This beautiful 1929 Right Hand Drive Ford Model A RS Roadster was built new at the Ford plant in Argentina. Ford began producing cars in South America around 1925 and it is my understanding that most of the cars built there were Phaeton's and it is rare to see a Right Hand Drive Roadster, especially one that retains so much of it's original parts. Many of the mechanical parts including the oil breather cap, bell housing, intake manifold, generator, crank pulley, along with many of the internal parts are stamped Industria, Argentina. Even the timing gear which I changed was stamped Argentina. The original water pump was an enclosed pump and comes with the car. The tires are 450 21" Good Year, also stamped Industria, Argentina and in overall good condition for the age. The running boards on the car are the early Brazilian Walnut running boards and in exceptional condition. Even the rear axle housings are the correct South American cast style. The rear bumper clamps are the original cast with the Ford script in them. The front ones are also the correct original cast with no script.The interior of the car appears to be the original leather and in great shape for the age. The car is in overall beautiful condition and runs smooth and strong.
The car was brought to the United States, (Texas) back in the early 1980's. A title was issued for it in Texas with the VIN number listed above. The original Ford VIN number is still visible on the block and is *AF2763598* The car was serviced at that time and repainted. The top was probably replaced at that time also. There is an original Texas inspection sticker from 1987 still on the windshield. A gentleman from New York bought the car and it was part of his private collection for many years. I purchased the car from him a little over 5 years ago. Over the past couple months the following work was done: ENGINE

Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta
Tue, 17 Jun 2014The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
Hot-selling Ford Expedition, Lincoln Navigator get production boost
Mon, Feb 12 2018Ford is investing an additional $25 million in its Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville to increase by 25 percent production of the hot-selling and all-new Lincoln Navigator and Ford Expedition SUVs. The investment adds to $900 million in previously announced spending at the plant, which also builds F-Series Super-Duty pickups and employs 8,400 workers. Assembly-line workers are putting in overtime and working voluntary weekend shifts to keep up with demand. The new investment will cover upgrades to the assembly line but does not involve further hiring, Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker says. The popularity of the Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator is a bright spot as Ford stock has been battered by Wall Street amid concerns concerns about the automaker's future vision and slowness to detect trends. Ford says the investment is an example of its bid to improve "operational fitness," one of CEO Jim Hackett's common refrains. Ford says Navigator retail sales more than doubled in January, and Navigators are spending an average of just seven days on Lincoln dealership lots as customers trade in vehicles including Land Rovers and Mercedes-Benz. Nearly 85 percent of buyers are opting for high-end Black Label and Reserve trim packages, contributing to an average transaction price increase of more than $21,000 in January compared to a year ago. The 2018 Navigator won the North American Truck of the Year award and also topped a Detroit News poll of public favorites at last month's Detroit Auto Show. Sales of the Expedition, meanwhile, were up almost 57 percent last month as the full-size SUVs also spent an average of just a week on dealer lots. Platinum trim models represented 29 percent of sales, pushing transaction price increases up $7,800. Ford gave the 2018 Expedition an all-aluminum body to save mass in its first significant redesign since 2007. The plant last year got nearly 400 new robots, mainly in the body shop, to help increase line speed, and Ford added a robot lab where employees can test software tweaks or troubleshoot issues away from the factory floor. The Louisville plant also benefits from extensive new data analytics, with seven big-screen monitors providing minute-by-minute updates showing progress against hourly targets or alerting workers to pending parts shortages. A huge spare-parts "vending machine" lets workers more quickly locate needed parts and keep inventory at necessary levels.
