I purchased this chassis to build a 5 window coupe for myself, but ended up buying a finished car from a fellow club member, hence the chassis is for sale. It is a running driving chassis, complete with radiator, grill shell, hood, cowl, gas tank, floor boards etc. as shown in the photos.   This is the nicest Model A frame I have ever seen.  No bends, splits, tears, welds or modifications of any kind.   There are very few rust pits and the running board brackets are mounted with the original Ford rivets.  The engine has just had the valves ground and  head surfaced.  It runs beautifully, with lots of power and no smoke or unusual noises. It comes with a Zenith carburetor, with all stock linkage in place.    The clutch does not chatter, the transmission shifts smoothly and there are no unusual noises from either the transmission or rear end.  I just took it for a two mile drive yesterday.  All components have been cleaned, detailed and painted (frame painted with chassis black), ready for your next project.  New brake rods have been installed, and all brakes (including the emergency brake) adjusted. All fluids are fresh.   The cowl is from a closed car, and could be the start of a woody wagon, speedster or remove it and install your body.  It has been cleaned, primed and painted with semi-gloss black.  Wheels (with stock hubcaps) are very nice and tires are " good rollers".  The radiator is original and has been repaired, but cools well and does not leak. The steering has some play in it, and have not attempted to set the alignment or make any adjustments.  The muffler is near new, but has a dent in the bottom that does not impair its function and is not obvious unless you are on your back.   If desired, I will provide the buyer with 4  freshly powder coated red wheels and new Bedford tires (no miles) for an additional $500 (shown on last photo).  The engine number indicates a June 1930 build.  The chassis is being sold with a bill of sale only (no title will be provided). eBay requires that I state the type of title, but there is no title.   You can acquire a title or have your DMV issue a constructed vehicle title.   Shipping is the buyer's responsibility, but I will assist in loading.  I will also store for up to 30 days after the sale at no charge.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions via email or phone--Bill (971) 235-3804

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models

Thu, Mar 2 2017

The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Ford and Lincoln owners can personalize their Alexa commands

Sat, Apr 9 2022

Ford and Lincoln owners whose vehicles have hands-free access to Alexa don't have to stick to using standard voice commands if they don't want to. The automaker has rolled out enhanced Car Control capabilities, and with it comes the option to teach Alexa commands that reflect their natural way of speaking. For example, they can program in "Alexa, I'm cold," and then teach the voice assistant to respond by asking what course of action it should take, such as "I can increase the temperature by 5 degrees or turn off the AC. What should I do?" Another example of a personalized phrase would be: "Alexa, set the AC to full blast." The assistant can then ask the owner what they mean by "full blast." Training Alexa to respond to personalized phrases is made possible by the assistant's teachable AI technology. All vehicles with Alexa Built-in will get access to enhanced Car Control when it becomes available to them. At the moment, the models with access to the hands-free experience are the 2022 F-150, Bronco, Mustang Mach-E, Edge, the new Expedition, Lincoln Nautilus and revised 2022 Lincoln Navigator. The long-awaited 2022 F-150 Lightning will also come with the capability when it launches. Ford debuted the hands-free Alexa capability for its vehicles last year, marking the beginning of its six-year partnership with Amazon. As part of that partnership, it's giving its customers complimentary access to Alexa for up to three years that begin on the new vehicle's warranty start date. Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment

How that awesome Mustang R/C car chase vid was made

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

We've reported on a few R/C car chase videos in the past. One in particular that stands out as a favorite is Zach King's "The Cliché RC Action Chase." It featured a pair of Ford Mustang coupes racing through a cardboard city, plowing into outdoor patios and busting through construction zones. It was wonderfully creative and fun to watch, yet we know there was more to its creation than a bunch of guys fooling around with a camera one afternoon.
Turns out we were right, as evidenced by this video produced by Ford that takes us behind the scenes of Zach's creation. The young filmmaker explains why he chose the Mustang to star in his video, as well as how the cardboard sets were created, what equipment they used for shooting and what it was like when his video went viral. Ford found the young filmmaker and produced the followup as part of its Mustang Countdown video series, which will see a new video about the Mustang culture released every week until the original muscle car's anniversary on April 17, 2014.
Want to make an RC chase video of your own? Yeah, we do too. Watch the behind-the-scenes video below (you can refresh yourself on the mini feature film, too) before you get started.
