Purchased from an estate this 1919 Paco bodied model T Racer is offered for sale.  The Paco  body was made in Galesberg Ill in 1919.  The Paco Speedster all steel bodies were made from 1916 to 1920.  Made to be mounted on a Model T frame they were patterned to resemble the Indy racers of the day.  This model is equipped with the mechanics seat which was the way Indy cars were built in that era, and were very popular on the dirt tracks  until the Forties.  This example is powered by the very rare Frontinac conversion of the Ford Model T engine.  The Frontinac Engine company of Indianoplis was owned by the Chevrolet Bros and was  the leading supplier of engines and conversion for the Indy 500 and other racers in the 1920s.  This is a model R head and conversion the very same that won the 1923 Indy 500 and placed 6 through 10 in 1922.  This engine conversion included steel balanced crank, Camel water pump, Fully pressurized lube system, distributor,downdraft model OC2 Stromberg carb, Model R overhead valve head and  manifolds plus numerous other Frontinac upgrades.  These Model R conversions are capable of 4200 rpm and can cruise all day at that level.  This one runs flawlessly and is coupled to a modern C4 Ford automatic with a Borg-Warner overdrive making top speed of over 90 MPH.  Rear axle is narrrowed model T, brakes  are Girling 4 wheel hydraulic.  12 volt system with electric starter    Seat cushion is removable with leather patterned closely to the orginal Paco interior.   This racer was found in a Southern California salvage yard and has been restored to resemble its appearance as a dirt track racer in the thirties.  Street legal with lights and stoplight.  Perfect for cruises or even the " Great Race".   I just brought the car back from a weekend at the vintage races at Road America and it will supply days of fun for the buyer at the many vintage car races through-out the US.  Car is located in Austin Mn and available for inspection anytime during the auction.  If unable to inspect the winning bidder, after a $1000. paypal deposit within 24 hours, will have ten days to inspect.  If for any reason buyer chooses not to complete purchase, he may "walk-away" and one-half of deposit will be refunded.  Any questions please E-Mail or call John @ 507 279 0752.

Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.
