Ford 1931 Coupe Rumble Seat! Sharp! on 2040-cars
Neosho, Wisconsin, United States
Very sharp coupe that a restoration was started on about 37 years ago in a fellows house! Paint work is done and is great! Lots of new parts that were purchased in the 70-80's with receipts! New glass, new tires, rebuilt engine, chassis done. No patch panels! Nicest coupe body I have had in years! New wood, new nuts, bolts, floor panel etc! New running boards! Hood needs to be redone because the original hood went missing along with the fenders from the body shop years ago. Some duplicate pieces. Paint is in the light green color with the darker green for a great look! Much, much better than a barn find! This was a house find! I can store for a couple of weeks if needed. Cash is best! Mileage is not accurate! Both frame horns have had repairs years ago. Another frame is going with the car if you would like to use more modern methods of repair. Forgot to take pictures of painted fuel tank. Just returned from Back To The Fifties car show and based on what was in the Car Corral for Model A's and what they were asking we should be getting about $14K for this one! Why start with a rusty barn find that will need patch panels when this one is very very clean and has not had patch panels???? Body done....... chassis done........... rebuilt engine....... this should be a no brainer! Price has been reduced because of a car I have arriving. Just assemble this and resell it and make money! No extra holes in firewall either! White dots that show on roof etc are not chips.. just splatter from wax.......... comes right off. I have no problem shipping to Australia, New Zeland or Sweden! You will NOT be disappointed with this car! Hate to sell but another car is coming and I need the room! This is one heck of a find and easy to complete! Why spend 5-6000 on a barn find and then rebuild the engine and put another 5000 in the body?

Mysterious small Ford spied in Germany
Sat, 29 Jun 2013Our spy photographers have just popped off a few shots of something curious. This little runabout was spotted in Germany out testing with a current-generation Ford Fiesta. We're fairly confident the machine is a Ford, but exactly which Ford model is up for debate. The hatchback could be the next-generation Ka, but we've also heard that the Blue Oval supermini might not get a replacement. Our shooter says the five-door is a bit smaller than the current Fiesta, though there is a chance that this rig is just an engineering mule for drivetrain development. Then again, it could be a model built specifically for the South African market or China, or not a Ford at all.
Whatever it is and wherever it's headed, you can check out in the gallery for a closer look before heading into Comments to weigh in with your best guess.
Ford Q1 profits dragged down by warranty costs
Fri, 25 Apr 2014General Motors isn't the only Detroit automaker posting falling profits in the first quarter. Ford just released its Q1 2014 financial data, and it reported a net income of $989 million, down $622 million from Q1 2013. The drop is partially blamed on higher warranty and recall expenses than the company had anticipated.
Financially, Ford suffered a rough quarter almost across the board. Its pre-tax profit of $1.4 billion was also down $765 million from a year ago. Things were even worse in the North American market where operating profit fell significantly to $1.5 billion, down from $2.392 billion in Q1 2013. However, its global revenue ticked up slightly to $35.9 billion, from $35.6 billion in this period in 2013.
Ford admitted that it spent about $900 million on expenses that it hadn't planned for during this quarter. According to Reuters, the company paid about $400 million in additional warranty and recall costs in North America. The automaker didn't explain why the costs were so much higher than expected. However, in the last three months, Ford has had several recalls, including on the 2001-2004 Escape for rust, Explorer for its steering, Edge for its fuel line and others.
This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]

They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.
