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.

Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.

Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
