Ford Roadster 1929 Hot Rod Pro Street Rat Rod Street Rod on 2040-cars
Ranger, Texas, United States
1929 Ford Roadster. 350 Chevrolet, 350 auto transmission, gray leather interior, fiberglass body, new custom frame, steel wheels, new tires, disc brakes front and rear, rack and pinion steering, chrome tilt wheel, extra interior material left over from the fresh build in the trunk. New battery located in the trunk. New reproduction plastic gas tank, new dual exhaust, and chrome floor shift. I bought this car a couple years ago from the original builder and have stored it in an enclosed race car trailer. I have only driven the car in a few parades, so it is still used very little. I listed the car with a clear title, but the car DOES NOT HAVE A TITLE. I had to put something in the listing, but it come with a Bill of Sale only, so do not expect a title with the car. Check your state's laws etc. on how to apply for a title. I just didn't take the time to apply for one. This is a ground up from scratch build with all new parts, frame, body, rack and pinion steering, etc. It was not built with junk parts and looks and drives great. The car is being sold AS IS with no warranty either written or expressed. You are welcome to come view the car in person, test drive it, kick the tires, crawl in it under it and then bid to own. The car runs and drives as it should, lights, turn signals, oil pressure gauge and water temp gauges all work. The speedometer shows only 11 miles since built, but the odometer and speedometer register slower than you are actually going, so it will need a different plastic gear on the cable running into the transmission. Fuel gauge and horn does not work. The horn was working, so it has to be a simple fix. The car is being sold locallyalso, so I will end the bidding if sold here, but once the reserve has been met on Ebay, it will sell on eBay. There is NO top. It is roadster and does not have any type of top at all. Both doors are functional and open and close easily. I am 5'10", weigh 210 lbs. and fit fine. There is room enough for two people and maybe one small child in the center. Bid to own and good luck. Ask any question you would like and I will answer. Shipping in the responsibility of the buyer. |

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]
Wed, 05 Jun 2013For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.
