   This is a replica of a 1931 Ford Model A Phaeton. It was built in 1980 in Florida by the Replicar Company. They took over operation of the Glassic car company which built these cars for years. It is a factory built car, not a kit car.

   Power is supplied by a Ford 302 V-8 engine. It has an automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes. The four tires on the ground only have a few thousand miles on them. The two side mount spares are used. The car has an AM/FM cassette, a good heater and air conditioning. I also have side curtains for the car. It always starts for me and it runs and drives good. They didn't make very many of these, so you will get a lot of attention when you have it out.

   The paint is in pretty good condition. It has the usual chips on the fenders that you would expect. The paint on the hood has lost it's shine. I was told that it might come back with wet-sanding, but I've never tried it. It also has a few small areas on the hood where it is discolored, as if it had something dripped on it. The interior is nice except that the seams on the driver's seat are starting to come apart.

   Long distance purchases are difficult. Everything looks better in pictures. If you have any questions or would like any specific photos taken of the car, please let me know. Personal inspection is welcomed and encouraged.

Ford overlooks the Big Apple in the 2015 Mustang Convertible [w/video]

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Ford has done it again. Like in April of 1964, there is once again an all-new Mustang Convertible sitting on the observation deck of New York City's Empire State Building. This has been in the making for a little while, with the first report that Ford would recreate the sky-high publicity stunt coming out a few weeks back.
The process of getting the Mustang up there wasn't exactly easy. A Troy, MI-based company chopped up the new droptop, a necessary evil to get the Mustang on the Empire State Building's only freight elevator that runs to the 86th floor observation deck. But it was slightly more involved than just taking the car apart. The company, DST, built a mockup of the ESB's freight elevators, and then practiced its cuts on a second pre-production Mustang Convertible (measure twice, cut once).
The result of all this work are the images you see above. Yes, sitting in the crisp, morning air of midtown Manhattan, over 1,000 feet up, is this brilliant, Triple Yellow Mustang. Take a look up top for our gallery of images from today's event. You can also scroll down for videos and images of the process leading up to the ESB debut.

Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.

Watch a drone try to land in back of a moving 2015 Ford F-150 at night

Fri, Apr 3 2015

Automotive stunts don't always have to make sense; they just have to look cool. Does it really prove anything about the bed lighting in the 2015 Ford F-150 to attempt to land a drone back there while driving at night? Probably not, but Ford Canada wants to find out anyway, because the trick looks good on film. Chris Bacik is an expert at flying drones and even builds his own to use for his aerial cinematography company. As Ford Canada's very serious narrator intones, the question now is whether he can use those piloting skills to land on a moving F-150 in the dark. To make things even harder, the night of the stunt is quite windy. Even if the video demonstrates little about the truck's capabilities, it's fun to see if Bacik can do accomplish the feat.
