1915 Model T Roadster on 2040-cars
Franklin, Maine, United States
|
Freshly restored 1915 Model T Roadster. Has all the brass and mostly correct parts. A rear axle housings are from a newer "T" but I have replacement housings that will go with the car. Has a newer carburator for better performance but I have the brass Kingston also. Car had a full nuts and bolts restoration completed last June. I trailered it to one show and won 1st place. Car has been driven 2 miles since restoration. New tires, fenders, and splash aprons. NOS running boards, new seats and floor mat , plugs, rear view mirrors. Very solid original body with good wood. Paint is base/clear with stripping. Will start on mag or battery. Battery is in running board tool box. Car often starts on compression. As I mentioned there is a leak between the transmission cover and pan, I think it is because of the Aluminum cover. I have an iron cover to replace it with that will go with the car. I wanted the original cover so I lived with the leak. Kevlar bands, all is as it should be. I have the complete tool kit as well. Why am I selling? I grew up with these cars as my Dad was an avid collector. When he past away a few years back I decided I would get one for restoration just for the memories. I have several other classic cars and no time for the "T". Wanted to do it as part of my "bucket list" and now time to move on. Great little car that I want to go to a person who will use it and show it. My reserve is quite low for this car so bid to win.

Man turns Ford Fiesta into a one-car band
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The one-man band is a rather ridiculous idea, drawing up images of one person attempting to manipulate several instruments, at once, in a vain attempt at creating music. It's usually represented by silly scenes like this. Interestingly, the concept isn't much more successful when the "man" in "one-man band" is replaced with "car," as we see in this video.
It seems that someone rigged up and edited (699 times, we might add) a Ford Fiesta, a bucket, 12 PVC pipes and the natural sounds that a car makes to come up with a song. Now, we don't recognize the tune, so we've no idea if this is a cover or an original piece. And while it's hardly Beethoven, we have to admire the amount of effort the "conductor" went to in his attempt to turn a subcompact car into a musical instrument(s). Take a look (or listen) below for the entire video.
First 500 European Ford Mustangs reserved in 30 seconds [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014We're pretty sure that any initial concerns Ford had about selling the redesigned Mustang in Europe have been lessened considerably, after the first 500 Euro-spec 2015 Mustangs were been reserved in just 30 seconds. Moreover, 9,300 people attempted to snag one of the coveted orders for the all-new muscle car. Yes, Mustang, you should do quite well across the pond.
The registration event was held during the UEFA (pronounced yu-eh-fa) Champions League Final between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid.
"We knew there was huge excitement building for the new Ford Mustang coming to Europe, but the response during the UCL Final was overwhelming," said Roelant de Waard, VP of marketing, sales and service for Ford's European outfit. "It was a truly special way to kick off the Ford Mustang era in Europe."
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
