1930 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan, Runs And Drives Great, Extremely Clean & Original on 2040-cars
Caspar, California, United States

It breaks my heart to put my cherished 1930 Ford Model A Tudor up for sale. However the realities and responsibilities of life must be met! This is a very original running and driving 1930 Tudor. The car has its original mechanical brakes ,correct period license plates, fully operating instruments, lights, controls and a very sound body with a great patina! This car would be an excellent candidate for either restoration or conservation and use as it is. The car comes with a new heater system that is still in the box.
The wood throughout the car is like new. The body has ZERO rust or damage from previous repairs. The polished stainless steel and chrome through the car is also in excellent condition. The car starts easily, idles smoothly, and runs very nicely down the road. All of the controls and gauges are working so this car can defiantly be driven daily as it is. The exterior of the car is Mallard green with Black trim. When I first got the car I believed that it was the original heavily patina paint from new. After closer inspection though (I pulled the Chromed Dash instrument panel off in order to service the instruments) I have discovered that the original paint on this car was most likely "Washington Blue". The current Mallard Green paint job though definitely showing its age, still looks great and would be very acceptable on a "Conserved" car. The only part of the car that will defiantly require attention, is the interior. The headliner is out of the car and will need to be replaced. The good thing about this however is that being out it allows you to see clearly how good the wood in the body is. The carpets (or rubber floor mats if preferred) are also out and in need of replacement. I will be very happy to answer any questions, or send additional photos so please do not hesitate to ask. |

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013
Sun, 15 Sep 2013When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year
Thu, 25 Jul 2013It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
