AutoHunter Spotlight: 1926 Ford Model T

The Ford Model T is possibly the most important car in the history of the automobile. It not only literally introduced the idea of the assembly line for car production but also was the first time a car was built with the idea it should be affordable for the masses. In addition, it was the catalyst for the adoption of the automobile as a primary form of transportation in America, and Ford sold millions of them. Today’s AutoHunter Spotlight is one of these cars, a 1926 Ford Model T. It is being sold by a private party in Scottsdale, Arizona, with the auction ending Thursday, December 18, 2025, at 12:45 p.m. (MST).

There are some interesting and little-known facts about the Model T. One is that it was conceived and designed in a secret third-floor room at the Ford Piquette Plant in Detroit by a small team that included both Edsel Ford and Henry Ford. Also, contrary to popular belief, when it was launched the T was available in red, green and blue, though by 1914, Ford transitioned to producing Model Ts exclusively in black, which started the legend that all Model T cars were only offered in one color. An additional tidbit is that Ford employees were required to sign a contract stating they had to buy a Model T as soon as they were able to afford one.

According to the seller, this Model T is powered by a correct 177ci inline-four mated to a two-speed planetary-gear transmission. Finished in burgundy and black with a black canvas retractable top over a gray cloth interior, this vintage roadster is now offered by a private party at no reserve with a build binder and clear title.

The seller states that this T has undergone a restoration, which has been documented. Work looks to have included the body, chassis and the interior. It looks like a car that has held up well since the restoration, which used all period-correct components, and the body has a nice worn-in look to it with no serious flaws.

The interior looks excellent, with the gray cloth upholstery with a burgundy pinstripe appearing to be quite well-installed and in excellent condition. Of course, there is not a floor shifter, as it states in the listing—unless you consider the gear pedals to be shifters (which I guess they are somewhat). The lever you can see on the steering wheel is actually the throttle.

Under the hood is the correct 177ci I4 Model T monoblock engine. It has a compression ratio of only 3.98 and is fed by a single-barrel carburetor, which gives it a mighty 20 horsepower. If you take into account the very small contact patch provided by 12-inch 4.40 front and 4.50 rear tires, combined with the high center of gravity of the Model T, 20 horsepower—in my experience, having driven a few—is more than adequate, and these cars are thrilling at their top speed of about 40 mph.

One of the most interesting things about the Model T is that, more than 100 years after they were built, they still have a very strong following and a large car club community. Even more interesting is that the Model T club is primarily focused on driving events. If you want a prewar car at an affordable price that you can have a lot of fun driving—and find out what cars were like in the early days—this Model T is the perfect entry to this community.

If this 1926 Ford Model T is of interest, you still have time to add it to your Christmas list and bid on it before the big day, as the auction for this 1926 Ford Model T ends Thursday, December 18, 2025, at 12:45 p.m. (MST).

Pick of the Day: 1969 Ford F-250 Good Humor Ice Cream Truck

When you’re a kid, ice cream is an occasional treat. But once you’re an adult, you can have a coneful of cookies and cream whenever you want (although your doctor may think otherwise). If you become the next owner of our Pick of the Day, you—and your friends, family, and even your whole block—can have the delightful dessert on demand. You can find this 1969 Ford F-250 Good Humor ice cream truck listed on ClassicCars.com by a dealer in Rogers, Minnesota.

Founded in 1920 in Youngstown, Ohio, Good Humor brought its ice cream creations to neighborhoods with an initial fleet of 12 freezer trucks. Kids and adults alike knew one was coming because the driver would ring a set of bells to announce his or her impending arrival. By the 1950s, that number had grown to more than 2,000, each one following a tight schedule, stopping at the same corners at the same time each day. According to Good Humor, “By 1960, each truck carried a menu of more than 85 treats, including creative ones like Banana Split bars and apple pie on a stick.” Through the decades, Good Humor switched truck flavors, going from Ford to Chevrolet and back to Ford. If you look at this page on the Good Humor website, you’ll see a Ford truck that looks an awful lot like the 1969 F-250 profiled here. Who knows? It may be this exact vehicle.

Unfortunately, a variety of factors made Good Humor decide to focus on distributing its products through grocery stores and retire its fleet of trucks in 1978. Some of those iconic vehicles were bought by distributors while others were purchased by individuals. In a 2021 article, Motor Trend estimated that less than 100 of them had survived.

