1929 Ford Model A Coupe: Traditional Hot Rod on 2040-cars
Fischer, Texas, United States
1929 Ford Model A Coupe: Great old school hot rod. 305 sbc with a mild cam, Edlebrock alum intake and 600 cfm carb, 350 AT, Camaro rear end with drum brakes, dropped front axle with disc brakes. Hairpin suspension front and rear; crossover springs and shocks in front with coil-over shocks in the rear. New starter and alternator (within the past year), new window regulators, new top wood and top and new driver's door latch. Parts of the top are framed using 1 x1 tubing. I drive this car a LOT and it's been very dependable. Well-built car with a full TS frame and Vega steering. Car runs great, drives well and is comfortable to drive once you get used to it. Not particularly quick but, it'll run as fast as you have the nerve to stay in it. REALLY likes to run at hi-way speeds. Steering is very responsive and car is very stable in turns. No unusual tire wear. Fuel tank is a 10 gallon poly tank. Car seems to get around 20-22 MPG. Only gauges are a tach, oil pressure and water temperature. Oil pressure is always strong and the car never gets over 175-180 degrees even in the middle of summer. All glass is in the car and good. One quarter glass has two cracks and the windshield has a chip but, I think they add character to the car. The seat is from a Suzuki Samurai and tilts forward providing some storage inside the car. There is a package tray in the rear that could easily be modified to provide more leg room, if desired. I'm just under 6'-0'' tall and fit comfortably. My son, who is 6'-3'', has a little more trouble driving it. Body is all original steel, never cut, pretty straight and better than most. No rust-through. The only issue you'll have to watch for is that the top will leak if left in the rain. Clear Texas title (as a 29 Ford) in my name. All in all, this car has been absolutely dependable. Its a great, fun car to drive. Buyer responsible for transport. Can assist on this end as needed. No warranties whatsoever.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
Ford made three big mistakes in calculating MPG for 2013 C-Max Hybrid
Tue, Jun 17 2014It's been a rough time for the official fuel economy figures for the Ford C-Max Hybrid. When the car was released in 2012, Ford made a huge deal about how it would beat the Toyota Prius V, which was rated at 42 combined miles per gallon, 44 city and 40 highway. The Ford? 47 mpg across the board. How did Ford come to this place, where its Prius-beater turned into an also-ran? Well, after hearing customer complaints and issuing a software update in mid-2013, then discovering a real problem with the numbers last fall and then making a big announcement last week that the fuel economy ratings of six different 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles would need to be lowered, the C-Max Hybrid has ended up at 40 combined, 42 city and 37 highway. In other words, the Prius trumps it, as daily drivers of those two vehicles have known for a long time. The changes will not only affect the window sticker, but also the effect that the C-Max Hybrid (and the five other Ford vehicles that had their fuel economy figures lowered last week) have on Ford's compliance with greenhouse gas and CAFE rules for model year 2013 and 2014. How did Ford come to this place, where its Prius-beater turned into an also-ran? There are two technical answers to that question, which we've got below, as well as some context for how Ford's mistakes will play out in the bigger world of green vehicles. Let's start with Ford's second error, which is easy to do since we documented it in detail last year (the first, needing to do a software update, was also covered). The basic gist is that Ford used the general label rule (completely legally) to test the Fusion Hybrid and use those numbers to figure out how efficient the C-Max Hybrid is. That turned out to be a mistake, since the two vehicles are different enough that their numbers were not comparable, despite having the same engine, transmission and test weight, as the rules require. You can read more details here. Ford's Said Deep admitted that the TRLHP issue is completely separate from the general label error from last year. Now let's move on to last week's announcement. What's interesting is that the new recalculation of the MPG numbers – downward, of course – was caused by a completely separate issue, something called the Total Road Load Horsepower (TRLHP). Ford's Said Deep admitted to AutoblogGreen that the TRLHP issue had nothing to do with the general label error from last year.
Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron
Tue, Jan 3 2017Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.
