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!

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.

Ford patents a multi-touch version of its classic keypad
Fri, Sep 9 2016For decades, Ford has offered a keypad on the doors of their cars that would allow owners access with the right code. Amazingly, the keypad has survived almost unchanged except for a recent touch button version. A new patent from the Blue Oval shows the keypad may get a big upgrade soon. The first big change is that it looks like the keypad may move to the key fob. Although it might be possible to have it on the car itself as well, the patent only seems to focus on the key fob. In addition, the fob will now be a multi-touch pad similar to that of modern smartphones. This will allow for more diverse code entries, according to the patent's description. Instead of just a simple number code, owners could enter a code that involves swipes and keystrokes, and even simultaneous keystrokes. For instance, you could enter a code that requires swiping from 1 to 3, followed by holding 2 and 4 to unlock the car. The patent also seems to indicate that this keypad would then display unlock functions and other functions on the fob after the correct code is entered, thus making it more than just a way to unlock the car. As for the practical implications of this keypad system update, it could provide an added layer of security. If someone steals your keys, they would have to also know your access code to get into the car. Whether this would also help make the key and car harder to hack would remain to be seen, though. Another possible benefit could be the prevention of accidental lock and alarm button presses, although that likely isn't a common issue. There could be potential downsides as well. If used as an extra layer of security, the legitimate owner would have to punch in their code on the fob to get in, which would render proximity key benefits relatively useless. Moving the keypad to the fob would also mean owners couldn't get into their cars without having the key with them. We don't have any clues as to when this could become a feature, but it doesn't seem like it would be difficult to implement, so it could show up in the next few years.

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...
Tue, 17 Dec 2013Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
Bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta hams it up for International Bacon Day
Wed, 28 Aug 2013This is a bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta. It is a real thing, that a real, multi-billion-dollar company designed. And it isn't even April Fools' Day. Designed for International Bacon Day, which is also apparently a thing, the 2014 Fiesta is finished in Green Envy paint - we're told black paint, like the color of a skillet, made the car look camouflaged - and features 10 gigantic decals depicting strips of tender, cured bacon.
The design, which was approved by the CEO of Benton's Country Hams, Allan Benton, show off the depth of Ford's Custom Graphics program. Unbelievably, Ford will actually start offering bacon decals to everyday customers, including (and we can't believe we're writing this) dual bacon racing stripes which will no doubt have Carroll Shelby spinning and/or salivating in his grave, and a "side of bacon," which wraps a couple of strips over the rear wheels.
Benton, who Ford claims is the King of Bacon, had this to say: "This car just makes so much sense." The Fiesta's marketing manager, Liz Elser added, "It's just awesome to drive down the road in a piece of bacon."
