Up for auction is a nice 1931 Ford Model A Tudor. I am listing this for a customer. This has a Fuel Injected Ford 302 with the automatic trans and overdrive so it is something you can just get in and go. Plus with the 4 seats you can take your family with you to shows, cruises, or just to get the groceries. This is a nice driver with tons of aftermarket parts. The car was built roughly 6 years ago and it has only had 5000 miles put on it since finished. Car is fun and smooth to drive for it being an old car. I liked the car a lot since it wasn't chopped and it is all steel.

Here is a list of some of the parts that are on the car.

Chassis / Suspension:

The frame is a made by TCI with 4 link rear suspension and adjustable coilovers. The front also has the 4 bar setup with a Super Bell 4'' Drop axle with a disc brake conversion and braided brake hoses. The rear axle is a Ford 9'' with the drum brakes. The car does have power brakes and rack and pinion steering which makes it nice to drive. Both front and rear suspensions have a hardpan bar to hold everything in place aswell. Fuel pump on passenger inner frame rail. Battery box is under the passenger floor area with a NEW battery. 

Motor / Transmission:

The motor is a 1987 Ford Fuel Injected 302. The trans is automatic with overdrive. The engine is pretty much stock other then some minor bolt ons. Chrome 1 wire altinator, Belden 8mm plug wires, billet valve covers, polished intake and air cleaner. As for the exhaust it has the block style hugger headers to dual exhaust, new mufflers then exits out the rear of the car with silverline chrome tips. The car sounds nice but it is pretty quite for all around driving. Also under the hood is a 3 core aluminum radiator with a electric puller fan. This car can run all day and it will stay at 190 degrees.

Interior:

The interior was just redone this fall. The front bucket seats are very comfortable for nice road trips. The column is early 90's GM with tilt. The gauges are all white faced and made by Dolphin. There is a JVC CD built into the roof of the car as well as Jensen 6'' speakers front and rear. The passenger seat slides forward and folds to make it easy for another couple or kids to access. The front windshield can be opened for a nice breeze. The door glass and the rear side glass also rolls down. Some of the other little features are the Lokar gas pedal, tall shifter, main power kill switch under the seat, and billet steering wheel.

Exterior:

The exterior of the car is in real nice shape since it was originally from the southern US. The body is in nice shape with no rust. The running boards and fenders are original and steel. The paint job is a 6 out of 10 due to the fact that it has some orange peel to it, minor stone chips, and some sand marks here and there. The car is a really nice driver. The paint is called Raspberry Burgandy. The color is a little on the pink side but still looks nice in the sun. The tail lights are LED and the headlights are bright. The rims are American Racing. Front tires are 205/65R15 with 90% tread, rears are 265/75R15 with 90% tread. Some other features are the roof has been filled and they did a nice job with a few ribs in it. Chrome rock gaurd on the grill, real authentic Ford radiatior cap. Original visor, chrome mirrors, chrome turn signals, chrome step plates, chrome tail light brackets, hidden gas cap on drivers rear corner, chrome hood hinges, and stainless bolts throughout.

Like I said this has been a good car but I just don't have the time to enjoy it anymore. I would rather see someone else enjoy it then it sit in the garage.

I will help as much as I can with shipping but the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and getting a shipper.

I live roughly 45 west of Detroit Metro Airport. If you wanted to fly in and drive it home then I can pick you up from the airport.

I also have the car for sale locally.

There is a $1000 deposit due with paypal within 24 hours of the auction ending. 

If you have any questions feel free to call Bill at 1-734-475-9774.

Thanks for looking.

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.

2014 Ford F-150 Tremor adds some sport to shake things up

Thu, 27 Jun 2013

Like most quakes, the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor caught us by surprise. We weren't expecting Ford to offer up another version of its best-seller so soon before the truck's full redesign, but that's exactly what the company is doing.
While Ford calls the Tremor a "performance truck," the new pickup doesn't play on the same level as the SVT Raptor does on dirt, or even the long-gone SVT Lightning did on pavement. Think of it as a parts bin sport truck that probably does a better job looking the part than acting it. The Tremor utilizes the same twin-turbo, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 available across the F-150 lineup, producing 365 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, but matches it with a 4.10 rear axle - the shortest final drive ratio you can get in an F-150 - for the strongest possible acceleration.
The Tremor does do a decent job looking the part. Available only in short-wheelbase, regular cab configuration with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, it struts around wearing the F-150's FX Appearance Package, flat black accents, 20-inch black wheels, HID headlights and a special exterior graphics package. The Tremor is the only regular cab F-150 with a flow-through center console, which means it also gets a floor-mounted shifter and bucket seats that are covered in black leather with red piping. Some brushed metal accents and steering wheel with red stitching round out the interior upgrades.

Junkyard Gem: 1993 Mercury Topaz GS Sedan

Sat, Aug 13 2022

As long as the Mercury brand existed — a period spanning the 1939 through 2011 model years — nearly every Mercury sold in the United States was more or less a redecorated Ford model. The Torino had its Montego sibling, the Crown Victoria had the Grand Marquis, the Cougar was based on everything from the Mustang to the Mondeo, and so on. Naturally, when the folks in Dearborn developed the Ford Tempo compact, a Mercury version had to be created. This was the Topaz, with the official launch of both cars taking place on the deck of the aircraft carrier often referred to as the USS Decrepit. You can't make this stuff up! The Tempo/Topaz, also known as the Tempaz, has largely faded from our collective automotive memory by now, since it broke no significant new engineering or styling ground (this story would be much different if Ford had only put the amazing straight-eight "T-Drive" Tempaz powertrain into production) and didn't have any endearing features other than being a cheap domestic competitor to the Toyota Corolla and Nissan Sentra. Still, close to 3 million Tempazes left North American Ford and Lincoln-Mercury showrooms during the 1984-1994 period. As you'd expect, most of these disposable cars disappeared from both the street and the car graveyard long ago. It takes a very special Tempaz for me to break out my camera while I'm patrolling my local wrecking yards; generally, this means an ultra-rare all-wheel-drive version or at least a very early model in super-clean condition. Today's Junkyard Gem is neither, but I took one look at this spectacular Bordello Red crypto-velour-and-slippery-plastic interior and recognized that this was no ordinary junkyard Mercury. It appears that Mercury had dropped the idea of clever names for base-grade seat fabrics by the time of the Topaz, referring to this stuff as just "cloth" in all the brochures I could find. That's too bad, because Mercurys had cool names for upholstery (e.g., Chromatex) in the old days. The interior is in very good condition but the steering wheel shows substantial wear, so I think this is a high-mile Topaz that got meticulous care from its owner or owners. Ford used five-digit odometers on these cars until the end of production, however, so we'll never know if this reading indicates 65,404 miles or 365,404 miles. The body is very straight, but there's some nasty corrosion behind the right front wheelwell.
