I purchased this chassis to build a 5 window coupe for myself, but ended up buying a finished car from a fellow club member, hence the chassis is for sale. It is a running driving chassis, complete with radiator, grill shell, hood, cowl, gas tank, floor boards etc. as shown in the photos.   This is the nicest Model A frame I have ever seen.  No bends, splits, tears, welds or modifications of any kind.   There are very few rust pits and the running board brackets are mounted with the original Ford rivets.  The engine has just had the valves ground and  head surfaced.  It runs beautifully, with lots of power and no smoke or unusual noises. It comes with a Zenith carburetor, with all stock linkage in place.    The clutch does not chatter, the transmission shifts smoothly and there are no unusual noises from either the transmission or rear end.  I just took it for a two mile drive yesterday.  All components have been cleaned, detailed and painted (frame painted with chassis black), ready for your next project.  New brake rods have been installed, and all brakes (including the emergency brake) adjusted. All fluids are fresh.   The cowl is from a closed car, and could be the start of a woody wagon, speedster or remove it and install your body.  It has been cleaned, primed and painted with semi-gloss black.  Wheels (with stock hubcaps) are very nice and tires are " good rollers".  The radiator is original and has been repaired, but cools well and does not leak. The steering has some play in it, and have not attempted to set the alignment or make any adjustments.  The muffler is near new, but has a dent in the bottom that does not impair its function and is not obvious unless you are on your back.   If desired, I will provide the buyer with 4  freshly powder coated red wheels and new Bedford tires (no miles) for an additional $500 (shown on last photo).  The engine number indicates a June 1930 build.  The chassis is being sold with a bill of sale only (no title will be provided). eBay requires that I state the type of title, but there is no title.   You can acquire a title or have your DMV issue a constructed vehicle title.   Shipping is the buyer's responsibility, but I will assist in loading.  I will also store for up to 30 days after the sale at no charge.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions via email or phone--Bill (971) 235-3804

Toyota, Ford not interested in FCA merger

Mon, Jun 15 2015

Sergio Marchionne will preach the benefits of mergers to anyone who'll listen, but his calls for industry consolidation may be falling on deaf ears. At least, that is, the ears of those who the Fiat Chrysler chief would most like to bend. Not only is General Motors uninterested, but according to The Detroit News, neither are Toyota or Ford. "It's something we would not be interested in," said Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Toyota Technical Center. "At 10 million (vehicles) we have enough scale right now to do what we need to do. There really would be no advantage for us." Toyota isn't the only one unenthused by the prospect of merging with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The Detroit News also reports that Ford, though it may yet to have been approached by Marchionne, wouldn't be interested either. "We're not a suitor for FCA," said Ford CFO Bob Shanks. "We don't see that type of opportunity as one that applies to us." With GM, Toyota, and Ford expressing disinterest in Marchionne's merger idea, the FCA chief will likely start looking elsewhere – or look for other ways to compel his primary candidate to reconsider. He may eventually find a partner – more likely in the Far East or within Europe – but it may not take the form of the major player Sergio has hoped for.

Here's why automakers roll out those Texas-themed pickup trucks

Thu, Sep 29 2016

Every year, automakers with a full-size truck link make a big show of the Texas State Fair, usually involving a reveal of a new model. Sometimes they show a whole new truck, and other times a special edition centered on the Lone Star state. While some people might write this off as a quirk of the industry, others might be wondering, "What's the big deal with Texas?" As it turns out, part of the big deal with Texas is big truck sales. According to Dave Sullivan, product analysis manager at AutoPacific, Texas buys more trucks than any other state in the country. It's not a small margin either. Edmunds.com, one in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. The state also accounts for 15 percent of the country's large truck sales, which is more than twice that of California, the second largest truck market in America. Even when you break down sales only in Texas, trucks are a huge piece of the pie - Sullivan says that a quarter of new vehicle sales in Texas are trucks. One in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. But it's not just sales that make truck builders give attention to Texas. As Sullivan explained, "Pickups are life in Texas." Both he and Hugh Milne, marketing and advertising manager for the Chevy Silverado line, said that trucks are key fixtures in Texas society, as both work trucks and luxury vehicles (or Texas Cadillacs as Milne called them). Milne said Texas is so important in the truck market that if you want to be successful in the rest of the country, "you've got to be successful in Texas." As for the State Fair, it has become a prime location for reveals in part because of the importance of the Texas market and because of how big the fair is. Milne also revealed that the State Fair also hosts its own auto show, so it's an ideal venue for a vehicle introduction. So there you have it. Why do truck builders obsess over Texas? It's because Texas obsesses over trucks. When you have one market that loves your product that much, you give it the attention it deserves.

2015 Ford Mustang [w/videos]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013



It'd be unwise to bet against the sixth generation of this legendary nameplate.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is assuredly the most anticipated new vehicle of the year. The redesigned Pony Car has been the subject of frantic gossiping and covert spy photos covering everything from the way it looks to the tech it will include, its performance, mechanicals and a bevy of other aspects of Ford's performance icon.
