Up for auction is a 1930 Ford Model A 3 window. I am listing this vehicle for my father. He will be the contact person. This is a very nice driver. The vehicle was restored about 15 years ago and has been well taken care of since. The vehicle still has the original motor and transmission. The vehicle still looks good and runs great. The engine sounds very good. A new carburetor has been installed to keep with the upkeep of the vehicle. The paint still shines and looks good and there is no rust on top or underneath to speak of. The running boards are my favorite part of these vehicles. They give it an added dimension that you just don't see anymore. This is truly a very solid automobile and you are getting it at a great price. The glass is in great condition as well as the chrome. I would say that the tires are in average condition. The vehicle drives straight down the road and does not have any problems stopping or going. As you can see by the pictures, the interior is still in very nice condition and looks like new. From what I can tell, all of the lights and signals work properly. The car is a lot of fun to drive. When something like this is on the road, everybody seems to notice. This would be a very nice car for grandma and grandpa to take their grandchildren for a ride in and reminisce about the good ole' days.
The vehicle has a clear title and is in his company's name. Any sale to a non-dealer may be subject to your state's applicable sales tax rate. He is located in Ohio and, depending on your home state, the sales tax may need to be paid here in Ohio. The title will then be put in your name and then you will need to tile it in your home state. The sales tax only gets paid once. Terms are as follows: $2000.00 down payment is due within 72 hours of auctions end with the balance paid in full within 7 days of the auctions end. Methods of acceptable payment are cash, certified funds, money orders, or wire transfer. All funds must clear the bank before vehicle will be released. No exceptions. Vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is with shipping the responsibility of the winning bidder. The vehicle can be stored in his shop for up to 2 weeks after the auction ends as long as it is paid in full. If you need extra time, I'm sure something can be worked out. He is easy to work with. There are no warranties either expressed or implied and I reserve the right to end the auction early. The vehicle is available for inspection. Either email or call Roy @ 419-302-8510. He can help with any questions that you may have. Vehicle is being stored indoors in a heated garage and can be seen anytime throughout the week. Thank you for your interest in this Model A.

I made a mistake, this is a 5 window, not a 3 window. Again this car runs and drives well! Solid and clean. Thanks and happy bidding.

Lexus gets top brand marks from Consumer Reports; Ford, Jeep hit hard
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its 2014 Car Brand Report Cards, with Lexus again reigning at the top and doing so with the same industry-topping score of 79 that it registered in last year's Report Cards. This year, the institute credited its lineup for being "usually quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient," noting it's the only brand on the list "to achieve an excellent average overall reliability score." The Car Brand Report Cars list is meant to rank the best all-around vehicles based on CR testing and reliability results tallied by subscribers it surveyed. Each brand included must have sufficient test and reliability data for at least three models, a standard which left out 11 marques including Fiat, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche.
This 2014 Brand Report Cars edition is the first of a new format in which sub-brands have been broken out from their parent brands, with Acura using this year to move up the leaderboard into second place with a score of 75 for its "reliable, well-finished and somewhat sporty models." The top three was rounded out by Audi, climbing from eighth to third by scoring a 74 for "well-crafted interiors, nice handling and good gas mileage." Audi scored highest in the road-test portion, its improved reliability aiding its rise. The top nine was completed by Subaru, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz.
Ford and Jeep weighed in at the other end of the rankings, Jeep taking the lowest overall score in the road tests and hampered by "a mix of spotty reliability." Ford was sunk by reliability issues with its MyFord Touch infotainment system which consumers found troublesome enough to negate its cars earning "solid test scores" for being "very nice to drive." Perhaps the rumored switch from Microsoft to Blackberry's QNX for the next generation SYNC will help them out. Cadillac's score also took a hit for infotainment reasons after it was the leading US brand last year, the CUE system in the XTS dragging Cadillac to the bottom of all General Motors brands.
Ford GT to be revived, Le Mans battle upcoming
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Ford dominated the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1966 to 1969, scoring four consecutive wins. Wouldn't it be great if the Blue Oval could go back to France for the 50th anniversary of that performance and show it can still compete in international endurance racing? Actually, the latest rumors indicate that could be exactly the case, and the car taking that checkered flag could be another revival of the Ford GT.
As the rumblings go, Ford wants to use a new supercar to take another crack at Le Mans, after considering some other possible alternatives. Substantiating these musings are reports that a Blue Oval rep was reportedly on hand for a recent meeting about 2016 GTE-Class rules, according to Road and Track. That would put the new GT in the same racing class as the Corvette, Ferrari 458 Italia, Porsche 911 and others.
It's not all about racing, though. If you win on Sunday, you want something to be able to sell on Monday. The revived GT is reportedly still a mid-engine supercar, but the exact engine is unclear. It's possible that it could even be shown or announced at the Detroit auto show in January, according to Motor Trend.
Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
