"El Lay Mae" 

"Moldy Marvin's"  T&A

This old girl has some history and a story to tell.. Currently Registered in the State of California (on a non op)

Back in 2001 I found El Lay Mae at the  L.A. Roadster Show, She was sitting all by herself in a corner at the swap meet.

 

I got her from dry lakes king  Joe Moreno

 

 

Here is a snap of her once I got her home.r once I got her home.

 

 

This is what she looked like after I had taken off all of the stickers and cleaned her up real good.

That there is the infamous John Parker cuttin' it up with the camera... The guy in the hat is the well known auto artist Kent Bash who included  El Lay Mae and I in one of his paintings.

This painting has been published in several magazine articles about Kent.

So What the heck is she anyway ?  Well she's got 1928 Rails, Truck Bed and 4 banger Mill... The Fiberglas 23 T bucket  was put on her sometime in the early 60's cuz it's all hand laid ... the side pipes are active and serve two purposes (1) to  make a bunch of noise and (2) to serve as nerf bars and extra support for that old t bucket...... The Brakes are Mechanical and she tops out between 45 and 50 MPH...

 

 

In 2002 she won her first award at the Jewel City Kiwanis Car Show

The Award is for First Place Special Interest.

All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae

 

2002 was also the first year that I started Racing El Lay Mae in the Antique Nationals .

Me and a Buddy of Mine Flintstone had a running bet of $ 1.00 every year when we raced side by side.

His car was very much like El Lay Mae and he called his car Ebay Elly

Flintstone Beat me every year that is until 2004.

 

All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae

2004 EL Lay Mae and I in the winners circle Antique Nationals.

 

 

She was the slowest Car on the track at 25.5 seconds. In our last eliminations we went up against a beautiful 14 second board track racer worth about $ 40,000.0, El Lay Mae was so consistent that day and  we took Jim Macnair Award 1st Place in the 4 Banger Class!

 

I Love Bracket Racing!

In the summer of 2004 we shot this Desert Drag Race Segment. You can watch the segment about 5 minutes into the movie. 

EL Lay Mae and Flintston's Ebay Elly.

 

El Lay Mae played the part of "Old Timer" (Voice by Alex Xydias) which was the first car in the movie to be interviewed.

The Movie Tales of the Ratfink took 6 years to produce, I worked on the film as a consultant to Ron Mann.

El Lay Mae Today

Back in 2007 I swapped out El Lay Mae's mill with a 1930 4 banger because her original mill main seal went along with the babbit.
  
The 1930 Mill still runs but it too now needs Babbit too so I haven't driven her for awhile now.

EL Lay Mae's Original Mill Comes with the Sale

I recently acquired this 1929 Mill with a B performance police head.

This Mill comes with the Sale also.

 

I started Cleaning it up because it is in pretty good condition.

The Babbit is in great shape.

The concept was to take apart this most recent Mill tear it down and rebuild El Lay Mae's original Mill with the parts.
  

 

Other Fotos of El Lay Mae
Even though El Lay Mae might need a little TLC today, she has been very good to me for many years now. She is a keeper for sure and as much as I would like to hang on to her I really need to sell her cuz I need the $$$!

I'm really hoping that her new owner will feel the same way and treat her good for many more years of enjoyment!

 

 

El Lay Mae includes, all of her Awards and 2 additional 4 banger donor engines pictured above along with her tow bar and Truck Bed Side Panels.

El Lay Mae is truly part of California's Gold!

Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.

Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron

Thu, Feb 23 2017

Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.

Ford rakes in record $2.5b profit during Q1 of 2016

Thu, Apr 28 2016

Fears that the auto industry is due for a downturn may be fading. Ford posted record profits in the first quarter of 2016, the company announced Thursday. Chief financial officer Bob Shanks said Ford enjoyed its best quarterly performance in history, generating operating profits of $3.8 billion and a record profit margin of 9.8 percent. Overall, the company's $2.5 billion profit in the quarter more than doubled from the 2015 quarterly results. "The first quarter was an absolutely terrific start to the year, an all-time record for the company, with very strong performance across the business," said chief executive officer Mark Fields. "We're excited about our future and confident in our ability to deliver long-term growth and profitability as we expand our business model to be both an auto and a mobility company." During the quarter, Ford announced the creation of Ford Smart Mobility, a new subsidiary that would vet future mobility projects in the realm of car-sharing, fractional ownership and autonomous deployment. The company also kicked off a billion-dollar makeover of its Dearborn, Michigan campus and headquarters. The company's after-tax earnings of $0.68 per share trumped Wall Street's expectations, and were significantly up from $0.39 per share a year ago. The results were buoyed by the company's fourth consecutive quarter of growth in Europe, which comes after a long period of stagnant sales. Ford's earnings results come amid reports that April car sales are on pace to jump 4 percent year over year, which would make it the best-selling April in history. Kelley Blue Book projects that car sales will reach 1.51 million this month, placing the industry on track for 17.5 million vehicles sold in 2016. Even as SUV and crossover sales drive the market, analysts say Nissan and Honda are positioned to benefit from renewed interest in mid-size cars. "Following a disappointing March, we expect sales to get back on track in April with SAAR in the mid-17 million range," said Tim Fleming, analyst for Kelley Blue Book. "Increased fleet sales and rising incentive spending among automakers remain the factors to watch, but the retail demand appears to be holding steady, signaling the industry's strong run isn't over quite yet."
