1909 Ford Model T Tourabout. Well preserved older restoration of a very original car, AACA National First Prize Winner. The tourabout model was introduced later in the 1909 model year and discontinued in early 1911. This particular car has been in storage for over 20 years. Has the original open valve engine # 6361 with the one piece pan and correct transmission cover. It is equipped with a Brass Kingston carburetor. The coil box is wood but slightly newer to accommodate the later coils. The box has an original Kingston switch complete with the original key. Windshield is a Rands and the horn a Rubes. The front and rear axles are unique southern track, with one piece spindles in front, a six rivet rear and correct wheels front and back. It has E&J 466 headlights with good mirrors and burners along with E&J side and tail light. The upholstery is leather and in excellent condition. It has a lined top that is in very good condition. The body is very original, see photo of original front and back cushion frames. As I said it is an older restoration, national first prize in 1962, but the paint is still in remarkable condition. Body number matches the engine number. There is some minor cracking especially at any joints. Car runs and drives well, even runs on mag. It is located in northern NJ in a heated building. Please call me at 201-327-7621 to inspect the car. It will be sold as is where is. Email me for any further information. I have some history of the car. It was discovered by Bob Thayer who started collecting cars in 1922 and probably owned more than 600 cars in his lifetime. He was a very early member of AACA. All payments must clear before the car is released. I can store the car for some time provided it is paid for. Can arrange for delivery within 300 miles.

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.

Ford bringing C-Max Solar Energi Concept to CES

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

Solar energy might not be enough to power a usable electric vehicle on its own, but that doesn't mean it can't lend a helping hand. And that's what Ford has in store for the Consumer Electronics Show opening next week in Las Vegas.
Ford has essentially taken its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid and fitted it with the latest in solar panel technology developed by SunPower, acting like a magnifying glass to capture as much of the sun's energy as possible. So you get the benefit of an electric vehicle, with the range assurance of a hybrid, without needing to draw from the grid.
Ford estimates that a day of charging in the sunshine will give the C-Max Solar Energi concept the same full charge as the production PHEV, with a total range of 620 miles - 21 of which can be run on electric power alone. Otherwise the vehicle - which remains a concept for the time being - is identical to the existing C-Max Energi. The top-selling model in Ford's growing hybrid and electric vehicle portfolio helps put Ford just behind Toyota among the top seller of hybrids in America. Scope out the images in the gallery above and the video clip and press release below for a closer look.
