1931 Model A Ford Flathead V8

Car was built in 1959 like it is. I've tried to keep it as close as possible to that. I have replaced the following: new Coker bias ply tires, all wheel cylinders, brake hoses, master cylinder, inner and outer rear axel seals, full dual exhaust, magna flow stainless steel mufflers, 6 volt battery.

Glass is in great condition, all windows roll up & down, doors close nicely. New roof. I've added turn signals and right rear tail light for safety. Still running stock gas tank which has been boiled out. All factory gages work. Oil and temperature gage are from a 1957 Jaguar and both work. Engine is a 1948 Ford flathead, runs strong - pulls 20 inches of vacuum at idle. Tranny is 1937 Ford 3-speed. Rear end is stock banjo. Frame is Stock Model A. 1949 Mercury reversed rims. 1960 Chevy truck master cylinder also has original ansen swing pedals. All lights and charging system work great. Stock front seats. I have front and rear bumpers, spare tire and mount and rear seat upper spring frame - I have lower seat springs, not correct but will go with car anyway. I also have hood sides. I've put a super bell 4 inch dropped axle and all tie rod ends, needle bearing, king pins, and pitman arm. I've also had shocks installed all around. Steering wheel is 1940 Ford. Heater fan works. I've never hooked it up to the engine so I don't know how core is. I was told it was out of a 1940 Ford. Brake system is 1948 juice breaks. There is a little rust on the right rear quarter panel lip and some small pinholes at bottom lip of doors (see pictures). That is the worst part on the cars body. The body is tight. There are no patch panels on this body - what you see is what you get. Body wood is also in very good condition. Car is not chopped or channeled. Front fenders are 50+ year old fiberglass in very good shape. Rest of car is all original steel.

Problems: Steering box needs rebuild. Car has front wheel wobble at low speed. The wobble goes away over 30mph. Transmission pops out of 2nd gear when coming down in high rpm (just started doing this). There are no other issues with the car.

I do have some knowledge of cars history as told to me by cars previous owner. Car is currently registered and inspected. Car was said to be primer red in the early 60's. It was grey when built in 1959. Car was also autographed by Candy Clark from American Graffiti (see pictures). Car is located in Nazareth, PA if you want to come look. Car is for sale locally I reserve the right to remove from eBay at any time.

2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.

Watch Piquet and Mansell bend some sheetmetal in Ford Fusion GP

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

As we told you about before, there were four episodes planned for the Ford Fusion GP campaign in Brazil, and the whole series has now run its course. The Ford ads pit Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet against English F1 pilot Nigel Mansell driving the new Fusion, the two coming together again after their partnership at the Williams F1 team ended in a miserable state more than 20 years ago.
They're lined up for you below, in reverse chronological order. You should watch number three first, though, as it adds a bit more spice to the NASCAR action in the fourth.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
