For sale is my 1916 Brass Era Model T, fresh off a great restore.

This car is a great numbers matching car with not only number matching but proof

of this in the block date as well.

Car started out in the early days as a roadster with a farmer transforming it

into a truck in the 30’s.

Story from the old gentleman I purchased it from is that in the war area they were given gas rations in the order

of 5 gallons if you had a car, 10 gallons if you were a service member and 15 gallons if you were a

Farmer and owned a truck.

This was the whole reason for purchasing the truck body from the Cabinet co. from Des Plaines Illinois.

The number of the unit on a brass tag still on the bed of the truck is number 167, a very early number as over 50,000

of these units were sold.

I purchased a brand new brass works radiator for this year and no water pump is even needed

In the warmest of summer days.

I also put a battery box under it for starting power, running the horns and street legal electric

taillights in the oil lamps. All 4 oil lamps are functional as oil lamps with just added wires and reflectors and bulbs

for street legal operation.

Car runs best on magneto as there is no starter or generator.

Car starts easy on 1 or 2 cranks cold and less than that warm.

Headlights and one of the horns run on the magneto also.

Anyway, this is a great truck and has been completely restored to the shape it was in at that time.

All metal fenders etc. and all wood stripped down, resealed and varnished.

Original Wood wheels were also taken down and sealed and varnished also.

This is a true find and would be a proud addition to any person’s collection.

I have entered this is many shows and always wins first in class and one best of show.

Trophies do not go with the truck, Sorry.

Since taking the photos I have added a drivers side rear oil lamp so both sides

are matching in the back. Both oil lamps are functional but also have light lenses inside for a brake light & can easily be removed if you so choose.

Also since pictures added a Ford Script for the back tailgate. Both are shown in the last photo.

If needed, I can deliver for $1.50 per mile in an enclosed trailer. Maximum 500 miles round trip.
I have 1 bike and about 7 or 8 other antique cars and trucks, if interested in getting more than 1, I will combine the
enclosed shipping for the same rate.
I can fit 2 cars or trucks and 1 bike into a single load, 3 max.
Call, email or text with any questions.
thx.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you

Fri, 03 May 2013

The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.

Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:
