1929 Model A Special Coupe, Rumble Seat, Original, Nice Chrome, Runs Great on 2040-cars

This beautiful Historic Vehicle is road-ready. 1929 Ford Model A 2-door Special Coupe 49A. This is a rare automobile. Here's why . . . Henry Ford produced nearly 5,000,000 Model A’s,
but only 18,500 of this model, and only between July 1928 and July
1929. It is very difficult to find a Special Coupe, especially one
in such good condition as this. Don’t let this one slip away. She’s got an original 201-ci L-head engine and
3-speed transmission. It goes down the road straight, shifts
smoothly, and the 4-wheel mechanical brakes stop you just as Henry Ford
designed. Ford was once asked why he didn’t use the hydraulic brakes other
companies used. His reply, “If you have just one hydraulic leak, you
lose all your brakes. When have you ever seen all four brake rods
fail at the same time on one of my cars?” Smart move. Back
then hydraulics were pretty bad. This Special Coupe is graced with an older, excellent restoration in very good shape with a few little chips, crackling, and scratches as you would expect from a vehicle that has been enjoyed as it should be. Lots of thumbs-up wherever she goes. You can’t help but smile when you’re driving this sweet Model A coupe. The interior is in very good condition having
had a great restoration in the past and shows very well (see photos) with no
musty odors or smoke smells. It’s very clean and very well cared
for. The windows roll up and down with
ease. The windshield tilts out. The doors open and close
easily. The top is exceptionally tight with no tears. She’s in wonderful condition so you can use it right now and have a great time with the family! Or if you want, it is a great candidate for a Museum Quality Restoration, Advertising & Promotional use, a hot rod project, or a parade car. Put your friends or the kids in the rumble seat, tilt out the windshield, and go for a cruise to the drive-in or the local car show. If you’re looking for a very rare 1929 Ford
Model A Special Coupe, you won’t find a better example than this beauty –
especially at this price. The reserve is set low for the value of
this 85-year old automobile. A 1929 Special Coupe was listed recently
in Hemmings for $35,000. My reserve is set at less than half that. SOME DETAILS:

A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang
Thu, 24 Oct 2013A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.
Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium
Thu, 21 Mar 2013According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...
