Beautiful, One Of A Kind Ford Model A Roadster on 2040-cars
Denver, Colorado, United States
The car has been gone through within six months by a mechanic, had all the fluids replaced, brakes fixed, transmission and engine gone through, and is top working condition. A few differences about the car from a stock model is, the head lights and hood are from a Cord L-29 special. The original model A engine has been replaced with a model B engine which can hit speeds up to 55 mph. This was done so it could be driven in the city or highway. The gas tank has been moved to the back, with a fuel pump added to it. This is in pristine condition and this car makes a statement for anyone who owns it. Please be aware, this vehicle uses leaded gasoline. The wheels are off of a 1935 model, and it has a 6 volt alternator instead of a generator. Runs great, no leaks.
This car was originally purchased by my grandfather in the 1970'S. He has acquired all parts through a life long process and passion he had. After he passed away, he left it to me, and I have had it garage kept for 6 years, and have never driven it myself, due to the fact I'm 6'3" and cant fit in it properly. So be advised, it does not suit a person over 6 ft comfortably. The headlights have authenticity plates on them, so you know they are not reproduction. The lights themselves, took him 15 years for him to find. Payment must be made via wire transfer, and buyer is responsible for picking it up and or shipping it. The vehicle is located in Denver Colorado. The total mileage on the vehicle is unknown, the Model B engine was installed ten years ago, and less than 2000 miles has been put on it since, runs great. Its been kept in a heated garage.

Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks
Fri, 19 Sep 2014It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible makes inappropriate appearance in Detroit [w/video]
Tue, 14 Jan 2014With the polar vortex fresh in the minds of Autoblog's Detroit-based staff, we're finding it funny that any manufacturer would choose January in the Motor City to show off a new and highly anticipated convertible to the general media and public for the first time. But Ford has done just that, giving us our first real peek at the new Mustang Convertible in the flesh.
The new Mustang Convertible is more or less unchanged from the standard coupe, with some subtle styling tweaks to accommodate the retractable soft top. Engine and transmission choices are identical to the hardtop, although we should expect slightly lower performance due to the hardware for the roof. Like the coupe, neither prices nor performance metrics have been published yet for the convertible.

2017 Ford GT looks resplendent in Liquid Silver and will be built in Ontario
Thu, Feb 12 2015You didn't think we'd let an opportunity to capture another high-res image gallery of our favorite vehicle from the North American International Auto Show pass by, now that it's taking center stage in Chicago, did you? Especially since it's now painted in a brand-new hue? Of course not. And so we're happy to present to you the 2017 Ford GT in Liquid Silver, wearing titanium-tinted racing stripes. It may not be as classically American as the show-stopping blue that debuted with the concept in Detroit, but it's beautiful nonetheless. And, in even better news, we hear that the GT has been confirmed for production at Ford's factory in Markham, Ontario, according to our Canadian friends at CTV News. To recap what we know about the Ford GT – besides the fact that we're in mad, mad love with it, of course – it's beautiful, will be powered by a mid-mounted 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 with "more than 600 horsepower," it's beautiful, it sends all that power to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, it's beautiful, blends a carbon fiber monocoque and body panels with aluminum subframes, and it's beautiful. We think it's likely headed for endurance-racing competition, as was the original GT40 that is its spiritual grandfather, and we're sure it will look good doing it. Heck, maybe it'll even win at Le Mans. In any case, check it out in high-res glory below, in multiple color schemes, in both images and video.
