32 Ford Roadster on 2040-cars
Bethpage, New York, United States
Description: 1932 Ford Street Rod for sale. My dad built it in the early 1990s (probably 1992 or 1993), in Florida. (He was the car guy, and I learned some stuff from him, so these are the details that I know.) Has a 1970s-era Chevy 350 engine, special heads, and an automatic transmission (I know, I know... he chose automatic so my mom could drive it!). Dyno-tested at approx 325hp. I do know it has a special carburetor (not sure of brand), and I also have a spare carb and alternator too. Of course, the exterior is black. Look closely at the pinstriping down the side-- it's a copy of one of my father's EKG printouts from his doctor !! The interior is mauve and gray. The doors open by pressing on a switch under the dash on the driver's side. The hard top lifts off easily, after pulling out a few pins/cotterpins. Steering column and bucket seats are from a early '80s GM vehicle. Up until late 2012, the car was in Florida, and was babied by my father. I don't think it's ever been driven in rain (though it does have a small driver side wiper). I can tell you that it is an absolute BLAST to drive. Super fast. Can light the tires up without breaking a sweat! My dad did all the maintenance, but since I've had it, I've had my mechanic take care of it-- he's done the following: new plugs, battery, master cylinder and rear brake cylinders. Price: $27,500 negotiable |

Ford Tourneo ready for duty in Connect, Courier and Custom flavors [w/videos]
Wed, 06 Mar 2013Ford was relatively quiet at the Geneva Motor Show, but it did take the opportunity to roll out its new family of Tourneo vans: the Courier, Connect, Grand Connect and Custom. As the passenger version of the Transit cargo vans, the new range of Tourneo models vary from the B-segment Courier up to the fullsize Custom.

Like the 2014 Transit Connect was saw in Paris last year, the Tourneo Connect comes in a five-seat configuration while the Grand Connect can seat seven. Finally, the Tourneo Custom seats up to nine passengers, and it is available in two lengths up to 210 inches long putting it just six inches shorter than a standard-length E-Series van and about a foot longer than the Explorer.

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years
Wed, 01 May 2013While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
Ford opens 88 new dealerships in China in a single day
Mon, 23 Jun 2014"Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last year." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China during the first half of 2014." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last month." None of those statements - even the last one - would seem unbelievable. Saying "Ford opened up 88 dealerships in China last Thursday," though, is a bit more dramatic.
Yes, on June 19 alone, Ford opened the doors on nearly 100 showrooms in the People's Republic, boosting the Blue Oval's total presence in the country to 750 dealerships. Of course, while an overabundance of dealers in the US proved troublesome for American manufacturers back in 2008 and 2009, there's no such concern in China. Considering the country's huge population and the breakneck pace of the local auto industry, you could be forgiven for being surprised Ford only has 750 outlets at this stage.
What's notable about this most recent push, besides the sheer volume of new stores, is their location. Over three-quarters of the new dealerships are in so-called Tier 4 cities, which are smaller towns that still contain millions of people. This fits with Ford's strategy in China of avoiding the bigger battlegrounds that are already dominated by competitors and focusing on setting up shop in newer markets that may have been overlooked, according to Automotive News.
