Up for sale is my 1964 Ford Econoline E-100. This cars runs strong and regularly! The old original 160ci inline 6 is gone and has been replaced with a Ford 289 V-8 with a 2-barrel Holley carb, headers, and straight side pipes from Patriot which makes this ride not only sound great but it can also haul a 1000lbs of lumber in the back and go straight up a hill without even noticing it. I've spent a lot of time and money getting this thing to where it is. It's got a standard Ford 9" rear-end, custom billet oil and transmission pan, maltese cross peep mirrors, salt flat hub caps, and much much more. The underside and the cargo area has been completely sprayed with rubber underlayment to help protect and deaden the sound. The pipes are set up for flame throwers as well. I mounted the underbody lights but haven't hooked up the switch yet. The rear cargo area is carpeted I added a second air vent for the passengers side. Seat belts have been added. The folks before me covered the engine housing with padding and cup holders.
The cargo space in this van is actually quite impressive for its size. I've got a number of brand new finish parts and trim (all nice and shiny) from Mac's that I was waiting to put on until everything was absolutely complete. I also have a number of OEM and aftermarket goodies again that I was planning to put on that will go with the vehicle (electric window conversions, hazard lights, etc). The paint job is about 5 years old now. The body is pretty straight (no major dents) only a few dings here and there. The normal rust spots you usually find on this car are there (along the gutter rails on all corners, the bottom left and right corners of the windshield and bottom corners of the doors) . This van sounds great and always turns heads but it does still need a good deal of cosmetic work. 3-Speed Automatic. 119,000 total miles (approximately 15,000 on new engine). More Photos available upon request.

2013 Ford Explorer Sport
Thu, 04 Apr 2013When one speaks of sporty and fun-to-drive utility vehicles, few would put the Ford Explorer in the same category as the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, BMW X5 or Porsche Cayenne. Yet, with just a few reservations, I'd toss the new-for-2013 Ford Explorer Sport close to that arena for consideration.
As a recap, the sportiest of Explorers is fitted with Ford's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter Ecoboost V6, making 365 horsepower and 350 pound feet of torque. Acceleration is brisk (figure about 7 seconds to 60 miles per hour), as power goes to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. Contributing to its more athletic demeanor are larger front brakes, a sport-tuned suspension, chassis upgrades, quicker steering ratio and a more aggressive wheel/tire package. Cosmetically, the Sport is distinguished by its blacked-out lights, black trim and noticeable lack of chrome (with the exception of the door handles).
Ford recently handed me the keys to a Ruby Red Metallic Explorer Sport. Rather than mindlessly drive the big seven-passenger all-wheel drive hauler in soccer mom circles around Los Angeles, I loaded up my family and embarked on a long weekend road trip to Yosemite National Park.
Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
Ford F-150 RaptorTrax is Ken Block's ultimate snowmobile
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Even when Ken Block isn't starring in the latest Gymkhana video or tearing up Global RallyCross courses, he's finding new ways to redefine "awesome" as it applies to motorsports. For evidence of this, look no further than Block's latest Monster-badged creation, the Ford F-150 RaptorTrax.
Billed as the "world's fastest snowcat," the RaptorTrax started life as a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and then a set of Mattracks were put in place where the truck's bead-locked wheels and meaty rubber once resided. The goal was to create a truck that made it easier - and presumably more fun - for Block and his buddies to hit the slopes on their snowboards. Aside from the obvious track upgrades, this truck also received a Whipple supercharger, full roll cage, Recaro seats, an in-bed snowboard rack, a roof basket and a rear-mounted winch - you know, just in case something or someone actually manages to get this truck stuck.
The RaptorTrax will be on display later this week at the Winter X Games in Apsen, CO, but we'll have to wait until next winter for a full Block-worthy video of the truck. A full press release from Hoonigan Racing Division is posted below, and a high-res image can be found by clicking above.
