1931 Model A Ford Roadster on 2040-cars
Hawkins, Texas, United States
|
1931 Model "A" Roadster with rumble seat & twin fender mounted spares. The body is a new Brookville replica made from steel, no fiberglass anywhere. All fenders, aprons, running boards, rumble lid and aprons are new reproduction. The only original body part is the gas tank which was vatted and coated. There is no old metal in the car. No filler or patches..... the chassis was stripped, blasted and painted. Every nut and bolts was restored and/or rebuilt to like new condition. I built this car for myself and wanted it to be completely trustworthy for touring but health issues have arisen and the car needs a new home. The engine has a complete rebuild, new babbitt and all internal parts. It runs perfectly. It is all stock except for a 3:54 ring & pinion higher speed rearend ratio. Still 6 volt with a generator. The entire brake system was rebuilt with new parts. It stops great. New L/B top and interior + rumble seat area. All the seat spring are new as well. The paint is single stage PPG. New WWW tires and new tubes. The wind-wings are deep cut & polished etching. I have driven the car 240 miles and it purrs. No problems. It is ready for the open road. It has a tool box in front and on the rear. It is as solid as any you will ever find. I have restored a lot of Model A's and won the Dallas MAFC Car of the Year Award in 2004 for a restored Cabriolet. This car would be another strong contender in that event as well. If you are looking for a really good car to drive, this is sure worth a close look. I will send photos, videos and answer your questions honestly. Check my feedback over the past 15 years. Every buyer has said nice things and many still communicate or send Christmas cards. Clear Title. Make a reasonable offer. I don't hear well so if I miss your ring I will sure call back. 903-360-7116.
The small car is a 6 volt electric Power Wheel model that can be driven by a small child or towed with the tow-bar in parades. The car and charger are free to the buyer if desired. Grandkids love the small car and at parades and car shows it is the main attraction. |

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey
Wed, 05 Feb 2014According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP
Thu, Aug 6 2015Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.
Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva
Sun, 24 Feb 2013We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
