This auction is for a 1930 Ford Model A Deluxe Rumble Seat Coupe. Just out of lengthy storage from Florida. The prior owner is an 83 year old gentleman who was always planning on restoring the car but health issues has set him back. The car was the year of his birth and 30 years ago he purchased it and was enjoying the car. Later on the car went into the garage and was taken completely apart to do a full restoration. He is not able to continue so we aquired the vehicle and all the parts. We lightly bolted the car back together for easy transportation. I will try to give you an accurate description of what was done so far and what needs to be finished. The complete drive train was rebuilt. He painted the frame and all related parts and installed the drive line back in. A lot of new suspension parts were installed. New shocks, brakes, etc. Has 4 brand new Denman wide white wall tires with new tubes and 5 stock wire wheels pit free and 4 new hub caps. Nice solid straight body all steel. He installed new sills and a set of rear inner tubs. They need to be welded and smoothed up where they match up to the old inner wheel house. The back quarters down by the aprons need a patch panel welded in. The panels are included. There are a few other small rust areas that need attention (lower left hand rear fender, bottom of both front fenders and a couple of spots on the tail of both quarters). Very minor repair but to be expected for an 83 year old car. Here is a list of items we are including. New rechromed front and rear bumpers complete with brackets, supports and hardware. The front bench seat and the rumble seat are newly upholstered in a nice tan cloth and are wrapped in plastic bags. New headliner material, new insert material for the roof, both front kick panels, no door panels, new fender welting, wire harness, rubber seals for the glass, Ford sill plates, all hood latches, brake rods, steering column and box, exhaust system and wood blocks for body to the frame. New sheet metal includes, new under seat panel for tools, new tail pan under deck lid, new lower rear pan under deck lid, new floor pan riser for rumble seat area, new rear patch panels for lower quarters and 2 new front fender extensions that bolt to the aprons. All glass is intact but drivers door window is cracked. Also have new rear spare tire mount and misc. mechanical parts new in the bags. I have the carb and coil and a few other misc. motor parts used. I didnt see a distributor cap or wires in the boxes so there may be a few items that you will still have to purchase. Overall it is 98% complete. If you are looking for a nice Model A Coupe to restore original or a good basis for a hotrod project this is it. Car rolls easy for loading. Car is listed locally so we reserve the right to end the auction early. If car meets the reserve we will let the auction run to the end to be fair to all bidders and potential bidders.

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.
2015 Ford Mustang fuel economy ratings leaked
Thu, 21 Aug 2014Thinking about buying a new Mustang, but want to know what kind of fuel economy it'll get? Well we have our first indication as the pony-car enthusiasts over at Mustang6G.com have gotten a hold of the Monroney window stickers for a few of the new 2015 Mustang models.
Although the V8 model is not among them, we can now see how the EPA has rated those models with a half dozen pistons or less. The Mustang EcoBoost with the turbo four and a manual transmission has been rated at 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 on the highway. The V6 manual gets 17 city and 28 highway, while the V6 automatic squeezes out a bit more in the city at 19 mpg but carries the same 28 highway rating.
By way of comparison, the latest Chevy Camaro with the V6 and a stick shift gets the same 17/28 EPA rating as a similarly equipped new 'Stang, and the V6 automatic Camaro gets 18/27 (slightly behind the Ford, but if you opt for the Camaro 2LS with its V6, automatic and 2.92 rear axle ratio, you'll be looking at 19 and 30).
