Selling my 1956 Ford fairlane straight axle gasser. I got this car from back east. It had most the lettering and suspension on it when I got it. This is not your "show car" pretty gasser that you see at the high dollar car shows, this is the real deal.
       The front suspension is early ford style "buggie leaf" the split wishbone and new super glide spring. Speedway motors Chevy front disc brake kit. Rear suspension is coil overs with a Watts link with 61 Chevy truck ladder bars, braced for strength all connected to a rebuilt ford 9 inch, big bearing, 4:11 with full spool. Custom drive shaft with two safety hoops. New brakes in rear.
       Motor is a 1964 413 Chrysler big block with 727 transmission. The 413 is completely rebuilt. Crank turned, six pack rods, bored .030, 516 heads with bigger valves, gasket matched ports, chevy insert stem seals, Mopar purple cam solid flat tappet and matching valve springs. Adjustable roller rockers, fabricated valve covers, 8 quart oil pan, high volume oil pump, gear drive, Hand made tunnel ram intake with dual early style carter AFBs and custom air box to deliver that sinister look, mini starter. Transmission has trans go "race" shift kit with b&m Shifter, 3200 stall converter. New aluminum radiator, stays at 180 in all conditions. Motor is recessed about 8 inches, raised and leaned back with solid mounts.

      Steering box is a 1957 ford box that was moved back and lowered to make the early ford style cross steer. 3/4 inch rod was used as the column with two u joints and held in place with two heim  joints. the steering is perfect and goes down the road perfectly straight and is easy to turn. 40s chevy steering wheel was adapted to column
        Interior is tradition race style. Tach, oil pressure and water temp are the only gauges you need! Turned aluminum dash. High back bucket seats and driver seat has race harness. B&M shifter sits on top the trans tunnel and shifts into all gears perfectly. All floors are made of new metal with beads rolled in them for structure. All aluminum floor pieces are removable for easy access to transmission and rear of motor. Track legal Full roll cage. Lexan front window, made of four pieces to reduce vibration, and quarter windows all screwed in. Back window is original glass. Front clip is welded together and made to pivot forward to gain more access to the motor. Held down with hitch pins and brake hold down springs and latches at the top.
Decklid completely removable held down in same fashion as hood. Gas tank is mounted in back of trunk with filler coming up through package tray. Electric fuel pump and big fuel filter mounted off roll cage in trunk. battery with external shut off also located in trunk. Rust around body gives it that perfect patina look, but is in spots that don't jeopardize the structural integrity of the car. Louvered decklid.
       This gasser runs and drives perfectly stays cool and hauls ass. Recently took it to march meets in Bakersfield California and was one of the most popular cars there, and going to be featured in Hot Rod Deluxe magazine. I do not have a title for it but I can assist in anyway to get one I just don't have the time to sit at the dmv. The vin number is clear all that needs to be done is a vin verification and take that piece of paper to dmv. All the lights work, only the necessities, and custom switch panel made next to the driver seat to control fuel pump, ignition and lights.

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.

Recharge Wrap-up: Grimsel electric car breaks acceleration world record, electric Ford Raptor ATV debuts

Sun, Nov 16 2014

An all-electric version of the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is now available... as an ATV. Made by Caddyshack Golf Cars, it features officially licensed Ford badging borrowed from the super-macho pickup. It has a lifted chassis with leaf springs in the front and rear, hydraulic shocks and off-road tires. Powered by a 48-volt motor, it can do 0-25 mph in 2.9 seconds. Range is an estimated 30 miles - plenty to get you through 18 of the most rugged holes of golf you've ever played. Caddyshack also offers other miniature electric Fords, including a Shelby GT500, Shelby Cobra and 50th Anniversary Mustang. Read more at Green Car Reports. Lexus takes a crack at the BMW i3 in a new video from Funny or Die. In the decidedly anti-EV film, a group of guys drives to Las Vegas for a "dad-chelor party" in a Lexus CT 200h and a BMW i3. The Lexus hybrid makes it to Sin City without any problems, while the BMW's occupants need to make several lengthy stops to charge along the way, missing much of the fun. The video lampoons the inherent range limitations of the EV (the BMW group ends up driving slowly through the desert with no AC or radio to save energy), all in a well produced, if somewhat misguided, short comedy film. Perhaps they should have considered the i3 with a range extender? See the video below, or read more at Green Car Reports. Students from ETH Zurich and Lucerne University have set a new EV acceleration world record. Their "Grimsel" racing car was able to zoom from 0-100 kph (0-62.137 mph) in just 1.785 seconds in less than 30 meters (98.425 feet), crushing the previous record of 2.134 seconds. Even more impressive is that the Grimsel was built by the students themselves, as part of the Formula Student team at the Academic Motorsports Club Zurich. The car weighs just 370 pounds and provides 200 horsepower and 1,202 pound feet of torque from the four hub motors. The Grimsel uses traction control to manage torque for maximum acceleration. See the record acceleration run in the videos below or read more at Gizmag, at Electric Autosport or in the press release from ETH Zurich below. 'grimsel' breaks world record The 'grimsel' electric racing car today broke the previous world record for acceleration in electric cars. The vehicle accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.785 seconds in under 30 metres. The new record was set by students from ETH Zurich and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, who also designed and built the vehicle.
