This is a beautiful 1928 Ford Model A, Tudor Sedan. The car has been garage kept since restoration began 30 years ago. There is NO RUST on this car anywhere. The doors are straight, and close and open fully. Pretty much a top to bottom restoration including but not limited to: New tires, and a spare on the back, newly painted rims, new floor boards, new blue/black paint scheme, new roof, new upholstery, interior insulation installed, newly restored Zenith Carb, engine has been rebuilt and runs beautifully, no smoke at all. All lights, including brake light work. Has been updated to a hydraulic brake system which works great! All windows roll all the way down and up with no problem at all, Brand new battery as of 10/2012. Of course there are a couple dings on the fenders but nothing serious.


A few things to finish the car off: The seats have been reupholstered however the headliner, door panels, and rear panels have not yet been upholstered. The transmission shifts fine, and drives fine...but 1st gear is quite noisy, and 2nd gear is a little noisy. 3rd is as quiet as ever. Also has an "auto-lite" heater, which works very well! 

**Also - The car currently has a AA engine. This was an engine originally used just for commercial trucks. I believe it is a 30' engine. Serial is AA437217

A couple important things you need to know: The two biggest problems with the car mechanically are: The car seems to wobble, or shimmy left and right when driving more than 10 mph or so. Also the steering wheel has a bit of play. I am not sure how to fix this, but for the right person I bet it is not that difficult. I drove the car quite a bit last fall with no problems at all. This year, the problems started and therefor have not driven it much.

This is not a show car, as the paint and upholstery, as well as a few other things are not original...HOWEVER this would be a great car for someone that is mechanical and can fix the minor issues the car currently has. It is great for a drive around town. Starts every time with no problem at all!

I have described this to the best of my ability, I strongly advise you to ask any question you may have! I will get back to you ASAP. Also, please come and take it for a test drive if you are serious! Car is located about 45min west of Chicago in Wheaton, Il.

Thanks for looking!

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.

180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains

Wed, 21 May 2014

If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
