1930 FORD MODEL A ROADSTER: All original stock, steel, straight body & frame in very good restorable condition. Clean title for Sale by Owner. NO dents, NO damage. Small exterior spot of rust (See Photo) on bottom of outer passenger-side door, otherwise, no other rust that I can see. This roadster has the original stock motor and 3 speed manual transmission. The tires & spoked rims are in good condition though it does not have the 5th (spare) 15" wheel. It has all new wiring, headlights, amp & fuel gauges, new working alternator, which has been swapped to 12V, and battery. Wishbones & rear frame are all good and there are NO weldings. It has recently been completely lubed and is in good working & running condition. Paint & interior are original. Interior is pretty much shot, although the floor board has been replaced, and only really needs paint & interior. Assembly for convertable top may not be correct for this car. It is currently not connected to the front window frame, which is normally put down to better accomodate the car cover, and is how it came when we bought it from the previous owner.
SOME HISTORY ON THE CAR: My dad bought it from a private party in El Monte, CA in 1998 and was intended as a project car for restoration. Because he's had others to work on, it had been in storage at his shop in El Monte until about 2 years ago when it was taken along with some other cars to Mississippi, where my parents are moving to, and was stored in their warehouse. Since they could really use the money for their move & health conditions forces sale ASAP, he brought it back to CA. sometime last year when he decided to put it up for sale and it's been covered up in our driveway, while some work (which is noted in the listing) was done on it to get it up and running to sell.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: We will accept International Buyers and have shipped other cars Worldwide. Buyer is responsible for making shipping arrangements and payment. Will deliver up to 200-250 miles. from the Los Angeles/Glendale CA area for Local Buyers and will transport to the nearest shipping facility, which I believe is in Wilmington, CA, for International Buyers. For more info or to discuss transportation/delivery/pick up options, please use the eBay Ask Seller a Question option or contact HOLLEY at HOME 818-247-0340 or 818-549-1133 or CELL 818-216-7988. This great project Roadster just needs some cleaning up, paint & interior and is really in very good working & running condition.
NOTE: I do have some more photos available but, because I'm already at my limit of 24 in the listing, I can't add any more. If you would like to send me your email address I'd be happy to email them to you. Please let me know. Thanks very much for your interest. ; D

Ford Escort returns... as a concept
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Ford is kickin' it old school at the Shanghai Motor Show for 2013 with a new Escort Concept - "a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design" as we said in our initial preview of the small C-segment sedan. Or, as Ford puts it, "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Potato, potahto...
It's an interesting amalgam of design notes with Ford's recent and stylish hexagonal grille up front, flanked by some pretty busy LED light clusters and chrome-trimmed air intakes at the lower extremities of the fascia, but the Escort Concept is not altogether unattractive. Besides its external appearance, we really don't have much information to report - Ford has not yet hinted at what may be powering this little machine, but we'd expect something with four cylinders and less that 2.0 liters of displacement sending a modest number of horses to the front tires.
It probably goes without saying, but we don't expect to see this Escort make its way to the United States, since we already have the Focus and the Fiesta battling it out in the econobox segment. That said, it's very likely to spawn a production model that will roll out here in China and in other developing market where multiple C-segment entries are becoming increasingly common. Check out our high-res image gallery of live images above, and let us know what you think of the car's styling, then scroll down below for the official press release.
US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction
Wed, 07 Aug 2013For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
