Model A 1930 Coupe on 2040-cars
Rapid City, South Dakota, United States
|
1930 Model A Ford coupe. A very solid original car with rumble seat and rear mount spare. No body patches or rust out, fenders are very nice and solid as is the entire car. I will list what has been done so far, Rebuilt engine by Antique Engine Rebuilding, cyclinders bored, new pistons, rings ect, new valves and springs, crank turned, cam reground/replaced, new timing gears, oil pump, flywheel faced with new clutch and pressure plate, new throw-out bearing, and pilot bearing every thing has been completely rebuilt or replaced. This engine is new with less than five miles since installed back into the car. It also has a new Weber carb and intake on it, along with a new set of Reds headers.The starter was rebuilt with-in the last year and the generator last two. Engine is mounted with a Float-A-Motor front and rear. tranny was rebuilt about three years ago. It has a new set of gauges (oil and temp) mounted in a new bracket. New style dist. cap and rotor along with new style points and new wires and ends. Has a new water pump with a stainless shaft, also the engine has the 6:1 Snyders high compression head. The rebuild also includes new SS valves, new guides, new adjustable lifters, inserts on the main and rod bearings and resurfaced block. After I had the engine back in the car and running ( and Wow does it run nice!) I took it for a short drive, kind of fun to start out in low and just get the car rolling good and then shift into high, no power problems here. Other things I have done were to replace the junction box on the engine side of the firewall, replace some wiring, replace the gas gauge and float, ect. The car will need some brake work, the brakes stop the car like a Model A but could be better, I was considering juice brakes, but the original Model A brakes when up to snuff work just fine. The battery box and cables have been replaced also. If there are more question call 605-791-one four nine seven, evenings are best. The hood, front bumpers, headlights and horn are not on the car at this time, but I can reinstall before shipping/delivery. Depending on how one would like to finish the car up consider the work that has been done thus far, you could go old school hot-rod or very well hidden souped up original. (The V-8 wheels are available separate of the car because I thought some may not want them.) I will expect $500.00 down through pay-pal with-in 48 hrs of sale and the balance wire to wire bank transfer. I will help with loading ect. if you need the car shipped to you. To be sold with-in the 48 States Only! thanks for looking! |

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years
Wed, 18 Sep 2013This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.
Ford S-Max Concept previews new look, technology for Euro seven-seater
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Ford unveiled today the S-Max Concept, which comes with a new, sleek look and loaded with innovative technology, such as a heart-rate monitoring seat. But if you're heart is set on a minivan sports activity vehicle (SAV) and you live in the States, don't wait for this one - it's a Europe-only product, and we don't expect that to change when the next-gen S-Max is released.
The styling follows Ford's global design language, looking a bit like an overgrown Focus hatchback with the company's signature grille, wraparound headlamps, steeply raked windshield and curved roof line. Ford also implemented details to make the S-Max look longer and faster, such as a feature line on each side of the vehicle and muscular-looking fenders. The engine isn't Ford's most powerful, but the new 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine should be potent enough with turbocharging and other efficiency related technologies.
Ford says the new interior, which seats up to seven people, features high-quality materials and fine detailing, such as an "ultra-soft" leather wrap for the instrument panel and leather and carbon-fiber details on the seats. Ford's Sync connectivity system with MyFord Touch makes the car a wireless hotspot, and there's a tablet docking station for second-row occupants.
Ford Recalls Nearly 435,000 Vehicles
Mon, Apr 7 2014Ford is recalling nearly 435,000 cars and SUVs to fix rusting frame parts or faulty seats. The biggest of the two recalls covers nearly 386,000 Ford Escapes from the 2001 through 2004 model years. Ford says the subframes can rust, allowing a control arm to separate and hamper steering control. Ford is aware of one crash but no injuries linked to the problem. The SUVs were originally sold or registered in 20 states and Washington, D.C., where salt is used to clear snow and ice from roads. Six Canadian provinces also are included. Dealers will install a reinforcement brace to fix the problem. The Escapes covered by the recall were built from Oct. 22, 1999 through Dec. 19, 2003 at the Kansas City Assembly plant, and from May 1, 2003 through Jan. 23, 2004 at the Ohio Assembly plant, Ford said in a statement issued Monday. They were originally sold or registered in Connecticut, Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, Wisconsin, Delaware, Maine, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Vermont, Indiana, Michigan, New York, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. Also covered are Escapes sold or registered in Ontario, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland & Labrador. The second recall covers 49,000 Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and C-MAX vehicles from 2013 and 2014. Dealers will replace seat back frames that weren't welded properly. No crashes or injuries have been reported from the problem, Ford said. Recalls Ford
