1913 Model T Ford Roadster Pickup on 2040-cars
Conroe, Texas, United States
This Model T is a 1913 roadster pickup. The description of the Model T: The T was painted in late 2012, and the seat cover was done about the same time. The body is maroon and the fenders, running boards, splash aprons are black. The floor mat is new. The engine has been modified with a 12 volt system, with alternator, electric start, halogen headlights, LED tail lights, however there is no "stop light". The electric starter was added for ease of starting but can still be crank started if you choose. There is a clear Texas title in my name and the numbers on the title match that on the engine.. The bed on the pickup was built according to the correct original design and uses the correct fittings. We have made road trips of 80 to 100 miles or more with no problems and is regularly driven to church and around town on nice days. The Model T starts and runs on magneto, the correct tool box and carbide generator are mounted on the running board. The white tires are in good condition with the "NonSkid" tread design. There is plenty of good tread remaining on the tires. The "white" on the front tires is good, however the rear tires tend to turn grey over time. The rear tires are "white" tires but to keep them looking good I use a rubberized white paint about once a year to keep them looking good. A spare can of white tire paint is included with the sale. I cannot attest that the engine is a 1913 engine, however it is easily started and runs as quiet as any Model T I have ever driven or listened to. The motor number on the engine is 178724 and checking with the Model T website the engine number originated in late 1912, but that doesn't mean it is a 1912 or 1913 manufactured engine. But I can say that the engine is in very good driving condition, it doesn't smoke and starts and runs right on down the road very well. Please look at the engine pictures and if you have any questions regarding the engine you may want to check with someone you know that is a Model T expert------I'm not. But it is a Model T engine for sure, all 20 horse power of it. The car is for sale locally and the auction may be ended without notice, transportation is the responsibility of the purchaser. You are invited to make a personal inspection of the car prior to bidding if you like. I don't think you will be disappointed but you never know how someone else will look at a car or truck. The preferred method of payment is by wire transfer.

Chris Harris pits Fiesta ST against Mercedes G63 AMG in 0-60 battle... sort of
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Vehicle performance tests are serious business, with reputations made or broken by things like braking distance, top speed, and lateral g-forces. King of the metrics, though, is the 0-60 run, which for unknown reasons has become the benchmark for what truly makes a car a performance machine.
Now, Chris Harris from Drive has turned the whole idea behind the sprint to 60 on its ear. Taking a new Ford Fiesta ST, Harris asks a simple question: would the ST be quicker to 60 on its own, or on a trailer being towed by a Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG?
It's a fair question, really. The Fiesta Harris tested hit 60 in 7.2 seconds on a slightly uphill section of runway. It should be noted that Harris quotes his ST at 182 horsepower, which is about 15 ponies less than what we're getting in the US, so these numbers might not hold up all that well against an American model. The G63 AMG, meanwhile, is a 536-horsepower monster, powered by a twin-turbo V8 that, able to propel the big SUV to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds without towing a Fiesta.
Here's the new face of the Ford Ranger
Thu, Nov 27 2014Ford Asia Pacific has put a teaser video on YouTube showing off details on the 2015 Ranger pickup, and at the end we get a quick glimpse of the whole truck. This is the T6 Ranger that we still don't get in North America, but that shares its underpinnings with the Everest SUV recently introduced at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The Ranger gets a chunkier front end than the Everest, identified by its grille with three floating slats, reminiscent of designs on the previous F-150, and a less-stylized lower front bumper. Ford says it will be smarter, safer, smoother and stronger, but we'll have to wait for its reveal to find out what that means. Meanwhile, you can admire its new looks in the video below.
This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like
Sat, 12 Oct 2013Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.
