1930 Model A Standard Rumble Seat Roadster Original Never Restored on 2040-cars
Elmira, New York, United States
|
You are bidding on a 1930 Model A Ford Rumble Seat Standard Roadster. This is a well maintained, original, never restored Model A that has had only three owners and has been owned by the same person for 65 years. This car was given to the grandson of the original owner who traded it in to Clute Motors, then at 118 W. Church St. in Elmira, NY toward a new 1949 Ford Sedan. The present owner was a salesman for Clute Motors at that time. He purchased the then 19 year old car and has owned it ever since. So this is the SECOND time this car has ever been for sale to the general public, the first time being when it was new in 1930, amazing! The owner in a letter to his Grandson states that the car was in good condition at that time. He had it painted in 1954 when it was 24 years old. Since that time it was well maintained by the Lincoln Mercury dealership that was owned by the owner of the car. Sometime in the past 14 years the wheels were repainted and new tires were installed, a Lebaron Bonney seat kit and a new top was purchased. The seat kit was installed but the top was not installed. The new top still in the box comes with the car. The rumble seat is original. The owner passed away in 2010, his estate still owns the car and it is currently New York State registered to his son. All transferable paper work is in order. This car has been well maintained, it starts, runs and drives as it should. This car gets lots of attention because of its survivor status. If you like unrestored, driveable, survivor cars you will love this car. It has been garaged and never driven in the winter since 1949!! I am listing this car for the family. Please feel free to email me with ANY questions. I am a life long car collector and have sold a number of collector cars on ebay. |

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

Hyundai, BMW and Ford win Concept Vehicle of the Year awards
Sat, 06 Jul 2013More than two dozen jurors started with a pool of 23 concept cars introduced at the most recent Los Angeles, Detroit, Chicago, Toronto and New York auto shows, then pared it down to three winners in three categories for the twelfth annual North American Concept Vehicle of the Year Awards. The trophy-bearers are said to be those "vehicles most likely to shape the future of the automobile industry," and lead their classes in the Concept Car, Concept Truck and Production Preview divisions.
Hyundai had two cars as finalists for the Concept Car category, the competition boiled down to the Hyundai HCD-14 Genesis concept, Veloster C3 Roll Top, Honda EV-STER and the Toyota Corolla Furia. It won with the HCD-14 Genesis that was introduced at the Detroit Auto Show, a sharp sedan that sharply divided opinion between those who thought it was too much, those who thought it was too much Audi A7, and those who thought it was perfect. The award panel's judges, however, thought so much of it that it's got two awards in one sitting, not only taking concept car honors, but because it earned the highest overall score in the competition it also takes the crown for Most Significant Concept Vehicle of 2013.
The final selection in the Concept Truck category was down to the Ford Atlas, Kia Cross GT, Nissan Resonance and Volkswagen Cross Blue. The Ford Atlas took the silverware, after also winning the Eyes on Design award - shared with the Nissan Resonance - at the Detroit Auto Show where it was introduced.
