Model A Ford Coupe, 1930, Period Hot Rod Modern Style on 2040-cars
Rapid City, South Dakota, United States
1930 Model A Ford coupe, hot rod modern style. This car was restored by an older gentleman in or around 1994. I purchased the car from another fellow who purchased the car from the estate. I was going to make a period correct hot rod out of it but after owning it for awhile, just couldn't bring myself to take off the fenders, splash aprons, running boards ect. It would look pretty cool with them off and perhaps a 32 grill and shell added to the front, but I'll let the new owner be the judge. I had the engine completely rebuilt by Antique Engine Rebuilding out of Skokie, Ill. It has all the good stuff, line bored, inserts, bronze thrust washers, stainless valves ect. It also has a new 6:0 Snyders high compression head installed at the time of rebuild. It also has the Weber downdraft intake and carb along with a new set of Red's headers. It now has all kinds of power (an additional 25-27 horse) so it is running around 65-67 horsepower. I will list all the new parts which are; Rebuilt engine Weber carb and intake Reds headers float-a-motor, front and rear new alternator new leak-less water pump with stainless shaft new style fan and hub rebuilt starter with new bendix drive new coil modern style points,cap, and wiring new set of gauges, oil and water new battery carrier temp probe pipe new red hot muffler and tail-pipe new hoses new brake drums and new shoes on the front with other new brake parts, brakes work very good. new tires with Firestone style tread, new tubes and liners new modern style shocks from Snyders, the good kind. new switch along with many other new parts. I have all receipts. All of the above done with-in the last few months. This would be a great car to tour in or just go for a Sunday drive in smart fashion, fun to open the hood and show off the carb and headers!! It is for sale in the 48 States only, no warranties except the engine builder has told me he would stand behind the engine for an amount of time to be certain it has no problems which it doesn't. Along with the engine rebuild, the clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing and the pilot bearing were replaced.The transmission has been rebuilt and shifts like a dream, headlights, tail-lights and brake lights work, fuel gauge works fine, just a great little car. I am getting to old to get into and out of this car as I am 6-3 and 245lbs. The price is somewhat negotiable thanks for looking! any questions 605-791-1497 |

Thanks for keeping us on our toes, Detroit Auto Show [w/poll]
Wed, Jan 14 2015Here at Autoblog, we love unexpected debuts at auto shows – and judging by our Detroit Auto Show comments and traffic, you do, too. Surprise reveals have been fewer and farther between in recent years with so many ways for vehicles to be teased or leak out, but this week's show has been a revelation. More to the point, it's been a series of revelations, with automakers from around the globe successfully delivering a brace of concept and production surprises. It's made our jobs a lot more exciting and challenging this week, and even though it's actually more work to react and run-and-gun when the sheet is pulled on a surprise reveal than it is to publish an already-written embargoed story, we've had more fun covering this show for you than any domestic show in memory. We hope you've enjoyed the surprises along with us. To that end, borrowing the words of an unnamed automaker PR flack, we'd like to thank the following automakers for enduring "mountain of antacids" and that "creeping sense of paranoia" necessary to keeping ones' wares totally under wraps until the sheets are pulled off the sheetmetal: Buick Avenir concept Chevrolet Bolt concept Ford GT concept Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Hyundai HCD-15 Santa Cruz concept And while we're at it, we'd like to throw in an shout-out to Detroit's substantially revised and revitalized Cobo Center, and in particular, the redone Michelin media center, which is arguably the single best accommodations for writing show stories that we've encountered on the entire international circuit. Well done, everyone. Thank you, and keep the surprises coming. Auto News Detroit Auto Show Buick Chevrolet Ford Hyundai Volvo 2015 Detroit Auto Show
Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
2015 Ford Focus Electric hides in plain sight
Wed, 16 Apr 2014The styling changes to the 2015 Ford Focus were shown off at the recent Geneva Motor Show, so what the EV version looks like is not that much of a surprise. Still, the 2015 Focus Electric is making its world debut here at the New York Auto Show, so we wanted to know what changes we are looking at compared to both the internal combustion engine version and the earlier EV models.
The exterior visual distinctions between the ICE and EV are minimal, and basically nonexistent from the A-pillar to the rear. Up front, you can see the charge port, of course, but the front fascia has also undergone a bit of an adjustment. The front doesn't have the ICE version's flattened grille and the EV's Ford logo creates a bump in the hood line where none exists on the ICE. The 2015's grille is also different than the one on the 2014 Focus Electric, being slightly smaller (you can see this better if you compare pictures in our new gallery above to these of the 2011 Focus Electric and these of the gas-powered 2015 Focus).
The updated 2015 interior - which we couldn't access ourselves - has things like a new center stack, improved cupholders and is basically identical between the gas and electric models. With the car off, you can't even tell if you're in an EV or ICE, Seema Bardwaj, the US brand manager for the Focus, told AutoblogGreen. The only things that are different, she said, are extra menu screens to show EV powertrain information to the driver.
