This is an all original 1927 Ford Model T. It has the original black paint which has many chips, nicks and dings, but it is original and still shines better than some new cars. It has the original interior which does have some stains and a few spots the material has worn through where the driver sits, but it is original and complete. It has the original motor which starts easily and runs great and doesn't smoke. It was rebuilt by Ford sometime in the 40's, but it is the original, numbers matching motor. It has a new wiring harness, but it also comes with the original. It has a new fan belt and a new intake gasket, but they both look aged and correct. It has all new tires and tubes including the spare and they almost no mileage on them, they are mounted on the original wood spoke wheels..It has a new Optima red top battery and an after market battery shut off for safety. It is truly an amazing piece of history, which is in amazing shape. The car spent it's entire life in Texas so it is extremely solid. It has the original wood floors which are rot free and there are no rust holes, just some surface rust. It is equipped with an extremely rare "locking steering wheel" by Seng from 1927. The wheel has the original key, which unlocks the steering wheel so you can't steer. It is a very neat accessory from when the car was new and it works perfectly today. The wheel also has a horn ring on it but the 2 wires are frayed on it causing it to not work, but it has a newer push button which operates the horn. The visor has been recovered in period correct material, but the top is all original with the exception of an old patch. The lights all work including the interior map light, the horn works as well. Everything works great. The windows roll up and down with no problems. The doors open and close without any sagging or squeaks. The car was stored away properly where it was safe and dry for around 40 year, and was only recently pulled out properly as well so nothing was damaged and everything works. 


It truly is in amazing shape and an amazing piece of history. It is hard to describe just how solid and well preserved it is. It also runs and drives as good as it did when it was new 86 years ago. I would hesitate to drive it across the country, as long as I had lots of time. 

Please ask any questions you might have or any pictures you want. The car is sold as-is, where-is and the buyer is responsible for pick-up, but I will try to accommodate in anyway I can. Please view all the pictures and you are welcome to view the car in person as well.

Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.

Ford F-150 could be affected by tornado-damaged supplier in S.C.

Wed, Apr 22 2020

The disruption caused by a tornado that severely damaged a South Carolina auto-parts plant and killed a contract security guard last week could be felt by more automakers than just Ford and affect more than just its best-selling F-Series pickup, which is due for an update. And there’s still no estimate for when operations might resume at the plant. The Detroit Free Press reports that the BorgWarner plant in Seneca, near Greenville, makes transfer cases for F-150 and Super Duty pickups, the Ford Explorer and Expedition, Transit cargo vans, and Lincoln Navigator and Aviator SUVs. ItÂ’s also a supplier for the Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra trucks. Transfer cases shift power from the transmission to the front and rear axles in four-wheel-drive vehicles. BorgWarner says it still has no update for when it might partially or fully resume operations. The tornado that ripped through the area in the western part of the state on April 13 tore the roof, walls and signage off the factory and killed a 77-year-old contract worker when the security building he was sheltering in collapsed. Only four or five others were inside the plant, which has been idled because of the coronavirus outbreak, when the tornado struck. In an SEC filing on Friday, Ford said it has sent employees to the site to help BorgWarner and assess the damage to FordÂ’s tooling. “Initial assessments indicate that the Ford tooling was not materially damaged in this incident,” Ford said in the filing. “We do not have sufficient information to estimate when the facility will be back on-line or whether or the extent to which this incident will impact our plans to resume production of four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicles.” A Fiat Chrysler spokeswoman also told the Freep the company was working with BorgWarner on recovery plans. A Toyota spokesman told Autoblog that "we are collaborating with BorgWarner to help restore production for transfer cases for Tundra assembly. We are confident that theyÂ’ll fully recover over time." Like other automakers, Ford shut down production at its U.S. plants last month as a precaution against the coronavirus pandemic. But Ford hasnÂ’t yet said when it plans to reopen its factories. FCA is targeting May 4 to resume production. Models like the F-150 and Lincoln Navigator are major sources of profit for Ford, which estimated it lost $2 billion in the first quarter.

NHTSA closes Ford F-150 EcoBoost acceleration probe

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

Typically when we report on the findings of an investigation from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it's because the government body has discovered a safety issue and prescribed a recall. In this case, however, NHTSA has closed an investigation into a reported performance deficit without ever getting to the recall stage.
The issue revolves around the Ford F-150 - specifically those equipped with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine - of which some 360,000 were built in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 model years. After receiving an initial 95 complaints, NHTSA opened an investigation last May - almost a year ago - into the reported issue of reduced engine power under hard acceleration. The agency has since received a total of 525 such complaints, and Ford itself reported receiving over 4,000.
Together, NHTSA and Ford determined that the problem resulted from cylinders misfiring, an issue itself stemming from water getting into the charge air cooler (CAC) mated to the turbochargers. In particularly humid or rainy conditions, water was found to get into the CAC, causing some of the cylinders to misfire, which in turn triggered the ECU to disable those cylinders in order to protect the catalytic converter from damage.
