1930 Ford Model A Coupe Hot Rod ( Rat Rod) Automatic V8. We found this 1930 Ford Model A California built Hot Rod Hiding in a barn for the last 15 years in the Arizona Desert. We brought it back to the shop and showed it a little love swapping the wheels & tires for some classic 15" Steelies with 205/75 15 & 225/15 15 American Classic White Walls. We then turned the Ignition & fired the Chevy 350 right up! The original builders of this Hot Rod started with a very good,clean, solid Original steel body with very minimal rust (look at the lower body & inner door pics).Sprayed in a Period Correct Matte Gray with custom hand pinstriping the exterior is developing a nice patina as it starts to show its age. The Interior was also well done at the time with VDO Classic gauges,Tilt Steering Column,Lokar billet accessories,a very nice gray tweed upholstery & a Pioneer Super Tuner AM/FM Cassette Stereo installed(got to have some cool tunes in such a cool ride!)To make it fast they installed a Carter AFB Competition Carb on a Weiand Stealth intake manifold and to make it loud its exhausted through a set Hooker Super Competition Headers. The engine was dressed with an assortment of Lokar Billet accessories & Moroso Chrome Valve Covers.After a short drive we came to appreciate the long low stance of this Classic Model A Hot Rod as the ride is solid & the Automatic transmission means a more enjoyable drive to your local cruise night hangout.This 1930 Ford Model A will be seen on an upcoming episode of the hit show Fast N Loud and the winning bidder will have the option of taking delivery on the show! This is a good candidate for Advertising/Promotional use,a Classic Restoration( super solid body),Hot Rod/ Rat Rod build out(we left the way we found it so you can finish it the way you like!) or just drive it like it is until you decide.We sell Internationally as well as locally & will end the Auction when it sells. See all pics & ask any questions.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Ford files trademark application for 'Model E'
Fri, 27 Dec 2013In early December, Ford filed an application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Model E." Historically, Ford never produced a Model E, and while automakers are known to file for trademarks they never use, some have wondered if the application might be used for a concept car.
Based on other recent events, though, it could be a legal move. In 2000 Ford sued an online start-up called Model E over the similarity of that name to Ford's industry-shaping Model T, but the judge dismissed the case citing lack of proper grounds. In August 2013, Tesla applied for trademark registration for Model E, and at the time, Ford said it would review the application. Tesla actually made two applications for Model E, one for automobiles and structural parts therefore, the other for "providing maintenance and repair services for automobiles," and there are plenty of theories about what the name could be applied to.
The Published for Opposition date for Tesla's applications is December 31, 2013, after which anyone who thinks they'd be harmed by Tesla being granted the trademark gets 30 days to register their issues. This is just speculation, but Ford's application - which was filed for automobiles only - might be about protecting what it sees as unwelcome encroachment on the name Model T, protection it wasn't able to enforce before when the stakes were only online and much smaller.
Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks
Sun, 25 May 2014Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.
