1928 Model A Roaster....rubble Seat....new Top....new Tires on 2040-cars
Athens, Tennessee, United States
THERE ANY ACCIDENT DAMAGE? None that I can find. WHY AM I SELLING THIS CAR? I’m a 67 year old retired mechanic/classic car restorer/auto mechanics intructor, when I find a car I like, can sell for a fair market price and make a few bucks, I buy it fix a few things and resell.
PAINT: The paint would be considered very nice driver quality, the shine is brilliant, no rust bubbles, no dents. You will see some specs in the paint if you look with a critical eye and some minor defects, but its good looking paint. We did buff and polish the car to make it look fresh.
CHROME AND BRIGHTWORK: I put a new stainless steel front bumper on, new gas cap, new grab handles, new step, the rear bumper shines good, but has some pits, the grill shell is very decent, but has some dulling around the radiator cap, the headlight chrome shines good, but has some pits. I was going to put a new radiator cap on and the bottom part was on so tight I just left it, the top part opens good to check the coolant.
INTERIOR: The interior is pretty good, no real wear, the bottom front seat springs are pushing the material on the corner of the passengers side. I put a new floor mat in.
DOES THE CAR HAVE ANY BODY-FILLER? Yes, it over 80 years old, no cracks or bubbles, no swelled places, but if you do the magnet test, it is weak in some low places.
GLASS: The glass is in good condition.
ENGINE: The engine is a sweet running 4 cylinder flathead, its a good engine with no knocks other than Model A sounds. We cleaned the carburetor and put a new set of plug in.
The car has been converted to a 12 volt system with a alternator, this is a good thing in my opinion.
EXHAUST SYSTEM: The exhaust is new from the manifold back.
TRANSMISSION: 3 speed manual transmission, it shift good to me, these were not simonized gearing, so don't expect to do any speed shifting.
REAR-END: Its good with no whines or growls other than normal Model A sounds. BRAKES: Good for mechanical brakes, but you have to give it some heavy foot. STEERING: The car drives like most old Model A Fords, it not impressive after driving modern cars, its 1928 steering. WHEELS AND TIRES: Original 21 inch wheels, the 4 on the ground are new wide-shite Firestones with new tubes and liners. LIGHTS: Headlights and tail light work, as well as the stop light. The old switch has been replaced with a push/pull switch.
Ahooga horn is working, but on a push button switch on the dash.
HOW IS THE TOP? New.
HOW IS THE RUNNING BOARD RUBBER? They are nice with no holes or cracking, but not new. HOW DO THE DOORS AND HOOD OPEN AND CLOSE? I think they open and close good for a Model A.
TRADES: Please no trades, they never work out and are just to hard!

I RESERVE TH RIGHT TO STOP THE LISTING AT ANY TIME. THE CAR IS FOR WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED: The car is here at my home in WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM: My name is Ron Watson and I live in the small town of MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT: The area code for PAYMENT: I require a $250 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car, this can be by PayPal, but I will not take full payment by PayPal. Option 1: Pay the old school way face to face. Option 2: Pay by check, I will wait till the check clears, I have had a fake bank certified check. Option 3: The safest and fastest is to let our banks handle it, my bank is a member of the transfer. INSPECTIONS: Please come look and be happy. All inspections are required to be done before the end of the listing. I listed this car as I see it as a 64 year old car restorer, please come and judge it for your self. I judge the car to my standards, this may not be yours. Paid inspectors are welcome, but they can make a good car sound bad on the report. They have to be very critical to cover their back sides. I understand how hard it is to buy a car without looking, but I think you should come look yourself. I don’t like paid inspectors, I like for the person that is buying to inspect for themselves. I think its fine to send a friend to inspect for you. To make it clear, don’t hit the buy now button and then inspect, come inspect first! TRADES: Please no trades! BOTTOM LINE: My real price is $20,000 and I'm asking $21,500 on the local market, if you hit the buy now the price is $20,400, come look. The game is not rocket science, ask a price on the local markety and come down. It’s not fun to bargain over the cell phone all day long with people that live 2000 miles away and are not going to buy anyway. I have sold every car I have ever tried to, so I’m not motivated to be bargained down. PLEASE!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! Come look at this vehicle. Please don’t hit the Buy Now button unless your ready to really buy it! Do your research, call me with questions, read my feed backs, I am ebay verified; this means they say I’m a real person in a real place.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Weekly Recap: Matthew McConaughey's star shines brightly for Lincoln
Sat, Jan 3 2015The commercials were a little strange at first, but the ensuing spoofs were hilarious. And all jokes aside, Matthew McConaughey has made a difference for Lincoln. Advertisements starring the Oscar winner launched in September, and the results have been impressive. The number of customers clicking on Lincoln.com to check out the MKC – the crossover McConaughey pitched – has tripled since the ads began airing, a spokesman told Autoblog. They also generated 4.4 million views on YouTube and spawned parodies by Ellen DeGeneres, Conan O'Brien, South Park and Jim Carrey on Saturday Night Live, which racked up another 15 million views. Most importantly, Lincoln's sales have increased 15 percent through November, helped significantly by the strong launch of the MKC. Without the addition of the MKC, Lincoln's sales would have been essentially flat last year. The MKC has received solid reviews from consumers and the press, though it has had several recalls. "The overwhelming response to the MKC campaign sparked truly great awareness for Lincoln," Andrew Frick, Lincoln group marketing manager, said in a statement. Now Lincoln has launched another round of spots, which kicked off New Year's Day during college football bowl games. This time, McConaughey is hawking the MKZ sedan and its hybrid sibling. The spots, called Diner and Balance, use the same artistic formula as the earlier ads, with McConaughey intoning seriously about the cars in dramatic settings. They were shot over two days in Los Angeles and were directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, a Danish filmmaker who directed the 2011 move, Drive. The ads continue Lincoln's multiyear deal with McConaughey, who has said he's been long been interested in the brand. He starred in the 2011 thriller, The Lincoln Lawyer, as a defense attorney who worked out of a Town Car, though that was before his deal with Lincoln. In one of the earlier ads, McConaughey claims: "I've been driving a Lincoln since long before anybody paid me to drive one. I didn't do it to be cool. I didn't to it to make a statement. I just liked it." That sentiment appears to have worked for the MKC's launch, and with this new advertising blitz, Lincoln hopes it carries over to the MKZ.

Ford unveils Mustang 50th anniversary logo, plans merchandise
