                        1930 FORD MODEL A


For Sale is my friend's 1930 Ford Model A, 2 Dr. 5 Window Coupe with the Rumble Seat.  Bob, the owner, is getting up in age and the car is just a little too much for him to drive anymore.  As second owner, Bob has maintained and cherished this car since he has owned it.

The car went through a complete nut and bolt restoration 2002.  The engine, transmission and rear end was completely taken apart and rebuilt to factory specs.  The exterior was painted it's original Andalusite Blue with Black fenders and trim.   The car only has a few thousand miles on it since the restoration.  Every original body panel was removed and painted separately.  There was no rust or bondo repairs made to the car.  It is a very solid, rust free vehicle.  The paint finish is very nice.  No major chips, dings or dents anywhere on this car.  The undercarriage was also detailed and looks as good as the exterior.  The frame was completely media blasted and painted.

Mechanically, everything works except for the wiper motor.  The brakes are fairly new and work very well.  The engine fires right up and idles nicely.  The transmission shifts like new.  The tires are at 80% wear except for one tire which is about 30% wear remaining.   

The interior is like new.  It was finished with LeBaron Bonney fabric that looks authentic and new.  No rips or tears or even wear marks.  The headliner and door panels are also like new. 

I'm starting the bidding at $10K but I have a very low reserve on the car.  It's worth much more than that but the owner says it's time to sell it.  If you have questions, please call me at 574-965-4550 or email me at: kenprieboy@comcast.net.  Thanks for looking and bidding!.......Ken

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.

Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines

Sun, 24 Nov 2013

Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.
