Hello and thank you for looking at this BEAUTIFUL piece of American history. Up for auction is a fully restored 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Pickup. I acquired this vehicle a few months ago. I picked it up so I could park it next to my late grandfather's 1930 Model A that was handed down to me. They look excellent together however, I never drive this truck and I hate seeing it sit and collect dust. It is time to find a home that will love her more than I will.
I will admit, I do not know much about Model T's so please bear with me. I will tell you what I know about it and if you have any further questions, please ask them. I will post all questions and answers so that everyone else can see them.
The gentleman that I received this truck from bought it from the guy who had it restored. As you can see in the pictures, they did a FULL restoration. Nothing was skimped on. I was told that the engine and transmission were gone through during the time of restoration. Yes, of course it runs. I start it once in a while and let if run for a minute or two. I have only drove it ONCE. I drove it down the street and back. I was very nervous on driving such a piece of art and not being too familiar with the controls.
I personally would rate this trucks condition a 9 out of 10. The reasoning for that is there is a very small ding by the license plate (pictured). There is also a lil scratch here and there too. Trust me, it is one of the cleanest vehicles that I have seen. It is ALL STEEL. No fiberglass. I went through the truck extensively and I could not find any dents or places where body work has been performed. NO BONDO.
It does have electric start with a newer 6 volt battery. As far as I know, all the lights work. The top folds down perfectly. Glass is perfect. Has stock carburetor on it that has been rebuilt by some company on the internet. All of the fenders have been undercoated (pictured). If you look at the pictures you will notice that even underneath the body was painted.
All the wheels and tires look in great shape. It steered down the road perfectly for me. Brakes seemed to be great. I had no complaints about how it handled. Both doors close and open perfectly. Who ever restored this truck did it correctly and spared no expense. It does have a clear California title and is currently registered. It is titled as a 1921 for some reason though. I can not tell you why. It will come with a couple older manuals for model T's. They look like they are from the 50's.
I believe I have covered everything that I know about this BEAUTIFUL truck. It has always been covered and stored indoors. I do not require a paypal deposit. I do however, require the auction's balance to be paid in full within 7 days of the auction's end in the form of a certified check from a bank that is located across the country such as Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, etc, etc. I do this because I have a small town bank and it will take a week to clear payment otherwise. I can clear the certified check immediately and overnight you the title. The shipping is up to the winner of the auction. I will assist the shippers in loading the truck and take pictures of the process. If you need to store the truck here for some time, I have no problem with that. Please look at all of the pictures and ask all questions prior to bidding. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!!

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Lincoln Continental production likely to shift to Flat Rock
Fri, Jun 12 2015Lincoln production may be returning to Michigan, according to a new report from Automotive News. While the brand's current big sedan, the MKS, is built alongside the Ford Taurus, Ford Explorer, and their Police Interceptor counterparts at the Blue Oval's Chicago, IL factory, the production version of the Continental won't be screwed together in the Windy City. According to AN, "industry sources" claim the Continental will join the Ford Mustang and Ford Fusion – on which the big Lincoln is loosely based – at the company's Flat Rock, MI factory. The move isn't just based on convenience, though. Ford is selling a lot of Explorers, and shifting Lincoln production away from Chicago Assembly frees up production capacity for the popular SUV. "Chicago Assembly Plant is vital to our global manufacturing footprint and will continue to manufacture the Ford Taurus, Ford Explorer and Police Interceptor vehicles even after we phase out production of the MKS in 2016," Ford told Automotive News. "We will continue to match production to demand." Looking at the numbers further backs up the argument against Lincoln production in Chicago. Last year alone, Ford built nearly 285,000 Explorers and over 73,000 Taurus sedans, compared to just 8,300 Lincolns. Finally, as AN tells it, Ford is almost telegraphing the Continental's arrival in Flat Rock. The facility has a four-week shut down scheduled from June 15 through July 13, which is twice as long as the typical summer vacation, while there's another two weeks off slated for September.

Ford F-Series Super Duty earns Truck of Texas award
Wed, Oct 12 2016Texans love their pickup trucks, which you already knew. That means the Texas Auto Writers Association and its "Truck of Texas" award is a big deal. And the latest trophy goes to the 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty. The pickup truck managed to snag TAWA's award at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo. The award marks the 13th time Ford's F-Series has been named the pickup king of the Lone Star State. Roughly 70 journalists converged outside at the Longhorn River Ranch, just outside of Austin, TX, for the 23rd annual Texas Truck Rodeo where a host of Ford's vehicles won awards. In addition to the F-Series Super Duty being named the "Truck of Texas," the 2017 Ford Super Duty won the Heavy Duty Pickup Truck award, while the 2017 Ford F-150 with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine won the Best Powertrain award. The journalists also awarded Ford for having the "Truck Line of Texas." Ford wasn't the only winner at the Texas Truck Rodeo, as Nissan brought home five awards, including one for the 2017 Titan in the fullsize pickup category and one for the Armada in the SUV segment. Ram also won a few accolades with its trucks. The 2017 Ram 1500 won for being the most luxurious pickup truck, while the 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon won the off-road pickup truck award. Last year, TAWA named the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the Truck of Texas, but Ford's all-new F-Series Super Duty managed to keep the Japanese automaker's full-size offering at bay. For the 2017 model, Ford placed aluminum body panels into the F-Series Super Duty's body, which not only shed weight, but also make the truck stronger. Scroll down to see the entire list of TAWA's winners from the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo.
