1929 Ford Model A Pickup Truck - Rat Rod Or Restoration Project Clear Title on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
|
For Sale is a 1929 Ford Model A Pickup Truck. Engine does not run but turns freely. I purchased this truck from the previous owner's son. His father had begun to do a complete restoration in the late 1990's and was not able to complete it prior to his death. The truck was running and driven prior to him starting the restoration. The truck had been stored in a barn in Grafton North Dakota till I purchased it in July 2012. It has been stored in my garage since I purchased it.
The truck is 95% complete and comes with many extra parts. I purchased a new" top roof and cab wood kit"(both still in the boxes), along with a new wiring harness and new set of floor boards. There is also a new muffler and a good used one that will go with the truck. There are some missing items that still need to be purchased (ignition switch,hoses,back glass etc). The generator and starter are included but will probably need rebuilt. The front windshield and passenger glass are broken but intact. the driver's window roles up and seems fine. There is rust on the frame and body as expected for a vehicle of this age. There are rust holes in both side kick panels and in the inside front of the driver's side bed. Overall solid truck. The side splash aprons are included(not shown on truck but are pictured). I purchased an extra used pair that will go with the truck . The bed wood is gone but I have put plywood in the bottom to hold extra parts. The seat cushions don't appear to be the correct ones but those are the ones that came with it. There are 2 sets of extra wire wheels . 1 set that fit's the 28-29 years and 1 set that fits the 30-31 years. There are also extra parts that are shown in the pictures. The steering wheel is not mounted but can be very easily. I am selling the truck because I have too many projects and this one is way down on the list. Truck comes with a clear North Dakota title. Vehicle is for local pick up only. Truck is located in Tucson Arizona. Truck Sold AS IS . No Warranty I also have a rebuilt flathead 4 cylinder engine that would fit this truck . It does not go with the Truck but is available to purchase separately if desired. Please email with questions or concerns. A $500.00 deposit is due at the end of the auction. Payment in full is due when vehicle is picked up. Thanks for looking |

EPA says fuel economy test for hybrids is accurate
Mon, 26 Aug 2013
The EPA says it stands behind its fuel economy test for hybrid vehicles following controversy about the testing process after Ford C-Max Hybrid customers and automotive journalists alike struggled to achieve 47 miles per gallon, the advertised mpg number, Automotive News reports. Ford responded to the issue almost two weeks ago by claiming that a 1970s-era EPA general label rule was responsible for the inaccurate mileage numbers, rerating the C-Max Hybrid's mpg numbers and offering customers rebates. Ford later said it didn't overstate the C-Max Hybrid's fuel economy and that it was surprised by the low numbers.
Ford technically didn't do anything wrong because it was following the general label rule, but agency regulator Christopher Grundler says the automaker was exploiting a loophole when it came up with the hybrid C-Max numbers, and that the testing process remains accurate. The general label rule allows vehicles that use the same engine and transmission and are in the same weight class to share fuel economy numbers, but it doesn't take into account other factors such as aerodynamic efficiency, which affects hybrids more drastically than non-hybrid vehicles. Ford originally used the Fusion Hybrid economy figures for the C-Max Hybrid and claimed the engineers didn't realize that its aerodynamic efficiency would affect fuel economy as much as it did.
Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
Automotive Grade Linux will be the backbone of your connected car
Fri, Jan 6 2017Creating a backend for a secure, reliable, and expandable infotainment system is costly and time consuming. The Linux Foundation, a non-profit organization, has set out to promote and advance the Linux operating system in commercial products. Automotive Grade Linux, or AGL, is a group within the Foundation that seeks to apply a Linux backend to a number of automotive applications in a variety of vehicles from various suppliers and manufacturers. AGL's goal is to create a common, unifying framework that allows developers and manufacturers to easily implement applications across platforms. Currently, the focus is on infotainment systems, but AGL has plans for instrument clusters, heads-up displays, and eventually active safety software. At CES, a display from Panasonic showed a completely digital and customizable dashboard that allows information and apps to be moved from the gauge cluster to the infotainment screen and back, all through the use of gesture and touch controls. Although the organization has been around for five years, it's really only been in the past three that the group has been working hand in hand with automakers and suppliers. The first two OEMs to participate, Toyota and Jaguar Land Rover, have since been joined by Mazda, Suzuki, Ford, and, as of this week, Daimler. The latter is important as until now most of AGL's partner's have been based in Japan or the US. Other partners include suppliers Denso, Renesas, Continental, Qualcomm, and Intel. AGL want's to supply roughly 80 percent of the backend, allowing partners to then finish and refine the Linux system for each individual application. Think of how the Android operating system is refined and customized for individual smartphones from Samsung, LG, and Motorola. While the final product looks different, developers can have an application that will work across all AGL systems. Because it is open source, anyone can use and develop for AGL. You can even go onto the group's website and download a copy right now. There is also a software development kit available that helps facilitate app creation on the platform. Vehicle development cycles take roughly five years, so there currently are no cars that run an AGL backbone available for consumers. AGL Executive Director Dan Cauchy says products should be hitting the market later this year, with even more coming in 2018. Right now, the industry is relatively fragmented when it comes to infotainment and related systems.
