 Up for auction is a real nice example of a late 31 Ford Model A rumble seat coupe with the indented firewall.

I bought the car from a widow who said it was her husbands main obsession and play thing for the last few years.

It was bought as an old restoration that he was improving upon.  I loosened the inner panels for inspection and it looks to be extremely solid with the only repairs I could find was in the bottom of the front cowl, that was fixed very nicely with metal or lead, nothing else was found. 

At some point the car was treated to a frame off, as everything on the undercarriage looks to be rebuilt and detail painted.  And a plus is the fact it has been converted to hydraulic brakes that appear to be 46-48 vintage.  It has a new battery, 15 inch ford steelies with rings and caps and Firestone tires.

The interior is an older redo possibly a Labarron Bonney that is still in nice condition. It has good glass that appears to have a 60's greenish tint.

The car has nice bumpers and some of the nicest fenders I have ever seen on one of these.

I fired the car up in the shop and it seems to run fine, but with us being in the dead of winter I did no more than drive it around the yard.

I think it would be cool as can be with a flathead eight in it, but that's just me.

So if you are looking for a nice solid, straight model A coupe that has a great look already, here you go.  Good Luck

If you have any questions I can be reached at 507-456-2957.

P.S. The car has a clear 31 Ford Title.

Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?

Sat, 28 Sep 2013

Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.

Ford readying three-row Edge for China

Fri, Nov 21 2014

The next-generation Ford Edge will be available with quite a growth spurt for its debut in China next year, with newly announced plans also to build and sell a three-row version exclusively in the People's Republic. However, markets outside of there likely won't see the larger model. Ford marketing boss (and future head of Ford of Europe) Jim Farley announced the three-row version of the crossover at the Los Angeles Auto Show, according to Automotive News. To create the extra room, Ford made the Chinese-built variant about 16 inches longer than its two-row counterpart. Farley didn't specify at which of the Blue Oval's plants in the country this model would be assembled. The Explorer and forthcoming Everest already offer three rows from the Ford lineup in China, but the company thinks the market can easily support all of them. According to Farley to Automotive News, the utility segment is up 485 percent in the country since 2008. Customers in the US can still look forward to the two-row Edge hitting dealers early next year. It'll be the first model in the Blue Oval's lineup here to come standard with EcoBoost power.
