Heres a chance to get you butt into the seat of a pretty bad ass and interesting head turning hot rod, my freind Dylan of the band "Reckless Ones" owns this car and built it years ago, he has had the car for almost 8 years, and has decided its finally time to part with the car, the car had been sitting for a couple years while the band toured and he decided he just couldnt give it the time and love this car needs. The car was built to resemble a 50s altered drag sedan, its a 29 ford model A tudor, it has been chopped 6 inches, channeled about 6. its is on a stock but modified (z'd and boxed) frame, the front end consists of a 33-36 ford axle with 40 ford wishbones, and the axle was modified to accept 1954 chevy spindles and brakes, also on the front are 49-53 chevy rims with coker 560-15 tires. the rear suspension consists of a 66 olds cutlass 8.2 rear end and trailing arm type suspension with coil springs and tube shocks. the transmission is a th350 that has a stall convert and shift kit. now the best part of the whole car, the motor, its a rebiult 283 with forged pistons and a comp cams camshaft, later model 76 cc heas to lower the compression to a tollerable level for the blower, the heads had hardened seats and bronze liners installed also, the motor was bored and competely rebuilt, grank ground, new oil pump timing chain lifters bearings rings, etc etc. the intake is a offy intake modified to accept a 6-71 blower, the blower had been rebuitlt for the street. to top is all off is a vintage and rare wieand 8x2 blower top with 8 holley 94 carbs, the car is running only 4 of the 8 carbs to alleviate some of the trouble! the car was built about 10 years ago and all mechanical asspects were new, kingpins, tie rod ends, brake lines, wheel cylinders, master cylinder etc etc, when origianlly built it had a stock runner 283 but that motor was worn out so the new motor was built 4 or so years ago and doesnt have a huge amount of miles on it. the radiator is located at the rear of this car and is a 70s gm 3 car radiator. it had two nice large electric fans also. im sure im missing some stuff.
now i will try and describe some of the issues the car has...... it needs a higher stall converter, it has a 2000 ish stall and could use a 2700-3000 ish stall to make the car much more driveable. also, it has 4 carbs, with the 4 carbs it can be finicky, the car was built when Dylan was 20 so he learned alot on the car and it might not have the best welds but will hold together, a month after he finished it he took it on a 800 mile round trip and had very little problems with it. and has never had to do any major work on it to keep it on the road. after the 2 year slumber he went out charged the battery and it started up and drive it 20 miles to my house, we spend a day on it tidying some stuff up and going over the carbs to get it back up to good running condition, these things take some work and some love all the time but thats the cost of having such a different and special the car, care has to be taken with the cooling system to make sure there are no air pockets, he has never had any problems with it overheating except when there was an air pocket.
this is an old car and drives like one, i am 6-2 and dylan a little shorter, he fits ok, im not very confortable in the car, but it is what it is.
one more thing, the car is title and registered as a 29 dodge, at the time he bought he car it was a junkyard body and hadnt had a title nor vin code for many years, he had planned to find a ford title for it but never had the time. if the car were to go overseas we could looking into finding a ford title for it but at the cost of the buyer.
also the shipping cost and arrangments are all the buyers responsibility, i will be here and help with the loading etc etc but thats it.
the car could be kept here for a few weeks or so any more and we would have to make arrangments.
when purchasing this car a $500 paypal deposit will have to be made with in 48 hours of purchase then we will arrange the rest after that.
thanks

Ford overlooks the Big Apple in the 2015 Mustang Convertible [w/video]
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford has done it again. Like in April of 1964, there is once again an all-new Mustang Convertible sitting on the observation deck of New York City's Empire State Building. This has been in the making for a little while, with the first report that Ford would recreate the sky-high publicity stunt coming out a few weeks back.
The process of getting the Mustang up there wasn't exactly easy. A Troy, MI-based company chopped up the new droptop, a necessary evil to get the Mustang on the Empire State Building's only freight elevator that runs to the 86th floor observation deck. But it was slightly more involved than just taking the car apart. The company, DST, built a mockup of the ESB's freight elevators, and then practiced its cuts on a second pre-production Mustang Convertible (measure twice, cut once).
The result of all this work are the images you see above. Yes, sitting in the crisp, morning air of midtown Manhattan, over 1,000 feet up, is this brilliant, Triple Yellow Mustang. Take a look up top for our gallery of images from today's event. You can also scroll down for videos and images of the process leading up to the ESB debut.

Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
