See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Needs complete restoration to be safe. Very good body with little rust Some wood usable but most lower frame wood needs to be replaced. Engine runs pretty good and can be driven short distances safely."

This Model A was last driven in 1963 when it was put in storage but was damaged inside from being outside.  I acquired it from an individual that found it in Wisconsin and brought it to Tennessee where it was stored inside for several more years. I cleaned it out inside and rebuilt the carburetor and distributor, flushed the cooling system, replaced the oil and added a new battery.  After a few revolutions from the original starter it fired up and ran like it probably did in 1963.  The clutch chatters a little when starting out but it shifts like a normal Model A and all gears work fine. The brakes work as does the emergency brake. The radiator and shell appear in excellent condition.  There is also a hot water heater with a fan located on the passenger side. The neatest thing is the original Sparton horn works and sounds great. Even the headlights work.  It has 5 matching 19 inch wheels with tires that are older but with new tubes. It appears to have all the inside window and door trim panels and the window curtain brackets. The right rear door has a broken hinge and is nailed shut. This vehicle will make a great restoration project. I think this is a Murray Body Town Sedan but it could be a Deluxe Fordor.  If Someone can confirm which one it is, I would appreciate it. Call with questions, 219-771-1946. The vehicle is located just outside Knoxville, TN. Thanks for looking.

2015 Ford Mustang specs revealed, GT to pack 435 HP

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang sounds great so far - at least on paper. Ford has just announced specs for the latest version of the iconic pony car in Dearborn, telling Autoblog that it will pump out as much as 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque from its 5.0-liter V8.
Those gaudy figures power the naturally aspirated GT model, and they easily eclipse the "more than" 420 hp and 390 lb-ft that Ford originally estimated.
The 2.3-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder makes 310 hp and 320 lb-ft, and it's the first turbo Mustang since the 1986 SVO.

Ford Fiesta becomes UK all-time best seller

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

We may regard Ford as an American automaker, but ask a Brit and they may tell you otherwise. The Blue Oval has, after all, been selling cars in the UK since 1903, and started manufacturing there as far back as 1911 when it began local production of the Model T in Manchester. Last year Ford ended 100 years of vehicle manufacturing in the UK when the last Transit van rolled off the assembly line in Southampton, but it's still the biggest-selling automotive marque in Britain.
Ford has led the British market for 34 out of the past 45 years, selling more Fiestas than any other company sells any other car in the UK since 2009... when it overtook the Focus. In fact the Fiesta has now become the best-selling car in British history, topping 4,115,000 units since its introduction in 1976. The previous record was held by - you guessed it - another Ford: the Escort sold 4,105,961 units over the course of its 32 years on the British market.
Although the Fiesta is no longer manufactured in the UK (previous versions having been built at Dagenham until 2002), engines are: the EcoBoost line was developed at the company's R&D center in Essex and are built at the factory in Dunton, while its diesel engines were developed at Dagenham in East London. Even the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine in the Fiesta ST is built in South Wales.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.
