Up for sale is a 1931 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Rat Rod Project Car. The car has a 337 cubic inch '49 Lincoln Flathead V8 hooked up to a '39 Ford 3 speed manual transmission. Connected to the transmission is the original Model A drive shaft and original 3rd member.
The car has a brand new aluminum radiator and an aluminum fuel cell.
Juice brakes have been installed with all new wheel cylinders, springs, shoes and hoses. The brake drums are used but still have plenty of life left.
It has a new Vega steering box with an Ididit tilt steering column and the steering wheel from a '49 Buick.
It has frenched tail lights from a '59 Eldorado (reproduction).
Body is in good shape with little rust.
I started creating a 'delivery sedan' type style to the car. I started building a clam shell style door on the rear of the body. I have re-enforced the inner body structure with steel. The wood is still in place with not much rot.
The chassis has been extended 11 inches in front of the firewall to accommodate the flathead V8. The frame has also had boxing plates welded to the inner frame for rigidity.
The wheels are original Ford steel rims from the 1940s. The front tires are NOS US Royal from the 1950s and are very usable.
The headlights are from a '35 Ford truck.
The car comes with a brand new Painless brand wiring harness and fuse box along with new Stewart-Warner Oil Temp and Water Temp gauges.
The car also includes an original set of front seats.
I am selling the car because I don't have the time to finish it.
The car is not currently running but has a clear California title currently registered as 'Non-Operational' A nice set of 1931 California license plates are included with the car but they are not registered to the car. To the best of my knowledge the plates are clear and not assigned to any other vehicles.
A non-refundable deposit of $500 via Pay Pal due within 24 hours of auction end. Full payment due within 7 days of auction end. Balance to be paid via Pay Pal (plus 3% Pay Pal fee) cashiers check from a national bank or Wells Fargo Bank customers may transfer funds into my Wells Fargo account.

I will consider offers. Please ask any questions before bidding.
I do not recommend this car for a first time car project. The car will require moderate mechanical and body work skills to complete.

Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5
Tue, Oct 4 2016We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.

Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]
Sat, 18 Jan 2014We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.
