What a great hot rod! I took this 1923 Ford T Bucket in trade a while back and don’t drive it as much as I had planned to, so I've decided to sell it.  (I have three of them and don’t have time to work on and drive all of them.)

I didn't build the car; it was built by the infamous Grumpy’s Garage.  I've built enough of these things to recognize the amount of money that went into this one. This thing is pretty much turnkey (other than putting your own touches on it ) so instead of wasting the next two to three years building your own, jump in this one and head to the show nearest to you today! I've only driven this thing a few miles but it was a BLAST.   It is fasssstttt as hell. Certain to put a smile on your face

As far as I can tell, and coupled with the information I was given by the previous owner below is a list of what the car has:

1.                             Totally custom boxed channeled, reinforced chassis (not sure what brand the chassis is) extremely detailed, all painted/pinstriped/chromed. Drop front axle, front disc brakes, drum rear brakes all accessories, lines either chrome or painted…did I mention this damn thing has A LOT of chrome and detail, detail, detail ! lots and lots of work and $$$$$

2.                             Fiberglass body, (looks like speedway) with pickup bed, custom stake, upholstered cover, with approx 16 gal tank. Very nicely done. Finished in hot-rod black with pinstripes…looks great in person! I've run a body shop for the last several years, and I can tell you the body is nice and straight and the paint is very decent, definitely not a rat rod, but a nice hot rod with an old school look. It’s been to several rod runs in our area, and is always a crowd favorite and wins awards.

3.                             Very nicely done totally built 283 ( detailed with lots of chrome, high rise with single 4 barrel hei ignition, high flow radiator, ( I believe turbo 400 trans/w shift kit) and old school looking shifter, and a bunch of old school touches! A lot of heart and several Benjamins went into this build and it shows!  Roadster headers, with walker mufflers (most don’t spend the money for these).   Sounds awesome and hauls ass! Very tight and solid, drives great, everything seems to work as it should, has been licensed and registered in Utah for the last few years.

4.                             Really nice upholstery, not your run of the mill snap in garbage usually associated with T-buckets and Volkswagen dune-buggies! You couldn't build this car for twice the price of the reserve.

 

This vehicle will sell! The reserve is low and the car is awesome, so bid fast and bid often. Please feel free to contact me with any further questions you may have I’m available late every day. Thanks, Jerry 801-668-1924.

 

 The car is also available for sale locally and so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time before the reserve is met thanks for looking and good luck!

Our love of SUVs is killing people in the streets

Tue, Jul 17 2018

Americans are fond of supersized fast-food meals and colossal convenience-store fountain drinks, even though they're clearly bad for our health and U.S. adults keep getting fatter. We also like large vehicles, and our love affair with SUVs is killing people in the streets. According to a recent investigation by the Detroit Free Press/USA Today, the increase in SUV sales over the past several years coincides with a sharp rise in pedestrian deaths in the U.S. — up 46 percent since 2009, with nearly 6,000 people killed in 2016 alone. With SUV sales surpassing sedans in 2014 and pickups and SUVs currently accounting for 60 percent of new vehicle sales, it's no wonder Ford announced in April plans to cease U.S. sales of almost all passenger cars. And this followed Fiat Chrysler's move to virtually an all-truck, -SUV and -crossover lineup. While the Freep/USA Today investigation found that the simultaneous surge in SUV sales and pedestrian deaths comes down to vehicle size, it also points to a lack of action on the part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), even though it knew of the dangers SUVs pose to pedestrians. Also blamed are automakers dragging their feet on implementing active safety features. Using federal accident data, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) determined that there was an 81 percent increase in single-vehicle pedestrian fatalities involving SUVs between 2009 and 2016. Freep/USA Today's analysis of the same data by counting vehicles that struck and killed pedestrians instead of the number of people killed showed a 69 percent increase in SUV involvement. As far back as 2001, researchers at Rowan University forecasted a rise in pedestrian deaths as Americans began switching to SUVs. "In the United States, passenger vehicles are shifting from a fleet populated primarily by cars to a fleet dominated by light trucks and vans," the researchers wrote, with light trucks comprising SUVs.

Autoblog Minute: Ford Ranger, UK Mustang, Hyundai Hybrid

Fri, Aug 28 2015

Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over the Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of the Toyota Prius and a new Hyundai. Autoblog's senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the weekly recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of Prius and a new Hyundai. I'm Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute weekly recap. 2011 was the last time we saw Ford's midsize pickup in the US but according to a report from the Detroit News we could see production of the Ranger at the [00:00:30] Dearborn automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant as early as 2018. Ranger could compete with the Chevy Colorado and perhaps revive the compact and midsize pickup market for Ford, but the future of Ranger in the US depends a lot on Ford's ongoing negotiations with the UAW. About 2,000 orders for the 2015 Mustang were placed in the UK, tying up production of the pony car until July 2016. According to details in a press release from Ford UK, [00:01:00] it looks like Brits are a lot like their American cousins, opting for the 5.0 liter V8, with Race Red as the popular color of choice. Photos of the 2016 Toyota Prius leaked generating a lot of buzz over the styling. This fourth generation Prius will have some new competition as spy shots of a new Hyundai also surfaced this week. The car is said to be a hybrid and a bonafide "Prius fighter." Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, [00:01:30] including the latest in FCA rumors for 2016. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.

2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.
