Up for bid is a 1930 Deluxe Town Fordor Sedan that has undergone a complete high quality body off nut & bolt restoration to a very high degree. I have owned this car for about seven years and purchased the car a few of years after restoration from the man who did it. I had sold the car to a friend for his museum collection in New Jersey and he only had the car a few years when I purchased it back from him. Except for starting the car and moving it from time to time not to sit in one spot it was hardly used and very few miles have been put on the car. This car never saw the rain and every time I used it I went over the car from top to bottom detailing inside and out. This car was restored from a great example using the original Ford Model A color of Ford Maroon for the body with a black roof and belt line and black fenders with aurora red wheels with vermillion red pin stripe as per judging standards as was the entire car. This body is strait as an arrow with great door fit with no sagging or anything and these doors close like a new car and line up perfect. This is of course an all steel car with every Ford option at the time when new with dual side mount’s, dual side mount mirrors, cowl lights, moto-meter with the wings, Ford Script windup rear view clock mirror, stone guard, deluxe luggage rack with the correct contoured trunk that is made for this body style, Firestone white wall tires, like new with the correct metal tire stems as per judging standards, all the correct shades on the three windows, pull straps and the correct LeBaron Bonney brown town sedan mohair interior with the rear fold down center arm rest including the two side arm rest as well as the correct interior dome light that works of course. I have a traffic finder and compass as well in the car. There are directional signals properly installed for safety and the original pop-out ignition that works great is still in the car and gone threw when the restoration was done. The engine was done to a high level using the correct valves for unleaded fuel and all balanced and is one of the best running engines I have ever had in a Model A car in over 40 years of owning these lovely cars. The transmission shifts smooth and the steering is tight and does not wonder. I have also installed a hood prop inside for ease of having the hood staying in place and an air cleaner is on the correct Zenith carburetor that was just rebuilt. This car has never overheated on me no matter how hot it may get and will always run cool. Everything is in top working order and just recently the horn stopped working but I found out what it was. The horn itself is perfect but the soldered tip on the horn rod down at the box came off so that will be the only thing that needs to be done unless I can do it before its sold, if not I will make an allowance for the purchase of a new horn rod. Overall this car is a show quality automobile and ready to tour at a moments notice without hesitation that rides and drives like a quality Model A should and will score well and is one of the nicest examples of a town sedan you will find both in restoration, color , body fit, etc. You could take this car to an AACA event and with little detailing still come in the running and win a prize. As you can see I took the movie and pictures before the weather turned colder but waited before putting it on Ebay as I thought I was getting a building to put my collection but that feel through so now I must make room or I would never have put this car up for sale. Best of luck to all.

My phone number should you need any further details is; 914-413-3092

I accept all checks, money orders and credit cards including Pay-Pal, personal checks must clear my bank before I can let the car go. A deposit from the winning bidder of $ 1000.00 will hold the car till you can come and see it and if this car is not as described in this add I will refund your deposit back to you in full 100% No Questions Asked.

Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.

Autoblog Minute: Ford Ranger, UK Mustang, Hyundai Hybrid

Fri, Aug 28 2015

Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over the Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of the Toyota Prius and a new Hyundai. Autoblog's senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the weekly recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of Prius and a new Hyundai. I'm Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute weekly recap. 2011 was the last time we saw Ford's midsize pickup in the US but according to a report from the Detroit News we could see production of the Ranger at the [00:00:30] Dearborn automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant as early as 2018. Ranger could compete with the Chevy Colorado and perhaps revive the compact and midsize pickup market for Ford, but the future of Ranger in the US depends a lot on Ford's ongoing negotiations with the UAW. About 2,000 orders for the 2015 Mustang were placed in the UK, tying up production of the pony car until July 2016. According to details in a press release from Ford UK, [00:01:00] it looks like Brits are a lot like their American cousins, opting for the 5.0 liter V8, with Race Red as the popular color of choice. Photos of the 2016 Toyota Prius leaked generating a lot of buzz over the styling. This fourth generation Prius will have some new competition as spy shots of a new Hyundai also surfaced this week. The car is said to be a hybrid and a bonafide "Prius fighter." Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, [00:01:30] including the latest in FCA rumors for 2016. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.
