Clearing the Garage out

Up For Sale is a 1929 Model A Rat Rod car

It isnt a Boyd Cottington example by far, but if you are looking fo a fun little summer machine to scoot around town in this might be the one for you.

It is powered by a Chevy 305 V-8, the engine has had some mild perfomance work done to it and it really runs good.

This car is ver light and when you stomp on the gas the front end will come off the ground, I don't thin k the car will break the sound barrier, but it is kind of a neat trick at the Saturday night "50's" street rod gatherings, if anything.

It has a 400 Automatic transmission with over drive which operate flawless.

Ford 9 inch rear end

All the lights and horn work too.

It has a 5 gallon fuel tank, so stay close to gas stations.

It is a fair car, it is not perfect, but it is just fine for a "RAT ROD"  the body work could of been a bit better, but it is what it is.

The carb could use some fine tuning, as it has been sitting and may have some old fuel too, but it is fine.

I have never, ever drove this car on the highway, but if I was going to I would probably have the alignment checked.

It is a fun Saturday night Cruiser, perfect for a fun family type of gathering with folks who enjoy the same thing.

It has been to a few car shows for fun and it always draws the old school crowed, I have to say that I have a 100 point 57 Belair and the crowd that this car draws is a lot more fun than the crowd the Belair draws :)

Please feel free to ask questions, it is best to reach me by phone at 785-410-7615 my name is Chad

We will store the car for a reasonable 4-5 weeks at no charge, please insure it once you bought it as I do live in Kansas and Tornados seem to be attracted to us.

 

Shipping world wide is possible, its expensive at an average of $3400

I think I am being pretty fair on the price and believe it is bellow market value, but I am open to offers as it needs a home other than mine now :)

 

Best of Luck

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.

Ford recalls 434k vehicles for several unrelated issues

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

It seems that the hard winter in much of the country has been as rough on some Fords as it has on many people. The Blue Oval is recalling roughly 434,000 vehicles in two separate recalls, and one of them partially caused by the salt used to melt the snow on roads.
The first recall covers 385,750 2001-2004 Escape models in the Midwest, Northeast and Canada because a subframe could rust and eventually fail. This is partially due to the road salt used in those areas, and about 349,000 of the affected vehicles are in the US. To remedy the problem, dealers are installing a reinforcement cross brace on the frame to strengthen them. There has been one crash caused by the failure but no injuries. According to The Detroit News, this is not the first rust-related recall for Ford. It estimates the company has repaired over two million vehicles since 2010 for problems on vehicles related to the iron oxide, including the rear wheel wells of the Freestar minivan.
The second recall covers 48,950 2013-2014 Ford Fusion, Escape, C-MAX and Lincoln MKZ models because welds in their seatbacks don't meet National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards. The fault affects the front seats, and the sub-standard welds joining the setback to the recliner could increase the chance on injury. There have been no reported injuries or accidents caused by the problem, but there are 42,972 affected vehicles in the US and 4,744 in Canada.

Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.
