1923 Ford model T touring car..(Note plates are CT 1925 ,are not included) Rehabilitated in the 50's. Ran off and on till the early 60's and stored till 4 years ago. It  was easily made run-able and used  till  about  year and a half ago., It performed well.

This car was originally built as a basic magneto non battery and starter car. A long the way(previous to me) a starter was added and spare tire carrier  plus a,4 dip oil pan-crank case, I added a proper original generator and battery frame bracket to replace a home made one. The 2 dash oil lamps used on non battery- starter cars remain.

 The block serial number dates about 1923 and is a " MADEI N CANADA" casting.

The car has not been restored to any degree, just repaired ,rebuilt and touched up as required to keep as a good old driver and usable  in recent history. Really Just cleaned up here and there to preserve what is there.

   The engine has seen work previously and presently  is out and apart for some overhauling. Pistons are low milage and aluminum .030 oversize with newer re-babbitted  match weighted, dippered rods which all appear fine and reusable shape. and were in the engine. Valves seats are now worn, plus  ear main crank bearing thrust is worn out and center main cap in has started a edge split. So fitting all new main caps may just do as the upper block bearings appear just fine plus a good valve job was my plan.

 Transmission  was working nicely and is still  intact, Generator was rebuilt and a set of stock ignition coils. Front axle and spring assembly rebuilt and not driven on yet and toe- in should be checked when the engine weight is back...The rear axle assembly and spring  were overhauled well shortly after I acquired the car,  ..Tires are 3-1/2" x 30 all around ,are older rubber with lots of tread.. Spare is new and match the rear tyers. Wheels were cleaned down and hand painted ,

 Upholstery is 1950's and popped some buttons along the way (old plastic buttons with molded in loops and the loops broke out.)Door panels are tired and original. Body wood  very good.

 The under side of car has been  extensively hand ,pneumatic wire wheel tool and scraped cleaned primed and painted old school.(mostly neatly with a brush)..75% of the body has had the old 50's paint chemically  stripped off to bright metal , some glazing of imperfections(minor wave or ping and old bumps and bruises worked over and painted a shop coat of satin black. This included Front fenders, radiator  shell, head lamps, hood shelves, hood, windshield parts, dash board, dash lamps, body as far back as rear doors...Back bucket quarters and rear panel and rear fenders and aprons are still old 50's black lacquer  with some rust spotting blisters.  Top irons are complete ,good shape with some broken wood  bows and mega tack holes.

 There is no title required in Connecticut for such cars so one is not available. .You  get a Connecticut DMV bill of sale plus hand written bill of sale only. So don't ask about any title business.

You get all the parts I have for this one car, that belong to it...An extra core generator or starter parts etc .that may be.in pictures are not included . You just get the good ones for the car.LOL!

If there is no interest for a price and since  I've just run out gas with these wonderful  Model T's after 38 years , I'm open to trade  for several things .

 Of most interest is an unrestored /restorable most complete 1920's  4 cylinder Dodge Touring car or Maxwell 1922-25 Touring car .Though I'm open to other pre `1931 touring cars. Even an open Essex 4 or 6 banger LOL!

 Its a stretch but a Model A '28-'31 4 door Phaeton ,probably in very  tired unrestored shape or decent basket case  project is always on top of the my list. Maybe a nice intact 1928-31 Ford tudor may give me the break I need ?

 If you car Is much  ragger, rougher than mine some cash my way, may be in order?

Winner to pay a non refundable  $500. deposit after auction close within 24 hours...Balance paid in CASH ONLY at pick up...Car can be safely garage kept  for no more than 2 weeks with no responsibility taken or  assumed for any loss or damage , the car is subject to resale after 2 weeks if you fail to pay the balance and make other arrangements so don't  keep me un-informed and out of the loop if your having any trouble getting your act together as far as picking the car up.If an extension Is needed  we'll work on it.

 Winner is completely  responsible for paying and making arrangements for removal and transport. I'm on hand for going through  loose parts and to help out but no co-ordination of the loading up of car and packing of parts as the manager or supply such things  straps ,tie downs , chains, rope ,blocks ,boxing and crates, padding, blankets and wire.

For questions...you may call 203-596-8128 Connecticut,  Leave a message if you must and repeat your telephone number.

eBay Find of the Day: 25-station video gaming trailer w/ bonus Ford F-250

Fri, Nov 28 2014

Why, you might be asking yourself, is Autoblog showing me an eBay Motors listing for a 2006 Ford F-250 and a box trailer (with a badly cropped photo to boot)? It's not because we're highly interested in this blue-collar rig, to be sure, but rather because we're interested in throwing the greatest Forza party of all time. Housed in that innocuous white 26-foot trailer is a gamer's delight, with 25 Xbox 360 systems connected up to 25 high-definition monitors and 24 headsets to keep everyone locked into the action (one of the stations is outside the trailer). When connected up to one of two included generators, the setup allows for two-dozen combatants to square off, back-to-back and head-to-head. Sure, the Buy It Now price of $79,000 seems steep considering the trailer will need about ten grand worth of Xbox One or Playstation 4 upgrades in the near future. But that doesn't mean you couldn't squeeze out a few more years of massive multiplayer fun. Check out the listing here, and do let us know if you buy it, we'd love to come over and game.

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index

Mon, Oct 10 2016

While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.
