Ford 1923 Ford Model T T Bucket Old School Build Clear 1923 T Title No Reserve on 2040-cars
Saint Michael, Minnesota, United States
Up for auction is my 1923 Ford T-Bucket. It is older build and is showing it's age. The fiberglass shell has a few areas of damage that will need some attention whenever you get around to it. They are not really visible, but if you look at the back where the trunk is you may be able to see them. The windshield post appears to be original to a 23 T and the glass is break free. Side steps for ease of getting in and a Cassette player with 4 speakers that are of no use when the vehicle is started. Break lights, headlights, blinkers and tail lights work as they should. There is also a working wiper arm as shown, but of no use. Solid frame and there is disc brakes on the front and drum brakes with a 9" Ford rear-end in the rear. The motor is either a 327 or 350 Chevy with Camel Back heads, an over size cam ( specs unknown ) and a Edelbrock 6-pack manifold with adjustable electronic fuel pump. There is no choke so it is very cold blooded when started until slightly warmed up. The carbs could use adjustment, I could not find any-one local to tune them, so they will need some adjustment or rebuilds. There is an electronic ignition installed with a 50,000 volt coil. The engine is loud due to no baffles in the exhaust and has a very severe cam loop to it, Electronic fan installed, but I had never used it yet and have done a few parades. The transmission I am unsure of, but I would probably guess a turbo-350. The front seal has a very small leak to it when sitting for a few days. The car is a good driver with new plugs, electronic ignition, oil change and new plug wires. I am sure I forgot something, but email me and I can answer any questions. I do work until 7:00 PM and answer emails after that. The car runs down the road good, is very loud and still draws plenty of looks. Maybe due to the vehicle, or the un-baffled exhaust. Personally I am a Ford guy and if it does not sell I will pull the Chevy motor and trans out sell it and install a Ford motor in it. Just my preference. THE VEHICLE IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITH NO WARRENTY APPLIED. Buyer is responsible for picking up the car or arranging for shipping. I will accept PayPal, Cashiers check along with cash as payment methods. All payment method beside cash will need to clear the bank before the car is released. Please email with any questions. I will need a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 3 days of auction ending and payment if full within 10 days of auction ending. I can store the car for a couple of weeks while transport is arranged. |

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
How the Ford Shelby Mustang came to be
Fri, 20 Sep 2013Even as rumors swirl that the next-generation of high-performance Ford Mustang will drop the Shelby name, Ford has released a short video telling how the legend of the Shelby Mustang came to be. In its latest installment of its video series entitled Mustang Countdown, Ford dug up some footage from Carroll Shelby to give a little insight into how this automotive icon was created.
While it's definitely interesting to hear the late legend tell the story in his own words (including numerous references to the 1964 Mustang as a "secretary's car"), it's also pretty funny learning exactly how the Shelby GT350 got its name in the first place - a name allegedly making a comeback as the replacement for the current Shelby GT500. As development work continues on the 2015 Ford Mustang, the Shelby video posted below shows that the automaker is always looking at its past - even as it looks ahead to the future.
Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
