1927 Ford Model "T" Phaeton/Touring

May 26, 1927, Ford Motors halted production of the Model T and closed it assembly line for six months. Ford did not begin to sell cars again until October 20th, 1927. This meant in 1927 you could buy a Model "T" or a Model "A"titled as a 28. From January through May 1927, Only 221 Phaeton/Tourings were produced.Of the entire Model "T's" The 1927 Phaeton was the least produced T and production run ever for Ford. (Info from Ford Motor Company)

This T was originally restored as an all steal rig with a 4 popper, then in 1969 a 302, Balanced (C 8) 1968, (A) Full Size (M) Performance Vehicle, Holman Moody (6015 B) 302 CuIn became available. An automatic with a C-4 and 9" rear..
In the earl y 70's, 40 or so years ago. Poli Form, in California was familiar with this car and invested 150K to develop 12, 27 Phaeton tubs and fenders formed from this cars original body. (This is the thickest, strongest tub body ever produced – no longer made) They converted to the new Tub and fenders, maintaining the original frame, springs , added a new front end, discs on front, tilt steering and all the original 1927 hardware items. Through most of the next 20 years this car was in storage.
Since then, I’ve added a new dash, electrical system and more. 2013, All external parts on the engine, (dist., carb, ign.,alt. starter) where replaced new. {YES, IT has Originals Cragers, unblemished from the 70's}

Also included are side curtains, only for pattern purpose, frames are good , fabric is not. I will answer all questions, preferably by phone for serious buyers. Compared to other similiar rigs, without as many features that have sold from 28K-42K , my reserve is quite low giving the buyer plenty of room for modifications to their taste and and opportunity for a rare car to make their own and later a recieve a substantial profit.

This is a driver and there is minor work still to be done. What is left is to: Connect new installed gauges, lower firewall below steering column, and minor electrical connections.. Every thing to complete to show condition is included

Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.

Ford dealer loses Super Bowl bet, pays $300K to lucky customers [w/video]

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

A Missouri Ford dealership's Super Bowl weekend sale cost it big when the improbable happened. Hutcheson Ford ran a promotion from January 29 to February 1, called the Super Weekend Sale. The gist was, if any customer purchased a vehicle between those dates and either the opening or second-half kickoff of the big game was returned for a touchdown, the dealership would refund the purchase price.
In the dealership's defense, it seemed like a safe bet. According to the mathematicians, there was just a 2.5-percent chance of either half opening with a touchdown return. But that didn't stop Seattle's Percy Harvin from doing his part to ruin Denver's evening, returning the second-half kick for an 87-yard touchdown run. Twelve Hutcheson customers were eligible for refunds thanks to the return, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $55,000, according to Automotive News. The total amount shelled out by the dealership? $300,000.
"At least we're not like that furniture guy that lost $7 million," dealership marketing manager Kathleen Frazier told AN. We think it was a big success." The dealership did take out insurance to cover its losses, meaning the $300K won't come entirely from its pockets.

Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
