I am selling a really nice, restored, 1926 Model T roadster. This is really a nice car, paint is so shiny you can see your old self in it. New upholstery and top, new tires, rebuilt engine. Runs nicely. I bought it in a package deal with a 1959 Ford that I went to look at. This car was in a garage, not running, had been bought at auction and the senior lady who bought it didn't know what to do with it. I had it transported to my garage, put in a new battery, replace some bulbs and a trunk key, fixed a manifold exhaust leak, cleaned the fuel system, cleaned up the coils (a friend did this - thanks!), put the new looking tires back to 70 pounds, and have been driving it! Have an extra set of plugs that I haven't put in yet (runs too well). The engine was rebuilt two owners ago, maybe 3 years ago, no records, but it runs well and doesn't leak, so it seems correct. Bands in transmission are tight, magneto works, lights work, charges. You may want to replace the water pump - the one in it has been repaired, and I don't think it circulates too well. Okay, now you have something to do.
I am putting in a lot of pictures to give you a good sense of what the car is like. Underside looks great, just needs to have a few dirt spatters wiped off. That is for the next owner to accomplish. Clear title, in my name. Let me know any questions, anything I might have missed. Feel free to call me at 864-884-3151. I try to be straight up on descriptions, because this is a hobby, and everyone should be happy. See my feedback.
The car is garaged, warm and dry, and I can hold it for 30 days after the auction, no problem. Thanks for looking!

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.
