Up for sale is a 1924 Ford Model T Roadster that I took as a partial trade for my harley. I am no expert on old cars but I thought this would be nice to drive around in, little did I know this is not like my 2011 Ford. The old owner told me he drove this car mostly in parades and for his grandsons. When I brought it home I put it in my garage and couldn't even figure out how to get the car back into the start position. It has a HI/LO gear, a hand brake that I guess also acts as the neutral position (hard for me to find). 6 Volt system. The car has not been on the road this whole year so I decided its time to let someone else enjoy it who has time to figure out how to drive it. Throttle is in the steering shaft as is the mechanical advance (never figured that out) Reverse is a pedal on the floor, trans brake is a pedal, not sure about the third pedal, tires are new, new wiring was put in (all by the previous owner). The model T will come with boxes of extra parts and a Brand new convertible top with correct model T nails, rear doors, extra firewall, spare tire with holder, all original wiring, all the books are included, new gaskets, spare tire cover, extra rims, luggage rack, tire irons, and much more. I have never driven the car but it turns over with good compression (when in gear you can move the car with the crank) You're more then welcome to stop over and check out the car and start it if you know how. I think the rear brakes will need adjusting or something of that sort, The hand brake is very touchy. This is not a show piece but looks great from 5 feet away. Any time I open the garage people flock to the car. I have many more pictures if you need them. I will help out with transport if you need it and I'm ok with shipping it oversees if the car is paid in full first. Thanks for looking

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected
Thu, 29 May 2014Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
