Two Barn Find Model T's 1926 Roadster And 1925 Tt Truck. Original Condition on 2040-cars
Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
|
The roadster is a 1926 in running condition, I drove this car for the first time. By that I never drove a model t before. No lessons. I took off with glee then remembered that the second gear was on the side lever. When it engaged the car took off and I felt like I hit the turbocharger! What a rush to go 25 mph that felt like 75 in car with such quick steering. I pulled down the throttle and coasted to a stop in front of the house in the photo. Fun fun fun! To get it running after years of sitting in a garage, all I had to do was clean out the carb and gas tank, charge the battery, add gas and viola it came to life. This is a nice little roadster. Interior as you can see in the photos is in great shape. The wire wheels set if off with a sporty look. A couple of the seat button are missing, no big deal.. The top and irons are in very good condition as well. There are some dings and dents that have accrued over it's lifetime but is part of it's ambience. Overall an 8 out of 10 to me. Remember it's original down to those flaws. The TT Truck is a 1925 with two speed Rucksdell axle. Also completely original. Everything is there. Might need need tires but they hold air and they are black. But all the same I would replace them if you are going to drive this truck to shows, parades or around the farm. The wood box is in good condition. When I found it, it was covered with a water bed bladder to preserve the wood. I seems to be all there. I also have three other model t's: 1919 touring that will need interior restoration. the body is pretty nice. Top irons and bows are there. All running gear is there. Missing windshield glass. Frame is there. 2 1925 deliveries. No body. front end complete to the cowl and steering wheel. These were made without bodies purposely so the owner could build their custom boxes or what have you for delivering and hauling items. I have read that were used for delivering newspapers, milk and mail to name a few uses. Or just buzzing around the farm! If interested in more conversation please call my with questions and comments before you bid. Both of these items are clear titled. The others do not have titles, either because they are too old or never registered by the original owners. Bill of sale will be given upon sale. Make me an offer for my whole collection if you like, including all parts.. The trailer in the photo was purchased for the express reason to haul the parts back the Las Vegas from North Dakota. It is available if you wish to purchase it along with the parts on it. It is a PJ 25' hitch type deluxe trailer. spring loaded attached ramps for easy use. heavy duty wiring package for cold seater. Crank down foot, electric brakes. The trailer was only used once to move the parts so there is about 1300 miles on it. Tows like a dream! There are several pallets of wheels, tires and rims that are not visible that would go with the rest on the trailer. i also have a ton of spare parts from this collection. 10 engines, fenders, wheels, transmissions, suspensions, axles, lights, sheet metal parts, coils and boxes, steering columns and much more. Many of the part are restored already. See photos. There are many more not shown. I am being reassigned overseas so I cannot take my collections with me as it is to prohibitive. Oh, One more thing, I have a 1963 Corvette Split Window Coupe for sale. $140,000. NOT STOCK BY ANY IMAGINE. LOOKS LIKE IT IN MANY WAYS BUT HIGHLY MODIFIED SHOW CAR. ASK FOR INFO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. THANKS FOR LOOKING. I will be out of town until the 18 th of July. So if you win this auction. You will have to collect your car/truck after that date. Come to Las Vegas and have fun when you come to pick up your classic vehicles. |

Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.
Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.
