1929
Ford Roadster Nostalgia Hot Rod No “replica” in
fiberglass or metal. It’s the real deal. Looks like a ’32 because of the frame
and grille (which are ’32 REAL DEAL). 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 combines the two looks into one cool
machine. The BIG difference…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. 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 buffed out to a great shine. Pin striping by the legendary Larry West who
designed the Coors graphic on Bill Elliott’s NASCAR T-Birds. 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 the 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
2013. Large chrome front headlights and circle frenched purple-dot taillights.
The trunk 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 the only modern update for safety sake…4-wheel disc brakes that
were added last year. The mechanical details” 1956 CHEVROLET

REAR END 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 with black bucket seats. 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. Oh yes, an ooogha horn. 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, envied and enjoyed. Cars of this age are not titled in
Georgia. It does have a Texas title. Bob 404-210-7753 |

Ford issues recalls for Fiesta, Fusion, E-Series, and Lincoln MKZ
Wed, Mar 25 2020Ford has issued two new safety recalls for North America. The first covers certain 2014-15 Ford Fiestas, 2014-16 Ford Fusions, and 2014-16 Lincoln MKZs with doors that might not close properly. The second pertains to 2021 Ford E-Series stripped chassis and cutaway vehicles with a wiring harness that might chaffe and expose important wiring.  Ford is recalling 268,343 Fiesta hatchbacks, Fusion sedans, and MKZ sedans across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with 248,912 of the affected vehicles located in the U.S. The recall says the "latch pawl spring-tab design" could crack in locations where the temperature gets too hot. If the tab breaks, the door might not shut. Or, worse, the door will shut temporarily and reopen once the vehicle is in motion. As a fix, Ford dealers will remove and replace the side door latches. In a separate recall, Ford is targeting 3,631 2021 E-Series stripped chassis and cutaway vehicles. These vehicles could have frame-mounted wiring harnesses that could deteriorate and break due to rubbing on the frame. If the chaffing wears down the harness, wiring for the fuel, trailer tow, and antilock braking systems could be exposed and damaged. In the worst-case scenario, the damage to the fuel pump wiring could cause the pump to stop working, which could stall the vehicle. Those with affected E-Series vehicles should bring them in to dealerships for inspection. If there is no damage, technicians will add anti-abrasion tape over the area and "ensure clearance to surrounding components." If the harness is damaged, the wiring will be spliced and fixed, then anti-abrasion tape will be added. Ford also issued a third recall, but it is specifically for the Canadian market. On 54,292 examples of 2006-10 Ford Fusions, 2006-10 Mercury Milans, and 2006-10 Lincoln MKZs, a valve inside the hydraulic control unit might stick open. According to Ford, this could result in a longer brake pedal travel, which could possibly create dangerous situations if the driver is unaware. Dealerships will inspect the control units and replace those that are defective. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]
Fri, 30 May 2014Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
