Up for auction is this very nice 2 door sedan. This car is my current driving toy, so the miles stated will go up slightly until auctions end. The car has a solid body with no rust or dens with no patch panels or bondo present. It does have a few scratches here & there, but nothing major. It has a new vinyl top. The engine was rebuilt 10 years ago. There have not been many miles since the rebuild. The engine starts easily each time, idles good & smooth and does not puff smoke - even during start up. The spark advance & throttle levers both work as they should. The car has 4 new 19" firestones that were just put on. The "wide whites" look very sharp against the red wheels and black body. THe rims are painted and in nice shape. The brakes are new and adjusted good. The car stops amazingly well. The glass is all good with the only crack in the passenger's rear window. The windows roll up & down good. THe doors shut nice. The interior is new including the headliner, door panels, seats and kick panels. It looks very nice when you look i nside the car. The guages work, along with the headlights & taillights. Blow the 'aoogha' horn and watch them smile. People really appreciate seeing these old cars out driving around. So, there you have it, a great starting, running, safe with good brakes, good handling car. This could be the one for you. There are no known issues with this car. You can drive it as soon as you recieve it with no worries. I've been driving this car 3-4 times a week and has not acted up in any way. It is a very dependable, excellent driver and is very 'tight' without any rattling or squeaking anywhere. It does have a hitch on the back for pulling a trailor. You could remove the hitch if you don't like the looks of it. Don't miss out on this fairly priced Model A at $8200.00 buy it now. Please email for phone number to discuss this car. If you have any questions or concerns please please ask early and before the end of the auction. I am always happy to discuss this car and old cars in general. Bid with confidence. This car would be excellent for parades and advertising. I have just changed the oil too. It will come with new rain gutters which will need to be screwed on above the doors.

Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.
Ford family keeps special voting rights
Fri, 10 May 2013Ford Motor Company has a dual-class stock structure of Class A and Class B shares. The roughly three billion Class A shares are for the general public like you and me, while the roughly 71 million Class B shares are all owned by the Ford family. Each Class A share gets the shareholder one vote, each Class B share is worth 16 votes, the result being that Common Stock holders control about 60 percent of the company while the Ford family controls 40 percent even though it holds far fewer shares. The only way that could ever change would be if the Fords sell their Class B shares, but even so, Class B shares revert to Class A when sold outside the family, so they'd have to sell a whole bunch of them.
A contingent of Class A shareholders think the dual-class system is unfair, and for the past few years a vote's been held during the annual shareholders meeting to end it. It has failed every time, as it just did again during the meeting held this week. A smidge over 33 percent voted to end the dual system, outvoted by the 67 percent who are happy with the way Ford is going - unsurprising in view of a corporate turnaround that will be part of business-class curricula for years to come.
On the sidelines, Ford elected Ellen R. Marram to the post of independent director, the first woman to hold the job. The former Tropicana CEO and 20-year Ford board member replaces retiring board member Irvine Hockaday who helped bring Alan Mulally to the CEO position.
Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.
