1927 Model T Ford Four Door, Straight Steel Body, Many New Parts. Hard Work Done on 2040-cars
Hamilton, Michigan, United States

The Ford Motor model T commonly
known as the Tin Lizzie, is an automobile that was produced by Henry Ford's
Ford Motor Company from October 1, 1908 to May 27, 1927. It is generally regarded as the first
affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class
American; some of this was because of Ford's efficient fabrication, including
assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting. The Ford Model T was named the world's most
influential car of the 20th century in an international poll. The Model T was the first
automobile mass-produced on moving assembly lines with completely
interchangeable parts, marketed to the middle class. Henry Ford said of the vehicle: "I will build a car for the great
multitude. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for the
individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials,
by the best men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering
can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary
will be unable to own one – and enjoy with his family the blessing of hours of
pleasure in God's great open spaces. Get yourself a great piece of
American history. Imagine this car could
have been the last car Henry Ford watched come off the line on May 27, of
1927. This car needs a new home and all
the hard work has been done. The motor
has been gone through and there is one new piston and new gaskets. Transmission has new forward and reverse
bands. The carburetor is rebuilt and
works well. This car wiring has completely
been replaced from key switch to all electrical parts, as well as the coil
boxes rebuilt. The car has electric
start on a 6 volt system, with a new battery, but also runs well off the
magneto. This four door car is all steel
and is very straight with very little rust.
All the window and door mechanics work but does need some glass
work. There are a few things that need
to be done. It will need new tires. The interior needs finishing and some glass replaced. There is a small box of parts that go along
with this car that has a horn and all the door parts. Good luck bidding. Any questions call 616.836.3424. Also check out Video on Youtube |

2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST priced from $21,400* [w/poll]
Tue, 26 Feb 2013The 2014 model year brings a whole host of changes to Ford's Fiesta B-Segment fighter, the most important of which (to our enthusiast eyes, anyway) is the addition of a potent new ST model. The US-spec hot hatch was first shown at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show last November, and thanks to Ford's build-and-price site, we've now learned that the Fiesta ST will slide in at $21,400 when it goes on sale later this year (*not including $795 for destination).
Under the hood of the ST is a turbocharged 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline-four good for 197 horsepower and 214 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed manual transmission. Ford hasn't released performance data on its pint-sized puncher just yet, but know that these numbers make the Fiesta ST ever-so-slightly more powerful than the larger Volkswagen GTI while returning an estimated 34 miles per gallon on the highway.
Elsewhere in the lineup, the standard Fiesta also gets a smattering of improvements for the 2014 model year, including a new 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine and revised exterior styling. Pricing for the 2014 Fiesta sedan starts at $14,000, with the five-door model adding $600 to that number (again excluding the $795 destination fee).
Chevy Silverado frame twist test a marketing victory versus Ford
Thu, 16 Oct 2014The pickup market is so competitive that all three major American makers are constantly trying to find a way to prove their product is the best. The new 2015 Ford F-150 is grabbing headlines at the moment by winning awards and posting segment best numbers. But in a new video, Chevrolet is taking aim squarely at the 2015 F-250 Super Duty in a battle of heavy-duty truck supremacy against the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD... well, in a single metric anyway.
The big numbers from pickups often come down to payload, towing rating and fuel economy, but for this test, Chevy and Howie Long are challenging the torsional rigidity of the trucks' frames, specifically which one flexes less. Long plays the everyman here having the Chevy engineer explain what's going on in the tests. Unsurprisingly for a video on Chevy's official YouTube page, the 2500HD wins out by a good margin. The company also reports that similar results as shown here have been certified in third-party testing.
Check out the video to see the full test. While this might seem like a marketing win for Chevy, Ford isn't immune to it, either. In 2009, the Blue Oval uploaded a similar video comparing the flex under 225 pounds of weight from the bare frames of the F-150, Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram (as it was still called at the time) and the Toyota Tundra. The results fell in the Blue Oval's favor, as you can see here.
