1928 Ford Model A Coupe on 2040-cars
Cheraw, South Carolina, United States
Model A coupe that is an inherited vehicle. It's been in my family for roughly 40 years. I don't know much about Model As, so I'm including lots of photos. This car is sold as-is. I will try to answer questions to the best of my ability. Just click this link or cut and paste this link to photobucket to see all 39 photos. Thanks On Jul-15-14 at 18:55:43 PDT, seller added the following information: If you would like to speak to me over the phone, just send me a message and I will message my cell number. Thanks. On Jul-15-14 at 19:15:55 PDT, seller added the following information: I also forgot to mention that the cloth top has a decent sized hole on the top center. (It obviously needs replacing anyway) On Jul-16-14 at 18:58:05 PDT, seller added the following information: Forgive me for not being a car guy, but I've done some research about turning the crankshaft pulley to see if a motor is free. I tried to do it today, but its not easy to get to because of the radiator being in the way. I couldn't move it with my hand, but I also had a poor grip. I will try to get someone to put a wrench on it and find out for sure before the auction ends. Thanks! On Jul-17-14 at 15:56:44 PDT, seller added the following information: I pushed on the fan belt to tighten it and then turned the fan. Viola, the crankshaft pulley turned so I can now say that the motor is FREE. Also, the serial number on the motor is A227694 and the serial number on the title is the same. |

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US
Wed, 11 Dec 2013As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.

Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers
Fri, 15 Nov 2013One 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:
