1930 Ford Roadster Hotrod (original Henry Ford Steel, Like 1932) - No Reserve on 2040-cars
|
NO RESERVE PRIVATE AUCTION 2009 Grand National Roadster Show - Suede Palace Trophy winner ('Best Rod - Ruiz Pick'). Opening night (big annual event) El Cajon, CA, Classic Car winner. Note: trophies come with car. Vintage 50 year old hotrod that began life as a 1930 coupe converted to a roadster in the late 50's / early 60's. Comes with some old pictures, articles, and trophies as well as contact information to reach the original builder's family in Kansas - some famous ownership. Comes with early NHRA badge. Many vintage parts on car. Buggy type suspension with front drop axle, rear longitudinal springs. 352 Packard V8 had around 275-315hp stock. Transmission is also Packard and works well. I have enjoyed this car very much, but have decided to put my energy into a new project. Merry Christmas! Hope the best person wins it. A local San Diego hotrod shop has done the following work: Body was taken off frame 3 weeks ago and stripped to bare metal - mostly rust-free, with only a few small areas of rot (see pictures). Note body was once a coupe but was converted 50+ years ago. Engine was also dismantled weeks ago to put in new seals, but it was discovered that there was a repaired crack in the block (352 Packard V8). The repair was made with JB weld epoxy it is believed. The crack is not in a critical location and so it could be put back together as-is (ran well before) or you could have the block welded or replaced. Hotrod shop will put the engine back together for $250 or put the whole car back together for $1500 to 2000. They will also load the car on a trailer if preferred (car is still at hotrod shop.)

Are you a new Ford Mustang SVO? [w/video]
Fri, 16 May 2014When Ford announced that its 2015 Mustang would arrive with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, three letters came to mind: SVO. While Ford hasn't said a word regarding the rebirth of a Mustang SVO model, this latest set of spy shots shows us something very, very interesting. Allow us to explain.
The Mustang prototype in these photos looks very similar to the GT500 test cars we've spotted before - same bulging hood, aggressive front fascia and air vents aft of the front wheels. What's different, however, is around back. Have a look at the exhaust, and note that instead of the GT500's usual quad pipes, two of the exhaust outlets have been capped off.
Our spies point out that these exhaust outlets could be closed for some sort of emissions testing or another engineering reason, but it's also important to note that the engine and exhaust notes of this car sound completely different from earlier GT500 prototypes. We've got a video below that compares the two.
Need for Speed movie casts Mustang in hero car role
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Dreamworks Studios, Electronic Arts and Ford Motor Company announced today that the Ford Mustang will play the lead hero car role in the upcoming Need for Speed movie, slated to hit theaters next February. Of course, the Mustang didn't audition for the role like we imagine the film's star, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame, might have. Rather, Ford and Dreamworks struck a partnership deal that meant the Mustang could skip the casting couch. The deal will also see the film's universe populated with other Ford products (gratuitously so, we're guessing), and the automaker will also help the studio promote the video-game-turned-movie next year.
The hero car in question is a special one-off Mustang created by Ford that is making its debut at the E3 video game trade show as we speak. Powered by a supercharged V8 and apparently based on the Shelby GT500, the car's been modified with a widebody kit, 22-inch wheels, larger air intakes and twin hood nostrils. Ford also provided the film's production with an F-450 truck that will be called "The Beast" in the film's story, and a second Mustang to be used during filming as a camera car.
The Mustang's movie career is really taking off, with news of its Need For Speed casting closely following last week's release of the trailer for Getaway, a movie coming out in August that stars Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez and another Shelby GT500. In addition to Aaron Paul and a modified Mustang, the Need For Speed movie also stars Michael Keaton (cop, we're guessing) and Dominic Cooper (villain, we're guessing), and is directed by Scott Waugh, who directed the Navy SEAL film Act of Valor in 2012.
Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]
Sun, 15 Jun 2014It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.
