Durango, Colorado, United States

1928 Ford Model A Closed Cab Pickup ( aka Telephone Booth) with Willy’s Jeep  4X4 drive train. I bought this as a project several years ago but have now realized I will never finish it.  The first picture is from when I bought the truck.

This truck is all original Henry Ford Steel except for the firewall and lower cowl panels which were replaced because they had been cut with a torch.  I have removed the original gas tank to make room under the dash.  There is NO rust on the body, fenders, doors, or bed.  The fenders are clean with no cracks, dents, or splits, as are the doors and pickup bed.  Running boards are rust free. There are 2 interconnected fuel tanks installed over the rear axle.

The engine is a 350 cu.in from a ’68 Camaro according to the block casting #’s. Rebuild .30 over with a mild Pro Comp Street cam,  camel hump heads  with 1.94 Intake and 1.5 inch exhaust valves, Edelbrock intake, and 4 bbl. carb. Custom exhaust manifolds.

Transmission is a rebuilt T-90 3 speed.  Transfer case is a rebuilt Dana T-18.  Rear end is rebuilt with 3.73 gears. I have the gear set to rebuild the front dif from stock Willys 5.38 to 3.73.  New drive shafts front and rear.

The pictures speak for themselves.  There are lots of new, still in the box, parts including Griffin radiator, Chrome radiator grill, wiring harness, VDO gauges, seat, Ididit tilt steering column, custom steering wheel, new power brake / clutch master cylinder set, New chrome alternator, electric fuel pump, headlight halogen inserts, new tail lights, steel floor panels,  4 brand new tires, etc. 

All old parts were bagged and labeled.  I’ve have over $20k in this project. 

Brought from California and showing a CA DMV Serial #.  I have a clear Colorado title showing this truck registered as a 1928 Ford Model  A pickup.

The reserve is well below my investment cost.  Please don’t waste my time with low ball offers.

Thanks for looking.  Happy bidding.

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.
