I am listing my 1933 Ford Victoria. I built it from the ground up using a kit bought by a friend when he lost interest. He said he ordered it from a place called Badass Street Rods, and it came with a very nice 3 inch chopped fiberglass body, along with an independent Mustang II front end. It has a 9 inch Ford rear with 3:36 gears, chrome coil over shocks all around, 4 link rear suspension, front disc brakes, rack and pinion manual steering, rebuilt TH350 Transmission, rebuilt 355 C.I. Chevy small block, Vortec heads, Edelbrock dual four intake with twin 500 cfm carbs, remote fill master cylinder, aluminum radiator with a pusher electric fan, 1932 Ford headlights with halogen bulbs and hidden turn signals inside, along with ceramic coated headers, extra loud gear drive timing set, and power windows.
The body has new base/clear paint in British Military Green, hand applied orange and tan pinstriping, all new glass, chrome tilt steering column, light up Ford emblem on the dash, with Dolphin gauges. There is a metal inner structure and wood in the body for strength and upholstery. I installed front and rear seats from a Ford Aerostar minivan, and they fit nicely! It has a pro wiring kit installed, but needs some finishing for all of the items to work.
The frame and all suspension parts have been powder coated to match the body, with new tires, and Cragar Street Pro wheels (15x6 and 15x10). All of the "tin" on the engine has been replaced with powder coated aluminum parts. For fun I have also added a pewter donkey hood ornament, and a nickel plated Ford script oil can (mounted in the original bracket to the passenger side cylinder head).
The car runs, drives, and sounds awesome. I have shown it in unfinished form for 2 seasons now, and it wins a lot of trophies! It just needs the wiring kit finished, door panels, headliner, and garnish moldings installed. The power windows have been tested but never wired up, but I will include the new switches, along with a remote electric door popper kit, and repro door handle kit, so the new buyer can install whichever they would like. This car has a clear title, and is titled as a 1933 Ford Victoria.
If you have any other questions, call me at: 402-304-8508, or email me. Thanks for looking!

Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...
Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job
Tue, 07 Jan 2014When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
