1931 Ford Model A huckster,depot hack/station wagon home made body.It originally came from South Carolina-north Georgia.Engine has less than 1000 miles on complete rebuild,including re-babbit,pistons,rings,hardened seats,decked,new clutch,pressure plate etc..etc..12 volt Nu-Rex alt. negative ground,and electronic ignition,all new wiring front to rear.Steel fenders,aprons,running boards,commercial grill shell,and rear fenders.Juice brakes on new rubber,and modern shocks. This car is a driver.This is without a doubt,the nicest driving Model A I have driven.While it could use paint,it can also be driven and enjoyed the way it is,and there are so many possibilities with this setup!It would be an awesome surf wagon,or a vending truck,a depot hack,station wagon,etc...These are getting hard to find,look on Ebay,none there! And they have gone up in price like mad!I have this one priced to sell!There are a few small dings here and there,but overall the sheetmetal is very good, while the woodwork is craftsmanship quality,the float for the fuel gauge is bad, so it is not working,and there is a 1/2" tear on the passenger side of the seat (see picture) I have more pics available for serious buyers,you are encouraged to ask questions (352) 551-7492, or message me, even better,if you are local,come by and look it over. This thing is a blast to drive! I take my grandkids around the neighborhood in it, they love it!! It seldom turns over more than one time when starting it, and it runs and idles beautifully,and cranks fast,because of the 12 volt electronic ignition. The gentleman that I got it from loved it, but only parted with it because I had a 1928 all steel 1928 enclosed cab Model A, and he had been wanting one for years and years, it was nice, but it didn't run as nice as this one!And this one rides much nicer with the modern shocks,and the hydraulic brakes make all the difference in the world!Well, Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding !

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]
Mon, 08 Jul 2013It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.
Ford F-450 claims best-in-class towing, company abandons practice of removing items to boost payload number
Tue, 02 Sep 2014The ongoing heavy-duty truck battle between Ford and Ram is showing no signs of slowing down. The Blue Oval is trying to remove at least one point of contention between the two brands by testing its 2015 F-450 Super Duty using the Society of Automotive Engineers J2807 towing standard, which Ram also uses. In the new evaluation, the F-450 is rated at a max towing capacity of 31,200 pounds. That's an identical amount as under Ford's own, previous test.
"We leave no doubt with customers that the F-450 pickup truck has best-in-class towing of 31,200 pounds - whether tested using our own internal towing standards or SAE J2807," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president for Global Product Development, in the company's release.
At the same time, Ford is also changing how it calculates the F-450's payload. Instead of using its minimum curb weight as before, the brand is now using the truck's base curb weight. The revision lowers the pickup's rating to 5,300 pounds, compared to 5,450 pounds previously. The company said in its announcement that the reason for this is "aligning its payload rating practices with other manufacturers to make it easier for customers to compare vehicles." General Motors made a similar switch for its pickups in August.
Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
