Ford 1928 Model A Tudor Sedan, Original Restored, Two Tone Blue, Runs Great! on 2040-cars
Jackson, Michigan, United States
This car has been owned & lovingly restored over the past 20 yrs by my brother. He is the third owner. He has driven it in the local car club trips and to shows in southern Michigan. In the past few years he has been having some sight problems and must give up driving soon. So he has decided to sell, and asked me to help with the sale. When I shot these photos he started it up and drove it around the area.
As stated, the body, fenders, wheels, engine and radiator are original. The engine which came in the car is a 1928-29. (NOTE: The mileage is unknown. I had to list something, so I listed 5500. only for the eBay form.) The running boards and slash apron are after market, as is the Spartan "Ooga" Horn, and "Flying Quail" radiator cap. The tires are new within the last 5 years. There is no surface rust. The fenders have a few small dings or dents and are painted in black primer only for now. It is very clean inside, the upholstery was redone professionally a few yrs ago in a gray tweed upholstery fabric, no stains tears or problems. The back seat was filled with some car club signage so I did not shoot a picture, but I can provide any pictures you would like, just lest me know specifically what you need to see. The buyer will need to arrange for pick up / shipping from south central Michigan. It's a fun car to drive around on weekends! |

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
