 Great chance to get a traditional hotrod project or restoration and sell the extra parts. This is a 1929 Ford Model A Sport Coupe with clean NC title. It is currently non-running and only needs timed, fuel, and battery charged to run again. This was originally a California car, and has only suffered minor rust issues in the lower cowl panels, lower front quarter panels, and very minor on the quarter panel area next to where the rumble seat lid goes. I have started to strip the car of the bad panels: rumble seat lid (still have for patch pieces), rear buggy spring cover, and panel blow rumble seat (new panel included). All glass is intact and trim pieces still there. Water pump was rebuilt in 2011 as I used to drive this around the neighborhood....and does not leak. This is a very very solid Model A, especially for being a soft top car. I have seen hard regular coupes and sedans that are far worse off than this. It has never had the body removed, its never sat in the mud or on the ground. Great for a hotrod, ratrod, gasser, lakester, restoration, or resto-mod. Soft top cars in this condition are not easy to come by.

Traditional hotrod parts included:

-The frame is from Riley Automotive in Colorado (they specialize in hot rods). It's their Double Z frame which includes: model A cross-member, adjustable transmission mount with ladderbar mounts, Ford F1 style shock and headlight mounts, vega steering box mount, pan hard mount, and has a front kick up of 4inches in the front and 8inches of kick up in the rear to give you a nice traditional stance.

-The front end kit is also from Riley and is sold as the Dry Lake kit. This is a complete front end, all hardware, and all quality pieces. It has the '39 style Lincoln drum brakes (bendix), chassis engineering 4inch drop axle ('32 heavy duty style) with lightening holes. The rest of the parts are Pete & Jakes: front spring, shackles, kingpins, tie rod, panhard bar, steering arms, spindles, hubs (5x5.5), lower shock mounts, and tie rod ends. Also included is a set of split '36 or '37 wishbones that correspond to axle. (over $1900 in parts)

-WWII B-25 bomber seats x2 (original)

-Chrysler 331 dual quad intake (actual vintage piece)

-1955 Chrysler 331 HEMI core, disassembled, complete minus oil pan and original intake manifold, also included are new valve covers with correct stamped "Firepower" and chevy water pump adapter.

-WWII bomber oxygen tank (make that 2 now...no space and no need)

-will throw in a 330 DeSoto HEMI core also (no space or need for it)

-custom made aircraft style seatbelts, 2in wide made to look like 40's/50's military style...these cost me over $350 to have made....DOT approved

- Ford F1 steering box, 1940 Ford steering wheel (needs re-boned) and column, Chrysler HEMI to chevy TH-350 transmission adapter and flywheel,

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.
