First. I am listing this vehicle for my Father, who does not have any computer experience. His contact info will be below so that you can contact him with any questions or picture requests. I own a full service Automotive Repair shop and also do complete restorations, over 40 to date. If the high bidder wishes I can complete a full or partial restoration on this vehicle prior to shipping it. My rates are half of the industry Standard, we rely on lots of work vs. high prices and less work. The shop is Vader Automotive Repair, located in Vader Washington and of course we are licensed (City, State and Fed.) and insured (upto 2M per incident).
This Auction is for a 1929 Model A 2 door Sedan, body model = 55A, Serial number is 1910457, it was built in mid July of 1929 and sold for $490.00 New... You wont get it for that today:). This is a GREAT car and is almost all original. The only aftermarket item that comes to mind is a zineth carb that was put on it. It has a 4 cyl, that was advertised to have 40 HP. The running gear, transmission, engine, and interior are all original. The Interior is ruff but usable and is all complete, so easy to restore. All the gages are original and work as do all the lights. The car has 72712 miles on it as it sits right now. It has always been stored inside and for the last 10 years or so it has been stored inside an airplane hanger at the Klawock City Airport on Prince Of Whales Island in SE Alaska. The car is being sold "delivered to Seattle". So buyer will have to arrange shipping from there to where ever home is. Before making the trip up to SE Alaska the car made Oregon its home. It was bought new by a guy in Springfield Oregon and for close to 30 years (prior to my fathers purchase) was stored in his auto repair shop when it was not chasing parts. In the last 10 years it has only collected a few miles a year, My father drives it in the parade a couple times a year and takes a cruise or two during the summer months. The rest of the time it sits next to his 1959 Piper PA-24-180, which is an awsome plane with a ton done to it and also for sale. Back to the 1929 Model A. It runs and drives great and starts easy, it is all original with the following being new or after market. It has a Zeineth Carborator, all new glass and the window cranks have all been replaced with new after market ones. The upolstry is ruff but all Original, All the insterments and gages work good and are readable. It has no E-Brake, some where along the line it was taken off. It is still wearing the 1929 Oregon license plate tghat was issued to it, and comes with the original Ford Model A book. If you have any questions please call Roger at (907) 723-3400 and he can answer them. The title is clear and ready to be transfered as soon as it is located, seller (once reserve is meet) will arrange and pay the cost of shipping to Seattle Washington. Buyer must take deliver there unless otherwise arranged. Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs past Seattle. I will sell to overseas buyers and can assist in arranging shipping out of the country.. There are not many of these babys left and very very few in this good of original condition, this is a great restoration project.

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.
1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
Ford Escort returns, just not for US
Sat, 19 Apr 2014Ford is set to give the burgeoning Chinese market its very own C-segment model, while also reviving one of the brand's more notable nameplates. The new Escort, which will make its world debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show will be built in the People's Republic at the Changan Ford joint venture facility.
The Escort's exterior is best thought of as a mix of the finer points from the US market Focus and Fusion, with the Aston Martin-ish grille and narrow, wraparound taillights presenting a clean look at either end of the car. It's all fairly true to the concept car from last year's Shanghai Motor Show. That said, this exterior job is almost too clean. There doesn't seem to be a lot of character or substance beyond the typical Ford looks.
There's a similar issue in the cabin - it all looks pretty nice, but the design is rather plain, particularly when viewed alongside the display-filled cabin of a US-spec car. Still, there looks to be a fair amount of space in both the front and back seats, and the trunk isn't exactly tiny, either.
