This is a 1923 Ford Model T Coupe also known as an Opera Coupe or a Doctor's Coupe. The car is an excellent driver and is really fun to drive - it really runs great! It has an electric starter but also can be started by the front crank without a battery using the magneto. I have started it both ways but it has more power when driving with the battery. Has a new 6 volt battery and carburetor was cleaned and rebuilt. Car was in a heated garage for about 20-24 years and is original. I am a perfectionist so I think it could use a paint job since there is a good amount of cracking along the hood hinge (see pictures) and it also has a couple of nicks on the fenders (again, please see pictures). Tires are in very good condition with no crazing (spare has some cracks in it but is still fine). Doesn't leak any oil and transmission works great. This is an original car and could use some interior work -- some of the welting fabric is loose and frayed. The body is in great shape as far as no rust anywhere -- all the steel is solid! Window regulators work but the passenger regulator slips. Car also has some options on the dash -- a wind up clock (needs work possibly) and an old APCO air freshener from the 1920's. Radiator is great - no leaks. Also of interest is the locking mechanism on the steering wheel -- believe this was an option not added by Ford but I am not 100% positive. Headlamps are electric but lights near cowl have kerosene wicks in them. Please feel free to ask any questions -- I am more familiar with the Model A's than the Model T but I have enjoyed driving this car -- it starts instantly and is a load of fun to drive once you get used to it!!! Selling because I need to make room in garage for another Model A. I've tried to provide the good and the bad in my description but again, if you have any additional questions or would even like to see a video of the car running/driving, please let me know and I'll be glad to send. I have a bill of sale but title is long gone - god knows what happened to it! Also of particular note, there is a brass plate on the passenger sill indicating the car was originally purchased from Burnett and Sherman Ford Lincoln Dealership in Boston, Massachusetts. Car is available for pickup in Kensington, CT. l

Ford Ranger-based 7-seat SUV spotted testing
Wed, 29 May 2013Ford looks to be working on a new SUV version of its global Ranger pickup truck. An early prototype of a seven-passenger SUV based on the Ranger has been spotted testing in Australia, and word has it buyers in the region could expect to see the model in showrooms as soon as 2014, where it could sail under the Endeavour or Everest badges. Ford Australia currently sells the Territory SUV, so there's some chance that this model could be a successor to that throne, as well.
Whatever it's called, the long-roof Ranger will feature a shorter wheelbase and more ground clearance than its pickup twin, giving the machine a bit more off-road functionality. (And here we thought we couldn't want the global Ranger any more than we already do.) While this particular vehicle sports a Territory back half grafted onto a Ranger front end, odds are a public reveal of the finished product could occur as soon as the second half of 2014, making it a 2015 model. Head over to Carsguide.com.au for a closer look.
Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue
Fri, Dec 20 2019Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.
Ford Escort is ready to focus on the Chinese market
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford officially revived the Escort name in China, showing of the new, four-door compact at the Beijing Motor Show. Painted in a stylish brown-bronze, the new sedan wears a number of global Ford styling cues while sharing its platform with the Ford Focus.
Power for the new model comes from a 1.5-liter four-cylinder, although Ford doesn't specify just how much power is on offer, simply saying that the fuel economy of the new mill will be "outstanding." It's unclear what transmission will be distributing the engine's power, although based on the images we've seen, the Escort will definitely offer a two-pedal setup.
The layout of the cabin is fairly clean, although as we mentioned in our initial post on the new Escort, it's a decidedly sparser environment than we've grown use to in US-spec Fords of late. If anything, it's like a weird blend of current Ford switchgear with an overall look that reminds us of older Ford layouts. Still, it looks like a comfortable way of moving five people about without too much fuss. There's ample space both front and rear, and a rather spacious trunk.
