This truck was restored by the restoration shop that produced two Fine Point vehicles that won The Henry twice in MARC and First Place in MAFCA National events. It was restored in the same shop, using the same equipment, methods, jigs and fixtures that were used to produce those two award winning vehicles. It has a professional paint job of very high quality. It has aver 95% original hardware, original sheet metal, hood and fenders, etc. The rear fenders and custom stake bed were made from drawings accumulated from the Benson Ford Research Center in Greenfield Village in Detroit, Michigan. We have an addition Model A Tudor that we use for driving on tours, and this has just been in a temperature controlled garage for most of it's existance. It is a GORGEOUS truck in EXCELLANT condition. It has never been more than 8 miles from home. It has less than 300 miles in three years. The motor has been completely rebuilt with a mild high compression head, and the transmission and shift tower have been professionally restored. It has completely new brakes and the rear end has been completely gone thru and completely restored. The gearshift and emergency brake have been properly butler nickel plated. The truck is equipped with two tail lights and turn signals that sound when flashing, and it has a third brake light mounted at the front of the bed. The tail gate an all the stake sides are removable. I built it for my wife to carry hay and items around the farm, but she is fearfull of scratching the 'new' truck. I have been involved more and more with metal shaping and am currently building an aluminum bodied Model A speedster and that is requiring additional types of equipment, and that is the reason for the sale. I am also looking for motor components for a 1928 20 HP Rolls Royce boat tail speedster engine. Any leads would be appreciated. A NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours of the auction closing, and the balance in 7-days in either cash or preferably a bank wire transfer. NO THIRD PARTY BS or equivalant. I am not interested in shipping, and this vehicle needs to be picked up within 10 days from the conclusion of the auction/sale. I HAVE THIS VEHICLE LISTED LOCALLY, AND CLAIM THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY!

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene

Tue, 13 May 2014

Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.

Ford issues six recalls covering 101,000 vehicles for multiple issues

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Ford is announcing six separate recalls for a variety of issues affecting a dozen models and a total of 100,610 vehicles in North America. However, according to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker, "None of them have caused accidents or injuries." Half of them cover fewer than 1,000 cars.
The largest recall covers 92,022 North American examples (about 83,250 in the US) of some models of the Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, Ford Interceptor, Flex and Lincoln MKT from the 2013 and 2014 model years; the 2012-2014 Edge and the 2014 Lincoln MKX. All of them have a potential issue with the halfshaft on the right side that might not be fully seated and could move outward over time. If it shifts too far, the models may no longer be able to drive, and the condition could also allow the vehicles to roll away, even when in Park. Dealers will inspect the shaft to make sure it's seated and will replace the part if necessary.
The next-largest recall covers 5,264 North American examples (4,867 in the US) of the Ford F59 Commercial Stripped Chassis from the 2011-2014 model years. It's possible that an electrical junction box can corrode in areas with salty roads and short circuit. The problem could potentially cause a fire. Dealers will replace the box with an improved design.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.
