1929 Ford Model A reproduction (1980 Shay Model A). Rare C-cab Panel Van, only 2 or 3 of this model were produced by Shay. This is a replica of a 1930 Model A as far as we can tell.

2.3 liter 4 cylinders, automatic, rack & pinion steering, front disc brakes. 11,847, believed to be actual, miles. Has original front door side curtains. Dual chrome Aoogha Horns need to be restored. The drive train is that of a 1980 Ford, the frame is custom-built for Shay. The body is all fiberglass, except for the engine hood. The original canvas that covered the fiberglass roof has deteriorated from the Arizona sun. It can either be replaced or the roof can be painted the same color as the vehicle when it is repainted. The vehicle will eventually need to be repainted. One of the rear door hinges is broken but the other rear door operates correctly. The side opening panels will need new locking arms but both do open, close and latch. One of the prior owners had installed what appears to be beer keg taps on the side opening panels.
Mechanically the vehicle appears to be sound. It has a new set of tires, new battery & a new master cylinder. All other mechanical components appear to be original. The automatic transmission has a small transmission fluid leak. There are no apparent engine or radiator leaks. The original exhaust pipe will need to be replaced.
The vehicle is fully functional and is being sold “as is”. It is not in show car condition and does need some TLC.
The vehicle has a clean Missouri title and is titled as a 1930 Ford Tudor.

Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.
Cadillac ELR, Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas win Eyes on Design awards
Fri, 18 Jan 2013This year's annual Eyes on Design awards were presented at the end of press days for the Detroit Auto Show on Tuesday. Given out for the best production and concept car designs that debuted at the show, and voted on by an esteemed panel of actual car designers, this year's award for best production vehicle design went to the 2014 Cadillac ELR. The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, which was the show favorite among Autoblog editors, apparently did not impress the Eyes on Design judges enough with its all-new vent-festooned design.
The award for best concept design was actually split as a tie among the Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas concepts. Last year's winners were the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Lexus LF-LC concept.
The Eyes on Design organization also presented a new honor this year called the Catalyst Award to Bob Lutz, former Vice Chairman of General Motors. Lutz is reported to have given a defense of design in his acceptance speech, arguing that advancements in quality across the industry as a whole have made good design a key differentiator for buyers.
Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln
Wed, 23 Jul 2014Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.
