1927 Ford Model T Phaeton, Real Henry Ford Steel Phaeton, 4 Door Convertible. This car is a great car, true old school hot rod, drive any where, and enjoy. All original no rust body painted hot rod flat black, riding on a custom store bought chassis from Arkansas , nothing someone made in their garage, no worries. The chassis is all square tube, 4 link with coil overs on the rear, drop axle on the front with leafs and knee action shocks, the front suspension also has disk brakes. The car rides on smoothie wheels with white wall tires painted red. The fronts are skin and the backs are wider to give it that more aggressive look. The motor in the car is a early flathead ford 59 A-B, topped off with a 3x2 setup, with lake pipes and turn downs right beside the cowl. The motor is only running off the center carb right, I've found that their wasn't much of a differences running all three carbs, besides the fact that I get a little bit better mileage running off one carb, no real change in horsepower. The motor is backed by a C4 automatic transmission, and finished up at the rear with a late model Chevrolet rear end. The gas tank for the car is under the cowl, and you fill the tank with the air vent on the top of the cowl. The car uses the original shifter setup to give the car that old school look on the inside with the high handle and original knob, but is set up to work with the automatic, just straight forward and backward on the handle. The car actually has a smooth ride for itself, very smooth and hits the rode great. The car has a large radiator to accommodate the later model flathead motor, as well as a electric fan that pulls air, it comes on when the car is cranked and stays on the hole time the car is running. I've never had any issues out of the car over heating. The car has headlights as well as bright lights, the switch is on the floor just to the left of the brake pedal. The car also has caddy tail lights, that includes brake lights and turn signals. The interior of the car still retains two front seats and a rear seat and is capable of hauling 4 people. The steering wheel is removable, if someone needs to assist themselves in getting in the car or wanted to just keep people from thinking about stealing the car. The car has a full set of gauges, oil, volts, temp, and speedometer, which works and shows the actually miles on the car. The car has only 2,882 miles on the entire build. Pretty much a bran new car, that has been done a couple years but only been out for shows and cruse ins. The car is dirty in the pics, never really thought about cleaning the car because its a driver, one that gets enjoyed and all. Car will clean up better, specially the motor area, if someone wanted that cleaner hot rod look for car shows and all. I always thought that the little bit of dirty look gave the car a more rustic look. Like I said the car hits the road great, no issues, no problems, and everything on the car works perfect. The car is for sale locally and is subject to be taken off If sold. The car is sold as is with no warranty. A 25% deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end and the balance within 7 more when the car is to be picked up or arrangements are made for the car to be shipped. If you have any questions about the car please fill free to ask and I will gladly answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks and God Bless, Kody 251-454-5455

2015 Ford Mustang fuel economy ratings leaked
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Thinking about buying a new Mustang, but want to know what kind of fuel economy it'll get? Well we have our first indication as the pony-car enthusiasts over at Mustang6G.com have gotten a hold of the Monroney window stickers for a few of the new 2015 Mustang models.
Although the V8 model is not among them, we can now see how the EPA has rated those models with a half dozen pistons or less. The Mustang EcoBoost with the turbo four and a manual transmission has been rated at 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 on the highway. The V6 manual gets 17 city and 28 highway, while the V6 automatic squeezes out a bit more in the city at 19 mpg but carries the same 28 highway rating.
By way of comparison, the latest Chevy Camaro with the V6 and a stick shift gets the same 17/28 EPA rating as a similarly equipped new 'Stang, and the V6 automatic Camaro gets 18/27 (slightly behind the Ford, but if you opt for the Camaro 2LS with its V6, automatic and 2.92 rear axle ratio, you'll be looking at 19 and 30).
Ford recalls over 953,000 vehicles to replace Takata airbag inflators
Fri, Jan 4 2019DETROIT — Ford is recalling more than 953,000 vehicles worldwide to replace Takata passenger airbag inflators that can explode and hurl shrapnel. The move includes over 782,000 vehicles in the U.S. and is part of the largest series of recalls in U.S. history. Included are the 2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX, the 2010 and 2011 Ford Ranger, the 2010 to 2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan, and the 2010 to 2014 Ford Mustang. Some of the recalls may be limited to specific geographic areas of the U.S. Takata used the chemical ammonium nitrate to create an explosion to inflate airbags. But it can deteriorate over time due to heat and humidity and explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister designed to contain the explosion. At least 23 people have been killed worldwide and hundreds injured by the inflators. Ford says it doesn't know of any injuries in vehicles included in this recall. Dealers will replace the inflators. Ford will notify owners about the recall starting on Feb. 18, and the company has replacement parts available for dealers to order, said spokeswoman Monique Brentley. In previous Takata recalls, parts availability had been an issue. Owners can go to this Ford website and key in their vehicle identification number to see if their cars and SUVs are being recalled. The same information will be available soon at the NHTSA recall website. More than three years after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration took over management of recalls involving Takata inflators, one third of the recalled inflators still have not been replaced, according to an annual report from the government and a court-appointed monitor. The report says 16.7 million faulty inflators out of 50 million under recall have yet to be replaced. And 10 million more inflators are scheduled to be recalled this month, including the Ford vehicles. Safety advocates said the completion rate should be far higher given the danger associated with the inflators. The recalls forced Takata of Japan to seek bankruptcy protection and sell most of its assets to pay for the fixes. The inflators grow more dangerous as they get older because ammonium nitrate deteriorates due to high humidity and cycles from hot temperatures to cold. The most dangerous inflators are in areas of the South along the Gulf of Mexico that have high humidity. Related Video:
Next Lincoln Navigator to drop V8 in favor of V6, but Ford Expedition might get both
Tue, 12 Mar 2013A great many buyers fled from full-size body-on-frame SUVs to car-based crossovers in large measure to save fuel. But that doesn't mean there's still not a buying audience for more traditional truck-based utility vehicles, and those consumers doubtlessly wouldn't mind saving some dollars at the pump, too. According to Motor Trend, those shoppers might be in luck.
That's because the magazine has confirmed that Ford isn't walking away from the full-size SUV segment, and it's poised to do something about its offerings' economy ratings, too. According to MT, global Lincoln director Matt VanDyke has hinted that the next Navigator may drop two cylinders and go with a V6 model - the current model gets just 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway from its 5.4-liter V8. The obvious fitment would be Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, an engine that has spread like kudzu throughout the rest of the Blue Oval's large vehicle lineup.
Downsized turbocharged engines like Ford's EcoBoost franchise have come under fire as of late for not delivering their EPA fuel economy ratings, but their benefits extend beyond consumption - the 3.5L offers superior power and a better torque curve than the naturally aspirated V8. MT also suggests that Ford's 3.7-liter V6 could form the base engine for the next Navi - it has similar horsepower but a lot less torque than the current 5.4L. That may be less of a problem with the next generation tipped to go on a diet, which could level the playing field somewhat.
