A lot of newer
street rodders don't appreciate the vintage ‘29 Ford as much as their 32's but
this one is sure to give them a run for their money. It is done in such a way as
to combine the two looks into one cool machine. The major difference is you can
get this one for a fraction of the price! A lot of the street rods around
nowadays are new age fiberglass but this one is an ALL STEEL Henry Ford body.
That means it was created and rolled out of the factory 85 years ago! The fact
that it is still around and laser straight is absolutely amazing! The 1929 Ford
body is nicely mounted to the 32' Ford frame giving it some extra length for
the chrome spreader bar. The front end looks even more like a 32' with the
addition of the 32' steel grill shell. The chrome grill has a great shine along
with the Ford logo and trim. The body, frame, and grill shell are all coated in
bright yellow and is buffed out to a great shine. Pin striping by the legendary
Larry West who designed the Coors graphic on Bill Elliott’s NASCAR T-Bird. When
we say this is a nostalgic old-school hot rod we should probably explain what
we mean. It's not that this car was done in this style recently. No. This style
actually started the trend in the late 50s and early ‘60s! Being built in the
late 50's this is what people are after when they are currently building
"old school" rods. The car was later restored in 2000, refreshed in
2011 and refreshed again in 2013. Large chrome front headlights and circle
frenched purple-dot taillights. The trunk utilizes all chrome hardware
including the hinges and is louvered. In true nostalgia style the car rolls around
on American Racing Torque Thrust D wheels with white wall tires (all with fewer
than 300 miles). And 4-wheel disc brakes added last year. 1956 CHEVROLET

REAR END DISC BRAKES Engine was torn-down
and rebuilt by TDS in Covington (Travis Domini, who has built 4 motors for me,
both for street and strip. I swear by him.) replacing what needed to be
replaced. Runs GREAT! Less than 300 miles since rebuild. The interior of the
car is nicely finished out with two Black bucket seats that are very
comfortable. The dash is topped with Stewart Warner wing gauges mounted in a
nice brushed bezel. On the floorboard is mounted the Lokar shifter. An
aftermarket steering wheel is nicely mounted in place with a nice chrome horn
button. To the column a tachometer has been added and works just as it should.
All of the rubbers have been replaced on the car when it was entirely gone
through. So, what’s wrong
with it? A minor sign of wear on the left rear upholstery panel (see pic). The
speedometer is not accurate. There is a gizmo to correct that but I have never
bothered with it. Parking brake is not working. It is the drive shaft parking
brake variety. This is NOT a
show car. It is a fun, nostalgia hot rod meant to be driven and enjoyed. Cars of this age are not titled in Georgia where the car resides. It does have Texas title. I reserve the right
to end the listing prematurely since the car is for sale locally. Please do not
waste your time and mine with low-ball offers. PayPal $1,000 deposit within 2
days of a deal followed by a cashier’s check within 3 days for the remaining
amount. I will hold the car until the check has cleared. Delivery within 200
miles is negotiable. Bob 404-210-7753 |

2014 Ford F-150 Tremor adds some sport to shake things up
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Like most quakes, the 2014 Ford F-150 Tremor caught us by surprise. We weren't expecting Ford to offer up another version of its best-seller so soon before the truck's full redesign, but that's exactly what the company is doing.
While Ford calls the Tremor a "performance truck," the new pickup doesn't play on the same level as the SVT Raptor does on dirt, or even the long-gone SVT Lightning did on pavement. Think of it as a parts bin sport truck that probably does a better job looking the part than acting it. The Tremor utilizes the same twin-turbo, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 available across the F-150 lineup, producing 365 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, but matches it with a 4.10 rear axle - the shortest final drive ratio you can get in an F-150 - for the strongest possible acceleration.
The Tremor does do a decent job looking the part. Available only in short-wheelbase, regular cab configuration with your choice of two- or four-wheel drive, it struts around wearing the F-150's FX Appearance Package, flat black accents, 20-inch black wheels, HID headlights and a special exterior graphics package. The Tremor is the only regular cab F-150 with a flow-through center console, which means it also gets a floor-mounted shifter and bucket seats that are covered in black leather with red piping. Some brushed metal accents and steering wheel with red stitching round out the interior upgrades.
Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
Ford promises 12 new global performance vehicles through 2020
Thu, Dec 11 2014Ford just keeps rolling out the big announcements today. We've already told you about the next-gen Focus RS coming to the US and the upcoming Sync 3 infotainment system. And this latest one should perk up the ears of racing fans or anyone who enjoys an enthusiastic drive (basically, all Autoblog readers). The Blue Oval says it has "more than 12" new performance vehicles on the way globally through 2020. Unfortunately, the only one that the automaker confirms at the moment is the Focus RS, but recent rumors might suggest a few others. Ford reportedly has the Shelby Mustang GT350R, next-gen F-150 Raptor and a Ford GT successor all on the way, all of which could possibly debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January. The future GT might even take the company back to racing at Le Mans. Speaking of motorsports, Ford is also blending its performance vehicle and racing efforts worldwide into a unified entity by combining SVT, Team RS and Ford Racing into a new organization called Ford Performance. It's responsible not just for excelling on the track but also for developing aero improvements, electronics, powertrain and lightweight tech for the Blue Oval's vehicles. "Our new global Ford Performance team ties together racing, performance vehicles and parts. It will allow us to more quickly introduce products and accessories that meet the needs of customers around the world on-road and on the track," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development, in the company's press release. The automaker thinks this market might be booming, especially among younger buyers. For example, recent data shows Millennials buy ST models at twice the rate of the rest of Ford's cars. Scroll down to read the Blue Oval's full announcement of the new division and the plan to get excited about things to come. FORD DRIVING PERFORMANCE INNOVATION TO NEW LEVELS; MORE THAN 12 VEHICLES COMING FROM NEW GLOBAL TEAM Ford bringing more global performance vehicles to customers worldwide; more than 12 new performance vehicles through 2020 – including Focus RS – to be available globally Ford uniting regional performance engineering and racing teams as one global team under Ford Performance, delivering more new vehicles and parts, more quickly Ford will deliver more than 12 new performance vehicles for global enthusiasts through 2020, as the company announced today its new global Ford Performance team.
