1931 Ford Model A Coupe
Unmolested, California Rust Free Survivor.
Rumble Seat, Wire Wheels.

Grandpa says: "King Solomon In All His Glory, Never Rode in a Finer Piece of Iron".

This 1931 Ford Model A Coupe is as nice a survivor as they get. 
All Steel Body; No fiberglass!
Although the paint might be original, it has scratches and chips just as it should. 
"Gear heads" remark that the "patina" is awesome!.This is not a Museum piece, but a really fine outstanding example of how a Model A should look and run.

Purchased from the second owner in 82 years, this Model A is as nice as you would want. The interior is vinyl and probably was restored 20 or 30 years ago. The drive train more recently.
All the gauges work perfectly. The charging system (generator) works as it should.
Brand new six volt battery. Wire wheels and tires are good. All the glass (windshield windows, glass windwings) are good. The chrome and bumpers, are exceptional!
The motor starts right up. Runs smooth. The transmission (3 speed) shifts fine.
No leaks.The brakes stop really good! The hand brake works good as well.
The floor board (original wood) is in great shape.
The radiator does not leak. The radiator cap is a vintage airplane with a  thermometer.The propeller spins as you drive.
The klaxon (ahooga horn) works too!
Has the original jack and tool kit (crank included).
No rust or rot at all! This is not a rusted out, fiberglass, East Coast, junk box.
This is an original, all steel body! This Model A is rust free NOT because it had rust repaired, it is rust free because it NEVER had any!
Comes with an original 1931 California License plate and a 60's registered, California Black plate.
Has a clean California Title. I really hate to see it go!


Because of it's age (82 years old), this Model A is being sold As-Is, without warranty, either expressed or implied. If you have any questions, please ask BEFORE you bid. Buyers are encouraged to inspect this Model A PRIOR to bidding.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014



The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.

Thieves still love older Hondas and pickups most, says NICB [w/video]

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

No one wants to have their car stolen, but a new study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau has some bad news for older Honda owners and pickup drivers. Fortunately, it has better news for drivers overall. The group is reporting that according to preliminary data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, thefts were down 3.2 percent in 2013 (versus 2012) to fewer than 700,000 cars. That's the lowest figure since 1967. That's also less than half of the peak of over 1.66 million thefts in 1991. "The drop in thefts is good news for all of us," says NICB President and CEO Joe Wehrle. "But it still amounts to a vehicle being stolen every 45 seconds and losses of over $4 billion a year."
Honda drivers might not find it such good news with older Accord and Civic models topping this year's theft study. Toyota and Dodge can't really celebrate, either, with two models each on the list, as well. Overall, this year's list was split evenly between foreign and domestic models, which were mostly pickups.
The 10 most likely vehicles to be stolen in 2013 were:
