1926 Model Tt Truck Closed Cab on 2040-cars
Wilmington, North Carolina, United States
|
This is a 1926 Model TT Truck. It's 88 years old. It is not perfect, but very cool for parades and such. It has a removable bench seat on the bead that can comfortably seat six to eight adults. It has a factory Ford Truck Bed that has had the wood replaced and also the rails. I have had the engine rebuild by a Model T Garage in Fayetteville NC. last fall 2013. I can give you $7000.00 +/- tickets for this work for your files. It has new babbit. .040 aluminum pistons, recharged magnets, new valves and more. I can give you the full breakdown if you wish, or the mechanic's number and he can tell you everything. It also has new Kevlar bands in the transmission. The magneto will put out near 38 volts. I have just installed $975 worth of tires and tubes last Christmas before our annual Christmas Parade. There are a few things that need fixing: It needs a new gas tank and gas line which is available for less than $300. The in line fuel filter I have installed gets hot and vapor locks and the truck cuts off. When it cools down, it runs like a champ again. It's generator is not charging and needs attention, It may be the cut out, it may be the brushes need adjusting, it may need to be rebuilt. It stopped working when we jumped it with 12 volts, because the brake light was left on and run the battery down, not to smart on my part. The new leather straps that I installed to let the door windows up and down need to be trimmed and finessed so they will work a little better. Over all, this truck is in pretty good shape for its age. I don't see any more than surface rust here and there, but you be the judge. It's a very cute truck that you can be proud of. The coils are wooden and have been checked and seem to be ok. It has a new 8 volt battery. I have a Clear North Carolina Title in hand. True mileage unknown. Engine has less than 50 miles. No speedometer but required to put something. Please contact me and come and look at the TT Truck before you buy it if you wish. It's located near Wrightsville Beach on the East Coast. On May-07-14 at 04:34:57 PDT, seller added the following information: This Truck does have an older paint job and I'm not sure know how old. It looks very presentable. I don't want to leave the impression that it is in it's original Henry Ford Paint. Please ask any questions and I will get back to you. If you need any additional photos, let me know what you need. |

Consumer Reports: Ford Fusion fun but flawed; Mitsubishi i-MiEV slow, chintzy [w/videos]
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Waiting for a Ford compliment from Consumer Reports these days is like waiting for a low-cost new product from Apple. So we weren't really expecting a glowing review of the 2013 Ford Fusion when CR got its hands on the car. The institute's crew bought three different versions of the Fusion (Hybrid, 1.6-liter EcoBoost and a Titanium with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost) to put through its barrage of tests, and while we aren't too surprised by some of the findings, they're still interesting nonetheless.
CR praises the Fusion for its "eye-catching" design and says that the sportier Titanium trim level is the best-handling midsize sedan they've ever tested, but that's about where the good news ends for Ford. The Fusion Hybrid also posted the best-ever fuel economy CR has recorded in a midsize sedan, but the only problem is that their number was 39 miles per gallon combined - far less than Ford's 47 mpg rating for city, highway and combined. As expected, CR also dinged the Fusion for its MyFord Touch, but some of the other gripes about the car include a cramped cabin and poor fit and finish.
Other Ford products tested this time around include the Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid. Like the Fusion, CR's observed fuel economy of 37 mpg for the C-Max fell well short of Ford's advertised 47-mpg rating, and both cars were criticized for the use of MyFord Touch. CR notes that the Focus Electric's interior is also cramped, with the battery pack taking up a lot of cargo space.
Ring Brothers shows 1965-66 Mustang fastback carbon fiber body
Thu, 07 Nov 2013We covered one of Ring Brothers' more extreme SEMA builds yesterday, the De Tomaso Pantera-based ADRNLN, but if that well-executed but over-the-top Italian-American exotic is too much for you, then perhaps this Ring Brothers 1965 Ford Mustang fastback with a carbon-fiber body suits your tastes better.
What the performance-parts manufacturer is showcasing with the Mustang is the carbon-fiber body itself, which is fashioned around the 1965-66 fastback. It can be bought from the company and bonded to the skin and unibody as a do-it-yourself project, or you can take your Mustang to Ring Brothers and have the body installed there. The fenders, doors and quarter panels are two-inches wider than stock, and Ring Brothers offers a custom widebody chassis to those who want the complete package.
The show car looks sharp in person lowered on HRE wheels, and we appreciate the bare front end so we can see the supercharged V8 and front coilover suspension, though the details on those performance upgrades are slim. Also note the custom independent rear suspension setup at the rear.
TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles
Wed, Jan 15 2014We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.
