Hello, I'm selling my 1926 Ford Model T roadster pickup. This is a mostly unrestored original vehicle. Over the years it has been painted, rewired with a correct replacement harness and the interior redone, but the running gear, frame, and axles appear original. There are a couple of cracks in the fenders. The bed has new wood in the floor. I think the bed is actually from a 1925, which is a little longer. The engine may never have been out, and appears to have never been rebuilt. The spark plugs are Wards that look to be from the 40's. It runs and drives perfectly. It has an electric starter, as well as the hand crank. It always starts, hot or cold, and always runs as it should. The original generator and cut-out regulator work fine, and you don't have to worry about the battery. The only modifications under the hood are an added modern fuel filter, and a modern flat tube radiator. They could be easily removed if you wanted 100% original. I have the original fuel screen that fits in the tank shut-off valve, and also the original radiator, which is perfectly functional. I put in the new radiator because I live in Tucson, where it regularly gets over 100 degrees, and T's don't have a water pump. The only gauge is amps, and it works fine. The original ignition/ light switch works fine. You start the car on the battery, then switch it to magneto. It all works perfectly. The planetary transmission shifts smoothly, and it has a desireable Ruxtell two-speed rear axle. I added two tail lights and a brake light switch for safe driving. The 21" wood spoke wheels are in good shape. The tires are older, but have good tread and are matching. The non- matching spare is in good shape and mounted on a rare original running board mount. It runs down the road at 40-45 MPH, and stops fine for a Model T. They are not at all like a newer car, but it is very driveable anywhere and any time if you know how to drive it. The throttle and spark advance are on the column, and the three pedals on the floor are 1st/ high gear, reverse, and brake. Look up driving a T on youtube for a lesson. It needs nothing, has recently been lubed and serviced, and is ready to go anywhere. The 6 volt battery is good. Please ask any questions before you bid. It is sold in as-is, where-is condition. I will drive it on to a transport, and give the driver a short lesson on moving it if you would like.

Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
Ford Figo concept unveiled in India
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.
