1927 Model T Ford Four Door, Straight Steel Body, Many New Parts. Hard Work Done on 2040-cars
Hamilton, Michigan, United States
The Ford Motor model T commonly
known as the Tin Lizzie, is an automobile that was produced by Henry Ford's
Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908 to May 27, 1927. It is generally regarded as the first
affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class
American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including
assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting. The Ford Model T was named the world's most
influential car of the 20th century in an international poll. The Model T was the first
automobile mass-produced on moving assembly lines with completely
interchangeable parts, marketed to the middle class. Henry Ford said of the vehicle: "I will build a car for the great
multitude. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for the
individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials,
by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering
can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary
will be unable to own one – and enjoy with his family the blessing of hours of
pleasure in God's great open spaces. Get yourself a great piece of
American history. Imagine this car could
have been the last car Henry Ford watched come off the line on May 27, of
1927. This car needs a new home and all
the hard work has been done. The motor
has been gone through and there is one new piston and new gaskets. Transmission has new forward and reverse
bands. The carburetor is rebuilt and
works well. This car wiring has completely
been replaced from key switch to all electrical parts, as well as the coil
boxes rebuilt. The car has electric
start on a 6 volt system, with a new battery, but also runs well off the
magneto. This four door car is all steel
and is very straight with very little rust.
All the window and door mechanics work but does need some glass
work. There are a few things that need
to be done. It will need new tires. The interior needs finishing and some glass replaced. There is a small box of parts that go along
with this car that has a horn and all the door parts. Good luck bidding. Any questions call 616.836.3424. Also check out Video on Youtube |

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores
Tue, 29 Apr 2014The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang to cost $52,995?
Mon, Dec 1 2014The 2015 Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang was one of the shining stars of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show. And the Blue Oval's latest muscle car might even have reason to burn a little brighter if a recent rumor about its price proves true. Best of all are rumors that an even more potent version of the Shelby is potentially on the way. According to Horsepower Kings citing unnamed Ford sources at the LA Auto Show, the 2015 GT350 carries a starting price of $52,995, and the Tech package adds a further $2,995 on top of that. There's also the claim of a Track package for an undisclosed price. However, it doesn't look like LA is the last we'll see of the newest Shelby because the source also alleges that a top-rung GT350R is under development with bigger brakes, modified aerodynamics and sportier tires. This rubber-burner is reported to be unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. Assuming these claims are correct, it puts the Shelby in fighting form against its two Chevrolet Camaro rivals. Ford reports that the GT350's 5.2-liter V8 pumps out over 500 horsepower and more than 400 pound-feet of torque. At $52,995, it would undercut by a couple of grand the $55,505 (before destination) base price of the 580-hp 2015 ZL1. The super 'Stang might also beat the 505-hp Z/28 with its power rating, while being vastly cheaper than the track-focused Camaro's $72,305 price. This could be quite the performance shoot-out.
