1924 Ford Model T Tudor Sedan Original W/extra New Parts on 2040-cars
Boynton Beach, Florida, United States
|
Selling my 1924 Model T Tudor sedan. I bought this car as a project and have done some work to it, but have run out of time, ability and desire. The body is in nice shape very little rust for a 90 year old car. It has some surface rust here and there, the right front fender is the only spot on the whole car where it is through(see closeup, it's small). Some surface rust under the step boards. The chassis/frame are in solid shape. The car has ancient paint, the lower windshield and rear right window are cracked, the rest of the glass is in great shape. All the windows roll up and down but are a bit stiff, the drivers goes up and down, but stops about 3/4 the way up. The tires have tons of tread left, but are starting to show tiny age cracks, so to be safe you should replace them. The wood wheels are good and solid. The interior is original and all there, should be replaced, it's pretty stained. The rubber roof and roof wood needs replacing. The wood floor is in nice shape. The battery was shot when I bought it, so I put in a new battery, and she cranks, the horn and lights work. I then put in new spark plugs, spark plug wires, rebuilt the Holley NH carb, and actually got it running but very poorly, very, very poorly, where it starts up puttery and will run a few seconds and die. It will not run long enough time to drive. That's where I am with the car right now. I went on some websites and they said check the coils, check the timer etc., that is beyond me, please be familiar with these cars before you buy. I have about $700-800 in brand new parts that go with the car. They were ordered from Macs and Langs specialist Model T parts. They are.......A roof wood kit from MACs made specifically for this car(cost $450), a custom car cover specifically for this car, Ford spare tire cover, Ford floor mats, coolant pipe, hoses and clamps, pedal boots, pedal pads, 4 window cranks, 4 window crank escutcheons, carb hot air pipe, door bumpers, brake pads and springs, step plate screws, patent plate, Ford script radiator plate, brass fuel shut off valve, 2 brass radiator petcocks, and some catalogues to order parts from. They sell the rubber roof kit for about $120, so the majority of the cost is taken care of already since I am providing the wood kit. I have tried to describe this car as well as I could and put in tons of pictures, so keep in mind it's 90 years old and needs work/restoration, so expect what you see in pictures. It is a really solid and complete car to start with. If you have a bit more knowledge and time than me, it should be up and going pretty easily. Clean, open Florida title, in previous owners name, ready to go in your name. I will also give a bill of sale. Sold as is, with no warranty. If you are local and want to inspect it before bidding, I encourage that, just let me know. No complaining or asking questions afterwards. Deposit of $250 due within 2 days through Paypal, the balance in cash within 2 weeks. If you are out of state and need more time, let me know BEFORE you bid, maybe when can work something out. Buyer responsible for shipping costs and arranging shipping plans to pick up from my house. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time, for any reason. |

Even Ford executives had issues with MyFord Touch
Fri, Oct 7 2016MyFord Touch is one of the auto industry's more controversial features. The media broadly panned the infotainment system developed with Microsoft for its slow responses and reliance on voice commands to navigate its deep menus. Oh, and Ford executives weren't big fans, either. Newly revealed court documents in a California class-action lawsuit demonstrate the level of venom Ford employees, both big and small, reserved for the Blue Oval's infotainment system. An error caused Bill Ford's navigation system to crash, leaving the family scion stuck on the side of the road in an unfamiliar area. The documents, unearthed by Forbes, detail current CEO Mark Fields' aggravations with MFT, too. A mechanic emailed an image of a cracked infotainment screen on an Edge to one of Ford's top Sync engineers, Kenneth Williams, suggesting "Mark Fields may have been a little aggravated with the system." But Ford and Fields' issues are nothing compared to the woes of the engineers that had to work on MFT. In a collection of emails obtained by Forbes, one engineer called the system "a polished turd," while another simply said, "These poor customers." And after one engineer suggested using a photo of Ford's Oakville Assembly Plant – home of the Edge, Flex, Lincoln MKX, and MKT production – as a background for the system, one of his coworkers said in an email that someone should instead Photoshop the image to read "abandon hope all ye who enter here," the Detroit News reports. Another summed up the problem, saying: "Ford's quality reputation is completely on the line ... another model year with the same crap is not acceptable." MyFord Touch almost single-handedly torpedoed Ford's reputation in widely reported quality metrics, including JD Power and Consumer Reports. Ford responded with a refreshed Sync3, a wildly improved rethink of its infotainment system that is far more responsive and easier to live with every day.

Ford auctioning off F-35-themed 2015 Mustang for charity
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Ford's been a supporter of EAA AirVenture, a huge, annual air show held in Oshkosh, WI, for several years now, with one of its most notable contributions being a modified Ford Mustang, designed to look like one of America's great fighting aircraft. There was an SR-71 Mustang, based on the legendary spy plane, a Red Tails edition, which honored the ground-breaking Tuskegee Airmen of World War II, as well as Blue Angels and Thunderbird Mustangs, based on America's two great military aerial demonstration teams.
Each car is auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the EAA Young Eagles program, which introduces kids to the joy of flight. For the 2014 AirVenture, which runs from July 28 to August 3, the one-off pony car is based on the new-for-2015 Mustang, and America's latest fighting aircraft - the controversial F-35 Lightning II.
The unique Mustang sports titanium paint scheme, with both glossy and matte sections, as well as yellow-and-blue trim and decal elements inspired by CF-1, the first F-35 test plane. A carbon-fiber front splitter and rear diffuser add some visual eye candy, while the interior boasts a set of Recaro seats. Ford also opted to fit unique wheels and a brawnier rear spoiler, to tie everything together.
Ford recalls 434k vehicles for several unrelated issues
Mon, 07 Apr 2014It seems that the hard winter in much of the country has been as rough on some Fords as it has on many people. The Blue Oval is recalling roughly 434,000 vehicles in two separate recalls, and one of them partially caused by the salt used to melt the snow on roads.
The first recall covers 385,750 2001-2004 Escape models in the Midwest, Northeast and Canada because a subframe could rust and eventually fail. This is partially due to the road salt used in those areas, and about 349,000 of the affected vehicles are in the US. To remedy the problem, dealers are installing a reinforcement cross brace on the frame to strengthen them. There has been one crash caused by the failure but no injuries. According to The Detroit News, this is not the first rust-related recall for Ford. It estimates the company has repaired over two million vehicles since 2010 for problems on vehicles related to the iron oxide, including the rear wheel wells of the Freestar minivan.
The second recall covers 48,950 2013-2014 Ford Fusion, Escape, C-MAX and Lincoln MKZ models because welds in their seatbacks don't meet National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards. The fault affects the front seats, and the sub-standard welds joining the setback to the recliner could increase the chance on injury. There have been no reported injuries or accidents caused by the problem, but there are 42,972 affected vehicles in the US and 4,744 in Canada.
