 1980 Shay Deluxe Model A Replica
ONLY 1,350 Actual Miles!

Harry J. Shay founded the Model A & Model T Motor Car Reproduction Corporation in the spring of 1978 , the name was changed to Shay Motors Corporation in November 1980. Ford waived design patents for its Model A so that the Shay Roadster could be built. Ford supplied the platform, Shay made the cars, and Ford, Mercury and Lincoln dealers sold them.

Harry Shay had a great deal worked out with Ford. The plan was to send at least one car to every Ford dealership across the United States. Ford got publicity and attracted customers to its showrooms and Shay got access to an extraordinary distribution network. One dealer in New Jersey even said he had people lined up in front of his dealership. Other dealers reported floor traffic of 200 to 600 people in a single day when they first placed a Shay in their showroom. A California dealer said he had not seen such response since the introduction of the Mustang almost 15 years earlier.

Feel what those individuals did in the late 1970s and early 80s with this handsome Shay Model A replica. This Shay comes with some factory options such  a rear leather trunk and trunk rack

This Car was in Storage for over 30 years and we have brought it out, dusted it off, checked it out and are offering what is perhaps the lowest mileage Shay on the Planet.

The engine is a 2.3 L Pinto four-cylinder mated with a four-speed manual transmission. The odometer currently reads 1,350 miles, This car is about as close to owning a Model A as many people can get, so don't let this opportunity pass you by. GET OUT AND DRIVE!

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.
