Selling my 1924 Model T Tudor sedan. I bought this car as a project and have done some work to it, but have run out of time, ability and desire. The body is in nice shape very little rust for a 90 year old car. It has some surface rust here and there, the right front fender is the only spot on the whole car where it is through(see closeup, it's small). Some surface rust under the step boards. The chassis/frame are in solid shape. The car has ancient paint, the lower windshield and rear right window are cracked, the rest of the glass is in great shape. All the windows roll up and down but are a bit stiff, the drivers goes up and down, but stops about 3/4 the way up. The tires have tons of tread left, but are starting to show tiny age cracks, so to be safe you should replace them. The wood wheels are good and solid. The interior is original and all there, should be replaced, it's pretty stained.  The rubber roof and roof wood needs replacing. The wood floor is in nice shape.  The battery was shot when I bought it, so I put in a new battery, and she cranks, the horn and lights work.  I then put in new spark plugs, spark plug wires, rebuilt the Holley NH carb, and actually got it running but very poorly, very, very poorly, where it starts up puttery and will run a few seconds and die.  It will not run long enough time to drive.  That's where I am with the car right now.  I went on some websites and they said check the coils, check the timer etc., that is beyond me, please be familiar with these cars before you buy. 

I have about $700-800 in brand new parts that go with the car. They were ordered from Macs and Langs specialist Model T parts. 

They are.......A roof wood kit from MACs made specifically for this car(cost $450), a custom car cover specifically for this car, Ford spare tire cover, Ford floor mats, coolant pipe, hoses and clamps, pedal boots, pedal pads, 4 window cranks, 4 window crank escutcheons, carb hot air pipe, door bumpers, brake pads and springs, step plate screws, patent plate, Ford script radiator plate, brass fuel shut off valve, 2 brass radiator petcocks, and some catalogues to order parts from. 

They sell the rubber roof kit for about $120, so the majority of the cost is taken care of already since I am providing the wood kit.

I have tried to describe this car as well as I could and put in tons of pictures, so keep in mind it's 90 years old and needs work/restoration, so expect what you see in pictures. It is a really solid and complete car to start with. If you have a bit more knowledge and time than me, it should be up and going pretty easily.  Clean, open Florida title, in previous owners name, ready to go in your name. I will also give a bill of sale. Sold as is, with no warranty. If you are local and want to inspect it before bidding, I encourage that, just let me know. No complaining or asking questions afterwards. Deposit of $250 due within 2 days through Paypal, the balance in cash within 2 weeks. If you are out of state and need more time, let me know BEFORE you bid, maybe when can work something out. Buyer responsible for shipping costs and arranging shipping plans to pick up from my house. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time, for any reason.

Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]

Thu, 21 Aug 2014



They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
