Up for bid is a 1930 Deluxe Town Fordor Sedan that has undergone a complete high quality body off nut & bolt restoration to a very high degree. I have owned this car for about seven years and purchased the car a few of years after restoration from the man who did it. I had sold the car to a friend for his museum collection in New Jersey and he only had the car a few years when I purchased it back from him. Except for starting the car and moving it from time to time not to sit in one spot it was hardly used and very few miles have been put on the car. This car never saw the rain and every time I used it I went over the car from top to bottom detailing inside and out. This car was restored from a great example using the original Ford Model A color of Ford Maroon for the body with a black roof and belt line and black fenders with aurora red wheels with vermillion red pin stripe as per judging standards as was the entire car. This body is strait as an arrow with great door fit with no sagging or anything and these doors close like a new car and line up perfect. This is of course an all steel car with every Ford option at the time when new with dual side mount’s, dual side mount mirrors, cowl lights, moto-meter with the wings, Ford Script windup rear view clock mirror, stone guard, deluxe luggage rack with the correct contoured trunk that is made for this body style, Firestone white wall tires, like new with the correct metal tire stems as per judging standards, all the correct shades on the three windows, pull straps and the correct LeBaron Bonney brown town sedan mohair interior with the rear fold down center arm rest including the two side arm rest as well as the correct interior dome light that works of course. I have a traffic finder and compass as well in the car. There are directional signals properly installed for safety and the original pop-out ignition that works great is still in the car and gone threw when the restoration was done. The engine was done to a high level using the correct valves for unleaded fuel and all balanced and is one of the best running engines I have ever had in a Model A car in over 40 years of owning these lovely cars. The transmission shifts smooth and the steering is tight and does not wonder. I have also installed a hood prop inside for ease of having the hood staying in place and an air cleaner is on the correct Zenith carburetor that was just rebuilt. This car has never overheated on me no matter how hot it may get and will always run cool. Everything is in top working order and just recently the horn stopped working but I found out what it was. The horn itself is perfect but the soldered tip on the horn rod down at the box came off so that will be the only thing that needs to be done unless I can do it before its sold, if not I will make an allowance for the purchase of a new horn rod. Overall this car is a show quality automobile and ready to tour at a moments notice without hesitation that rides and drives like a quality Model A should and will score well and is one of the nicest examples of a town sedan you will find both in restoration, color , body fit, etc. You could take this car to an AACA event and with little detailing still come in the running and win a prize. As you can see I took the movie and pictures before the weather turned colder but waited before putting it on Ebay as I thought I was getting a building to put my collection but that feel through so now I must make room or I would never have put this car up for sale. Best of luck to all.

Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response

Fri, Jan 25 2019

Part of the beauty of children is that they can find worth in something adults might deem unworthy or overlook entirely. Five-year-old Patch Hurty didn't see garbage or a broken piece of a car when he spotted a Ford badge lying on the side of a road. He saw an artifact, a souvenir, a start to a collection he could only dream of. Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics tells the story of Patch and his quest to turn that one lost badge into a museum of manufacturer logos. According to the article, Hurty is a car fanatic through and through, even using car names as a way of learning to read. After finding the Ford badge near his Connecticut home, he and his mom put together a plan to reach out to dozens of automakers, confessing his love of things on four wheels. In each letter, Patch assembled a picture of himself standing next to one of the cars, and a penny to pay for whatever he hoped was sent his way. The response was unexpectedly and overwhelmingly positive. Of the more than 50 letters he sent out, including to obscure or defunct companies such as Bugatti, Suzuki, and Saturn, a majority responded with warm notes and some type of souvenir. Two of the coolest responses came from Lincoln and Bentley. Lincoln sent a sketch of a Continental (all car lovers enjoy drawing cars, right?), and Bentley sent a wheel center cap. How awesome is that? The story reminds us of something that can easily be lost in all of the negativity involved with the auto industry: Everybody is in this because of a common infatuation with automobiles. For more details on the souvenirs Patch received and accompanying photos, read the rest of the story.

U.S. automakers unite in opposition to possible Trump vehicle tariffs

Mon, Feb 18 2019

WASHINGTON — The U.S. auto industry urged President Donald Trump's administration on Monday not to saddle imported cars and auto parts with steep tariffs, after the U.S. Commerce Department sent a confidential report to the White House late on Sunday with its recommendations for how to proceed. Some trade organizations also blasted the Commerce Department for keeping the details of its "Section 232" national security report shrouded in secrecy, which will make it much harder for the industry to react during the next 90 days Trump will have to review it. "Secrecy around the report only increases the uncertainty and concern across the industry created by the threat of tariffs," the Motor and Equipment Manufacturers Association said in a statement, adding that it was "alarmed and dismayed." "It is critical that our industry have the opportunity to review the recommendations and advise the White House on how proposed tariffs, if they are recommended, will put jobs at risk, impact consumers, and trigger a reduction in U.S. investments that could set us back decades." Representatives from the White House and the Commerce Department could not immediately be reached. The industry has warned that possible tariffs of up to 25 percent on millions of imported cars and parts would add thousands of dollars to vehicle costs and potentially devastate the U.S economy by slashing jobs. Administration officials have said tariff threats on autos are a way to win concessions from Japan and the EU. Last year, Trump agreed not to impose tariffs as long as talks with the two trading partners were proceeding in a productive manner. "We believe the imposition of higher import tariffs on automotive products under Section 232 and the likely retaliatory tariffs against U.S. auto exports would undermine - and not help - the economic and employment contributions that FCA, US, Ford Motor Company and General Motors make to the U.S. economy," said former Missouri Governor Matt Blunt, the president of the American Automotive Policy Council. Some Republican lawmakers have also said they share the industry's concerns. In a statement issued on Monday, Republican Congresswoman Jackie Walorski said she fears the Commerce Department's report could "set the stage for costly tariffs on cars and auto parts." "President Trump is right to seek a level playing field for American businesses and workers, but the best way to do that is with a scalpel, not an axe," she added.
