2008 Bi-fuel Cng Ford Focus Ses Coupe 2-door 2.0l (no Reserve) on 2040-cars
Austin, Texas, United States
|
Rare, One of a kind Natural Gas Vehicle - Sporty, Reliable and Very Economical - NO RESERVE
Equipped with EPA Certified Altech-Eco Bi-fuel CNG Conversion. The Focus operates on either gasoline or CNG (compressed natural gas) with the simple push of a button. With the lower cost of CNG at the pump and 32-35 mpg on the highway, this little beauty has an incredibly low operating cost. The EPA Certified natural gas conversion system from Altech-Eco was installed by CleanFuel Conversions at the end of 2008. We originally paid about $23,000 for the car, but the current Blue Book value on the Focus without the CNG conversion is around $6,000. The Altech-Eco conversion was a another $10,000. CleanFuel Conversions has been performing CNG conversions in Austin, Texas for over 6 years. We have delivered almost 400 conversions. This Focus was one of our company vehicles. We used it primarily as a demo vehicle and, because it is just so cheap to drive, to travel to trade shows or customer locations around the country. The system from Altech-Eco really is a clever design utilizing a machined adapter plate between the head and intake manifold instead of the drilling/taping and rubber fuel hoses found on most bi-fuel conversions. The fuel pressure regulator is mounted in the rear and only a low pressure fuel line runs past the passenger compartment to the engine. The regulator is an ITT Conoflow, one of the most reliable fuel pressure regulators on the market. The fuel injectors are Bosch. Overall, the installation is very professional and includes a 18" x 36" 8.1 GGE Lincoln Type 4 lightweight composite fuel cylinder mounted in the truck that will get over 200 miles on CNG before having to switch back to gasoline. The carbon fiber tank was new when installed and is good for another 15 years. Sure the tank takes up some trunk space, but there is still a lot of room left behind the tank. With both fuels, the car has a range of almost 600 miles. The car runs great on either fuel. Loaded With All The Extras Fun To Drive Eligible for Financial Incentives Excellent Well-Maintained Condition Warranty And best of all, CHEAP GAS Feel free to call 512-289-9799 with questions or to arrange to see or test drive the vehicle. The vehicle is currently in Austin, Texas. |

Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion
Thu, 11 Apr 2013Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.
Creations n' Chrome Top Notch Mustang is a one-of-a-kind fox
Thu, 07 Nov 2013Is there a cooler car from the 1980s and early 90s to mod than a Fox-body Ford Mustang? No, there isn't. If you disagree with us, we suggest you have a look at this 1990 Mustang Coupe, which just might change your mind. Although considering just how extensively modified this car - the Top Notch Mustang from Creations n' Chrome - is, we wonder just how much Ford is left in this old pony.
It rides on a custom race tube chassis that weighs a scant 700 pounds, while carbon-fiber bits and bobs help lower the overall curb weight to a mere 2,400 pounds. When paired with supercharged, 5.0-liter, Aluminator V8 from Ford Racing, the results are, doubtlessly, exciting. 855 horsepower at the rear wheels and 667 pound-feet of torque are available from that force-fed V8 should be just plenty for this car's intended purpose of running in standing-mile competitions.
The Top Notch Mustang is more extreme than just weight savings and a big engine, though. That 5.0-liter is essentially in what's known as a front-mid layout - where the engine is actually behind the front axle. In this case, the 5.0-liter V8 is 17 inches further back than a factory Fox-body, for better weight distribution. As a result, the cabin has been completely overhauled. An SLA front suspension, wheels from HRE, Wilwood brakes and Sparco interior items round out the extensive list of mods.
2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival
Thu, Aug 13 2015Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.
