1913 Depot Hack that was just finished at the end of last summer and attended one car show where it won trophy. Only driven around the block a few times and is ready to go anywhere. I built this car with the intention that I did not want to have break downs, constant "monkeying around" nor the usual constant tinkering that most "T's" need.  I had this one done for national tours. this car has the best of everything with over 20,000$ invested plus labor, plus paint shop labor, time spent searching for pieces and shipping... Motor & Trans is 1926. Was completely rebuilt by "Ron's Machine shop  ( Known for Montana 500 wins ) cost was over $ 5000. Carb by Russ Potter ( NH). Has Alum intake, new exhaust manifold, 260Z Cam, Kevlar linings, Jack rabbit Clutch, Kevlar Linings, low head, modified early fan with roller bearings inserted, Hogs headed rebuilt with "O" rings so no leaks ! & pedals are lettered  ( C,R,B) not 26/27 wide type. Because of the larger brake drum in trans.  car is safer as it stops quickly for a T. 4 dip pan straightened on KR Jig. Has dual internal oil feeds to front bearings. Mag and magnets are reworked by "ron's"  Coils are rebuilt and in box with KW Switch, Internal contacts and porcelains are original Ford not repros for best contact.. Has an "E TIMER" so no screwing around with spark and runs really smooooth with lots of power, yet looks original. Comes with a'17 block that can be modified to '13, early narrow nosed oil correct pan  as a spare &possibly   NOS crankshaft. Correct front and rear ends all rebuilt with new bushings and new Mae West shackles roller bearings in rear end not brass plates, hasTapered leaf springs. Front is new & repro rear is mint used original. drive shaft has FUN PROJECTS adjustable  bearing and NOS U joint..  Has fabric lined accessory brake shoes not cast iron and will stop. All chassis sand blasted and primed and is urethane black with hardner to make oil and gas resistant. All oilers are correct brass. Battery is 6 volt 1 yr old. All fenders, hood former, gas tank, running boards, hood are new Rootlieb. Headlamps are new Rootlieb ( I did not paint them to change from '12 to '13 style). Prestolite tank painted factory grey and is full. Have Langs kit to hook up lights to it, but not installed...yet. Steering colum is all rebuilt with new brass parts and 26-27 gears for easy &  safe steering. Body is by Pleasantville Body Co. Wheels are rebuilt by the Amish in Ohio and beautiful, all wood and hardware is new .( all 4) with sandblasted and filled rims and hubs that were nice to start with. Wheel bearings possibly NOS. Tires of course are new. Radiator is new from "BERGS". Side lamps are nice originals with burners but have dings in the fonts that are minor lamps are restored other wise ...same for the tail lamp all are corect '13-'14, Speedo is winged script. Horn is original with new LANGS tube ,reed, fittings. As I had intended to keep this as my own car I did it right, But we have the American Eagle "T" racer and wife prefers to show that and we are looking for a '33 Ford body if any one has one available to put a hi perf '51 Merc Flatie we have into. Car is dusty and a bit dirty in some shots as pictures were taken just after winter storage in a dusty barn. This '13 draws a lot of attention where ever it goes and kids just love it !! The touring shown in one pic is sold and gone. Many small parts are either NOS Ford or repros from Langs & Bob's.

Ford sells 7-millionth Explorer in America

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Say what you will about the evolution of the Ford Explorer, from roofed Ranger to body-on-frame sport utility vehicle to unibody crossover - the bottom line is that it's been a tremendously successful model for Ford. In fact, the Blue Oval automaker has sold seven million Explorer models in the United States alone.
The milestone, marked nearly a quarter-century after the introduction of the original in 1990, comes on the eve of the introduction of a new Explorer at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week. We don't yet know how the new Explorer will shape up, but we're mere days away from finding out.
Now heading into its sixth generation, the Explorer has formed the basis of Ford's utility lineup for over two decades. The Explorer landed on the market right around the time that the Bronco was trailing off, predating the company's expansion into larger SUVs like the Expedition and Excursion and crossovers like the Escape, Edge and Flex.

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.

Ford names Lincoln chief as North American president following Nair's departure

Thu, Feb 22 2018

Ford announced yesterday that its North American president Raj Nair would no longer be working for the company due to "inappropriate behavior." As a result, the company needed fill that gaping vacancy. The new North American president and Ford Group vice president will be Kumar Galhotra, and his term in the new role will start on March 1. Galhotra will remain the group vice president and chief marketing officer for Lincoln through March, meaning he's the head of the luxury brand. He's had this position since 2014. Before that, he was vice president of engineering for all of Ford. With Galhotra's promotion, a number of internal promotions follow. Joy Falotico, current chairman, CEO and group vice president of Ford's credit division will fill Galhotra's position, and Dave McClelland, vice president of marketing for Ford Asia Pacific, will fill her role. Other shuffling at Ford includes Stewart Rawley's promotion to vice president for Ford North America and chief operating officer. He is the current vice president for strategy at Ford. Ford China's chairman and CEO John Lawler will take Rawley's old role, and Cathy O'Callaghan will take over Lawler's job at Ford China, but not until June 1. O'Callaghan is currently vice president, corporate controller and chief financial officer for global markets at Ford. Related Video:
