1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster Fully Restored on 2040-cars

Sayville, New York, United States

1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Roadster.  Complete nut and bolt restoration completed in 2004.  The restoration was done to specifications even higher than when it was first produced, but retains a 100% factory original look.  Restoration was done by a Smithtown, NY family for themselves with a long history in the restoration business.  They restored the car to keep, but unfortunately illness eventually forced them to sell. 

There was no expense spared when restoring this Model A.  The car is all original Ford steel, no reproduction panels were used.  The crankshaft was blueprinted/balanced to reduce the typical vibration when the engine's running.  The water pump was machined out for bearings instead of the original bushings to prevent the typical coolant leaks plaguing all Model A's.  The bearings are completely invisible from the exterior so it doesn't detract from the 100% factory original look.  The top and interior are from Lebarron Bonney, the foremost authority in Model A interiors/tops.  The bumpers are reproduction, but better than original in all stainless steel.  The car has dual sidemounts.

Since it's completion in 2004, it has logged just over 1400 miles.  The car was primarily used to drive to local shows, sunday afternoon drives etc and has a great patina now.  It still looks like a very fresh restoration, considering it's been 10 years since completion, but has been driven and carefully enjoyed.  I have owned it for over a year and half now, but the rumble seat is getting a little tight to fit my kids in now.  This car has no needs/issues and is ready for the next owner to drive and enjoy.  

The car runs/drives as good as it looks and I encourage you to take a look in person before the auction ends.  It is located in my climate controlled garage in Sayville, NY.

Ford Mustang challenges Lamborghini in amazing drift battle

Fri, Dec 18 2015

Engines scream and tires billow with smoke as Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Daigo Saito stage a drift battle through an abandoned Japanese resort that looks like a Russian village in this stunning clip. The high-performance ballet of these amazing machines sliding around makes this one of the best videos of the year. To fight this duel, Gittin straps into his 550-horsepower Ford Mustang, and Saito meets the pony car's challenge with a drift-prepped Lamborghini Murcielago. The drivers hit a curving road and show expert car control as the men slide these very different vehicles just inches from each other. Eventually, night descends, and they add some fire to the scene to give the stunts a more apocalyptic look. The production values for this short clip are phenomenal, and the editing makes the viewer feel right in the middle of the action. If you want to get behind the scenes of this impressive display of drifting, Speedhunters did a great job capturing the event in photos. Related Video:

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?

Wed, 09 Oct 2013

Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models

Thu, Mar 2 2017

The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
