1910 Ford Model T Tourabout. Well preserved older restoration, AACA Natrional First Prize Winner. This car is very authentic with most original parts, not a reconstructed vehicle. It has the following original correct parts: open valve engine, one piece pan, square hole transmission cover, 6 rivet rear, one piece spindles with wide track axles front and rear, wheels, coil box, hood former, Stewart speedometer with drive, Rands windshield, E&J 466 headlights with burners and excellent mirrors, E&J 3 tier sidelights ( may be incorrect), E&J taillight, Rubes horn, and more. The windshield and sidelight brackets are correct brass plated steel. Part of the arrow is still visible on the mixture knob. The carburetor is incorrect. It is an older restoration but the paint is still presentable, some cracking due to age and the wooden body. The body itself is original, see picture of back and front cushion frame. The leather upholstery is in excellent condition. The top is good and is lined. There are no side curtains. The car runs good, even on mag. The individual who found and restored this car registered it as a 1909. In order to do this he ground off the 1 on the engine serial number (pretty obvious looking at the picture of the engine) making it a 1909, ser# 6361, when in fact it should be a 1910 ser# 16361 (an easy fix). Checking with the Ford archives substantiates the fact that this is indeed a 1910. The shipping department records describe #16361 as a tourabout with 60" southern track axles, Rands WS, Stewart speedometer etc. This car was assembled on 2/23/10 and shipped to F. M. Co. in Houston TX on Feb 26, 1910. I have copies of the original Ford manufacturing department records, supplied by the Ford archives. The car is presently located in northern New Jersey near various interstates and about 20 miles from NYC. Please contact me via eBay or call me at 201 327 7621 for any questions or further pictures, also to make an appointment to see and drive the car. Low reserve! |

Ford posts record pre-tax Q3 profit of $2.6B
Thu, 24 Oct 2013Ford took in $2.6 billion in pre-tax profits in the third quarter of the year, making for a record trio of months that saw the Blue Oval's year-over-year earnings increase by $426 million. The earnings are being attributed not just to improvements in North American sales, but sales around the globe.
Revenue was up 12 percent, to $36 billion, although net income took a hit, dropping $359 million to $1.3 billion. Ford was dinged with $498 million in pre-tax charges, which are being blamed for the drop in net income.
The news has boosted Ford's hopes for full-year results, bumping it's total profits up past $8 billion, according to Automotive News. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer is still expecting a loss in Europe, although it's forecasted less than the $1.73 billion it burned in 2012. In fact, according to CFO Bob Shanks, Ford's European losses dropped by 51 percent year-over year, a huge improvement for the brand.
2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Feb 2013What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!
