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! |

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?
Thu, 18 Jul 2013A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.
Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Ford celebrates 1 millionth Mustang built at Flat Rock
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Yesterday, the Ford Mustang turned 49 years old, and Ford didn't miss the opportunity to celebrate the one millionth version of the Mustang rolling off the assembly line at the Flat Rock Assembly plant. Production of the Mustang at Flat Rock coincided with the fifth-generation design launching in 2004, and the one millionth car was the car shown above, a 2014 GT convertible painted in Ruby Red.
In total, Ford has sold more than 8.5 million Mustangs since the original car went on sale, but some of the key milestones over the car's nine years at Flat Rock include the Shelby GT-H, Bullitt, Boss 302 and, of course, the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500. Scroll down for a press release celebrating Flat Rock's milestone Mustang.
