 For sale is an original Henry Ford all steel late 1931 Model A Deluxe Hi Boy Roadster on a 32 frame. I found this Colorado car in an older gentleman's garage that had been there since 1969 with the original Colorado title. I built this car from 2005-2008. I have been building hot rods and Harleys for fifty years for my own use.

Frame is from Street Rods by Michael - Pete & Jakes 4" dropped and drilled chrome axle, aluminum I rod shocks, and Pete & Jakes hairpins.  GM 11" discs brakes front. 9" ford rear from John's industries with the large drum brakes and 3.00 gears - 4 link with Alden coil overs -  Tires are Excelsior radials from Coker 550-16 front and 750-16 rear. Rims are powder coated.

Engine is a 1961 numbers correct 283 Corvette bored 010 over - original balanced steel crank - balanced rods -  10 to1 KB pistons - 1964 327 461 heads stainless valves hardened seats, poly locks - mild Competition hydraulic street cam - Aluminum Edelbrock intake with an Edelbrock 500cfm - stock chevy distributor with a pertronix ignition and coil. Custom aluminum fan shroud - Aluminum water pump - Runs 180 - 190 degrees.

Transmission is a 350 turbo with a shift kit. Remote Tranny cooler -  Modified Gennie shifter - Gennie e brake.

Seat is from Glide engineering. Looks like bench but both seats will adjust. Marine vinyl - rubber floor mat over insulation. Custom built beading  aluminum door and kick panels.

Stewart - Warner electric gauges - Lime works steering column with 14" steering wheel. Small tach mounted to steering column - aftermarket turn signal switch - original Guide headlights 682-C.

This car runs and drives great - plenty of power. I like to drive my cars, normal rock chips and normal wear. No major damage. I also have fabricated hood sides out of aluminum that I run during the winter months just to keep the operating temp up and it works well.

If this car sells I need to have it picked up by no later than 9/22/2014. Or I can store it till 10/14/2014. Thanks.

Production of Shelby GT350 is coming to an end

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

One Autoblog staffer who drove the limited-edition Shelby GT350 wrote it probably was the best Mustang he'd driven, but, at some point, the fun had to come to an end: December 31 is the last day the GT350 will be available to order.
The GT350's option list has evolved much like it did for the original 1965-67 GT350. For 2011, the 45th Anniversary edition only came in coupe form and was painted white with blue stripes, just as with the 1965 car. The 2012 GT350 was offered as a coupe or convertible, and three colors were added to the option list, just like the 1966 model. For 2013, more colors and options were added in addition to equipment and styling updates, which resulted in Wilwood instead of Baer brakes. No major changes were made for the 2014 model. From the first car in 2011, customers have been able to choose between three different configurations for their 5.0-liter V8: naturally aspirated with 440 horsepower, supercharged with 525 hp (with warranty) or supercharged with 624 hp (without warranty).
"When we unveiled this latest version of the Shelby GT350, we promised it would be built for a limited time to preserve its collectability and value," states John Luft, president of Shelby American. He may have a point, because the original GT350, which also had a limited production run, is among the most valuable muscle cars in the world.

Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.
