1931 Model A Ford Roadster on 2040-cars
Hawkins, Texas, United States
1931 Model "A" Roadster with rumble seat & twin fender mounted spares. The body is a new Brookville replica made from steel, no fiberglass anywhere. All fenders, aprons, running boards, rumble lid and aprons are new reproduction. The only original body part is the gas tank which was vatted and coated. There is no old metal in the car. No filler or patches..... the chassis was stripped, blasted and painted. Every nut and bolts was restored and/or rebuilt to like new condition. I built this car for myself and wanted it to be completely trustworthy for touring but health issues have arisen and the car needs a new home. The engine has a complete rebuild, new babbitt and all internal parts. It runs perfectly. It is all stock except for a 3:54 ring & pinion higher speed rearend ratio. Still 6 volt with a generator. The entire brake system was rebuilt with new parts. It stops great. New L/B top and interior + rumble seat area. All the seat spring are new as well. The paint is single stage PPG. New WWW tires and new tubes. The wind-wings are deep cut & polished etching. I have driven the car 240 miles and it purrs. No problems. It is ready for the open road. It has a tool box in front and on the rear. It is as solid as any you will ever find. I have restored a lot of Model A's and won the Dallas MAFC Car of the Year Award in 2004 for a restored Cabriolet. This car would be another strong contender in that event as well. If you are looking for a really good car to drive, this is sure worth a close look. I will send photos, videos and answer your questions honestly. Check my feedback over the past 15 years. Every buyer has said nice things and many still communicate or send Christmas cards. Clear Title. Make a reasonable offer. I don't hear well so if I miss your ring I will sure call back. 903-360-7116.
The small car is a 6 volt electric Power Wheel model that can be driven by a small child or towed with the tow-bar in parades. The car and charger are free to the buyer if desired. Grandkids love the small car and at parades and car shows it is the main attraction. |

Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
