1921 Ford Model T Depot Hack Restoration still looks great and is ready for Parades & Rallys! Click on the arrow in the picture below to see video that
includes more photos.
Double click on the arrow below to go to full screen. When it comes to Model T’s, 99% of those produced were right
off the production line.
Everything was standard, even the color (you could have any color as
long as it was black). For those
very few Model T’s that were not production cars, most collectors will agree
that the 1% custom bodied Model T’s are the most desirable for collecting.
The early Model T town cars that were chauffeur driven are
as rare as hen’s teeth. Probably
the next rarest type of Model T would be a Depot Hack. These were bodied by many different
body builders but they all had the same purpose and that was to haul plenty of
people and luggage from the ranch or farm home into town and very often to the
train station, back then called the depot.
Today Depot Hack’s are highly desirable and sought after by
Model T collectors that want something more unusual then a touring car or a two
or four door sedan. These Depot
Hacks are also sought after by collectors who like to load up the kids and
grandkids and take them on a most unusual ride in a Model T. There are some collectors who like to
have the Model T in their garage just to be able to go out and take a look and
feel the pride of ownership. The
really good news about a Model T Depot Hack, even though it is custom bodied
and extremely rare and a lot of fun, the prices are relatively very, very cheap
in this car collector market.
The car that you see before you was purchased by a gentleman
who bought this vehicle in the early 1970s purchased it from the man who had
bought it in 1934. In the
early 1970s the car was restored and the original body was discarded and was
rebodied into this fabulous Depot Hack and used extensively during the 1970s
and the 1980s for parades and rally’s.
The Depot Hack has been very well maintained over the years and was
always stored inside. Mileage is unknown.
As you can see from the many tour badges and parade photos
it was driven all over. Note the
photo of the eight men in the Depot Hack – you can bring all your friends along
for the fun! The gentleman who
restored this vehicle took great pride in this beauty and the care it has
received shows in the very fine condition it is still in today.
Several years ago when the gentleman who restored this car
passed away, he left the car to his very young nephew. Over the years the car has been
well maintained and stored with a very good friend who has taken great care to
exercise it and keep it in great running condition. Recently he installed a fresh battery.
We at MissChiTown love the Ford green paint with the black
bumpers that show off the beauty of the wood perfectly! A vinyl top covers the wood top. The wood seats have black
cushions. It is believed that the
original 4 cylinder engine is in this Depot Hack for sale. The manual transmission is
operated by three pedals on the floor, (the care taker of this vehicle said it
was like an early type of automatic transmission). These old Model T’s are well known for their
dependability and this one still is going strong. The caretaker says this Depot Hack is stored inside except
when it taken out to be exercised to keep it in great running condition.
We love the way the tailgate provides access to transport
the passenger’s luggage but as you can see from one parade picture it has also
been utilized to transport extra passengers. There is a visor over the windshield. The caretaker says it has a crank start
but he prefers the convenience of the electric start. The electric start may have been an upgrade by the gentleman
who restored it.
The nephew who is sadly selling this vehicle hopes that the
new owner will enjoy it and have fun taking it on rally’s and will be proud to
show it off in parades as his uncle did over the years.

Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Ford profits soar as problems mount
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Ford is doing well. It can't make enough examples of its new Fusion, it can barely make enough of the aging F-150, it's getting good brand rankings, people like its turnaround story, it's selling oodles of product and its quarterly profit numbers end in the word "billion." As other high-flying examples have demonstrated over the past few years, though, big numbers can come with problems that aren't exactly small.
Automotive News has published a good "nutshell" report of Ford's progress and problems. The Dearborn automaker's optimistic "general label rule" determination of gas mileage for the C-Max Hybrid has led to lawsuits, hybrid software updates, a downward revision of C-Max fuel economy and millions in rebates. AN notes the C-Max was the "worst-scoring model in this year's J.D. Power Initial Quality Study," but Ford will probably be happy that it managed not to be mentioned further in the study's results after last year's mediocre showing. Its MyTouch and SYNC systems, the bugbears sabotaging Ford's J.D. Power results, have also led to lawsuits, software updates, more software updates and a center console rethink. On top of that, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the 2013 Ford Escape that Ford called a "hero" was soon catching fire for three different reasons. And let's not even get into the troubled launch of the Lincoln MKZ.
The Automotive News piece notes that industry observers have been surprised at Ford's stumbles because everything has been looking so good. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of those billions in profits - the company is doing plenty of things, plural, right. Ford says it is tackling its problems, hiring engineers and instituting new quality control processes as part of its effort to find solutions. The test will be to see if in a year from now we begin the discussion of these issues with "Remember when Ford...", or "Problems continue at The Blue Oval."
Ward's reveals annual 10 Best Engines list for 2013
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Ward's Auto has released its annual 10 Best Engines award winners. The 2013 list covers the full width and breadth of the internal combustion spectrum, from a spate of efficient four-cylinders to the most powerful production V8 on the planet. As always, the entries must be available in a production vehicle in the first quarter of 2013 with an MSRP of less than $55,000. The supercharged 3.0-liter V6 from the Audi S5 held on for the fourth consecutive year, and BMW earned two spots on the list with its turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder and turbo 3.0-liter inline-six.
Ford pulled in two awards for its 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder and and the supercharged 5.8-liter V8 from the Shelby GT500. Honda matched BMW and Ford with two wins of its own. Wards awarded the 2.4-liter four-cylinder from the Honda Accord Sport as well as the 3.5-liter V6 from the Honda Accord. Chrysler, General Motors and Subaru each garnered a spot on the list as well for the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500, the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the Cadillac ATS and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder the Subaru BRZ, respectively. You can read the full press release below for more information.
