1930 FORD MODEL A

For Sale is my friend's 1930 Ford Model A, 2 Dr. 5 Window Coupe with the Rumble Seat. Bob, the owner, is getting up in age and the car is just a little too much for him to drive anymore. As second owner, Bob has maintained and cherished this car since he has owned it.

The car went through a complete nut and bolt restoration 2002. The engine, transmission and rear end was completely taken apart and rebuilt to factory specs. The exterior was painted it's original Andalusite Blue with Black fenders and trim. The car only has a few thousand miles on it since the restoration. Every original body panel was removed and painted separately. There was no rust or bondo repairs made to the car. It is a very solid, rust free vehicle. The paint finish is very nice. No major chips, dings or dents anywhere on this car. The undercarriage was also detailed and looks as good as the exterior. The frame was completely media blasted and painted.

Mechanically, everything works except for the wiper motor. The brakes are fairly new and work very well. The engine fires right up and idles nicely. The transmission shifts like new. The tires are at 80% wear except for one tire which is about 30% wear remaining.

The interior is like new. It was finished with LeBaron Bonney fabric that looks authentic and new. No rips or tears or even wear marks. The headliner and door panels are also like new.

I'm starting the bidding at $10K but I have a very low reserve on the car. It's worth much more than that but the owner says it's time to sell it. If you have questions, please call me at 574-965-4550 or email me at: kenprieboy@comcast.net. Thanks for looking and bidding!.......Ken

Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief

Thu, 29 May 2014

The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible makes inappropriate appearance in Detroit [w/video]

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

With the polar vortex fresh in the minds of Autoblog's Detroit-based staff, we're finding it funny that any manufacturer would choose January in the Motor City to show off a new and highly anticipated convertible to the general media and public for the first time. But Ford has done just that, giving us our first real peek at the new Mustang Convertible in the flesh.
The new Mustang Convertible is more or less unchanged from the standard coupe, with some subtle styling tweaks to accommodate the retractable soft top. Engine and transmission choices are identical to the hardtop, although we should expect slightly lower performance due to the hardware for the roof. Like the coupe, neither prices nor performance metrics have been published yet for the convertible.
