1913 Model T Ford Depot Hack, Just Restored on 2040-cars
Palmyra, New York, United States
1913 Depot Hack that was just finished at the end of last summer and attended one car show where it won trophy. Only driven around the block a few times and is ready to go anywhere. I built this car with the intention that I did not want to have break downs, constant "monkeying around" nor the usual constant tinkering that most "T's" need. I had this one done for national tours. this car has the best of everything with over 20,000$ invested plus labor, plus paint shop labor, time spent searching for pieces and shipping... Motor & Trans is 1926. Was completely rebuilt by "Ron's Machine shop ( Known for Montana 500 wins ) cost was over $ 5000. Carb by Russ Potter ( NH). Has Alum intake, new exhaust manifold, 260Z Cam, Kevlar linings, Jack rabbit Clutch, Kevlar Linings, low head, modified early fan with roller bearings inserted, Hogs headed rebuilt with "O" rings so no leaks ! & pedals are lettered ( C,R,B) not 26/27 wide type. Because of the larger brake drum in trans. car is safer as it stops quickly for a T. 4 dip pan straightened on KR Jig. Has dual internal oil feeds to front bearings. Mag and magnets are reworked by "ron's" Coils are rebuilt and in box with KW Switch, Internal contacts and porcelains are original Ford not repros for best contact.. Has an "E TIMER" so no screwing around with spark and runs really smooooth with lots of power, yet looks original. Comes with a'17 block that can be modified to '13, early narrow nosed oil correct pan as a spare &possibly NOS crankshaft. Correct front and rear ends all rebuilt with new bushings and new Mae West shackles roller bearings in rear end not brass plates, hasTapered leaf springs. Front is new & repro rear is mint used original. drive shaft has FUN PROJECTS adjustable bearing and NOS U joint.. Has fabric lined accessory brake shoes not cast iron and will stop. All chassis sand blasted and primed and is urethane black with hardner to make oil and gas resistant. All oilers are correct brass. Battery is 6 volt 1 yr old. All fenders, hood former, gas tank, running boards, hood are new Rootlieb. Headlamps are new Rootlieb ( I did not paint them to change from '12 to '13 style). Prestolite tank painted factory grey and is full. Have Langs kit to hook up lights to it, but not installed...yet. Steering colum is all rebuilt with new brass parts and 26-27 gears for easy & safe steering. Body is by Pleasantville Body Co. Wheels are rebuilt by the Amish in Ohio and beautiful, all wood and hardware is new .( all 4) with sandblasted and filled rims and hubs that were nice to start with. Wheel bearings possibly NOS. Tires of course are new. Radiator is new from "BERGS". Side lamps are nice originals with burners but have dings in the fonts that are minor lamps are restored other wise ...same for the tail lamp all are corect '13-'14, Speedo is winged script. Horn is original with new LANGS tube ,reed, fittings. As I had intended to keep this as my own car I did it right, But we have the American Eagle "T" racer and wife prefers to show that and we are looking for a '33 Ford body if any one has one available to put a hi perf '51 Merc Flatie we have into. Car is dusty and a bit dirty in some shots as pictures were taken just after winter storage in a dusty barn. This '13 draws a lot of attention where ever it goes and kids just love it !! The touring shown in one pic is sold and gone. Many small parts are either NOS Ford or repros from Langs & Bob's.

Ford Fiesta rally car warms up in Sweden
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Rallycross is seeing a sudden surge in popularity with two series bringing the racing to the US and Europe. The Ford OMSE team is competing in both championships this season, and it saw no reason not to hold practice with a highly modified Fiesta in the snow of Northern Sweden. It brought together Andreas Bakkerud from the European-focused FIA World Rallycross Championship and Patrik Sandell from the North American-focused Global Rallycross series for some training and fun. They certainly appear to be enjoying themselves, too, with some lovely pirouettes in the powder.
If you're unfamiliar with rallycross, the discipline combines the best of rallying and circuit racing. Drivers (with no co-drivers) race rally cars over a circuit that generally mixes dirt and asphalt, and unlike traditional rallying, multiple cars compete side-by-side at once. Even better, it's often a very two-fisted form of motorsports with lots of car-to-car contact. Global Rallycross and World Rallycross will both kick off their seasons in May. With spring on the way, scroll down to watch the Fiesta kick up some of the last snow drifts of the year.

Chris Harris checks out Ken Block's Hoonicorn '65 Mustang
Thu, Dec 4 2014Ken Block's Hoonicorn, which stars in Gymkhana Seven, might still bear a passing resemblance to a vintage 1965 Ford Mustang, but underneath the skin, the car is one of the baddest custom machines to ever do a smoky burnout on the road. The ever enthusiastic British auto journalist Chris Harris is now showing what really makes Block's new ride tick on video, and Harris even gets to go for quite a ride. The only Mustang components really left on the Hoonicorn are the A-pillar, B-pillar and roof, according to Harris. Everything else is ditched to create Block's ultimate Gymkhana tool. The 845-horsepower, 6.7-liter Rousch Yates V8 sits behind the front axle, and the grunt is routed to all four wheels through a Sadev gearbox usually found on Dakar Rally vehicles. The whole drivetrain is packed with cool little touches; like that giant handbrake that also disconnects power from the front wheels when in use. The superlatives about the Hoonicorn could go on forever, but settle in and let a very excited Harris tell you about just some of them. He's like a kid in a candy store here, and the look that combines surprise, fear and joy during his ride with Block is the kind that lacks a suitable word in the English language.
