1926 Model Tt Truck Closed Cab on 2040-cars
Wilmington, North Carolina, United States
This is a 1926 Model TT Truck. It's 88 years old. It is not perfect, but very cool for parades and such. It has a removable bench seat on the bead that can comfortably seat six to eight adults. It has a factory Ford Truck Bed that has had the wood replaced and also the rails. I have had the engine rebuild by a Model T Garage in Fayetteville NC. last fall 2013. I can give you $7000.00 +/- tickets for this work for your files. It has new babbit. .040 aluminum pistons, recharged magnets, new valves and more. I can give you the full breakdown if you wish, or the mechanic's number and he can tell you everything. It also has new Kevlar bands in the transmission. The magneto will put out near 38 volts. I have just installed $975 worth of tires and tubes last Christmas before our annual Christmas Parade. There are a few things that need fixing: It needs a new gas tank and gas line which is available for less than $300. The in line fuel filter I have installed gets hot and vapor locks and the truck cuts off. When it cools down, it runs like a champ again. It's generator is not charging and needs attention, It may be the cut out, it may be the brushes need adjusting, it may need to be rebuilt. It stopped working when we jumped it with 12 volts, because the brake light was left on and run the battery down, not to smart on my part. The new leather straps that I installed to let the door windows up and down need to be trimmed and finessed so they will work a little better. Over all, this truck is in pretty good shape for its age. I don't see any more than surface rust here and there, but you be the judge. It's a very cute truck that you can be proud of. The coils are wooden and have been checked and seem to be ok. It has a new 8 volt battery. I have a Clear North Carolina Title in hand. True mileage unknown. Engine has less than 50 miles. No speedometer but required to put something. Please contact me and come and look at the TT Truck before you buy it if you wish. It's located near Wrightsville Beach on the East Coast. On May-07-14 at 04:34:57 PDT, seller added the following information: This Truck does have an older paint job and I'm not sure know how old. It looks very presentable. I don't want to leave the impression that it is in it's original Henry Ford Paint. Please ask any questions and I will get back to you. If you need any additional photos, let me know what you need. |

Jerry Seinfeld doesn't love Sarah Jessica Parker's new Country Squire in latest CiCGC
Fri, 20 Jun 2014Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has finally returned for its fourth season of combining Jerry Seinfeld, a miscellaneous celebrity and a cup of java. But rather than fondly remembering some older piece of automotive machinery, this time around, Seinfeld is utterly unable to keep his hatred of Sarah Jessica Parker's 1976 Ford LTD Country Squire from coming out to hilarious effect.
However, Parker has such a high level of infectious enthusiasm for her recently purchased Country Squire that she seems to win over Seinfeld by the end - at least a little bit. For most of their time together, the two of them drive around Manhattan and the suburbs waxing nostalgic about what things were like when these wagons were ubiquitous.
Since this is actually SJP's car, she and Seinfeld trade off driving duties, and the image above should give you some indication of Seinfeld's reaction to the Sex and the City star behind the wheel. It seems this '70s land yacht might be a little too much for her to handle in New York traffic. Regardless, she is absolutely in love with her Ford.

Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks
Sun, 25 May 2014Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.
