1930 FORD MODEL A ROADSTER: All original stock, steel, straight body & frame in very good restorable condition. Clean title for Sale by Owner. NO dents, NO damage. Small exterior spot of rust (See Photo) on bottom of outer passenger-side door, otherwise, no other rust that I can see. This roadster has the original stock motor and 3 speed manual transmission. The tires & spoked rims are in good condition though it does not have the 5th (spare) 15" wheel. It has all new wiring, headlights, amp & fuel gauges, new working alternator, which has been swapped to 12V, and battery. Wishbones & rear frame are all good and there are NO weldings. It has recently been completely lubed and is in good working & running condition. Paint & interior are original. Interior is pretty much shot, although the floor board has been replaced, and only really needs paint & interior. Assembly for convertable top may not be correct for this car. It is currently not connected to the front window frame, which is normally put down to better accomodate the car cover, and is how it came when we bought it from the previous owner.
SOME HISTORY ON THE CAR: My dad bought it from a private party in El Monte, CA in 1998 and was intended as a project car for restoration. Because he's had others to work on, it had been in storage at his shop in El Monte until about 2 years ago when it was taken along with some other cars to Mississippi, where my parents are moving to, and was stored in their warehouse. Since they could really use the money for their move & health conditions forces sale ASAP, he brought it back to CA. sometime last year when he decided to put it up for sale and it's been covered up in our driveway, while some work (which is noted in the listing) was done on it to get it up and running to sell.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: We will accept International Buyers and have shipped other cars Worldwide. Buyer is responsible for making shipping arrangements and payment. Will deliver up to 200-250 miles. from the Los Angeles/Glendale CA area for Local Buyers and will transport to the nearest shipping facility, which I believe is in Wilmington, CA, for International Buyers. For more info or to discuss transportation/delivery/pick up options, please use the eBay Ask Seller a Question option or contact HOLLEY at HOME 818-247-0340 or 818-549-1133 or CELL 818-216-7988. This great project Roadster just needs some cleaning up, paint & interior and is really in very good working & running condition.
NOTE: I do have some more photos available but, because I'm already at my limit of 24 in the listing, I can't add any more. If you would like to send me your email address I'd be happy to email them to you. Please let me know. Thanks very much for your interest. ; D

Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.
These horribly misguided front-drive design studies nearly became the Mustang
Fri, 08 Nov 2013As we eagerly await the unveiling of the all-new sixth-generation Mustang, Ford has been giving us some great information over the past few months showing what has gone into shaping its venerable pony car. As many changes as the Mustang has gone through in its 50 years, though, it appears the fourth-gen model played a decisive and pivotal role in the car's future.
As is part of Mustang lore, the front-wheel drive Ford Probe was originally developed as a next-generation Mustang in the Eighties before cooler heads prevailed. The Blue Oval has just released a handful of images showing how bad things could have been - including a full-scale clay model of a front-wheel-drive Mustang (shown above). Fortunately, the FWD Mustang plan was scrapped and Ford went to work designing a rear-wheel-drive replacement for the Fox Body Mustang, with three design studies making it far enough to become full-scale models. These include the soft "Bruce Jenner" Mustang, the over-the-top "Rambo" Mustang and the middle-ground "Arnold Schwarzenegger" Mustang, which finally became the basis for the 1994 'Stang.
By early 1991, the design language of the fourth-generation Mustang had been worked out, and the rest, they say, is history. Scroll down for the fascinating press release telling the story of the fourth-gen Mustang, and be sure to check out the gallery of horribly misguided sketches and various design studies that were all on the table in the late 1980s.
2014 Ford Transit Connect configurator fires up for the whole family
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The second-generation Ford Transit Connect is almost upon us, and to get work- and family-oriented customers ready for the new model, Ford has launched a configurator for both van and wagon versions. Both body styles will go on sale early next year with the base TC Van starting at $22,000, but customers wanting side windows and rear seats will have to pony up at least an extra $3,000 for the TC Wagon.
Ford is definitely looking to get back into the family van business with the 2014 TC Wagon offering three available trim levels, two engines and the choice between five- and seven-passenger seating (with two wheelbases). Like many recent Ford products, a fancy Titanium trim level is offered, and opting for it will cost you - this trim starts at $29,000, and we were able to spec it out with a panoramic roof, tow package and front and rear parking sensors for a little over $33,000.
Businesses looking for a small, fuel-efficient work vehicle now get more options on the TC Van like the choice of split, hinged rear doors or a liftgate (with or without glass), a long wheelbase ($1,000) and Ford's CrewChief vehicle tracking system ($925). Fully loaded, this van is still costs less than the fullsize E-Series. On both Van and Wagon, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine is a $795 option, but it is only offered on short-wheelbase models and Ford has yet to release power or fuel economy specs yet. With the standard 2.5-liter engine, the TC will get up to 21 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
