For sale is a 1918 Model T Ford Roadster. This is a beautiful T-bucket! My Father and I built it for him as his personal play toy but he does not drive it as much as it just sits. (He too busy driving his 1948 Ford Pickup) So he has asked me to sell it. No expense was spared on building a quality, safe car when we put this one together. Starting with the frame it is a custom built unit with all stainless or grade 8 hardware. The finish is not painted it is all powder coated! The frame, axle, hairpins, and all other components are powder coated gloss black. This looks great and will last sooo much longer than paint! The wheels are vintage steel chrome with baby moons to give it nice nostalgic look and all are wrapped in new rubber. The braking system is a dual master cylinder with Airheart 4 piston discs in front and new 9 inch drums in the rear. Stops on a dime! The steering system is a new Vega box (not rebuilt) and steers wonderful. The rear axle is a 9 inch Ford with new gears and will cruise on the highway without wrapping up. New custom made balanced drive shaft. The transmission is a 350 Turbo unit that was taken to the bare case and rebuilt end to end. The Engine on this car is a NEW 350 Chevrolet engine. The edelbrock intake was also powder coated black and a new edelbrock 4 barrel carb added. The exhaust are Sanderson zoomies with baffles to be loud enough to thrill but not so loud you dont enjoy the ride. Custom aluminium radiator and steel grill shell painted gloss black. The Body is a California Custom fiberglass unit with an opening passenger door for easy entry and exit. Much better than having to climb onto the rear tire!! The Body itself was sanded and smoothed, primed and blocked again and the painted and buffed with a beautiful gloss black. The interior is a harley davidson grain vinal inside and on the bed cover. The battery and gas tank are inside the bed with room for a car show chair or two left over. Powder coated gas tank as well. All new wiring including fuse panel and all switches and lighting components. Third brake light on the back for safety. The windshield frame is a new chrome unit and tinted safety glass installed. The firewall is also a powder coated piece of aluminium for extra protection and wear! The car was given a Black Widow spider theme with the stencil on the radiator and red hourglass on the rear differential. I have tried to tell all I could remember about this car but if you have any questions please feel free to email me and I will answer right away. This is not your typical old T-Bucket but a true thing of beauty that I hope someone will get many years of pleasure out of. The reserve on this car is very fair for what the vehicle is and really the buy it now is a bargain as well! Please look and if you want to come see and test drive the car we encourage you to do so! Please do not bid unless you plan to buy the car, we are open about it and want you to be happy so if you need to see it first come look! Thanks for your interest and happy bidding!!

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Fri, 16 May 2014Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
