For sale- 1915 Model T Ford speedster

Came out of an estate where it sat for years. We purchased the car and started working on it for a friend, hoping he could use it, but it's not going to work for him. We have run the engine and it sounds good, and put the transmission through its gears and they seem to work fine. We did shift the Ruckstell a few times and everything sounds good but we have not driven the car on the road because it's not insured yet. The body, paint and brass are all in good to very good condition. Here is a list of what the car has and what we replaced

Replaced --
• New 12 volt fuel pump, filter and hoses,
• New 12 volt battery
• Radiator hoses and water tube (radiator leak repaired)
• Headlight switch
• Engine oil- 30 weight non-detergent
• Rebuilt starter motor and Bendix,

The car has --
• Model A Ford crankshaft,
• Waukesha Ricardo head
• Bosch front plate distributor
• 12 volt generator

• 1932 Ford exhaust manifold
• Downdraft carburetor
• Large drum Ruckstell rear end

• 12 volt fuel pump
• Beautiful brake & tail light
• Headlight & dash light- all lights work
• Good overall paint
• Working Ahooga horn
• A nice new Aluminum Hood that is too long and needs to be trimmed to fit

This is a project car and there still some work to do like - Fit the hood, New spindle bolts and bushings. As you can see by reading everything above- this is a lot of car for the money.

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
