1931 Ford Coupe.rat Rod.hot Rod.sbc.clear Title. on 2040-cars
Williams, Minnesota, United States
|
1931 Ford coupe. Body was pretty rough and has been stitched back together and is now solid. The doors open and close nicely(bear claw latches). Windows are plexi glass. The windshield frame was fabricated out of alum channel and is in place until I could find/fabricate something a little better. Floor, braces and top are all metal. 32 Ford grille shell is fiberglass. Early SBC with vintage Offenhauser 2 x 4 intake with early AFB carbs(I'm told Vette). The valve covers are real Corvette(1963). Engine has approx. 54000 on rebuild - I might still have the paperwork to verify this. 1 wire alt. Headers have muffler ends. Auto trans. 68 Plymouth 8 3/4 rear. SW gauges - speedo, oil press. & water temp. Lokar shifter. Velour bench seat. New Chrome rims/tires. Super Bell dropped axle. Disc brakes front. Reversed Corvair box. Many new parts. Could probably use about an inch longer driveshaft. Gas pedal needs adjusting to obtain full throttle. This is a nice running, fun car that needs very little to be blasting the street or maybe dragstrip. Keep in mind it is not perfect and will need tweaking here and there. I haven't had the time to work the bugs out, I've only got about 15 miles on it since finishing the build some months ago. I'm on other priorities and don't have the time to devout to this an the other items I'll be listing on Ebay, therefore the reserve is low considering the work and time that had been done so far and to other comparable cars. The title is 31 Ford and is clear in my name. Has collector plates. This is being sold as is. This is being offered at different venues and auction will be ended if sold elsewhere, unless reserve is met. Please have transportation set up as I need this out of here within 2 weeks of auction end, I need the shop space. Ask questions early in the auction - I'm on the computer randomly. Please read payment instructions and follow them after auction. Bidders with less than 10 feedback, please contact me before bidding or bid will be cancelled. On Sep-06-14 at 13:39:06 PDT, seller added the following information: Top is chopped approx. 2 1/2". Body has been channeled over frame approx. 4". Entire front end(axle, shocks, brakes, spring, perches, radius rods, tie rod, drag link and hardware) is new, just not painted.

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E, Volvo XC40 Recharge score high in IIHS tests
Thu, Apr 22 2021New electric cars continue their streak of impressive crash test results. The two latest to go through Insurance Institute for Highway Safety testing are the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E and the 2021 Volvo XC40 Recharge. The former earned a Top Safety Pick award, and the latter picked up the Top Safety Pick+ commendation. Both vehicles got the top "Good" rating in every crash test, as well as the "Superior" rating for vehicle-to-vehicle collision prevention. They deviate when it comes to headlights and vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention. Because the Volvo has headlights rated "Good" on all trims, it got that extra "+" on its Top Safety Pick award. The Ford also has high-rated headlights available, but the standard units got the second lowest rating of "Marginal." As for the vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention, the Volvo received the second-highest "Advanced" rating, while the Ford was rated "Superior." Among the electric cars IIHS has tested, the Ford and Volvo continue a streak of high scores. The organization has evaluated the Audi E-Tron in both its body styles, as well as the Tesla Model 3, both of which get the Top Safety Pick+ rating. As a result of the XC40 Recharge's test score, Volvo pointed out that it is the only automaker whose entire lineup has received a Top Safety Pick+ rating.

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]
Wed, Dec 3 2014Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
