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 |

Britain orders 10,000 ventilators from F1/McLaren/Mercedes/Ford/Rolls-Royce/Airbus
Mon, Mar 30 2020Paramedics and ambulance personnel get instructions from a command unit outside London's ExCel Centre arena, which is being turned into a 4,000 bed temporary hospital called NHS Nightingale to deal with coronavirus patients. The hospital is due to open Monday, March 30. / AP Â Â LONDON — Britain has ordered 10,000 ventilators from a consortium of leading aerospace, engineering and Formula One racing companies which will start production this week in response to an urgent government call for industry to help save lives. The 27-strong team, including Airbus, BAE Systems, Ford and Rolls-Royce, have joined forces to ramp up production of a ventilator made by Smiths Group, which supports those with complications from COVID-19. The consortium, which also includes seven Formula One teams including McLaren and Mercedes, home to World Champion Lewis Hamilton, said they had pulled staff off existing projects to meet the national need. Some 1,228 people have died from coronavirus in the United Kingdom and a senior health official said on Saturday the country would be doing well if it manages to keep the death toll below 20,000. "This consortium brings together some of the most innovative companies in the world," Dick Elsy, the head of the consortium, said in a statement. "I am confident this consortium has the skills and tools to make a difference and save lives." The United Kingdom, which initially only had 5,000 ventilators available in its National Health Service, has been trying to secure additional supplies after realising it needed 30,000 to cope with the peak of the outbreak. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is now in isolation in Downing Street after testing positive for coronavirus, made an emergency appeal earlier this month for manufacturers to retool their production lines and start making specialist health equipment including ventilators. Britain now has about 8,000 ventilators, with another 8,000 on order from international manufacturers that are due in coming weeks. Last week it placed an order for a newly-designed model from the vacuum cleaner company Dyson that will need to be approved by the health regulator. Mercedes part of a separate effort, too Separately on Monday a second consortium including Mercedes Formula One and other F1 teams said it had developed in less than a week a new version of a breathing aid that can help coronavirus patients.
