Sorry to be this way but lately there has been a rash low feedback bidders bidding, winning the auction and then not following through with the sale. We take our auctions seriously and just want you to do the same. This auction is for a 1930 Ford Model A Coupe. All Henry Ford steel. This car had the same owner for the past 48 years. We are proud to offer this wonderful piece of history. The car started life in the state of Wyoming.It was then sold to another gentleman in Wyoming who then sold to the prior owner here in Maine who has owned it up until last week. He had the car painted at that time , installed 1936 wire wheels and tires and has been like this since then. He put the car up in 2010 .Oil was full and antifreeze was still nice and green. A new battery was installed , fresh fuel and it fired right up. Motor runs whisper quiet. Transmission shifts great. Drove it up the road and back and it actually drives quite nice for an 84 year old car. No pulling , chattering or wobbeling. Steering is nice and tight . The body is in amazeing condition. Absolutely rust free and without repairs. The sills are like brand new. The trunk, pans, and wheel tubs are beautiful. Doors open and close perfect and fit like a glove.Windows roll up and down fine. Windshield cranks out. All the fenders are in great shape. I see on the drivers front fender a tiny crack on the bead. The hood does have a few waves on the drivers side section . All the lights and electricals work . Interior is in good usable shape. Headliner is all intact. Paint has dulled down over the years but I think the car looks amazeing just the way it is. You will notice in the pics the horn is missing. It had a Chevrolet horn on it and it was taken off.I will include it . Also had a radio installed but was removed and will be included. I have all 5 original 19 inch wheels that will be included also. There are all kinds of directions you can go with this car .Personally I would leave it the way it is drive and enjoy it. Of course that is up to the new owner. We will have a Maine registration and proper dealer transfer forms for a smooth transaction.

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years
Wed, 01 May 2013While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
