You are looking at a 1929 model A sedan. I would call it a hotrod. But not a show car. Nor a rat rod. Has 3 inch chop. The body work is not razor sharp, I didnt do a lot of body work on it before I painted it. As I said it is nicer than a ratrod and not a show car. A great driver. As shown in one of the pictures there is starting to be some pinhole rust starting in lower cowl,looks to be this way one both sides.I didnt build this car from scatch I just painted over what the guy I got from did. Original boxed frame.Vega box. Speedway front axle kit. 10 bolt chevy,new posi and 4.11 gears.Turbo 350 trans,brand spankin new rebuilt.3500 stall. 400 chevy,balanced,forged.light weight parts. bored,the works.World Sportsman heads.roller cam and rockers. She runs goood. Think about 450 horse. A little over 7 grand in motor and trans.I have about 1500 miles in motor and tires.New SLT Aluminum wheels. The ol'girl needs a new home.Its time to start on another project.. I would drive it anywhere. Just dont have the time to drive it as much as I should.. Got any questions?? Call me at 402 589 1412, I am in north central Nebraska. I would think about trades. Plymouth- Dodge muscle cars. Or a custom of some sorts. I already have a Harley so no thanks.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.
