What a great hot rod! I bought this 1931 Ford Model A Pickup truck about 3 years ago. And just have not driven it like I had planned so I’m selling it I purchased it out of Texas. This is not a camouflaged flat black hunk of junk rusty turd rat rod that was thrown together!!! This is a true hot rod stunner.

Although I didn’t do the work to it, it’s a newer build with less than 100 miles since the build was finished. The truck has a nice small block Chevy V8 and an automatic transmission, (looks like a turbo 350 to me, but not sure.) Lots of money spent on chrome. The frame has been boxed and channeled so it can handle the power of the Chevy engine. There’s no question this was a frame up restoration. It has Mustang II front suspension, custom built 4 link rear suspension, Front disc brakes and rear drums. It has new wheel Vintiques painted rally wheels with chrome centers and beauty rings. 15-10s in the rear and 14-7s in the front. The console and interior have been fabricated out of good ol all American steel, as opposed to glass. Lots and lots of hours and dollars have obviously been put into this build. If you have ever tried to build one of these things, you know how much work and $$$$$$$ it takes! (kinda like building a barbecue…don’t plan to build and eat on Father’s day!!) The truck is about 90% steel, with the front fenders being fiberglass. The truck has power brakes with the master cylinder and brake booster being under the floor (clean firewall!!!!). The wiring is all new with modern electronics, 12 volt alternator, and newer style fuse box.

The whole interior (dash, seats, carpet, and door panels), wheels, and tires are like new. The bed is gorgeous Oak with red metal accents and a custom wood box that houses the gas tank. With flat black paint with custom hand pin striping in cream and red, this truck pops. The pinstripes compliment the red interior nicely. A Tan soft top is included in this auction. I personally think it looks way cooler without it…and way more fun to drive. It is very easy for one person to take it on and off. Of course, no hot rod is complete without an “Oogah” horn. It’s stamped with a Ford Body number of A4700734. I know there’s a way to decode these but not sure how. (not my field of expertise)

There aren’t too many of these trucks around, and this one is a real head turner. Instead of wasting your summer on trying to build a hot rod, pick this up just in time for the show season!! The newer engine and transmission mean that it has a top speed over 46 mph… ha ha! (sorry flat head 4 cylinder) and it’s a pure joy to drive. Please don’t plan on flying in and driving to Maryland…the truck might make it but you won’t! These always need “tweaking” so plan to get it and adjust to your liking. I have driven this truck less than 20 miles in three years…hence I’m selling it. I have way too many hot rods and projects. The only things I have noticed, it may need to be serviced,(all fluids properly checked, as it has been sitting for a while) and I never have liked the shifter, I like to put Lokar shifters in all my hot rods. Texas clean title reads 1931 Ford PK. Don’t let this get away!!!!

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
