1929 Ford Station Wagon- The forerunner of today's SUV- This Woodie was lovingly restored by an older gentleman and his friends from the Model A Club. It has all new mechanics, including a completely rebuilt engine. The wheels and many other items were powder coated to resist rust. It retains all the original 3 rows of seating, and the upholstery and top fabric has been done by LeBaron-Bonney Company. It is original Model A except for an alternator, seat belts, and signal lights. Oh, and a CB radio for events with the club. The restoration has been done for about 12 years and there is some wear from normal use. The pictures were taken right out of winter storage, and it will shine up nicely with a good wash. The custom made side curtains are authentic and store under the body in the factory sealed metal storage box. These are a must for those damp nights and chilly mornings. It has correct rain gutters, an accessory clock mirror and a Boyce Motor-meter to dress up the radiator. Also included is the original generator, a stainless steel gravel guard for the radiator, a jack, crank handle, engine splash pans, and another powder coated wheel and black wall tire.
This is a great car for family bonding, touring and conversation. It gets a lot of attention wherever it goes, and we reminisce of the good old days. I am classifying it as an above average driver. It is not a fresh restored car, but slightly used. I have chosen a fixed price auction and set a price that is very reasonable. It is an affordable classic woody that will only appreciate in value, but the experience is priceless. Please call with any questions Greg (860) 913-4680

Ward's reveals annual 10 Best Engines list for 2013
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Ward's Auto has released its annual 10 Best Engines award winners. The 2013 list covers the full width and breadth of the internal combustion spectrum, from a spate of efficient four-cylinders to the most powerful production V8 on the planet.

The supercharged 3.0-liter V6 from the Audi S5 held on for the fourth consecutive year, and BMW earned two spots on the list with its turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder and turbo 3.0-liter inline-six.

Chrysler, General Motors and Subaru each garnered a spot on the list as well for the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500, the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the Cadillac ATS and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder the Subaru BRZ, respectively.

Detroit Three autoworkers could get huge bonuses
Mon, 06 Jan 2014For a long time, being a line worker for one of the Detroit Three has meant living with an uncertain future. With the health of American automakers on the rise, though, things are also starting to look up for the men and women building the cars. The latest sign that things aren't bad? Big profit-sharing checks.
According to The Detroit News, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler could end up paying over $800 million to 130,000 workers as part of a profit-sharing plan. According to The News, the economic impact of these profits in Michigan alone could exceed $400 million, besting the NFL's Super Bowl, MLB's All-Star Game and the NHL's Winter Classic for their economic impact.
This is the third straight year the Detroit Three have issued profit-sharing checks to UAW employees, and for many workers, the checks are as close as they'll get to a raise, due to the most recent contract between the union and the manufacturers. On average, employees at GM and Ford receive $1 for every $1 million in North American (not just the US) pre-tax profits. Chrysler, meanwhile, gets a similar deal, although the Auburn Hills-based company calculates profit sharing using 85 percent of the brand's global profits.