Clearly, this is one of them, albeit it did benefit from a restoration. With the exception of the front end, everything was customized for ice cream delivery. The Hackney Brothers Body Company created the refrigerated rear compartment for housing frozen treats. Of course, this truck comes equipped with bells; there’s also a functional light bar on the roof to minimize the chances of people missing this truck’s arrival. If you look at certain photos in the gallery of the ad on ClassicCars.com, you’ll notice the driver-side door has been replaced with a solid panel—if the driver needs to exit the truck to pass out Original Ice Cream on a Stick Bars or Giant King Cones, (s)he just gets off the reupholstered black vinyl seat and walks through the opening and down the steps on the passenger side.

Despite starting as a work truck (with some sweet employee perks), this F-250 has some surprising features. Although there’s not a V8 under the hood, the one-barrel 240ci inline-six is connected to an automatic transmission. A closer look shows this truck not only has power brakes, but also power steering as well. In addition, the roof can be folded open to let in a breeze or closed to keep out the elements.

Even without its refrigerated section packed with sugary delights, this 1969 Ford F-250 Good Humor ice cream truck is appealing on multiple levels. For $109,995, you can buy a cherished part of your childhood, a cool collectible, a vehicle for your business or bed-and-breakfast, or a soon-to-be-popular addition to big family get-togethers.

48-Years-Family-Owned, 350-Powered 1947 GMC 3/4-Ton Custom Panel Van

This 1947 GMC EC152 3/4-ton panel van was acquired by the seller’s father in 1977, and it was customized with two-tone paintwork and a bespoke burgundy-and-tan interior with hand-sewn, button-tufted upholstery. The truck is powered by a 350ci V8 mated to an automatic transmission, and additional features include chrome bumpers and trim, a windshield visor, 18″ wheels, front disc brakes, a sunroof, VDO gauges, woodgrain trim, a Panasonic CD stereo, and inward-facing rear bench seats. This modified Panel Truck is now offered in Washington with spare parts and a clean Oregon title.

The seller tells us her father’s favorite color was burgundy, and he applied the two-tone paintwork and flourishes to the body. Exterior features include a center-hinged hood with vented side panels and chrome lift handles as well as chrome bumpers and grille, a windshield visor, a single windshield wiper, dual side mirrors, reverse lights, and quad exhaust outlets. A Chevrolet grille has been installed.

The red and black-finished 18″ wheels are mounted with 235/40 BFGoodrich tires, and a spare is mounted to the rear. Custom-fit brake lines were replaced in 2024, per the seller, and the truck has front disc brakes.

Hand-sewn burgundy velour trims the front bucket seats, which are accented by beige piping, and color-coordinated, button-tufted upholstery covers the door panels and headliner. A wood panel is fitted on the floor, and a custom console is fitted between the front seats.

A Panasonic CD stereo is mounted over the windshield in a custom console. A sunroof and auxiliary lighting is provided for the rear passengers.

The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation set in a woodgrain panel. The five-digit odometer shows 593 miles, though true mileage is unknown.

Ambulance-style rear doors open to reveal inward-facing bench seats with custom button-tufted upholstery, and wood cabinet doors are fitted ahead of the seats on either side.

The 350ci V8 is equipped with an Edelbrock EPS intake manifold, MSD ignition, Accel super coils, and a chrome-finished air cleaner. The fuel pump and hoses were replaced in September 2025 along with the battery.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

The truck is titled as a 1947 GMC using VIN 1858.

305-Powered 1940 Plymouth Roadking 2-Door Sedan

This 1940 Plymouth Roadking two-door sedan was acquired by the current owner in 2008 and subsequently was modified with a 305ci V8 linked to a three-speed automatic transmission. Riding on 15″ steel wheels and featuring Edelbrock engine components, the black-on-black car has additionally been modified with a 12-volt electrical system, a lowered suspension, a Dodge Charger rear axle, an Oldsmobile driveshaft, and dual side-exit exhausts with glasspack mufflers. In preparation for the sale, the carburetor was rebuilt, the oil was changed, and the battery, fuel pump, and tires were replaced. The Plymouth P9 street rod is now offered on dealer consignment with recent service records and a Delaware title.

