1930 170B Model A Ford Fordor Blind Back 2-Window Project
I have a project that originated from a barn in White Earth, North Dakota (the original owners). I picked up this Model A as the second owner and it is now registered and titled in Arizona to the VIN on the frame. I even have a restored 1930 Arizona Mohave County license plate on it, which can go with the vehicle if you want it. The 1930 Ford Model A 170B two-window blind back is actually a very rare version of the vehicle. It still has an original eyebrow fender, which is only found on 1930 models produced before February. The original VIN on the frame indicates that the engine was produced in November 1929, which is typical for the Model As, as there was usually an 8 to 10 week period between engine production and complete assembly. There are also other indicators of an early 1930 Model A, besides the eyebrow fender (which is rare in itself), as some of the original hardware is from the 1929 style (such as the door handles). Again, this was typical as they would run the existing stock out at the end of the year before they moved to using the new stocks. This vehicle was in a fire at some point in its past and there is a bullet hole in it, which you may want to keep for conversational purposes... The vehicle is complete and almost everything to restore it can be purchased new from a number of suppliers (such as MACs Antique Auto Parts). The fenders will need some work, and might need to be replaced, depending on how much effort you want to put into them. We were just going to replace them and have a friend do the metal work on the fender for the original eyebrow style. The vehicle is currently in two pieces, as we were about to begin the restoration and have just not had the time or the money to continue it. The following is a list of additional parts for the vehicle.
Call Mandy for appointment to see it or with any questions at nine28 two7nine 2one3nine We are willing to assist in loading. This item is listed in multiple venues, so it is possible that it may be sold prior to the ending of this listing. |

Ford says 70% of its models to get stop-start by 2017
Sun, 15 Dec 2013Ford is following up on a report we posted a few weeks back that the Blue Oval would be adding stop-start technology to its entire model range. Now, the Dearborn-based automaker has announced that the fuel-saving feature would be available on 70 percent of the company's range by 2017.
Ford claims the technology will improve fuel economy by around 3.5 percent, although its actual effect will vary based on how the owner drives - apparently up to a 10-percent improvement is possible for those who sit in heavy traffic (Los Angelenos, this means you). The latest recipient of the technology is the updated 2014 Ford Fiesta with the company's three-cylinder EcoBoost powerplant.
Part of the reasoning for the new addition has to do with cost. Ford claims the tech is affordable and easy to implement. "Simply put, Auto Start-Stop helps customers use less fuel, which is an important component of Ford's Blueprint for Sustainability," Ford's global powertrain vice president, Bob Fascetti, said.
Volvo to shake off Ford ties with new platforms, engines
Sat, 23 Feb 2013
It would seem Volvo is finally getting around to throwing all of Ford's things out of the apartment. Automotive News reports the Swedish automaker is preparing to unleash a range of new engines as well as a fresh platform designed entirely in house. The powerplants include an all-new four-cylinder engine set to bow before the end of this year before arriving in the US by 2014. Shortly thereafter, the world should get its first glimpse at the next-generation XC60, which will the company's first model to make use of the Volvo scalable platform architecture (SPA). US buyers can expect to see that machine on their roads by early 2015.
The next V70 and S80 will also use the SPA, though those models will carry V90 and S90 designations when they hit dealer floors. But that doesn't mean Volvo has completely weened itself off of Ford technology. The V40 will continue to ride on Ford bones until the model's next chassis can be co-developed between Volvo and Geely.
Ford workers vote to ratify new four-year UAW contract
Sat, Nov 16 2019DETROIT — The United Auto Workers union said on Friday that rank-and-file members at Ford have voted in favor of a new four-year labor contract with the No. 2 U.S. automaker. The UAW will now focus on Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), the sole remaining Detroit automaker without a new labor contract. Talks with FCA are expected to begin on Monday, a UAW spokesman said. The union said 56.3% of Ford's hourly workers voted to approve the deal, which allowed the company to avoid a strike like the one that cost its larger rival General Motors about $3 billion (GBP2.3 billion). UAW leaders said earlier this month that Ford under the deal agreed to invest more than $6 billion in its U.S. plants, and to create or retain more than 8,500 UAW jobs. The deal also includes pay raises and lump-sum payments over the life of the contract, a pathway to full-time employment for temporary employees and unchanged healthcare coverage. Workers at GM approved a deal in late October that ended a contentious 40-day U.S. strike, the longest automotive labor stoppage since 1970. Detailed terms of the Ford deal — released just a week after GM workers approved their new contract — echoed those agreed to with GM, as the union typically uses the first deal as a template for those that follow. UAW leaders managed contract negotiations with Ford and GM, including the lengthy strike, while struggling with an ongoing federal corruption probe. To date, 10 people have pleaded guilty in connection with the criminal investigation into illegal payoffs. Just last week former UAW vice president and former GM board member Joseph Ashton was charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and wire fraud. Earlier this month the UAW said that its president, Gary Jones, who had been linked to the ongoing corruption probe, was taking a leave of absence. Rory Gamble, the union's acting head, said last week he will examine every department of the union in response to the spreading federal corruption probe to prevent future misuse of members' dues.
