This Model T is a 1913 roadster pickup. The description of the Model T: The T was painted in late 2012, and the seat cover was done about the same time. The body is maroon and the fenders, running boards, splash aprons are black. The floor mat is new. The engine has been modified with a 12 volt system, with alternator, electric start, halogen headlights, LED tail lights, however there is no "stop light". The electric starter was added for ease of starting but can still be crank started if you choose. There is a clear Texas title in my name and the numbers on the title match that on the engine.. The bed on the pickup was built according to the correct original design and uses the correct fittings. We have made road trips of 80 to 100 miles or more with no problems and is regularly driven to church and around town on nice days. The Model T starts and runs on magneto, the correct tool box and carbide generator are mounted on the running board. The white tires are in good condition with the "NonSkid" tread design. There is plenty of good tread remaining on the tires. The "white" on the front tires is good, however the rear tires tend to turn grey over time. The rear tires are "white" tires but to keep them looking good I use a rubberized white paint about once a year to keep them looking good. A spare can of white tire paint is included with the sale. I cannot attest that the engine is a 1913 engine, however it is easily started and runs as quiet as any Model T I have ever driven or listened to. The motor number on the engine is 178724 and checking with the Model T website the engine number originated in late 1912, but that doesn't mean it is a 1912 or 1913 manufactured engine. But I can say that the engine is in very good driving condition, it doesn't smoke and starts and runs right on down the road very well. Please look at the engine pictures and if you have any questions regarding the engine you may want to check with someone you know that is a Model T expert------I'm not. But it is a Model T engine for sure, all 20 horse power of it. The car is for sale locally and the auction may be ended without notice, transportation is the responsibility of the purchaser. You are invited to make a personal inspection of the car prior to bidding if you like. I don't think you will be disappointed but you never know how someone else will look at a car or truck. The preferred method of payment is by wire transfer.

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.

Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.

Ford Announces Four Recalls, 1.4M Vehicles Affected

Thu, May 29 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013. Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though. "Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software." The most recent generation of the Ford Explorer is suffering from a similar malady, thanks to an intermittent electrical connection (we think that means short circuit) in the steering column. Like the Escape and Mariner, manual steering would still be available in the event of a power failure. Ford will recall 195,527 examples of its Explorer, 177,500 of which are in the US. This recall covers model years 2011 to 2013. According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has stated that Ford will inform owners of affected vehicles by July 25. Ford is also recalling 200,000 Taurus sedans, over a corrosion issue in the license plate lamp. This particular recall, which covers vehicles from model years 2010 to 2014, is limited to drivers in northern climes. Vehicle owners in southern states are free to pass on the recall. Finally, 82,576 Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln Zephyr/MKZ sedans from 2006 to 2011 are being recalled because of floormats that can interfere with the accelerator pedal. Dealers will replace the offensive floormats with newer examples. "Ford is committed to providing our customers with top quality vehicles. We are equally committed to addressing potential issues and responding quickly for our customers," Felker wrote.
