1956 Ford Fairlane Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed
Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads. It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles. The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo. The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch. The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe. Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator. There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding. Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should. This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!
The body & paint are in very good condition! The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago. The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up. There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE! The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition. The tires have about 300 miles on them. The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition. The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.
Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb. The four speed works great. The engine runs very strong and fast. No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator. Steering is straight and solid. The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back. All fluids have been changed and are fresh.
In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor? Never! Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time. Serious bidders only!

2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
Driving Notes
Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?
Sat, 28 Sep 2013Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.
Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
