This beautiful 1929 Right Hand Drive Ford Model A RS Roadster was built new at the Ford plant in Argentina. Ford began producing cars in South America around 1925 and it is my understanding that most of the cars built there were Phaeton's and it is rare to see a Right Hand Drive Roadster, especially one that retains so much of it's original parts. Many of the mechanical parts including the oil breather cap, bell housing, intake manifold, generator, crank pulley, along with many of the internal parts are stamped Industria, Argentina. Even the timing gear which I changed was stamped Argentina. The original water pump was an enclosed pump and comes with the car. The tires are 450 21" Good Year, also stamped Industria, Argentina and in overall good condition for the age. The running boards on the car are the early Brazilian Walnut running boards and in exceptional condition. Even the rear axle housings are the correct South American cast style. The rear bumper clamps are the original cast with the Ford script in them. The front ones are also the correct original cast with no script.The interior of the car appears to be the original leather and in great shape for the age. The car is in overall beautiful condition and runs smooth and strong.
The car was brought to the United States, (Texas) back in the early 1980's. A title was issued for it in Texas with the VIN number listed above. The original Ford VIN number is still visible on the block and is *AF2763598* The car was serviced at that time and repainted. The top was probably replaced at that time also. There is an original Texas inspection sticker from 1987 still on the windshield. A gentleman from New York bought the car and it was part of his private collection for many years. I purchased the car from him a little over 5 years ago. Over the past couple months the following work was done: ENGINE

2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown
Wed, 09 Apr 2014Ford has made an art of deeper-than-normal midlife updates since the 2010 Fusion, a strategy that has allowed it to keep models looking fresher in showrooms for longer without needing full redesigns. Instead of slight touchups to light fixtures, new paint colors and perhaps new wheel patterns, Ford has been digging deeper, with significant sheetmetal changes and very different front-end looks, along with an increased emphasis on new in-car technologies to keep models vibrant. Other automakers are following this trend, and Ford itself is continuing on the path with this new 2015 Focus Sedan.
There's a handsome new SE Sport Package that includes a firmer touring suspension, modest body kit and 17-inch wheels.
We first saw this sleek Aston Martin-like nose fitted to a Focus at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but Ford only showed the new look on the five-door hatchback - this is the first appearance of the sedan, which will bow at next week's New York Auto Show. The front end treatment is the same, with a new hood, new headlamps incorporating LED accents, a different grille shape and a completely revised lower fascia that does away with the 2014 model's controversial triangle-shaped corners and gaping intakes. The rear gets a new two-piece, laser-brazed trunk lid with new taillamps, but the overall look is quite similar to last year's car. In any case, the refreshed look brings the Focus sedan more in line with the design of Ford's other recently reworked cars, including the Fusion and Fiesta.
2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
Ford says C-Max mpg reduction has hurt sales
Tue, 22 Apr 2014The Ford C-Max is having a rough time. Sales for the five-door hybrid hatchback were down 39.1 percent in March to 2,295 cars, and sales from January through March were down 42.5 percent to 5,566 units. In an interview with The Detroit News, Ford Americas boss Joe Hinrichs places the blame on lowering the model's fuel economy rating.
"We're definitely seeing consideration on C-Max decline over time. We need to reinvest in the product because it's a great car," said Hinrichs to The Detroit News.
The company was hit with bad publicity over the C-Max when owners in multiple states filed class action lawsuits that alleged the cars weren't able to meet the stated fuel economy. Ford eventually re-rated the model from 47 miles per gallon city, highway and combined to 40 mpg city, 45 mpg highway and 43 mpg combined. To soften the blow of the change, the automaker sent checks to the owners to make up some of the difference. Initially, Ford claimed that demand remained strong for the hybrid. However, the latest sales figures and Hinrichs' statement seem to show the opposite.
