This auction is for a good 1930 Ford Roadster. Clean 1930 Ford Title in hand. It is black and shinny and drives and runs good. Very nice interior and rumble seat. The cars gauges and all the lights work right. The head lights work correctly with the bright and dim switch on the steering column. It has two taillights and has a four blade fan with the leak less water pump. It does not run hot at all. It has an Alternator instead of the old generators. It has a new fuse block and fuse and wires on the starter. It also has a new battery box and battery hold down and a new ignition box that goes on the fire wall above the back of the head. It also has a pair of small side windows that go with the car. I have found no rust on the at all, as you can see in the pictures of the bottom panels, witch were replaced rears ago. It went through a complete body off restoration about 10 years ago and it still shows great. It does have a few small chips and a ding or two on it. It is not a show car but with a little work it could be. The top looks new with no rips or tears in it and lowers and raises easy. The interior is in excellent shape. It has 5 good tires with a stainless steel spare tire cover. I will except foreign bidders but will have to know where your from before you bid. All shipping will be the responsibility of the winning bidder. I will hold the car in my person for a few days, but full payment will have to be made within 5 days of end of auction.

Detroit automakers mulling helping DIA avoid bankruptcy looting

Tue, 13 May 2014

It's not really a secret that the city of Detroit is in lots and lots of trouble. Even with an emergency manager working to guide it through bankruptcy, a number of the city's institutions remain in very serious danger. One of the most notable is the Detroit Institute of Arts, a 658,000-square-foot behemoth of art that counts works from Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin and Rembrandt (not to mention a version of Rodin's iconic "The Thinker," shown above) as part of its permanent collection.
Throughout the bankruptcy, the DIA has been under threat, with art enthusiasts, historians and fans of the museum concerned that its expansive collection - valued between $454 and $867 million by Christie's - could be sold by the city to help square its $18.5-billion debt.
Now, though, Detroit's hometown automakers could be set to step up and help save the renowned museum. According to a report from The Detroit News, the charitable arms of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler could be set to donate $25 million as part of a DIA-initiated campaign, called the "grand bargain." As part of the deal, the DIA would seek $100 million in corporate donations as part of a larger attempt at putting together an $816-million package that would be paid to city pension funds over 20 years. Such a move would protect the city's art collection from being sold off.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a bit of a dyno issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

We're of the mind that each and every dyno should come with Murphy's Law painted in big, visible letters down the side. For every ten successful dyno runs out there, it seems there's one where events to horribly wrong. Take, for example, the video below. The clip shows what happens when a Ford Shelby GT500 and a mobile dyno have a bit of a disagreement at the Performance Expo 24 in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We won't spoil the results for you, but we will say there's some substantial carnage involved.
It's unclear just how much damage ensues from the dust up or whether anyone was harmed in the incident, but from the looks of things, everyone made it out without serious injury. If only we could say the same for the machines involved. Check out the video below.

A tribute to William Clay Ford

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