Under current ownership, the car was spray-painted black following removal of the bumpers, various pieces of trim, and the lowest grille slats. Exterior details include a split windshield, dual side mirrors, turn signals positioned in the grille openings, and aftermarket taillights. Imperfections including rust are depicted in the gallery below. The doors will not lock with the key.

Black-finished 15″ steel wheels wear polished hubcaps and trim rings. Coker Classic four-ply tires are shown installed on the car in the accompanying photo gallery, although two replacement Milestar radial tires were mounted in preparation for the sale. The suspension was lowered two inches in late 2025 by shortening the front coil springs and installing lowering blocks at the rear axle.

The stripped interior features front and rear bench seats upholstered in black vinyl, replacement door hardware, a fabric headliner, and a floor-mounted shifter.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph “Police Special” speedometer, while Autogage instrumentation below the dashboard provides readouts for water temperature, battery voltage, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows nearly 400 miles, which is said to reflect the distance accumulated under current ownership; true mileage is unknown.

The Chevrolet-sourced 305ci V8 is fitted with a 12-volt electrical system as well as Edelbrock components including an air cleaner, carburetor, intake manifold, and valve covers. In November 2025, the carburetor was rebuilt, the oil was changed, and the fuel pump and fuel filter were replaced along with the trunk-mounted battery and its hold-down bracket.

Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission, an Oldsmobile driveshaft, and a Dodge Charger rear axle. The car is further equipped with a side-exit dual exhaust system with glasspack mufflers.

The Delaware title notes “Antique” under the Use heading.

Bentley Flying Spur Sets Record Lap Time Near Arctic Circle

Even here in Arizona, which feels like the surface of the sun most of the year, winter weather is kicking in. It’s a great excuse to wear sweaters and corduroys, drink hot chocolate, and get cozy on the couch and watch Christmas movies. Instead, some dedicated employees of one of England’s prestigious automakers went out into the cold of northern Sweden and set a new “Winter Lap Record” in the Bentley Flying Spur Speed.

The Drivecenter Arena circuit in Fällfors is only 100 miles from the Arctic Circle. The 2.05-mile track was recently covered in 12 inches of ice and snow, which just so happened to be the perfect environment for Bentley‘s attempt at the record. As the company puts it, the record “was inspired by a combination of previous events from Bentley’s history—the two Ice Speed Records captured by Bentley in 2007 and 2011, and the one-hour endurance record set by a Turbo R at Millbrook Proving Ground in the UK in 1986 where 140 mph was averaged around the banked bowl.”

Although Bentley chose the thoroughly modern Flying Spur Speed, which can unleash up to 771 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque from its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8/electric motor combo, it spec’d the sedan in a retro way: just like the Turbo R in Bentley’s Heritage Collection, the Flying Spur Speed was finished in Brooklands Green with yellow pinstripes over a Linen and Cumbrian Green interior with Open Pore Walnut accents. Aside from a set of studded winter tires, it was completely stock.

By carefully and precisely wielding the Flying Spur’s power, torque-vectoring all-wheel drive, Bentley Performance Active Chassis with all-wheel steering, and limited-slip differential, Bentley’s driver was able to hit a top speed of 120 mph and lap the circuit in 2:58—the quickest time for any vehicle at the course under winter conditions. Something tells us the steering wheel and driver’s seat heaters were on the whole time.

Sassy 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T to Make a Move at Barrett-Jackson

With over 2,000 cars scheduled for the upcoming Barrett-Jackson 2026 Scottsdale Auction, it’s easy for eyes to glaze over the multitude of models. However, among the many, one car will stand out due to its hue: this 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T will cross the block during the January 17-25, 2026, auction.

Challenger R/Ts are desirable no matter what color. Introduced in the fall of 1969, the Challenger was the industry’s last pony car to appear in the market. It was available in six configurations: Challenger hardtop and convertible, Challenger R/T hardtop and convertible, Challenger SE hardtop, and Challenger R/T SE hardtop. The Challenger was the bread-and-butter version, available with the 225ci “Slant Six” up to a 330-horsepower 383. The Challenger R/T was the performance pony, a member of the Scat Pack that came standard with a 335-horse 383, with options that included two 440s and the 426 Hemi. The Challenger SE and R/T SE featured fancier trim inside and out.

