Hi, up for auction is my 1931 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan. This is a beautiful car, runs and looks amazing as seen in the pictures. This was a frame off restoration, down to every nut and bolt. No expense was taken when the Tudor went thru the restoration. Done to exact specs, the car was restored as it would have left from the factory. All material on the restoration is period correct, and done to perfection. The attention to detail is amazing. This is a older restoration, and, has only logged 124 miles since it's completion!! She starts up every time and on the first twist of the key, she runs and drives excellent. I just had the 'ol mighty "A" down the country road last weekend for lunch, she get's more attention and thumbs up than you will know what to do with!! She sounds great, and is solid on the road. The windows roll up and down with ease, all the glass is perfect, doors open and close awesome. The '31 has the luggage rack and trunk that will go with the sale of the car as well. The pictures speak for themselves, but if there is a specific picture you would like to see, please ask. The Ford is located here in the San Francisco bay area, and is available to be seen and drive/enjoyed in person, just let me know!!

Please feel free to contact me with any and all questions you may have, you can call direct at (650)400-8836

Thanks for looking, good luck on the auction and...Happy Bidding!!

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.
