  Conclusion

 

  Up for bid is my 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Town Sedan. I purchased this beautiful car from the same family that owned it since 1955. I knew the son who is now 62 years old and who’s father purchased this car for his wife as a second car in 1955. This car started life out just as you see it and was restored about six to seven years ago from a beautiful strait example as you will see from the pictures using all the original sheet metal from what I can tell and is just stunning throughout. I am sure I do not have to tell you how hard it is today to find cars like this but when you do and they are done like this is the results are just beautiful and will last a life time.

Let me begin that when this car was restored they did a complete body off the frame nut & bolt high quality restoration from bumper to bumper and all the mechanicals as well with less than two thousand miles since. This is a Murray factory body and still has the tag on the firewall. It is an early 1930 example and one of the first cars built in the year and was always a complete black car. The paint as you can see is just stunning in everyway anyplace you look with no cracking or spidering or shrinkage of any kind and the results are of AACA show quality level. The mileage of 79,736 we believe to be original since new in 1930 looking at notes and talking to the family. You can see that the brake & clutch pedals and little ware to them that would back this up and this was the reason I did not want to cover them with the add on rubber pedals, which by the way if the new buyer wants I will include a set with the car, just remind me. The fit on the entire body is of the very best I have seen and there is not a wave or sign of any body work to be found. I had the red pinstripe done as per judging and because of this being an early 30 car and all black it calls for Red Vermilion stripe as later in the year around September Ford went to Apple stripe. The interior in this car was also done to a very high correct level with over eight thousand spent just on the inside and has all the correct three sets of shades and pull straps along with the original rear interior light that came only on the deluxe town sedan. The top is the same level of quality and to be honest I don’t I have had anyone sit in the back, it’s that new. All the stainless is in great shape with no dings and the bumpers are all stainless rather than chrome plated and in my opinion much better even though they cost a lot more they are well worth it. The car comes with the moto-meter with the wings and has the running board step plates as well. The car is equiped with a 6-Volt alternator for better driving during evenings with the lights on. The underside right now is a little dusty and I took the pictures before I really did a good detail as I like to do but so far is coming out beautiful as there are not many miles on the restoration. The cars runs and shifts just beautiful as you can see & hear from the videos and all the glass and windows are perfect and everything is in top working order. The one thing that you should do is put a windshield wiper motor. The original was sent out to be restored and we never got it back. I will go through what I have and if I have one I will give it with the car. Just to add another note, there was directional signals installed and done properly with no ugly extra add on lights and work through the cowl lights and double tail lights and with cars today on modern roads I think it is a must for safety so long as they are done right like this.

Well I know I am going on here but this car is so special of an example that it will be very hard pressed to find and example like this for the money. I have priced this car low with a reserve under $ 20,000 and the reason I am mentioning this is to let you know its here to sell and you may never find a beautiful example like this car for the money. The last one I sold that I had owned sold for $ 4,000 to 5,000 more than the reserve I have here and this is better in some ways and the fact it was not passed to many owners and keep all original and not pieced together. Best of luck to all.

Is it time for American carmakers to give up on dual-clutch transmissions? [w/poll]

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Last week, in the midst of Detroit's first days seeking relief in Chapter 9 of the bankruptcy code, Automotive News contributor Larry P. Vellequette penned an editorial suggesting that American car companies raise the white flag on dual clutch transmissions and give up on trying to persuade Americans to buy cars fitted with them. Why? Because, Vellequette says, like CVT transmissions, they "just don't sound right or feel right to American drivers." (Note: In the article, it's not clear if Vellequette is arguing against wet-clutch and dry-clutch DCTs or just dry-clutch DCTs, which is what Ford and Chrysler use.) The article goes on to state that Ford and Chrysler have experimented with DCTs and that both consumers and the automotive press haven't exactly given them glowing reviews, despite their quicker shifts and increased fuel efficiency potential compared to torque-converter automatic transmissions.
Autoblog staffers who weighed in on the relevance of DCTs in American cars generally disagreed with the blanket nature of Vellequette's statement that they don't sound or feel right, but admit that their lack of refinement compared to traditional automatics can be an issue for consumers. That's particularly true in workaday cars like the Ford Focus and Dodge Dart, both of which have come in for criticism in reviews and owner surveys. From where we sit, the higher-performance orientation of such transmissions doesn't always meld as well with the marching orders of everyday commuters (particularly if drivers haven't been educated as to the transmission's benefits and tradeoffs), and in models not fitted with paddle shifters, it's particularly hard for drivers to use a DCT to its best advantage.
Finally, we also note that DCT tuning is very much an evolving science. For instance, Autoblog editors who objected to dual-clutch tuning in the Dart have more recently found the technology agreeable in the Fiat 500L. Practice makes perfect - or at least more acceptable.

Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?

Mon, Feb 27 2017

We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
