1931 Model "A" Roadster with rumble seat & twin fender mounted spares.  The body is a new Brookville replica made from steel, no fiberglass anywhere.  All fenders, aprons, running boards, rumble lid and aprons are new reproduction.  The only original body part is the gas tank which was vatted and coated.  There is no old metal in the car. No filler or patches.....  the chassis was stripped, blasted and painted.  Every nut and bolts was restored and/or rebuilt to like new condition.  I built this car for myself and wanted it to be completely trustworthy for touring but health issues have arisen and the car needs a new home.  The engine has a complete rebuild, new babbitt and all internal parts.  It runs perfectly.  It is all stock except for a 3:54 ring & pinion higher speed rearend ratio.  Still 6 volt with a generator.  The entire brake system was rebuilt with new parts.  It stops great. New L/B top and interior + rumble seat area.  All the seat spring are new as well.  The paint is single stage PPG.  New WWW tires and new tubes.  The wind-wings are deep cut & polished etching.  I have driven the car 240 miles and it purrs.  No problems.  It is ready for the open road.  It has a tool box in front and on the rear.   It is as solid as any you will ever find.  I have restored a lot of Model A's and won the Dallas MAFC Car of the Year Award in 2004 for a restored Cabriolet.  This car would be another strong contender in that event as well.   If you are looking for a really good car to drive, this is sure worth a close look.  I will send photos, videos and answer your questions honestly.  Check my feedback over the past 15 years.  Every buyer has said nice things and many still communicate or send Christmas cards.  Clear Title.  Make a reasonable offer.  I don't hear well so if I miss your ring I will sure call back.  903-360-7116.  

The small car is a 6 volt electric Power Wheel model that can be driven by a small child or towed with the tow-bar in parades.  The car and charger are free to the buyer if desired.  Grandkids love the small car and at parades and car shows it is the main attraction.

2015 Ford F-150 shaves 700 pounds, adds 2.7-liter EcoBoost [w/video]

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

The Ford F-150 is one of the best selling vehicles on the planet. Considering that, one can imagine that when it comes time for a redesign, there are hardly any half measures. For its lucky thirteenth generation, Ford has gone all-in on the single most important vehicle in its portfolio, redesigning it from the ground up.
The big news is the F-150's new, lightweight, Atlas-inspired body. Ninety-three percent of that new body is made from a sort of aluminum alloy not unlike what the US military uses in its M2 Bradley fighting vehicles and Humvees, and it accounts for up to 70 percent of the F-150's 700-pound weight reduction. As a side benefit, the aluminum body should prove more resistant to dents and dings. Built Ford tough, indeed.
If you're wondering where the other 30 percent of that 700-pound weight loss went, 8.5 percent (60 pounds) came from the increased use of high-strength steel (up from 23 percent to 77 percent) in its ladder-box frame. Ford claims this steel is comparable to some of the heavy duty pickups used by its competitors, with a PSI rating of 70,000.

The 11 most expensive American cars ever

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

Here's a Pro Tip for all you would-be classic car investors out there: buy Ferraris. With the Pebble Beach festivities kicking off this week, including any number high end car auctions, we thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some to the most expensive cars ever sold with the bang of a gavel. Trouble is, once you get past the splendor of everyone's favorite Italian sports car maker, that list is pretty boring.
Ferrari dominates the all-time auction sales list; seven of the top ten most expensive cars sold wear the Cavallino Rampante badge, as well as more than half of the top fifty. Sure, a nearly $30-million Mercedes-Benz W196 racecar might be the new top dog as of last year, but it's even possible that Ferrari could take that title back in Monterey this weekend. Long story short: we think a list of the most expensive American cars ever sold at auction is a lot more entertaining to read. Hell, our list has a friggin' Batmobile on it, how can it go wrong?
Follow on below for the top ten cars that are red, white, blue and a whole lot of green.

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.
