1928 Ford Model A Phaeton touring car.  It is a four door, cream in color with gray pin striping and orange accent.   The car is an eye catcher and crowd pleaser.  This car is a driver (as opposed to a show car).   It has been super reliable for us (it is our personal car) and runs well.   The tires all have good tread.   The interior is in good condition.   The car is an older restoration, it has few nicks in the paint and a little surface rust (too small to see in these pictures) in a couple spots, no dents and no rust through.  The top has a patch over the driver area and some pulling off in the back.   Honestly, we don’t drive the car if it looks like it will rain (and we did not buy a convertible to drive with the top up), we have never used the top, we just leave it down.    The spring in the rear driver side door is broken; a new door latch will be included with the car.   The car is fun to drive and always draws a crowd and is a hit in parades.   I would not hesitate to take it on a long drive.   We are selling it because we are moving to a smaller place and won’t have room for all of our cars.  If you would like to chat about the car, leave your phone number in an eBay message and I will give you a call.

The car has a transferable New York registration ( NY does not issue titles for cars manufactured before 1973, see http://www.dmv.ny.gov/proove.htm  )

Naturally because this in an 85 year old car, it is sold “as is, where is” without any warranty.  The car is a good driver but in all fairness if you have not owned an antique car before, be aware that all old cars take some tinkering from time to time.  The buyer will be responsible for pick-up and any transportation.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.

GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings

Thu, 31 Jul 2014

The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.
