1930 Ford Model A Coupe 3659 Miles! Same Family Owned Last 40 Yrs! on 2040-cars
Spencer, Massachusetts, United States
This is a 1930 model a coupe that has been in the same family for the past 40 years. Its had a complete restoration in the mid 70's by my father which took several years, and has since been driven only 3659 miles. It was restored to original condition with no upgrades and the body is all steel. It has spent much more time in storage than on the road. It starts right up, runs and drives ok, but Im sure it could use a complete tune up. Its only been used for parades and short trips around town. It has a rumble seat that kids love to ride in. Again this is a 40 year old restoration! the paint is blistering in some spots, you have to get up close to see, I took pics of the worse spots, but overall for a restoration that old, it looks really nice! Its never seen rain! I hate to let it go but I dont use it, and cant continue to keep storing it. It is for sale locally also, so the auction will end early if it sells, thanks for looking. call 508-885-4582

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
Ford dinged by OSHA for asbestos at Buffalo plant
Sat, 20 Jul 2013Ford has come under fire from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for violations regarding asbestos exposure in a company metal stamping plant in Buffalo, NY. OSHA has cited Ford for eight violations in total, according to an Automotive News report, and faces fines of up to $41,800. 537 workers are employed at the stamping facility.
The violations include a pipefitter at the facility being exposed to asbestos-containing material while working on a steam line, other workers exposed to the material without respiratory protection and work areas that were not designed to limited the number of workers in contact with asbestos. Further, areas in which asbestos was present were not properly restricted, and levels of asbestos in the air were not monitored.
According to an unnamed Ford spokesperson in the AN report, the company feels that the OSHA citation is erroneous saying, "We have fully cooperated with the local OSHA officials and we don't believe the citations are warranted." Ford also maintains that it will work with the authorities to resolve the issue.
