Ford Model A (shay) on 2040-cars

Sandy, Utah, United States

The Shays were built with brand new Ford Pinto Running Gear (from 1979) and sold throughout the USA by Ford dealers.   I bought my 1979 Super Deluxe Shay approximately 15-years ago, when it had about 2400 miles on the odometer, but I only drove it a few hundred miles since I own it.  I updated the dash and added new gauges (see pictures)   It has an automatic transmission and the Pinto 2.4 engine. Changes I have done are:

 A. New upholstered canopy.

 B. Custom Bucket Seats and carpet (Only someone under 5’-2” can sit in the original seats – I’m 6’-2”)

C. For safeguard I replaced seals in Transmission, replaced engines seals, valve cover gasket, and timing belt, hoses. 

D. Replaced shocks and corrected the vertical adjustment. (Needed on all Shays)

E. Replaced Wheels with the modern powder coated wheels and new tires.

F. Added custom all wood Trunk.  (It still has the original trunk).

G. Laser etched wing windows.

H. MP3 – CD player.  

I. Build-in Tool Box w/ jack under the rumble seat.

J. New paint job last year.

L. New muffler and catalytic converter.  It has no problem passing safety and emissions test.  It runs perfect.

M. Completely rewired the car with all new wiring.  Since it has a fiberglass body, almost all the Shays out there have electrical issues.  This car has absolutely no electrical problems.  Replaced battery this week.

N. New Steering Column, Steering Wheel and pedals.

O. Custom Dash and new gauges.

 

I hate to sell it, but I have added too much to my shop and don’t have room for it anymore.   Also, the Hallmark trailer can be included.  I have doubled the floor and ramp thickness w/ addition 3/4 plywood and epoxy paint.  I won’t sell the trailer separate unless I sell the car first.   Trailer additional $2,500.00

 

$500 due as purchase, balance by wire transfer or cash with 5-days.  Sorry no Cashiers or Personal Checks.  Sold AS-IS, however, you can look and we can go for a test drive it.

Ford Mustang GT350 drops some camo

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Now that we've poured over the 2015 Ford Mustang in its standard form, it's time to look ahead. We already knew (and heard - literally) that Ford was working on a higher-performance version of its 'Stang to replace the Shelby GT500, and earlier reports have stated that it will simply be called the GT350.
We don't have a ton of detail to go on, but this latest set of spy photos clearly shows a hood-mounted air scoop, which suggests a forced-induction powerplant is under the hood. However, this disagrees with earlier reports that the GT350 will be all motor, using a naturally aspirated engine to send massive horsepower to the rear wheels. Our spies also point out the functional vent aft of the front wheels to allow for better airflow, and the massive quad exhaust pipes can be seen, clear as day.
Expect to see the Mustang GT350 in April, when it debuts at the New York Auto Show in conjunction with the Pony's 50th anniversary. In the meantime, have a look at our gallery above to see the latest shots of the hot Mustang out testing.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
