1928 Ford Model A Coupe on 2040-cars

Year:1928 Mileage:49245
Location:

Cheraw, South Carolina, United States

Cheraw, South Carolina, United States

Model A coupe that is an inherited vehicle. It's been in my family for roughly 40 years. I don't know much about Model As, so I'm including lots of photos. This car is sold as-is. I will try to answer questions to the best of my ability.
Clear title that lists this coupe as a 1928.  This car was taken off the road and stored in a dry barn from 1983-2000.  We pulled it out in 2000 and a local Model A mechanic had it running in just a few days. We drove the car for a few years and its been back in the same barn ever since. The engine is free from what I can tell.  It is all steel.
I will assist with shipping in any way I can.  The cost of shipping is the buyer's responsibility.
If you have any questions, just ask!  Thank you for looking.

If you would like to speak to me over the phone, just send me a message and I will message my cell number.  Thanks.

I also forgot to mention that the cloth top has a decent sized hole on the top center.  (It obviously needs replacing anyway)


On Jul-16-14 at 18:58:05 PDT, seller added the following information:

Forgive me for not being a car guy, but I've done some research about turning the crankshaft pulley to see if a motor is free.  I tried to do it today, but its not easy to get to because of the radiator being in the way.  I couldn't move it with my hand, but I also had a poor grip.  I will try to get someone to put a wrench on it and find out for sure before the auction ends.  Thanks!


On Jul-17-14 at 15:56:44 PDT, seller added the following information:

I pushed on the fan belt to tighten it and then turned the fan.  Viola, the crankshaft pulley turned so I can now say that the motor is FREE.

Also, the serial number on the motor is A227694 and the serial number on the title is the same.

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.

NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.

2013 Ford Mustang V6

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Secretary Trim, Evolved
There was a time not so long ago when opting for a base Ford Mustang meant getting little more than some sheetmetal, an anemic four-cylinder engine and what may very well have been the world's most disappointing automatic transmission. During the Fox Body years, Ford seemed hell-bent on living up to Carroll Shelby's derogatory description of the coupe as little more than a runabout for demure office assistants, and the result was a base model with fewer sporting intentions than a Dilbert day calendar.
Some 20 years later, hopping behind the wheel of an entry-level pony is an entirely different experience. With all of the menacing aesthetics of the brawnier GT, a well-equipped interior and a drivetrain that toes the line between efficiency and power better than few before it, the 2013 Ford Mustang V6 is an attractive option for buyers in the big coupe market. But is it attractive enough to forgo the beastly GT?