In the case of this car, it was ordered with the 440 Six Pack, an engine that often rivals the Hemi in bench racing discussions, if not racing on the track. Identified with a V in the fifth character of the VIN, the Six Pack was rated at 390 horsepower and 490 ft-lbs of torque. This is an engine that sets off any vehicle in which it’s installed, but that’s not the most distinguishing feature of this vehicle—the color is. Known as “FJ6” Green Go, it is a hue that was introduced in the middle of the 1970 model year, a spring promotional color that happened to continue into the 1971 model year. Approximately 14 R/T hardtops were built in Green Go for the U.S. market (with a handful more for Canadian and export markets). While we aren’t privy to the fender tag or broadcast sheet at the moment, we do know that a 440 Six Pack Challenger R/T is no shrinking violet.

Other features to give you Dodge Fever include console-shifted TorqueFlite automatic, “V6X” black longitudinal side stripe, “V21” Performance Hood tape stripe, “W23” Styled Road Wheel, hood pins, and more. It’s one of many primo cars to choose from at the Barrett-Jackson 2026 Scottsdale Auction that will run January 17-25, 2026, at WestWorld.

Car Connections: Acura, Ford, and Jaguar

If your brain is fried after the workweek, I’ve got great news—it’s time for another installment of Car Connections! You won’t have to figure out how three words from the Random Word Generator can possibly be linked to cars in some way because I’ll do all the thinking for you.

This week’s words are prosper, occupation, and first. I have to admit that these aren’t the most exciting options, but that makes them a little more challenging, so I’ll give them a shot. Here goes!

Prosper: The first thing that comes to mind is the quote “Live long and prosper” from Mr. Spock in the original “Star Trek” TV series, which also starred William Shatner. I could just stop at Shatner’s former 2011 Porsche Panamera Turbo, but I’ll go a couple of steps further. Shatner worked with one of my favorite musicians, Ben Folds, in the short-lived group known as Fear of Pop in the late 1990s, and Folds was the producer of Shatner’s 2004 album “Has Been.” In 2014, Acura and ELS Studio Premium Audio from Panasonic sponsored Folds’ Live Performances Tour. Long story short: Acura.

Occupation: Ford! Another word for occupation is job—and as the following 1983 commercial shows, at the Ford Motor Company, “Quality is Job 1.”

First: “First is the worst . . .” Bratwurst. Bathurst. Australia. Peter Weir, who directed “The Cars That Ate Paris.” The trailer for that 1974 movie shows the flaming shell of a Jaguar 3.4 Sedan.

Barrett-Jackson Thrilled to Offer Restored, Preserved Classic American Muscle Cars

Barrett-Jackson will kick off the year with a number of coveted classic American muscle cars set to cross the block during the 2026 Scottsdale Auction, Jan. 17-25 at WestWorld of Scottsdale. From freshly restored models to rare originals, the American muscle cars that will be featured include a 1970 Plymouth ’Cuda convertible (preview) that is one of 29 Six-Barrel ‘Cuda convertibles produced in 1970, as well as a 1966 Shelby GT350 (preview), one of only 252 examples of the 1965 model year with the 1966 model facelift.

“We’ll have over 2,000 highly coveted collectible vehicles crossing the block this January, including several premium American muscle cars that have been professionally rebuilt to maintain their originality,” said Craig Jackson, chairman and CEO of Barrett-Jackson. “These muscle cars are icons of a past era that continue to have an enduring appeal to collectors worldwide. The 1970 Plymouth ’Cuda (preview), for example, is an exceptional find with its date-code-correct engine and 4-speed manual transmission.

It is finished in its factory-correct Tuxedo Black exterior over a Saddle interior and retains its original matching-numbers V8 engine with Chevrolet dealer-installed 4-speed manual transmission.

“Thirty years ago Barrett-Jackson recognized that the big-block American muscle cars of the 1960s and ’70s were going to be in demand by the next generation of collectors,” said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. “Over the years, these American machines have become the crown jewels in collections worldwide. We’re proud to continue to roll some of the very best versions across the block this January. A 1968 Shelby GT500 (preview) on our docket is a great example of a concours-standard restoration that keeps these collectible vehicles looking like they just rolled off the assembly line.”

