This is a 1929 Ford Model A Roadster, It is in driving condition, runs well and stops well. It has been in storage for over 60 years. It was never restored, It was painted green and red in the 40s by a man who came home from service after WWII. It has the typical scratches and dings of an old unrestored car. It is very solid with just a few spots of rust. He also painted the interior red along with the firewall to snap it up a bit. I did take the oil pan and the head off and found it had been rebuilt 60 over and still had white grease on the crank and almost no carbon on the pistons. I put a new head gasket on and that was that! The drive train is all original and has just been maintained through the years. It was a trunk model but the owner flipped the lid down and brazed it in place as a rumble seat. I cut off the welds and turned it back to a trunk. The interior door panels and kick panels were made of sheet metal and were well done for 60 years ago. Other than that it is the way it was fixed up back in the 40s. The headlight and taillight wiring needs to be redone as it is still the old cloth covered type. The rims are 17 inch 1934 models. The exhaust is straight with no muffler, it exits just in front of the rear tire under the running board, it has a nice throaty sound. I did put a new battery in it last year. The patina on this car is just great. The car could be left as is and driven. It is a true period piece, it is very hard to find a roadster that has been left alone all these years! The old homestead is sold so its time to go to a new caretaker as I just don't have room to keep it anymore.

Lincoln recycling tree fibers into new MKX armrest

Thu, Feb 27 2014

Want to hug a tree, or at least a really small part of one. Then set your arm down on one of those armrests in the 2014 Lincoln MKX crossover. The US automaker is working with Weyerhaeuser and Johnson Controls on a tree-based, cellulose-reinforced polypropylene material used in the component that connects the armrest to the floor console, Wards Auto says. With properties similar to plastic, the tree-based material replaces fiberglass and is about six percent lighter. No big deal for now, but if the material starts getting used for things like battery trays and interior storage covers, that loss in weight may eventually start adding up enough to boost fuel economy a bit, providing a green double bonus. Lincoln parent Ford, which isn't saying how much more (or less?) it costs to use the new material, established its Biomaterials and Plastics Research team in 2001. In 2007, the company began using soy-based foam in car seats used for models such as the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Mustang and has since broadened biomaterials use to components like floormats and cupholder inserts. Ford also used recycled plastic bottles from the 2012 North America International Auto Show for seats in the Focus Electric.
