1928 Ford Model A Phaeton touring car. It is a four door, cream in color with gray pin striping and orange accent. The car is an eye catcher and crowd pleaser. This car is a driver (as opposed to a show car). It has been super reliable for us (it is our personal car) and runs well. The tires all have good tread. The interior is in good condition. The car is an older restoration, it has few nicks in the paint and a little surface rust (too small to see in these pictures) in a couple spots, no dents and no rust through. The top has a patch over the driver area and some pulling off in the back. Honestly, we don’t drive the car if it looks like it will rain (and we did not buy a convertible to drive with the top up), we have never used the top, we just leave it down. The spring in the rear driver side door is broken; a new door latch will be included with the car. The car is fun to drive and always draws a crowd and is a hit in parades. I would not hesitate to take it on a long drive. We are selling it because we are moving to a smaller place and won’t have room for all of our cars. If you would like to chat about the car, leave your phone number in an eBay message and I will give you a call. The car has a transferable New York registration ( NY does not issue titles for cars manufactured before 1973, see http://www.dmv.ny.gov/proove.htm ) Naturally because this in an 85 year old car, it is sold “as is, where is” without any warranty. The car is a good driver but in all fairness if you have not owned an antique car before, be aware that all old cars take some tinkering from time to time. The buyer will be responsible for pick-up and any transportation.

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
Toyota, Ford and Honda again top Consumer Reports Car-Brand Perception Survey
Fri, 01 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has released its annual Car-Brand Perception Survey, and the list looks awfully familiar. The top six brands are identical to last year's results, with Toyota, Ford and Honda continuing to occupy the podium. All told, Toyota walked away with 133 points, putting it 15 ahead of second-place Ford. Honda jumped 26 points this year, narrowing Ford's lead to just four points in total.
Consumer Reports polls buyers from across the country on how they see multiple brands in seven categories, including quality, safety, value, performance, design/style, technology/innovation and environmentally friendly/green. Researchers then combine the findings to come up with the total brand score.
While value and performance remain important to buyers, CR found quality and safety are still on top when it comes to significance. Scion and Mitsubishi found themselves at the bottom of the pack with the worst score of all, tied at just six points. Ram, Fiat and Mini filled out the lowest five with scores of seven, eight and 10 points, respectively. You can read the full press release below for more information, or head over to the Consumer Reports site.
Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
