1929 Ford 2-door Sedan. Mostly Original Running Car on 2040-cars
Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States
|
A real popular car to either restore, hot rod or just drive the way it is. This is what a lot of people are looking for. A numbers-matching, running and driving, easy to get parts for, 85-year old car. I bought this a couple of years ago from an estate of a Model T collector. It was the odd-ball in his collection. I put a new 6-volt battery in it and drove it home with not one problem. Since then, I have started another project car which requires money and space. This car is very solid. Odometer showing 17,866 miles. No rust out areas. All glass and wood are very good. Tires are not worn or weathered. Brakes are good. Starts easily. Does not smoke. Has accessory Autolite heater and spare tire cover. Grill shell is reproduction stainless. Headlights are also stainless with sealed beams. All lights work. Windshield tilts as it should. Radiator and water pump do not leak. Top is fairly new. Transmission shifts well. A real fun car to drive. Lots of smiles from everyone. On the negative side, it does need a paint job and interior cloth. The cloth can be ordered as a kit and not too hard to install. All mechanical/metal parts are intact inside, including window trim and seat springs. The front seats are padded and covered, but are not original material. Restoration would be easy while still having a driving car. Can help with loading. Car is locally advertised, so I reserve the right to end auction early. Will require a $500.00 deposit, 5-business days after sale. Balance due before car leaves. Can hold in storage for short time. Buyer responsible for shipping. |

Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track
Sun, 10 Mar 2013We're big fans of the turbocharged Ford Focus ST, and we're plenty excited that the Blue Oval will be offering a similar treatment on the smaller Fiesta here in the United States, too. We first saw the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, and Ford has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.
But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.
It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. Scroll down to see the hot little Ford getting busy.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost
Fri, 09 May 2014I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.
