Intro
All humans have the same dream of the urge for complete freedom without boundaries. The wind in our hair, the rush of speed, and the exhilaration of G-forces pressing on our bodies from a Harley to a convertible race car. The need to satisfy these most basic human instincts began to blossom with the invention of the modern automobile. We all have the need to fly without leaving the ground! This car will make this happen for you.
The 1932 Ford continues to have a huge impact on the automotive world – not least when it comes to muscle cars. When we think of a 1932 Ford Roadster, we think of a beautiful show piece that can be driven on the street, or at Bonneville, but as a bonus this car was build to be driven either way.
This spicy little hot rod masterpiece started with a 1932 ford roadster body and it’s based on the distinctive lines of a salt flat race car currently under construction.
The vision and engineering that went into this car has a great deal of technical know-how and creativity: specially engineered one-off components, and characteristic Moon disc-styled wheels, lend the car unmistakable Bonneville flair.
Almost every young American had a modified ride of some sort back in the 1940's and 1950's. The most coveted was to be the 1932 Ford roadster. Usually fenderless and often hoodless, these stripped down lil’ gems tore up the streets of our little town.
Fast forward to the 1960s and 1970s when drag strip and street racing etiquette was more important than your social or economic background. Fat tires, pro-street rear ends, huge motors and blowers went into our beloved lil’ roadsters. The barn finds and classified ads often had non-running and complete basket case 1932 roadsters for $500 or less! With a roll bar and the aforementioned powerhouse drive trains, it was RACE TIME. The look was often primer or bright red with some local sponsor painted on the side.
In the 1980's and 1990's was a sad time for Hot Rods. Fuel injected motors were scavenged from wrecked “sports cars” and shoehorned into the engine bays of our favorite rod. The best thing to come from the 1980s was a real need for quality reproductions of the 1932 Ford. Independent companies began to design and produce affordable body reproductions of the 32 “Deuce” Roadster. With these bodies readily available and full roadworthy and safe chassis in production , it was once again ON for the Roadster craze.
Current year, the economy is in the toilet and our garages may have more assets in them than what is our bank accounts do! Show quality paint jobs, custom fabricated billet parts, amazing one-off wheels and interiors that rival those of Rolls Royce.
The Hot Rod community is made up of as many wealthy business owners, and investors as it is the garage mechanic or “gear head”. EVERYBODY WISHES THAT THEY COULD HAVE A 1932 STEEL BODY ROADSTER SHOWCAR…..PERIOD!!
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: This is a project car that is 98.5% complete and is registered as a street car with a title. The car will need to gone over to make sure that you are comfortable with what has been completed so far. I purchased the car with the intentions of finishing it, but over projects have gotten in the way and now I have another business opportunity that I want to focus on.

Plug In 2014: ALTe ready to join Ford's EQVM to convert, sell F-150 PHEV [w/video]
Mon, Aug 4 2014It's been a while since we've checked in with ALTe and its plans to convert big work vehicles like the Ford F-150 into plug-in hybrids. So, when we saw a demonstration vehicle sitting outside the San Jose Convention Center at the Plug In 2014 Conference last week, we had to get a closer look. When we did, we realized that it's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. It's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. The reason for the well-worn F-150 with 30,000 miles on it is that ALTe has been showing off its extended-range EV technology to lots of people all around the country, and Kyle Maki has been the man on the scene more often than not. "This one, I've taken all over the country," he told AutoblogGreen. "I've wore out that seat, I think. The only reason this one wasn't driven here was because we were in Charlotte [NC] last week and I didn't want to take a chance and not make it in time for this event." In other words, ALTe is out there, ginning up excitement for the idea of a plug-in hybrid Ford with an electric range of up to 40 miles and which can then continue on gas for another 360 miles at around about 25 miles per gallon. ALTe wants to not only convert new vehicles but it also offers retrofits for fleets that are happy with their current fleet. The company offers converted versions of the Ford E350 and E450 utility vehicles now but the near-mythical F-150 PHEV is still "coming soon." Yes, orders are now being accepted, but you will be forgiven if you think this is all happening on a slow time scale. There are simply a lot of things to do before ALTe can sell the truck. ALTe is currently attempting to join Ford's EQVM program, which is the electric version of the standard Qualified Vehicle Modifiers program. The QVM program requires coachbuilders to "be successfully evaluated by Ford Motor Company on criteria such as engineering, the manufacturing process, quality control, and adherence to Ford and Lincoln Divisions guidelines." Qualified applicants must also meet all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, conform to Ford/Lincoln conversion guidelines and agree to be inspected annually as well as have a "commitment to continuous improvement." Maki has a simpler explanation. "It basically means you're a preferred supplier, a Tier 1, if you will," he said.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?
Sun, 28 Jul 2013Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.
