1929 Ford Model A Coupe Street Rod -- A Mechanically Modern & Sweet Ride on 2040-cars
Dunbar, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Up for your consideration is a restored 1929 Ford Model A Coupe. I purchased the car in a local barn and oversaw the restoration from the beginning, 5 years ago. What you see in this listing are current pictures of the restored car, with the original steel body and frame, fiberglass fenders, a Chevrolet 454 engine, and Turbo 400 automatic transmission. The car is very sound mechanically & electrically, and modern in many aspects. No corners were cut. Electric fuel pump, electric fan, Walker 3 core radiator, 2 catalytic converters, Holley carb (manual choke), HEI Distributor with vacuum advance, power disc brakes (front), drums (rear), powered trunk lid, chromed oil/trannsmission pan, transmission oil cooler, chromed alternator, GM steering column (tilt), Ford 8" rear end, 3:55 locker gear ratio, TOO MUCH TO LIST... The undercarriage of the car is nice; floors are new... Exterior-wise, the body was completely stripped and painted tinted orange primer surfacer (Dupont) and cleared; note that there are some chips in the door jamb area. Car has tinted glass and American Racing rims: 14" in front and 15" in rear. The only aspect of the car that needs attention is the interior; as you can see in the pictures, a complete interior job is needed.
This Model A has been babied; it lives in a garage and is equipped with quality parts. It is a sweet ride that is ready for driving and even showing. Not to brag, but I have won a number of trophies and turned quite a few heads. You can get in the car, turn the key, and take a trip in style. A perfectionist could repaint to their liking and install matching interior, then turn the key and take a trip in style. Title is clear in hand. While the actual miles are unknown, it has been 1,600 miles since the rebuild. The car passed PA inspection. The car is located in Dunbar, PA and can be shown by appointment. Please email any questions. While I want to sell the car and find it a good home, I do not appreciate low-ballers and tire-kickers. The parts on this car alone are well worth what I am asking. Car is sold AS IS; no warranties or returns. A $500 non-refundable Paypal deposit is required within 48 hours of auction close; the remainder is required within 7 days of auction close via cash in hand or cashier's check (the car will not leave until check has cleared). Buyer is responsible for picking up or shipping the car. |

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014
The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
Ford rakes in record $2.5b profit during Q1 of 2016
Thu, Apr 28 2016Fears that the auto industry is due for a downturn may be fading. Ford posted record profits in the first quarter of 2016, the company announced Thursday. Chief financial officer Bob Shanks said Ford enjoyed its best quarterly performance in history, generating operating profits of $3.8 billion and a record profit margin of 9.8 percent. Overall, the company's $2.5 billion profit in the quarter more than doubled from the 2015 quarterly results. "The first quarter was an absolutely terrific start to the year, an all-time record for the company, with very strong performance across the business," said chief executive officer Mark Fields. "We're excited about our future and confident in our ability to deliver long-term growth and profitability as we expand our business model to be both an auto and a mobility company." During the quarter, Ford announced the creation of Ford Smart Mobility, a new subsidiary that would vet future mobility projects in the realm of car-sharing, fractional ownership and autonomous deployment. The company also kicked off a billion-dollar makeover of its Dearborn, Michigan campus and headquarters. The company's after-tax earnings of $0.68 per share trumped Wall Street's expectations, and were significantly up from $0.39 per share a year ago. The results were buoyed by the company's fourth consecutive quarter of growth in Europe, which comes after a long period of stagnant sales. Ford's earnings results come amid reports that April car sales are on pace to jump 4 percent year over year, which would make it the best-selling April in history. Kelley Blue Book projects that car sales will reach 1.51 million this month, placing the industry on track for 17.5 million vehicles sold in 2016. Even as SUV and crossover sales drive the market, analysts say Nissan and Honda are positioned to benefit from renewed interest in mid-size cars. "Following a disappointing March, we expect sales to get back on track in April with SAAR in the mid-17 million range," said Tim Fleming, analyst for Kelley Blue Book. "Increased fleet sales and rising incentive spending among automakers remain the factors to watch, but the retail demand appears to be holding steady, signaling the industry's strong run isn't over quite yet."

Ford recalls 1.3 million Fusions, MKZs: Steering wheels could come off
Wed, Mar 14 2018When driving a car, the steering wheel is only expected to move in a rotational fashion, either clockwise or counter-clockwise. When it moves in some other direction, something is wrong, and when it moves the wrong way enough that it is no longer attached to the steering column, that's a really, really bad thing. And apparently, according to a recall issued by Ford, there are over 1.3 million Ford Fusions and Lincoln MKZs that are at risk of this happening. And at least two accidents and one injury have been attributed to the issue. Ford says the problem is that the steering wheel bolt that keeps the wheel attached to the column might not provide enough torque, resulting in the bolt slowly loosening and working its way off the column. The good news is that the fix is really simple. Ford will install a larger bolt with more threads along with a larger nylon patch to keep it all locked down. The fix is completely free to owners. Cars affected by the recall include 2014 to 2017 Fusions built built at the Flat Rock plant in Michigan between August 6, 2013, and February 29, 2016. Model year 2014-2018 Fusions and MKZs built at the Hermosillo factory in Mexico are also affected. So if you have one of those sedans, please get in touch with your local dealer to have the issue addressed. Related Video:
