Fresh Off Restore 1916 Brass Era Model T Truck Numbers Matching Car Block Also!! on 2040-cars

Year:1916 Mileage:100
Location:

Algoma, Wisconsin, United States

Algoma, Wisconsin, United States

For sale is my 1916 Brass Era Model T, fresh off a great restore. 

This car is a great numbers matching car with not only number matching but proof

of this in the block date as well. 

Car started out in the early days as a roadster with a farmer transforming it

into a truck in the 30’s. 

Story from the old gentleman I purchased it from is that in the war area they were given gas rations in the order

of 5 gallons if you had a car, 10 gallons if you were a service member and 15 gallons if you were a

Farmer and owned a truck. 

This was the whole reason for purchasing the truck body from the Cabinet co. from Des Plaines Illinois. 

The number of the unit on a brass tag still on the bed of the truck is number 167, a very early number as over 50,000

of these units were sold. 

I purchased a brand new brass works radiator for this year and no water pump is even needed

In the warmest of summer days. 

I also put a battery box under it for starting power, running the horns and street legal electric

taillights in the oil lamps.  All 4 oil lamps are functional as oil lamps with just added wires and reflectors and bulbs

for street legal operation.

Car runs best on magneto as there is no starter or generator. 

Car starts easy on 1 or 2 cranks cold and less than that warm. 

Headlights and one of the horns run on the magneto also. 

Anyway, this is a great truck and has been completely restored to the shape it was in at that time. 

All metal fenders etc. and all wood stripped down, resealed and varnished. 

Original Wood wheels were also taken down and sealed and varnished also. 

This is a true find and would be a proud addition to any person’s collection. 

I have entered this is many shows and always wins first in class and one best of show. 

Trophies do not go with the truck, Sorry. 

Since taking the photos I have added a drivers side rear oil lamp so both sides

are matching in the back.  Both oil lamps are functional but also have light lenses inside for a brake light & can easily be removed if you so choose. 

Also since pictures added a Ford Script for the back tailgate. Both are shown in the last photo.

If needed, I can deliver for $1.50 per mile in an enclosed trailer.  Maximum 500 miles round trip. 
I have 1 bike and about 7 or 8 other antique cars and trucks, if interested in getting more than 1, I will combine the
enclosed shipping for the same rate. 
I can fit 2 cars or trucks and 1 bike into a single load, 3 max. 
Call, email or text with any questions. 
thx.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?

Tue, 26 Aug 2014



Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.

Ford Tourneo ready for duty in Connect, Courier and Custom flavors [w/videos]

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Ford was relatively quiet at the Geneva Motor Show, but it did take the opportunity to roll out its new family of Tourneo vans: the Courier, Connect, Grand Connect and Custom. As the passenger version of the Transit cargo vans, the new range of Tourneo models vary from the B-segment Courier up to the fullsize Custom. The Connect and Grand Connect are based on the redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect.
With an overall length just three inches longer than the Fiesta hatchback, the Tourneo Courier seats four to five passengers, and it offers a choice of three engines: the 1.0-liter EcoBoost or two small diesels. Like the 2014 Transit Connect was saw in Paris last year, the Tourneo Connect comes in a five-seat configuration while the Grand Connect can seat seven. Finally, the Tourneo Custom seats up to nine passengers, and it is available in two lengths up to 210 inches long putting it just six inches shorter than a standard-length E-Series van and about a foot longer than the Explorer.

Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Companies 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.
