1924 Ford Model T Tudor Sedan Original W/extra New Parts on 2040-cars
Boynton Beach, Florida, United States
Selling my 1924 Model T Tudor sedan. I bought this car as a project and have done some work to it, but have run out of time, ability and desire. The body is in nice shape very little rust for a 90 year old car. It has some surface rust here and there, the right front fender is the only spot on the whole car where it is through(see closeup, it's small). Some surface rust under the step boards. The chassis/frame are in solid shape. The car has ancient paint, the lower windshield and rear right window are cracked, the rest of the glass is in great shape. All the windows roll up and down but are a bit stiff, the drivers goes up and down, but stops about 3/4 the way up. The tires have tons of tread left, but are starting to show tiny age cracks, so to be safe you should replace them. The wood wheels are good and solid. The interior is original and all there, should be replaced, it's pretty stained. The rubber roof and roof wood needs replacing. The wood floor is in nice shape. The battery was shot when I bought it, so I put in a new battery, and she cranks, the horn and lights work. I then put in new spark plugs, spark plug wires, rebuilt the Holley NH carb, and actually got it running but very poorly, very, very poorly, where it starts up puttery and will run a few seconds and die. It will not run long enough time to drive. That's where I am with the car right now. I went on some websites and they said check the coils, check the timer etc., that is beyond me, please be familiar with these cars before you buy. I have about $700-800 in brand new parts that go with the car. They were ordered from Macs and Langs specialist Model T parts. They are.......A roof wood kit from MACs made specifically for this car(cost $450), a custom car cover specifically for this car, Ford spare tire cover, Ford floor mats, coolant pipe, hoses and clamps, pedal boots, pedal pads, 4 window cranks, 4 window crank escutcheons, carb hot air pipe, door bumpers, brake pads and springs, step plate screws, patent plate, Ford script radiator plate, brass fuel shut off valve, 2 brass radiator petcocks, and some catalogues to order parts from. They sell the rubber roof kit for about $120, so the majority of the cost is taken care of already since I am providing the wood kit. I have tried to describe this car as well as I could and put in tons of pictures, so keep in mind it's 90 years old and needs work/restoration, so expect what you see in pictures. It is a really solid and complete car to start with. If you have a bit more knowledge and time than me, it should be up and going pretty easily. Clean, open Florida title, in previous owners name, ready to go in your name. I will also give a bill of sale. Sold as is, with no warranty. If you are local and want to inspect it before bidding, I encourage that, just let me know. No complaining or asking questions afterwards. Deposit of $250 due within 2 days through Paypal, the balance in cash within 2 weeks. If you are out of state and need more time, let me know BEFORE you bid, maybe when can work something out. Buyer responsible for shipping costs and arranging shipping plans to pick up from my house. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time, for any reason. |

Ford looks to space robots to improve car-to-car communications [w/video]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Ford has partnered with St. Petersburg Polytechnic University for three years to research various kinds of connected vehicle communications. The university tie-up is part of its study of space robots, NASA systems created to enable space-to-Earth communication, and the university's own development of systems that enable communication between the International Space State and Earth.
The objective is for Ford to engineer layers of robust networks and redundancy systems that will allow your car to speak to other cars, to emergency vehicles, to infrastructure like traffic lights and buildings, and to the cloud. Benefits would come in just about every area of transit, from avoiding accidents, to getting medical workers to an accident more quickly, to improving the flow of traffic during rush hour.
Check out the press release below for details on what Ford wants to learn from the JUSTIN Humanoid and NASA Robonaut R2, and a video of technical leader Oleg Gusikhin discussing his interest in the project.
Find out if the Ford Fiesta ST can match Europe's latest hot hatches
Tue, 11 Feb 2014The V8 grunt of the Mustang has defined Ford performance cars in the US for the last 50 years, but in Europe, the Blue Oval has nearly as a long history of building some of the best hot hatches on the market with the Fiesta, Escort and later the Focus. The latest Fiesta ST has just hit the roads on both sides of the pond and has been enthusiastically received thanks to its combination of a peppy, turbocharged engine and hatchback utility.
However, Europe is getting a bumper crop of hot hatches at the moment, including the forthcoming, third-generation Mini Cooper S. Should Ford have waited to launch the ST until it knew how the competition performed? That's the answer that Xcar is after in its latest video, and it took the Fiesta to the track and some very misty, Welsh roads to find out. Scroll down to find out whether the ST stacks up.
Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected
Thu, 29 May 2014Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
