This is a very nice model a truck. The gentleman I bought it from spent a lot on the ground up restoration 2-4 years ago. This truck was bought here in Sheridan, WY back when it was new and used in the coal mines in the local area. It has been in this general area for all of its life. There isn't any rust in this truck due to our climate, vehicles tend to not rust in WYO. I am starting this auction at about half of what has been invested into this truck. It is still in need of various items and work but is real close to being done. It runs just fine. The dump bed is fully functional. It will come with other spare parts, couple dully rear ends, rims and etc....NEW TIRES...Brakes on the rear need to be hooked up and finished, some interior needs finished (complete box of interior items) It does have minor body defects, so please don't think its a showroom type of truck, but very well could be. Please call 307-674-9764 ask for Walt and I will try and answer all your questions. If I can't I can ask some of the local guys in the Model A Club. The truck was a little dirty when these pictures were taken. It has always been stored indoors and never driven in the winter time, so hence the dust. Cleans up very well though. The truck was titled as a 1928 because the 1928 frame, serial number and engine was used. The cab is a 1930 Model AA. This truck is the larger one used in the time period.

Ford is going to begin the celebrations at this week's New York Auto Show and continue them throughout the year, but April 17 is the official birthday of the the pony car that just won't quit. You can expect to start seeing anniversary merchandise in the next couple of weeks.
Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit
Thu, 24 Jul 2014While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.
Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California
Fri, 01 Mar 2013A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
