Up for bid is a beautiful 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster with only 24,237 Miles from new. This car was in a Ford Showroom for over 22 years on display as a beautiful original example and then about eight years ago I meet the father & son who had owned it all those years and had done a complete body off ground up show restoration and sell the car. A friend of mine always wanted a beautiful roadster so we flipped a coin and he purchased the car. Fast forward he called me last year and I purchased his collection with this roadster. In the years he had the car he put less than a thousand miles on the car. This car was all done to its original colors of Stone Brown with deep stone gray belt moldings with Tacoma Cream Wheels and pin stripe. There are only a couple of small spots where the paint has some bubble areas near the belt edges but nothing I would touch nor takes away from the high gloss super paint on this lovely car. I have to also say that this roadster being a low mileage example has the most beautiful body I have ever seen on any Roadster. It is strait as an arrow with a beautiful fit and contours to the doors and rumble lid. This car as you see also has the dual side mounts, stone guard, moto-meter with wings, and original leather trunk with a fitted canvas cover to match the top and a complete set of side curtains with the proper boot all never used. This car also has an optional oil pressure gauge and an original Manifold heater that was a dealer installed item when the car was purchased and has been with the car since leaving the show room. A leak-less water pump as also been installed and the car has the original crank. The leather is stunning on this car as well far better than most with a lot of money spent and the car retains the original correct chrome wiper motor as well. The car rides beautiful on the correct shocks and also shifts smooth and quiet as a low mileage car should. You have white wall tires on all six wheels and are as new. Another thing I must mention is the factory extended bumper where it extends outward beyond the trunk rather than inward. This can be used either way if so desired. The entire car inside, outside and underside are just beautiful and if you want a great Deluxe Roadster don’t let this one go. This car is priced fair for its condition to sell at less than $ 30,000 and not crazy like some that are so-so cars. A lot of value here for the money. Best of luck.

Just when you thought you'd figured the fullsize truck market out, Ford goes and throws us a massive curve ball with the 2015 F-150. The big headline news aren't tow or payload ratings, though we're sure those figures will be fully competitive if not class leading, they haven't yet been announced. Instead, the big headline news Ford is highlighting are the truck's new aluminum-intensive structure and 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine. And with good reason - all that aluminum means that Ford was able to cut a massive 700 pounds from the truck's curb weight. That is going to cause all sorts of great things to happen to the 2015 F-150's driving dynamics, performance and fuel efficiency, not to mention its ability to haul heavy loads. For those customers worried about the strength of aluminum versus the more conventional steel, Ford is quick to point out that many military vehicles, such as the HMMWV and Bradley Fighting Vehicle, use a very similar sort of aluminum alloy in their construction. It's also worth mentioning that the backbone, a fully boxed ladder frame, is hewn from high-strength steel. Ford says "2015 Ford F-150 is the strongest and most durable F-150 ever," for what it's worth, claiming that "torture tested" in labs and in the real world for more than 10 million miles. What's more, the truck, in disguised form, completed all 883 miles of the Baja 1000.
We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in. And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car. Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.
Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March. Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down. An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
