I am selling this 1930 Model A Tudor that I purchased from the heirs of a fellow who had died. I'm inclined to call it "barn fresh" but cannot as some restoration has been done on it. It has very nice sheet metal which makes it a good potential for restoration. You may not have to buy any sheet metal for it, but that is your decision. I, personally, would buy only new running boards/splash aprons for it. I would use all the rest of it - including the extra front passenger fender that I am including with it.

Following are my visual observations of it:

---Hood - nice, but two very small dents on one side which can be filled with body filler. The louvers are nice.

---Fenders - there are none of the "normal" breaks found on most original fenders, that normally require a weld. The drivers front fender, and both rear fenders are solid with some small denting. The passenger side front fender is pretty bad

so I will send another, much nicer fender with the car.

---Cowl - on the drivers side there is some rust out, which you can buy a patch for, or do what I have done, which is cover it with fiberglass (6 years ago-still nice and not noticeable) (see picture). Also 2 holes drilled - antenna??? Passenger

side is good.

---Doors - drivers side is good, no rust thru or holes on bottom. Passenger side has some rust thru on lower outside, but not on door bottom. Can buy patch for it or fix with fiberglass.

---Body - behind doors (both sides) and around the back - looks fine.

---Body frame - this part of a car, if it is rusted out, is difficult to fix. On this car, except for one place (the short 45 degree piece by the clutch pedal), this body frame is strong and looks fine. You can replace this one piece if you wish, but I

don't feel it is necessary as body frame is strong and this piece is covered by the floor mat.

---Gas tank - looks fine.

---Windshield frame - what I can see and feel look fine.

---Glass -- back window and 3 side windows look fine, one side window has a crack in it.

---Windshield - there is some separation between the pieces so it should be replaced, especially with safety glass so one doesn't severely hurt themselves in an accident.

---Roof -- a limb fell on it and dented it..

---Interior wood - Looks like it may have been replaced because it appears solid,, except for the piece over the windshield which perhaps should be replaced. The roof bows and chicken wire in the roof all look good as if they have been

replaced.

---Dash = is complete but rusted. The speedo reads 10,100 miles - original ????

---Floor boards - basically useable and solid, except for the piece in the back seat foot rest, which has a few soft spots which may or may not need replacing.

---Radiator - looks good, in fact it is an ORIGINAL which is unusual to find one still in use - maybe the mileage is correct???

---Radiator shield - very nice.

---Lights - nice buckets but seal beams. All original internal parts are available from vendors (repro parts which are fine). One tail light is present.

---Tires - four (4) NEW tires on the car.

---Horn - one present but not original Model A type.

---Wiper - original vacuum type Model A style.

---Steering wheel - not bad, is restorable.

---Interior moldings --side windows and back window are present.

---Handles - missing one door handle.

---Firewall - decent with couple of extra drilled holes, and larger hole for heater manifold plus one extra approx. 2" hole

---Motor - stuck but complete with generator, starter, water pump, coil, carburetor.. No restoration here that I can see.

---Chassis - complete with differential, tranny, clutch housing, and frame. But no visible restoration done on it.

---Title -none, heirs were unable to locate it.\

---Running Boards - solid, no rust thru, but horizontal parts (that you step on) are welded on plates. This will require

you do drill holes in them for bolts to fasten them to frame braces/ You can still cover these with normal rubber covers

but there would be small bumps in the rubber where the bold heads are.

---Seats - front seat frames present and look okay, rear seat wooden frames also present and look fine. Some springs are present, but I wouldn't use them.

This car is the basis for a nice restoration because the sheet metal is in such good condition. The mechanical parts are such that

a "Sunday mechanic" can do much of his own work, especially with the number of restore/repair manuals available.

THERE IS NO TITLE TO THIS CAR. THE HEIRS OF THE OWNER COULD NOT LOCATE IT. I HAD TO FILL IN THE TITLE BLANK IN ORDER TO LIST IT. IN MY PERSONAL PAST, I HAVE HAD A TITLE CREATED FOR A CAR I HAD PURCHASED, SO I KNOW IT CAN BE READILY DONE. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS FACT DETRACT FROM YOUR PURCHASE OF THIS CAR, BECAUSE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE A TITLE CREATED. I wanted to put "No title" in the title spot, but it wasn't allowed.

2024 CES Mega Photo Gallery: Honda concepts, a VinFast truck and flying cars galore

Thu, Jan 11 2024

The 2024 rendition of CES is coming to a close, and per usual, it was full of all the funky, futuristic tech the show is long known for. It’s also full of cars and legitimately forward-thinking tech related to cars, and we were on the ground to see it all and bring photos to you in this Mega Gallery.Â A boatload of manufacturers attended and made big reveals, from the Star Wars-like Honda concept cars to a pickup truck from VinFast, the sort of debuts we got to see ran the gamut. Of course, there were plenty of reveals and vehicles on the floor that were even more outlandish than concepts from traditional OEMs like Honda and Mercedes. Check out this flying Xpeng car as an example. Or perhaps the flying Mansory car. Apparently, flying cars were a theme. Anyway, make sure you scroll down to check out the various reveals and photos of the cars and technologies revealed at the 2024 CES in our barrage of galleries.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.

Ford recalls 2017 Lincoln Continental for headlight problem

Tue, Oct 11 2016

Ford Motor Co. is already recalling the 2017 Lincoln Continental for a headlight problem, the automaker announced Tuesday. The HID headlights may have been assembled with LED lens that don't have the correct lens optics to meet federal visibility requirements for turn signals. Ford says it is unaware of any accidents related to the issue. The company will replace the headlamp assemblies, if needed. The safety compliance recall covers 1,876 Continentals built from June 14 to Sept. 23 at Ford's Flat Rock factory south of Detroit. Most of the cars are in the United States; 49 are in Canada, and one is in a federalized territory. Only about 300 cars are in consumers' hands, a spokesperson said. Customers can use a Lincoln service program where dealers will pick up their Continental, fix it for free, and return it, the spokesperson said. Lincoln has high hopes for the Continental. The flagship sedan uses one of Lincoln's most iconic names and features a luxurious interior, available 400-horsepower V6 engine, and safety features like adaptive cruise control and a 360-degree camera. Lincoln recently announced an elaborate marketing campaign shot by renown photographer Annie Leibovitz to generate interest in the Continental. In a separate recall, Ford also said Tuesday that 60 Edges from the 2015-16 model year are being recalled to update their antilock braking system module.