A 1966 Shelby GT350-H (preview) on the docket is powered by a V8 engine with original drivetrain. The recipient of a concours-level restoration completed in 2025, it received a Premier Award at SAAC-50 in Sonoma, California.

Finished in Rally Red with a red vinyl interior, a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette 427 (preview) is powered by a rebuilt L71 engine paired to a 4-speed Muncie transmission.

AutoHunter Spotlight: 1950 Chevrolet 3100 4-Speed

Right now on AutoHunter, you can find this customized 1950 Chevrolet 3100, which is powered by a Chevrolet Performance 350ci V8 crate engine paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Highlights include Positraction and a QA1 four-link rear suspension with coilovers. Finished in red and white over a gray and tan leather interior, this classic pickup is now offered by the selling dealer in Oregon with a clear title.

The exterior was refinished in a combination of white for the upper part of the cab and red for the rest of the cab and the body. Features include chrome bumpers, dual mirrors, body-color running boards with integrated exhaust outlets, and blue-dot taillights. The floor of the bed is lined with wood planks and metal strips; the tailgate lowers on rubber-covered chains.

That two-tone color scheme continues down to the red 15-inch steel wheels, chrome Chevrolet hubcaps, and 235/35 (front) and 295/50 (rear) whitewall tires. Behind the set of four are manual drum brakes.

The cabin is tri-tone, featuring a bench seat covered in gray leather with tan leather inserts, and brown and gray door panels. Conveniences include a tilt steering column and a retro-look AM/FM radio with Bluetooth connectivity.

Instrumentation consists of a 120-mph speedometer and a multi-gauge that displays the fuel level, voltage, temperature, and oil pressure. The digital odometer shows 546 miles, but this vehicle is mileage-exempt, according to its title.

The original engine has been replaced with a Chevrolet Performance 350ci V8 crate engine connected to a four-barrel carburetor. The same goes for the transmission, which is now a four-speed manual gearbox.

There are more upgrades underneath, such as tubular upper and lower control arms, QA1 four-link rear suspension with coilovers, and 12-bolt rear end with Positraction.

Dressed in red and white, this 1950 Chevrolet 3100 looks ready for Christmas. If you want to give it as a gift (even if it’s to yourself), throw some green at it by placing your bid now because the auction ends on Thursday, December 18, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. (MST).

Pick of the Day: 1956 Ford Fairlane Sunliner

Just like any other keepsake, a classic car can serve as an inheritance that evokes nostalgia and memories for someone who has passed away. The Pick of the Day is one such car—a 1956 Ford Fairlane Sunliner convertible, specifically—that was owned and loved by the seller’s father for many decades. The car is listed for sale on ClassicCars.com and located in Burbank, California.

“My father, one of the founding members of the LA Roadster Club, gave me this car upon his passing,” the listing begins. “It has been in our family since the mid-60s. I am selling it so someone can enjoy the car and take care of it as it deserves.”

In marketing materials, Ford called the 1956 Fairlane the “Kissin’ Cousin of the Thunderbird.” Expanding on that idea, Ford said, “It not only has the heart-winning lines of its Thunderbird cousin, it also has the Thunderbird’s famous V8 engine. This is the standard eight in all Fairlane and station wagon Fords … at no extra cost!”

That engine, by the way, is a 292ci Y-block V8, and this Fairlane is said to run great with only about 40,000 miles on it. The Holley carburetor was rebuilt, and the battery was replaced under the seller’s ownership. Prior to that, the seller’s father logged a few other key maintenance items (some of which were done in 2011 or prior). They included replacement of the U-joints, hoses, mufflers, shock absorbers, front wheel bearings, radiator, and slave cylinder. The listing says does call out a few current flaws: the top does not go up, there is a crack in the passenger side window, and the paint shows some chips.

The seller has provided a video showing a start-up, and the car sounds healthy. The tour continues with an exterior walk-around and a look at the interior, complete with a pair of fuzzy dice hanging from the rearview mirror.  “The car is a head turner and a great cruiser,” the listing says. This Fairlane Sunliner brings a lot to the table—iconic 1950s style, open-air freedom, and the provenance of long-term single-family history.

The asking price is $39,000 or best offer, and that price includes several spare parts, if the buyer wishes to have them (engine, transmission, manifolds, and an air filter).
