Up for auction is this nice little Model A Coupe with a rumble seat. It has an older paint job & restoration that looks to be about 10-15 years ago.  The paint is pretty nice, good for parades but not show winning quality.  It has some  extras like a radiator stone guard, moto-meter heat gauge, luggage rack on the back and a very expensive overdrive built in to the drive shaft giving the car 7-9 MPH higher top end speed.(see pics) ($1200.00 to install) Engine rebuilt during restroation.  Engine starts easily every time, with no smoking at any time. It runs nice & cool.  It is very peppy and cruises nice with the over-drive! It has never left me stranded & is very dependable.Tires are in nice shape with no need to replace.  The top is nice with no leaks.  The interior has been redone in green vinyl, clean with no rips or tears.  The rumble seat is also in nice shape and fun for the grandkids to ride back there! The bumpers are in decent shape.  The doors open and close nicely as does the hood and trunk.  The glass is all good.  The lights and gauges work and the horn blows.  The cowle lights need new bulbs.  It has dual taillights for better safety after dark.  There are vacuum type wipers, but not positive if they work. Again, not a show car, however a nice daily driver.  It runs, drives, and stops just great. Dependable in good shape as a parade car or advertising piece.  Always gets a thumbs up & smiles when out cruising.  Complete with the rumble seat for the kids.  The reserve is below $9K so it is affordable.  The mileage is not known. The car is currently in a garage and can remain there till spring to allow for transportation.   Please contact me to ask questions & further discuss this car prior to the end of the auction. I think you will enjoy driving this little Ford coupe.  Good luck and bid with confidence.

Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
