1930 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Project on 2040-cars
Champlin, Minnesota, United States
|
I do not have the storage capabilities to keep my A protected from the winter this year so here it is! I bought it as a stalled project from the previous owner. My plan was to set the body on a Av8 chassis that I have been working on. Life happens so my plans have been stalled for the time being. I know Henry made a million of them but ripping apart a fairly complete car is hard for me to do. I will not say this is a rust free car but the rust [surface rust] looks to be concentrated to the underside of the car. As you walk around the car there is no apparent rust through on the body. The paint is very presentable. The running boards are the only part of the car that I found rust out. The fenders do have a few bumps and bruises along with a few stress cracks normal for a 84 year old Model A. The bottoms of the rear fenders were tweaked while being loaded or unloaded off a trailer on one of the trips made to have the car inspected by the MN DMV so the lost title could be reissued. I do have a clear title for the car issued in 2012. There is a marking on the title that the title is a bonded title. The top had been replaced late in the cars life and looks very nice. The interior looks to be all there. It has the rear bench seat and front buckets that are dirty and stained. I believe all the original pieces for the floor are there. The glass is all intact but there are some cracks in some of the glass. The doors open and close like new. The tires look to have very few miles on them. They are old and have been sitting and at least one of the tubes has a slow leak so that tire likes to go flat. The prior owner removed and had the original engine rebuilt and put back in place. That is where the project stalled. The radiator and grill shell were never put back into place and the engine was never fired up. The prior owner had the car since 2002 so that work was completed between then and in 2012 when I purchased the car. I have never looked into the engine any further because I was not planning on keeping the original chassis for my project. I will help with your shipping logistics as well as I can. My schedule is free most any evening [Monday to Saturday] but daytime hours are very limited. I may be able to assist with delivery within an hour of Minneapolis. Please ask questions...

Trump tells Detroit 3 CEOs he wants more US jobs, calls environmentalists 'out of control'
Tue, Jan 24 2017As expected, President Donald J. Trump met with top executives from FCA, Ford, and General Motors this morning as part of a larger push to generate jobs in America. "I want new plants to be built here for cars sold here!", Trump said in a tweet ahead of the meeting. Not everything said in the meeting was made public, but the President later tweeted that he had a "Great meeting with automobile industry leaders." FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne, Ford chief Mark Fields, and GM's Mary Barra all echoed the positive vibes after the meeting. In a statement, Barra called the discussion "very constructive and wide-ranging," adding that it focused on "policies that support a strong and competitive economy and auto industry," and "that supports the environment and safety." That's noteworthy, because Trump is reported to have said "I am to a large extent an environmentalist. I believe in it, but it's out of control." Fields, speaking to reporters after the meeting, said, "We're excited about working together with the president and his administration on tax policies, on regulation and on trade to really create a renaissance in American manufacturing." The Ford CEO was specifically talking about Trump's withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership. "We've repeatedly said that the mother of all trade barriers is currency manipulation, and TPP failed in meaningfully dealing with that, and we appreciate the president's courage to walk away from a bad trade deal," he said. Marchionne focused on American manufacturing in his statement after the meeting. "I appreciate the President's focus on making the US a great place to do business. We look forward to working with President Trump and members of Congress to strengthen American manufacturing." Perhaps equally as interesting as what was said and who was invited are what wasn't said and who wasn't invited. Trump has been very vocal about his distaste for US automakers' plants in Mexico, but no mention was made of the North American Free Trade Agreement by Trump or any of the Detroit CEOs after the meeting. We also have to wonder if Trump plans to meet with representatives from German, Japanese, and Korean automakers that have made massive investments into American plants and produce a large number of cars in this country.

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Ford 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.
