1930 170B Model A Ford Fordor Blind Back 2-Window Project
I have a project that originated from a barn in White Earth, North Dakota (the original owners). I picked up this Model A as the second owner and it is now registered and titled in Arizona to the VIN on the frame. I even have a restored 1930 Arizona Mohave County license plate on it, which can go with the vehicle if you want it. The 1930 Ford Model A 170B two-window blind back is actually a very rare version of the vehicle. It still has an original eyebrow fender, which is only found on 1930 models produced before February. The original VIN on the frame indicates that the engine was produced in November 1929, which is typical for the Model As, as there was usually an 8 to 10 week period between engine production and complete assembly. There are also other indicators of an early 1930 Model A, besides the eyebrow fender (which is rare in itself), as some of the original hardware is from the 1929 style (such as the door handles). Again, this was typical as they would run the existing stock out at the end of the year before they moved to using the new stocks. This vehicle was in a fire at some point in its past and there is a bullet hole in it, which you may want to keep for conversational purposes... The vehicle is complete and almost everything to restore it can be purchased new from a number of suppliers (such as MACs Antique Auto Parts). The fenders will need some work, and might need to be replaced, depending on how much effort you want to put into them. We were just going to replace them and have a friend do the metal work on the fender for the original eyebrow style. The vehicle is currently in two pieces, as we were about to begin the restoration and have just not had the time or the money to continue it. The following is a list of additional parts for the vehicle.
Call Mandy for appointment to see it or with any questions at nine28 two7nine 2one3nine We are willing to assist in loading. This item is listed in multiple venues, so it is possible that it may be sold prior to the ending of this listing. |

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.
