For sale is my 1916 Brass Era Model T, fresh off a great restore. 

This car is a great numbers matching car with not only number matching but proof

of this in the block date as well. 

Car started out in the early days as a roadster with a farmer transforming it

into a truck in the 30’s. 

Story from the old gentleman I purchased it from is that in the war area they were given gas rations in the order

of 5 gallons if you had a car, 10 gallons if you were a service member and 15 gallons if you were a

Farmer and owned a truck. 

This was the whole reason for purchasing the truck body from the Cabinet co. from Des Plaines Illinois. 

The number of the unit on a brass tag still on the bed of the truck is number 167, a very early number as over 50,000

of these units were sold. 

I purchased a brand new brass works radiator for this year and no water pump is even needed

In the warmest of summer days. 

I also put a battery box under it for starting power, running the horns and street legal electric

taillights in the oil lamps.  All 4 oil lamps are functional as oil lamps with just added wires and reflectors and bulbs

for street legal operation.

Car runs best on magneto as there is no starter or generator. 

Car starts easy on 1 or 2 cranks cold and less than that warm. 

Headlights and one of the horns run on the magneto also. 

Anyway, this is a great truck and has been completely restored to the shape it was in at that time. 

All metal fenders etc. and all wood stripped down, resealed and varnished. 

Original Wood wheels were also taken down and sealed and varnished also. 

This is a true find and would be a proud addition to any person’s collection. 

I have entered this is many shows and always wins first in class and one best of show. 

Trophies do not go with the truck, Sorry. 

Since taking the photos I have added a drivers side rear oil lamp so both sides

are matching in the back.  Both oil lamps are functional but also have light lenses inside for a brake light & can easily be removed if you so choose. 

Also since pictures added a Ford Script for the back tailgate. Both are shown in the last photo.

If needed, I can deliver for $1.50 per mile in an enclosed trailer.  Maximum 500 miles round trip. 
I have 1 bike and about 7 or 8 other antique cars and trucks, if interested in getting more than 1, I will combine the
enclosed shipping for the same rate. 
I can fit 2 cars or trucks and 1 bike into a single load, 3 max. 
Call, email or text with any questions. 
thx.

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.

Reflecting on the Ford GT on its 10-year anniversary

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

Ten years ago, during the bright-eyed enthusiasm of the early 2000s and before the collective automotive industry did its best Titanic impression, we had the Ford GT. An everyman's supercar like there'd never been (remember, this was before 638-horsepower Corvettes were a thing), the GT arrived with a supercharged, 5.4-liter V8 that produced 550 horsepower and graced this retro-styled rocket with an easy, sub-four-second sprint to 60 miles per hour.
Equal to the GT's performance were its looks. Inspired by the GT40 racers that dominated Le Mans and bested Ferrari in the 1960s, the sleek, low, almost-reptilian look of the GT was the absolute pinnacle of the retro styling that so defined the early 2000s.
Crank and Piston put together a video celebrating the ten-year-old GT, arguing that Ford is a bit too busy with the next-gen Mustang, which turns 50 next week, to do it themselves. In the short clip, there is gratuitous engine noise and supercharger whine, not to mention scenes of the white-on-red GT prowling the deserts and streets of Dubai. It's a bit short, but very nicely shot. Scroll down, have a look and be sure to turn up those speakers before getting started.

Carfection looks for the ultimate pocket rocket

Fri, Mar 18 2016

If there's one thing we love, it's a good showdown. Especially when it's on video, done by some Englishmen, and involving some manner of performance machinery. Like this latest clip, for example, from Carfection. The team formerly known as Xcar have assembled three very compelling supermini hot hatches: two we can get on our side of the pond, and one we can't. One American, one Frenchman, and one Brit. One cheap, one expensive, and one somewhere in between. They all pack turbo fours, of course, but placed in entirely different packages. There's the evergreen favorite Ford Fiesta ST, the Renault Clio RS 220 Trophy that should have the rest licked, and the retro rocket that is the Mini JCW. And there's only one way to find out which is the best. It's a tough contest, to be sure, but lest you think it all comes down to specifications or which one's the newest, you'll want to think again. Because when it comes to hot hatches, all the electronic gizmos and power boosts in the world can't show up a perfectly dialed-in chassis that lets you hug the curves and feel like you're going a lot faster than you actually are. But don't take our word for it – see what our British friends have to say about it in the Queen's English in the seventeen-minute clip above. Related Video:
