For bid and sale is a 1929 Model A Ford coupe with rumble seat. Actually, due to my age and health concerns, I'm selling 2 Model A's (pictured), but this ad is for the 1929 coupe. This vehicle is originally from Texas, but was purchased several years ago in the Joplin, Mo. area. After completing work on my 1930 sedan, I started on the coupe. This was a body off restoration with all or most things done which I knew to do, including new body felt, POR 15, improved motor mounts, and new wood as needed. The following describes the vehicle: converted to 12V for better lighting and easy starting, new black wall tires, gas tank boiled and sealed, modern type shock kit, new stone guard, mirrors and parking lights, spare tire cover, all chrome new or refurbished, all glass new or good, transmission and running gears fine, professional paint job 2 tone green with black bottom (AutoDynamics -- Belington, WV -- shines great), complete engine rebuilt (McCartney -- French Creek, WV), less than 1 hour on engine, interior panels and headliner from LeBarron Bonney, main seat and rumble seat done by (Hillbilly Upholstery, Philippi, WV), plus many miscellaneous items too numerous to list. I have only driven this vehicle once around the block (runs fine) but did not like the handling which was likely due to the older 7 tooth (non-adjustable) steering gear -- a new 2 tooth gear would be far better. Like my 1930 sedan, this car has been sitting in my garage for 2-3 years but I do start it periodically. This is a very nice coupe, essentially new in many respects, and inspections are welcome. Ordinary forms of payment acceptable. Also advertised locally. Bob Reger 304-823-1992.

Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
Ford talking unibody Ranger replacement
Mon, 18 Feb 2013Now here's some welcome news. Car and Driver reports Ford is seriously mulling a replacement for the recently deceased Ranger, but the successor to the compact pickup's throne may not look anything like what we've seen from the nameplate in the past.
While speaking at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Doug Scott, marketing manager for Ford Trucks, said there's still a market for a smaller pickup, but that buyers expect to see a larger differentiation between the smaller utility vehicles and their full size counterparts in price, capability and fuel economy.
According to Scott, that means a vehicle with a payload capacity of around 1,000 pounds paired with a towing capacity of 3,000 pounds and "a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption." But the biggest piece of that recipe is the price tag, and Scott says to keep the MSRP far enough away from the already cheap F-150, the answer could come in the form of a unibody design. Scott says target customers in this market don't care whether the truck has a traditional frame or not, so long as it's tough enough to do the job and has the capability they need.
Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.
