You are bidding on a 1929 Ford Model A Standard Roadster we have owned since 2008. It was a barn find, restored from 1976 to 1978. We have all the receipts,over $20,000.00 worth and photos including the car in front of the barn. It is a VERY correct restoration. The tires are 5 years old and it has a new correct battery and LeBaron Bonney interior. It is registered with the correct license plates and comes with the tools. It was awarded best Vintage at The Pacific Grove Concours Rally in 2008, and class winner at car shows in 2009, 2011 and 2013. We had also been accepted and shown at the Marin, Palo Alto and Hillsborough Concours D'Elegances. It is in perfect mechanical shape and needs nothing. The Speedometer was broken and has been rebuilt with a new cable, so I don't know the true milage. The paint is chipped on the hood and left front fender. There is a crack and chip in the paint on the right rear fender. There is a chip in both doors near the handle and some around the opening to the rumble seat. There is a crack in the lower left corner of the windshield and some cracks in the road wheel hubs. These are all minor signs of wear and tear. The windshield wiper is sluggish. We do not have any of the side curtinsYou won't be afraid to drive her around or have your Granchildren enjoy riding in her. The car does come with some spare parts, shop manual and an 8 volume set of How to Restore your Model A. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call or e-mail.

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.
Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
