You are bidding on a 1929 Ford Phaeton with 47300 actual miles. Based on the serial number, this is a mid April car. The first owner put most of the miles on and it was stored up on blocks during the winter. I bought it from the second owner, a collector that was downsizing.
It had 39000 miles when I purchased it with the full intent of restoring it for MARC national judging. Based on the doors fitting perfectly, I do not believe the body has ever been off the frame. It was painted with the wrong material and striped wrong. It is upholstered and topped correctly but with the wrong materials. It was originally andalusite blue with black belt moldings. I removed the red covering from the kick panels and drivers door and found that it had been glued over the original blue panels.
The motor is original and still has Ford stamped pistons. It does have slight rod knock which I was assured, by and old mechanic, would not hurt anything. Just fix it at restoration.
To my knowledge I have everything needed for the restoration (See noted below):
      Correct windshield wiper, needs restoring.
      Full correct tool kit, except for the correct owners manual. I do have a 1928 for possible trade.
      Original top hold down straps with original buckles. Were still on the car as purchased.
      No shocks. I do have a set of numbered 1928 shocks and arms (with no pitting) for possible trade.
      Original radiator core. It was plugged and has been disassembled and carefully rodded out.
      Original seamed fuel line.
      Set of NOS Schrader valve stems.
      Used Schrader valve stem covers and caps.
      The radiator and wiring have been changed so I could drive the car on some club outings. I have the original original, correct, radiator core. It was plugged and has been      disassembled and carefully rodded out. I also have the original wiring.
       Please contact with any questions regarding parts and condition that are not clear in the description or pictures

Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.

Ford Focus PHEV on the way?

Tue, Jan 21 2014

A refreshed Ford Focus is in the works and that means a few details are leaking out. Spy shots from last month indicated the Focus will have a gaping grille just like its "One Ford" global C-segment comrade, the Fiesta. While Ford is being quiet about it, the Focus could also be getting an "Energi" option, joining the C-Max Energi and Fusion Energi in Ford's plug-in hybrid family. The Focus will likely use technology originated in the C-Max Energi that combines a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor capable of a 20-mile range, according to Autoexpress. The pure electric Focus is expected to stay in the lineup despite its slow sales; its price range should be similar to what's on the market now. The third-generation Focus looked good enough to become the top-selling nameplate in the world in 2012. Some exterior changes to look for in the Euro-spec model at the Geneva Motor Show in March include a reshaped hood, front wing endplate and rear bumper. Interior spy shots have hinted at an updated dashboard design and a simplified, less cluttered control panel with updated climate controls. Under the hood, there are quite a few power options rumored to be available - a gasoline EcoBoost with up to 123 horsepower and two turbo-diesel TDCI options, a 1.6-liter or 2.0-liter mills that would produce between 94 hp and 161 hp. Then there are new 1.5-liter diesel and 1.5-liter EcoBoost gasoline variants that meet regulations in China, Brazil and Russia.
