Rochester, New Hampshire, United States

1930 Ford "A" Coupe Old School 50's era Hot Rod, built in the "home of hot-roding"

Original 3 owner So. California car- before complete frame up restoration- all steel no patch panels, matching numbers.  Well documented restoration, this car was restored in the late 1990's and over $40k was invested.  This automobile has been very well cared for since the frame up restoration, has less then 1500 on the restoration.  This car took 2 years to build by Tom Lewis and his son up in Whittier CA.  No expense spared on this restoration.

Sheet metal is beautiful, no patch panels, paint is gorgeous, pictures don't do this car justice.  Over $17k was spent on the paint. 

Frame and engine numbers match.  Motor has been highly modified and was built by Vermeil's Engines of Santa Rosa CA.  Fully pressurized oil system, big oil pump, Winfield head, Riley dual port intake with Stromberg 81's, Mallory dual point ignition, 12 volt alternator, insert bearings, aluminum pistons/ rods.  Custom exhaust header that was powder coated.  40 Ford transmission with HD racing clutch, 48 Ford hydraulic brake system, 40 Ford steering box with vintage Bell steering wheel, 2 1/2" dropped front axle with tube shocks and new springs, 16" powder coated Kelsey wheels, 32 Ford gas tank, 32 Ford dash with antique Stewart-Warner gauges, Halogen headlights and taillight bulbs.

Frame, windshield, and oil pan powder coated.  Lebaron-Bonny Interior professionally installed .

Photo album documents entire restoration.  An additional binder also includes an expense log, typed notes, phone numbers and names of all different people/ business that worked on the car or where the parts were purchased.  Binder also includes many installation instruction (i.e. Mallory ignition installation instructions, fuel pressure regulator instructions, gauge instructions, paint codes, etc).  Also includes story of the builder and all the people who have owned the car since it was restored. 

This car can be seen in Rochester NH.  This car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right the end this auction at anytime.  I really don't care if I sell this car or not, will consider trade for an early flathead V8 Ford, nice restored Model A, or original Model A and cash.  It is very difficult to find such well documented automobiles that have received such a detailed restoration.  Don't miss out on your chance to own this beautiful piece of history.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014



Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).

Ford is building this sweet back-to-basics SUV in Brazil

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

We're use to forbidden fruit teasing us in Europe. Hatchbacks and diesels from Renault, Citroën, Peugeot, Skoda, SEAT and Alfa Romeo have been a regular torment that we've grown accustomed to over the years. This vehicle, though, is one piece of forbidden fruit we aren't entirely sure we can get over. We need it.
It's called the Ford Troller T4, and if you accidentally read that as either "reborn Ford Bronco" or "Americanized Land Rover Defender," we wouldn't be rushing to correct you. It's a basic, badass SUV, and is the first new vehicle to come from Troller since Ford gobbled it up in 2007. For those with longer memories, you'll recognize this vehicle from the concept that preceded it, the Ford T-R Concept. The production model remains remarkably true to the T-R, as well as past Trollers, but it's a slightly more modern look overall, with LED taillights, contrasting colors
You'll have to bear with us on the details, as we've been forced to rely on the notoriously literal Google Translate to convert the original Portuguese into English, which means some of the details were lost along the way.
