For bid and sale is a 1929 Model A Ford coupe with rumble seat. Actually, due to my age and health concerns, I'm selling 2 Model A's (pictured), but this ad is for the 1929 coupe. This vehicle is originally from Texas, but was purchased several years ago in the Joplin, Mo. area. After completing work on my 1930 sedan, I started on the coupe. This was a body off restoration with all or most things done which I knew to do, including new body felt, POR 15, improved motor mounts, and new wood as needed. The following describes the vehicle: converted to 12V for better lighting and easy starting, new black wall tires, gas tank boiled and sealed, modern type shock kit, new stone guard, mirrors and parking lights, spare tire cover, all chrome new or refurbished, all glass new or good, transmission and running gears fine, professional paint job 2 tone green with black bottom (AutoDynamics -- Belington, WV -- shines great), complete engine rebuilt (McCartney -- French Creek, WV), less than 1 hour on engine, interior panels and headliner from LeBarron Bonney, main seat and rumble seat done by (Hillbilly Upholstery, Philippi, WV), plus many miscellaneous items too numerous to list. I have only driven this vehicle once around the block (runs fine) but did not like the handling which was likely due to the older 7 tooth (non-adjustable) steering gear -- a new 2 tooth gear would be far better. Like my 1930 sedan, this car has been sitting in my garage for 2-3 years but I do start it periodically. This is a very nice coupe, essentially new in many respects, and inspections are welcome. Ordinary forms of payment acceptable. Also advertised locally. Bob Reger 304-823-1992.

Ford pulls official support from top-level NHRA teams
Sun, 11 Aug 2013As the smallest team in the sport, it wasn't really a surprise when Dodge decided to pull out of NASCAR, but Autoweek is reporting that Ford is looking to pull the plug on its professional-level NHRA sponsorships following the 2014 season. With attendance and television ratings down, the article reports that Ford is just backing out of the top series but will remain active in the Sportsman classes of racing, which are geared more toward the grassroots and semi-professional racers.
This means that one of drag racing's biggest names, John Force, will be left looking for new sponsorship after next season. Force, 64, has been with Ford for 17 years, winning 15 championships in that time and winning almost half of all Funny Car events in his Mustang since he started working with Ford in 1997, but after 2014, there could be some big shakeups at John Force Racing.
According to the report, Force would consider is moving over to the Top Fuel dragster series, although he could also move to another manufacturer to remain in the Funny Car series. With Ford on the way out, this leaves just Toyota and Dodge as the remaining active automakers in the highest levels of drag racing.
Ford's first PHEV in Europe could be C-Max
Fri, Oct 17 2014Ford could start selling a plug-in hybrid in Europe pretty soon, according to at least one of its executives. Whether it's willing to do so is another story. But if the market perks up, so will the company. The automaker can "quickly" develop a plug-in hybrid version of its Mondeo, the sister car to the Ford Fusion, Automotive News Europe says, citing Ford executive Uli Koesters. The subject of Ford selling plug-in hybrids in Europe is more vital than ever since Volkswagen recently started selling its first PHEV (a Golf) there. VW will also debut a Passat PHEV next year. Koesters was less certain about whether there was sufficient European demand to warrant a production PHEV from Ford. Europe's biggest-selling plug-in hybrid through the first half of the year was the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. That model, according to JATO Dynamics, moved almost 9,000 units through June. Toyota sold almost 4,300 Prius Plug-in Hybrids in Europe during that time period. And we can't be sure Ford's first European PHEV will be the Modeo/Fusion, either. In fact, Ford's first plug-in hybrid for Europe is more likely to be the C-Max, John Gardiner, a Ford spokesman in Europe, told AutoblogGreen. He would only say that it would be sold "in selected markets soon," without being more specific. Ford's two PHEVs in the US have been selling well this year. Through September, sales of the Fusion Energi PHEV almost tripled to 9,323 units, while Ford C-Max Energi PHEV sales were up 51 percent to 6,486 units.
Ford, Ram in heavy-duty towing spat
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Every pickup truck commercial has the brand trying to convince us that its model is the biggest, brawniest vehicle on the block. But Ford and Ram appear ready to really throw down the gauntlet and scrap over the towing figures for their heavy-duty models, and it could potentially end up in court.
The issue revolves around what it means to be best in class. Ford claims that its 2015 F-450 (pictured above) has a max tow rating of 31,200 pounds, compared to 30,000 pounds for the Ram 3500 (right). However, both companies market these heavy haulers as having the top towing in their class. According to Automotive News, Ford is threatening legal action if Ram doesn't back down.
The situation isn't as simple as just comparing the numbers, though. First, the two companies calculate their towing capacities differently. Ram adheres to the SAE J2807 rating, while Ford uses its own internal system. Although, as the company introduces new models, they are certified using the SAE standard. "When an all-new F-Series Super Duty is introduced, it also will use SAE J2807," said Ford to Autoblog in an emailed statement.
