Model T Ford Touring on 2040-cars
Tucson, Arizona, United States
|
This is a 1916 Model T touring car. It has been repainted in the early 1950's and it might have been reupholstered then also. The engine might have been rebuilt at that time and has only had the pan removed for inspection since then. The engine is stock except for oil dippers on the rods. This year I put in new top bows and a new top on it. This is one of the most original and complete cars I have seen, for instance the engine pans are in place. The only thing not 1916 is the cowl lights and head lite rings. This car was never been taken apart and "restored" it was painted once over the old paint and that is it. It has no rust, no Bondo or body repairs or panel replacement. Never wrecked. This is an honest old car that was toured in the 1950's and parked till this year. I have gone on two tours with it. It runs well and the only thing mechanical I did was put new band material in the transmission and neoprene seals in the rear axl. The magneto head lights work well and the cowl lights work well with new wicks.
This is not a cobbled together car out of many parts, this is the real deal old car. If you want a model T that looks new, there are many for sale that people have built up out of new and old parts to chose from this is not one.
This car is for some one who wants a real T made out of Pre-war Ford parts that is in very good shape with no hidden issues hidden under new paint.
It has many other nice features like a Ruckstel two speed rear end, hassle shocks front and rear. anti shimmy plates, steering wheel brace, and a water pump, rear view mirror. All the car extras were added in the 1950's or earlier. There are also really nice tour plaques from 1955-60 riveted to the hood. this car has been in AZ at least since then.
Please contact me through Ebay for more information and if possible come by and look at it and drive it in person.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects
Thu, 16 May 2013Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.
Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Fri, 16 May 2014Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
