionth version of the Mustang rolling off the assembly line at the Flat Rock Assembly plant. Production of the Mustang at Flat Rock coincided with the fifth-generation design launching in 2004, and the one millionth car was the car shown above, a 2014 GT convertible painted in Ruby Red.
In total, Ford has sold more than 8.5 million Mustangs since the original car went on sale, but some of the key milestones over the car's nine years at Flat Rock include the Shelby GT-H, Bullitt, Boss 302 and, of course, the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500. Scroll down for a press release celebrating Flat Rock's milestone Mustang.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
