 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.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.

Jurassic Park made a big impact on these Jeep drivers

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

For a certain cohort of young folks, Jurassic Park is a touchstone film from their childhood. Not only did it play into practically every little boy's love of dinosaurs, the movie included some great action scenes and special effects that still hold up today. In its latest video, The Aficionauto takes a look the Jurassic Park Motor Pool, a California car club with over 40 fans who created replica vehicles from the iconic film.
The club is made up of an interesting cross-section of people. Many of them were Jeep Wrangler fans that already loved off-roading and Jurassic Park, and liked the idea of bringing them together. Like any close-knit club, it ends up being about community and people coming together to share their interests. It's quite a heartwarming video. Also, be sure to stay until the end because The Aficionauto teases a future Jurassic Park-themed vehicle. Scroll down to check out the motor pool.
