This is a 1929 Ford Model A Sport Coupe. It's traditional style is what you'd expect to see in the 40's or 50's built by returning servicemen after the war with lots of imagination, skill, creativity and a need for speed, it's been upgraded with a strong 1969 Chevy 327 with a lumpy cam, TH350 automatic trans with a Lokar shifter, and a rear axle from a '57 Chevy. Chevy drivetrain in a Ford....the best of both worlds! It also has Weld Engineering finned front drum brakes, a rare and wicked cool Edelbrock X-1 6-pack intake manifold with six Ford script carbs, Cal Custom finned valve covers, '40 Ford steel wheels, split front bones, a Walker radiator, a fully boxed Model A frame, buggy rear spring, Pete & Jakes ladder bars, lakes style headers, '36 Ford dash, custom aluminum interior panels, a chopped custom made aluminum riveted (not pop-rivets, these are aircraft grade aluminum rivets), custom aluminum rear fenders, and on and on and on. Headlights are from a 30's Cadillac and have been upgraded with halogen bulbs. I guarantee that you'll NEVER see another one like it. It's always the hit of the show wherever I drive this beauty. It's finished in a teal gray 2-stage urethane paint. Make no mistake, this is a real bare knuckle HOT ROD, not a creature-comfort-laden street rod or Cadillac. It runs and drives like a hot rod should: fast and furious and all business! It has it's share of chips and rash from "normal" driving, but it looks great and gets thumbs up galore. Don't expect a Ridler award winning hot rod for what I'm asking. Glass is all good, front windshield is nice and clear, swings out like the originals did (I guess that was Henry's concept of "air conditioning", lol. Door glass is great too, windows crank up and down but a little stiff. Might need some adjustment, but I only drive this car in beautiful weather so I leave them rolled down. All in all it's a great hot rod that gathers attention everywhere it rolls. It starts easily, runs great, stops and steers great, tires have plty of life left, and it sounds great too. Uncork the lakes headers and you'll wake the dead! I keep em corked and it's much quieter, or so the neighbors say.

The car is legally in my name, no liens. NYS does not issue titles to these old cars, they issue "transferable registrations", that's what I have and will sign over to the new owner. All legit and on the up and up. I'm a no nonsense eBayer, check my feedback to reassure yourself. Payment in full and cleared by my bank before this leaves my possession. Anyway, I'm sure I've left out some stuff, so feel free to ask. Selling to make room for a new project, so no trades.

James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial

Sat, 01 Feb 2014

Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals

Sun, Mar 3 2024

EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
