Up for auction is a very solid running, driving Model A Coupe fresh from sunny and dry California and ready for any purpose you might want it for.

I bought this car from a fellow who bought it in Bellflower, CA in 1963 and who has owned it ever since. Two years ago he moved to Kansas City, MO to be closer to his daughter and brought the car along and put it in a mini-storage complex. He has reached the point now where he is going to "officially" retire in Arizona and decided to sell his trusty old coupe.

In my opinion the car looks just as it should. It is pretty much all original with a real nice non-original interior that looks to have been installed long ago, but still is in nice shape.

It fires up, runs, steers, and brakes as it should. It could use new tires, but they are fine for a town cruiser. It has after market brake drum cooling fins which were a pretty cool oil accessory from back in the day.

Going over the car with a magnet and visual observation the only rust I could find was in the very front of the reveal on the passenger door, and a bit on the lower front cowl. (see pictures) The floor pans, trunk pans and frame are excellent.

It looks to have had all new side glass installed at some point, but the windshield looks original and has some fogging along the bottom.

The main body portion is pretty nice and straight with a few bumps and bruises but all and all pretty nice.

The fender for the most part look presentable but have some repairs in the beads. They are totally workable.

The radiator and grille surround are nice, along with the headlights which have sealed beam conversions.

I have the original "pink slip" title from California in hand.

That's about all I can think of. If you think of anything else I can be reached at 507-456-2957.

If you are looking for a nice, honest, solid Model A here you go. Good Luck Bidding!

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:

Surprise! More Ford and Lincoln cars found with marijuana

Thu, Jul 27 2017

Ford is starting to have a serious problem on its hands. Today, ABC 7 in Detroit reported that another batch of Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars were found packed with 227 pounds of marijuana. This is a little over a week after Fords in Ohio were found stuffed with marijuana and only about two months after Fords in Minnesota were found full of weed. All of the cars traveled on train from Mexico to their destination. All in, several thousand pounds and several million dollars worth of marijuana has been discovered. According to the report, Immigration and Customs Enforcement found the cars at the Ford Rail Distribution Facility in Woodhaven, Michigan, just south of Ford's world headquarters in Dearborn. ICE became involved after a Ford employee reported the cars to Woodhaven police. It's unclear when and where the cars were packed with marijuana. With the cars in Minnesota, it's believed that the weed was added after leaving the factory but before being loaded on the train. Spare tires were removed and the space was used to smuggle the marijuana. Related Video:
