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.  We require a $500 non refundable deposit within 24 hours after the sale. Preferable by Pay Pal.

Watch how Ken Block spent his weekend in Barbados

Thu, 22 May 2014

Regardless of what you think of his skill as a racer, Ken Block is an expert showman. At this point, he has a career of showing up around the world to do vehicular stunts, and he's still able to go racing as well. It's a pretty sweet niche to carve out. Recently, Block was in Barbados to participate in Top Gear Live and the first event of the Global Rallycross Championship season, and Ford Racing produced a short video to show off his exploits.
It looked like a great show. Block got to race Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes-Benz Formula One car and had a very weird crash during a Rallycross race that put his Ford Fiesta on its roof. Top Gear also released an extended look at Block and Hamilton's spectacle with the two of them expertly sliding around. Scroll down to watch the videos and get a taste of Block's tropical racing adventure.

Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.

Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
