1930 Ford Five-Window Coupe "All Steel" car! "KRYPTONITE!" Please give all 100+ pics a chance to load, including the video... thanks! Fresh from the pages of Deluxe Car Kulture, Rod & Custom, and Rod & Kulture magazines, is this '30 Five Window ALL STEEL Street Rod. This 1930 Ford Five-Window is called "Kryptonite" in the show world, she's virtually a brand new build. Already in magazines and has won plenty of trophies.... This is an amazing car that was built by some very talented professional builders in Texas back in 2010. With only 1,500 miles, it is like a newly built car from the 60's that been fully sorted! That era was the inspiration for this awesome show winning coupe. Let's get to the technical details of this fine coupe: The steel body has been chopped 2.5", and channeled 6" inches giving it that BITCH'N stance! It has a one of a kind, hand fabricated firewall, a full metal roof skin, a very 60's inspired dimpled and drilled visor (which is completely molded into the body), and a cool motorcycle gas cap. The Radiator shell is from a 32 Ford and it has a handmade grille insert. I still have all the door pulls if you like that looks, I didn't care for it that much. The custom Candy-apple Green & Pearl White paint with custom scallops and pin stripes are ultra-show quality and is CRAZY eye popping! The killer pinstriping is buried deep in the clear coat, go ahead - wax it up, don't worry about distorting the stripes! I know you'd agree; the results speak for themselves. The motor is a classic early 60's Buick 401 "Nail-head" torque MONSTER V-8. Some features include a Drag Star long intake manifold, SIX Stromberg '97' carbs, and Sanderson lake headers (with baffles). The matching painted engine is dressed up with Fenton Valve and Sparkplug covers. Each carb has been adorned with matching air-cleaners (very Cal Custom!). The car sounds insane and runs fantastic! It's really not that loud when cruising. An MSD and Pertronix electronic ignition set up fires the powerful Buick mill. Other items include an electric fuel pump with kill switch, and a hidden battery kill switch that aids in theft prevention. A freshly built Buick Turbo 400 3-spd automatic transmission feeds the 80's monte SS GM 10 bolt posi rear end which is running 3:08's. Noting some of the detail in this car - the bell housing is even pin striped since you can see it from the top! Nothing was overlooked in this build... The modified Ford frame features heavily striped '32 rails, a front 4 link suspension, chrome shocks and a T-Bucket Style coil spring/shock setup is out back. The wheels are classic 15x5 and 15x8 chrome-reverse with cutom cone caps. They are wrapped in classic bias ply 6.40x15 Firestone wide whites in front with 8.20x15 wide white "cheater slicks" on the rear. The front brakes are DISC with Buick drum covers and chrome backing plates, the rear are heavy duty drums, GM std issue. The interior has some very unique touches. The aluminum bomber seats with engine turned seatbacks and custom fiberglass surround makes it truly one of a kind. I get comments on them ALL THE TIME! The seat upholstery is georgous - pleated pearl white vinyl, with matching door panels, headliner, and floor/kick panels . The metal dash is filled with real nice, vintage style gauges. The shifter is a custom Lokar unit. I can just imagine how much time and money went into this one of a kind rod. This final results screams 60's show car with the today's technology - it even has LED tail lights! NOTE - THIS IS MY PERSONAL CAR - IT'S NOT A CONSIGNMENT! It's titled in MY name and has a small loan on it, so JJ Best will need to be paid before they release the title. If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not hesitate to contact us. It's what I'm here for! I encourage prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or inspectors to come and see this car in person as pictures DO NOT do this car justice!

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US
Tue, 06 Aug 2013Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.
Ken Block is at it again in Gymkhana 6
Mon, 11 Nov 2013If there's one thing we'll say about Ken Block and his latest installment in the Gymkhana family, it's that it's far more structured than previous videos, but that doesn't mean it skimps on the entertainment. Block is on a purpose-built course which was touted as "The... Ultimate... Gymkhana... Grid... Course" in last week's preview. Unlike Gymkhana 5, which took placed on closed streets in San Francisco, this course seems much more compact.
Block has an entire array of challenges to tackle in his 650-horsepower Ford Fiesta ST, and none of them look particularly easy. In fact, we'd argue that Gymkhana 6's grid course requires much more precise driving that previous titles. There are Segways, Lamborghinis and massive pieces of construction equipment that all must be dealt with.
We've got the entire 6:28 of Gymkhana madness for you down below. Scroll down for the video and then hit Comments and let us know how this installment compares to previous Block works.
