1930 Ford Model A Chopped 5 Window Coupe with a four-inch chopped top and a rumble seat.  All the hard work has been very nicely done.  Brand new Model A boxed frame that was made for a Model A.  It has a new nine-inch Ford Rear End with new axles less center section, but has brand new coil over shocks and a four-bar rear end.  See pictures.  This car was a running, driving Henry Ford Model A in 2006.  Then the gentleman I bought it from decided to give it some updates.  He bought the brand new frame, chopped the top, did all the metal work to the car including all new floors and fire wall.  You are welcome to come see the car before the end of the sale.  I am in Des Moines, Iowa  50321.  Just give me a call at 515-250-9293.  The body on this car is very, very nice and straight as you can see in the pictures.  The top has been filled in, the doors open and close very nice.  The top needs finish welding.  The body is bolted to the frame.  I have most of the garnish moldings including windshield and frame, but they need to be chopped down.  Very nice original seat.  You can see all this in the pictures.  This car has a brand new Super Bell Speedway four-inch dropped front suspension that has eleven-inch brakes and the I-Beam has been drilled.  The four bars in the front need extended a few inches, but this front end is brand new in 2014.  It also has a 1932 Ford metal dash.  New Vega Steering box.  Really nice tires and rims to give it that nostalgia look.  This car has been mocked up only for Chevy motor and tranny that do not go with the car.  After the car is paid in full I can possibly deliver for an agreed upon price on a weekend.  As I said before I am in Des Moines, Iowa  50321.  So please give me a call any time at 515-250-9293.  Thank you.

Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.

Ford Mustang pinball machine has supple wrist, plays by sense of smell [w/video]

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Ford didn't have anything major to show off at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, so it seems it instead opted to have some fun - it brought a row of pinball machines to the show. Yes, pinball machines.
We originally told you about the Stern Pinball Ford Mustang machine a few days ago, and as day two of the Chicago show is a bit of a slow one, we opted to head to the show floor and get some snaps of the bank of new machines. Not surprisingly, there's plenty for the Mustang fan in each of these machines, ranging frond different models, to logos to a full model.
Take a look below for our full gallery of live shots, available up top. Then head below for our original gallery of stock images, along with a video and press release on the new machines.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
