What are you getting your special loved one for Christmas - that no one else has? Here is the answer -

Wonderful 1919 Ford Model TT with a 1926 engine and transmission. Truck runs and has a two stage ruxtal rear end. This truck is clean and neat.

What about using this great truck for:

Photography business - old time or modern
Parades
Restaurant business
Resorts or hayrides
Farm or ranch vehicle
Other unique and fun uses

I have converted the box for use as a photography studio so it has three separate sections for the box. The box is made of 1/2 inch white oak, but I also have the original box that is shown in the older photo (all black) of the truck. Both boxes are included in this sale. The box that is mounted on the truck now can be swapped out for the original box very easily. Section 1 of the box is approximately 12" x 6'8". Section 2 of the box is approximately 18" x 5'. Section 3 of the box is approximately 4' x 6'6". The box is approximately 4' high throughout.

This is a great truck for the hobbyist. You can make the box into whatever use you want. I currently use it as a photo studio for antique photography. Section 1 of the box is my old west bar, Section 2 is my area for developing photos (hence the white curtain that you see in the photos that makes it a functioning dark room), and Section 3 is used for equipment storage. The box area can be easily rearranged for a different application.

The engine has been (within the last 10 miles) thoroughly cleaned inside and out.

The commutator (distributor) is new, as are the plugs and plug wires.
The two kerosene lamps are not original to this year of Model TT but they look good and are complete.
The head gasket is new.
The carburetor is a new factory rebuilt.
The radiator leaks just a tiny bit out of the top, but has never bothered me.
The frame and engine have been sand blasted and repainted in the past year.
The front fenders have a few small dents that you can see in the pictures. The dents do not detract from the presentation of the truck.
The top covers of the cab and the box are new.
The seat and backrest of the interior of the cab are new.

The license plate mounted on the radiator is on an authentic antique Ford bracket and the tag is an authentic 1919 Kansas tag.

There is an electrical outlet in each of the three sections (compartments) of the box. You just have to plug an extension cord in at the left rear of the cab (as shown in one of the pics) and all of the three outlets are then available for use.

The decorative stuff that is in the primary picture is not part of this auction; just wanted to show how I use Section 1, the old west bar.

You can call me at 913-683-8063 for conversation or to get more pictures.

Talk to me about delivery - we might be able to make a deal that is good for you.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.

Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.

Are you a new Ford Mustang SVO? [w/video]

Fri, 16 May 2014

When Ford announced that its 2015 Mustang would arrive with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, three letters came to mind: SVO. While Ford hasn't said a word regarding the rebirth of a Mustang SVO model, this latest set of spy shots shows us something very, very interesting. Allow us to explain.
The Mustang prototype in these photos looks very similar to the GT500 test cars we've spotted before - same bulging hood, aggressive front fascia and air vents aft of the front wheels. What's different, however, is around back. Have a look at the exhaust, and note that instead of the GT500's usual quad pipes, two of the exhaust outlets have been capped off.
Our spies point out that these exhaust outlets could be closed for some sort of emissions testing or another engineering reason, but it's also important to note that the engine and exhaust notes of this car sound completely different from earlier GT500 prototypes. We've got a video below that compares the two.
