Up for auction is my 1923 Ford T-Bucket. It is older build and is showing it's age. The fiberglass shell has a few areas of damage that will need some attention whenever you get around to it. They are not really visible, but if you look at the back where the trunk is you may be able to see them. The windshield post appears to be original to a 23 T and the glass is break free. Side steps for ease of getting in and a Cassette player with 4 speakers that are of no use when the vehicle is started. Break lights, headlights, blinkers and tail lights work as they should. There is also a working wiper arm as shown, but of no use. Solid frame and there is disc brakes on the front and drum brakes with a 9" Ford rear-end in the rear. The motor is either a 327 or 350 Chevy with Camel Back heads, an over size cam ( specs unknown ) and a Edelbrock 6-pack manifold with adjustable electronic fuel pump. There is no choke so it is very cold blooded when started until slightly warmed up. The carbs could use adjustment,  I could not find any-one local to tune them, so they will need some adjustment or rebuilds. There is an electronic ignition installed with a 50,000 volt coil. The engine is loud due to no baffles in the exhaust and has a very severe cam loop to it, Electronic fan installed, but I had never used it yet and have done a few parades. The transmission I am unsure of, but I would probably guess a turbo-350. The front seal has a very small leak to it when sitting for a few days. The car is a good driver with new plugs, electronic ignition, oil change and new plug wires. I am sure I forgot something, but email me and I can answer any questions. I do work until 7:00 PM and answer emails after that. The car runs down the road good, is very loud and still draws plenty of looks. Maybe due to the vehicle, or the un-baffled exhaust. Personally I am a Ford guy and if it does not sell I will pull the Chevy motor and trans out sell it and install a Ford motor in it. Just my preference. THE VEHICLE IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITH NO WARRENTY APPLIED.

Buyer is responsible for picking up the car or arranging for shipping. 
I will accept PayPal, Cashiers check along with cash as payment methods. All payment method beside cash will need to clear the bank before the car is released.
Please email with any questions. I will need a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 3 days of auction ending and payment if full within 10 days of auction ending. I can store the car for a couple of weeks while transport is arranged.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.

Weekly Recap: Jaguar takes a leap with price cut, new strategy

Sat, Sep 5 2015

Jaguar was one of the famous automotive props and plotlines in the now-iconic drama Mad Men. There's a scene where the show's protagonist, Don Draper, deftly undercuts an influential Jaguar dealer by indicating that get-me-in-the-door local radio spots would be an effective way to sell cars like the slinky E-Type. The British executives think this is folly – Draper knows they will – and his advertising strategy wins out over the dealer's approach to move the metal. Jaguar's not doing that, but half a century later in the real world the company is launching plans to make its cars more attainable to new and younger customers like Millenials. These aren't coupons, but this is a leap for Jaguar, which has long banked on sexy styling and its rich motorsports history to overshadow its past mechanical flaws. Put simply, Jaguar is addressing the reasons why people, especially the younger set, don't buy its cars. The 2017 XE will start at $35,895 when it launches next spring – which makes it an attractive buy for a successful, relatively young person. When it's time to move up, the redesigned XF will be more attainable, coming in at $52,895, which is $5,275 less than the 2015 model. The flagship XJ sedan and the enthusiast-oriented F-Type sports car will also get thousands of dollars worth of added standard features, and Jag is actively pitching them as a better value than their competitors. "The Jaguar brand is on the eve of a major transformation that will see it dramatically increase its presence in the United States luxury marketplace with an expanded lineup, pricing focused on the core of the luxury market, and an all-new ownership package with best-in-class coverage," Joe Eberhardt, CEO of Jaguar Land Rover North America, said in a statement. The brand's quality and reliability dings have also lurked in the back of buyers' minds for decades, though that's an outdated notion. Jaguar placed third in J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study in June and was the top-ranked luxury brand in J.D. Power's Customer Service Index in March. Not content, the company is rolling out an enhanced program called Jaguar EliteCare that launches on 2016 models. It offers a five-year, 60,000-mile limited warranty, the longest among its competitors, with free scheduled maintenance during that period. The plan also covers roadside assistance and connectivity features.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected

Thu, 29 May 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
