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. |

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.
1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
Ford Claims Focus As World's Best-Selling Car For Second Year In A Row
Mon, Jan 27 2014Ford Motor Co. has claimed its Focus sedan beat out the Toyota Corolla for the title of 'best-selling car in the world' for the second year in a row. The declaration was based on independent sales figures from January to September of 2013, according to USA Today. Last year, Ford used data from the analysis firm Polk to support its claim of having the best-selling car of 2012. Toyota objected, stating the Corolla sold more units. The numbers eventually showed that the Ford Focus was the best selling nameplate of the year, but may have been second to the Toyota sedan overall since multiple variations of the Corolla are sold under different nameplates around the world. Data from the analysis firm R.L. Polk found Focus registrations from January through September 2013 reached 856,587. Ford can thank booming car sales in China, where the automaker sold 303,481 units, for a sizable chunk of that number, which was a 16 percent increase over 2012. "Our success with Focus is the result of Ford's connection to our customers all over the world," said Jim Farley, an executive vice president at Ford. The Focus and Corolla both compete in the popular small sedan segment, along with other hot-selling cars like the Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze. These vehicles make a up a large portion of sales for their respective automakers, as they tend to hit a sweet spot for many consumers, coming with a starting sticker price under $20,000, solid fuel economy, plenty of cargo and passenger room and, lately, sharp exterior design and sportier driving dynamics.
