1929 Ford Model A Sport Coupe
Beautiful example of an original Henry Ford steel car. Straight, solid, rust free body and fenders, no patch panels, runs and drives, car was stored in Sandwich NH for years (been in Sandwich since when it was bought new) recently has transferred through a couple of owners. I don't believe the car has ever been taken apart, appears to have had one repaint many years ago. Fenders are in excellent shape, no cracked beads or any repaired beads. Body is near perfect, I could not find any signs of rust or patch panels. This is a barn fresh car that has been cleaned up, car has great patina, very presentable (up close paint has minor scratches/ chips here and there). Great car to drive and enjoy this summer. Distributer just rebuilt with modern upper and lower plate. 

I believe the rumble seat upholstery is original, shows wear and has some minor tears and has cotton strings attached because previously had a seat cover(with a little bit of elbow grease seat should clean up).  The rumble seat cover matched the front seat, previous owner carefully removed cover.  I have the cover and it could be very easily installed again (seat covers are old but in great shape).  Front seat still has seat cover installed (refer to pics), feels like original upholstery is underneath, condition of upholstery under cover is unknown.  Top is in fair condition for its age, refer to pictures.  Windows roll up and down nice, all glass in good condition.

Car can be seen in Rochester NH. Would love to keep this car, but don't have the space.  Its getting harder and harder to find straight solid vehicles of this vintage.

NOTE: NH does not require titles for this year vehicle.  This is being sold with a bill of sale only (I can get it notarized if you would like).

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

Ford Fiesta ST orders off to strong start

Fri, 17 May 2013

We at Autoblog love the new little Ford Fiesta ST, and apparently, folks in Europe are pretty impressed with it, as well. According to Ford, the automaker's European arm has already logged 3,000 orders for the new hot hatch since it hit dealerships this March. The US-spec car, which will only be available as a five-door, will go on sale in the United States this summer.
What's perhaps most interesting about the Fiesta ST ordering is that the majority of customers appear to be ordering high-spec cars. According to Ford data, 60 percent of customers have opted for the leather interior with Recaro buckets, and 90 percent have selected the upgraded 17-inch wheels (seen on our test car, above). Spirit Blue has been the most popular color, commanding 27 percent of all orders. As for the technology upgrades, 19 percent of customers have ponied up for the Sony stereo with navigation.
To recap, the Fiesta ST is offered with Ford's 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, putting out 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. We had an absolute blast flinging the hot Fiesta through the French Alps, and we can't wait for this sharp little hatch to make its way over to the States.
