off by saying this is a right hand drive street/hot rod/rat rod! Now ur
thinking it will be very difficult to drive a right hand drive vehicle!
Wrong!! Everyday postal carriers drive right hand drive vehicles and
most of Europe drives right hand drive vehicles! If they can do it so
can U!!! and yes the pedals are in normal locations gas on the right
brake on the left. It has a custom built steel tubing chassis with a 4in
Z in the front and a 15in Z in the rear. With 4 link rear with a coil over shock system. In front we have a ford model a suicide

custom built friction shocks. Also included in the front suspension is a
factory Corvair Aluminum steering gear with a new 360deg pitman arm
from Speedway Motors. Front spindles are factory ford 37-48 with a new
Speedway Motors disc brake kit and a 2in raised steering arm. The body
is an original steel Henry Ford 1926 Model T Sedan. It was in excellent
cond before the custom body work was done. It has an 8in chop with the
rear window being sectioned flipped and chopped 6in. the Visor is
completely custom made as is the windshield header panel and the
windshield still hinges and swings out. The roof is a custom cut Hickory
hand scraped hardwood floor. Mounted down with over 30 polished brass
acorn nuts. The cowl has also has a length of factory style hood welting
that has been laid in place with more polished brass acorn nuts and
house's the original 11 gallon gas tank. And to continue with the brass
theme both door handles have been buffed to remove most plating to show
there brass and copper construction and both radiator support rods are
polished solid brass. The radiator shell is from a 1924 Durant Star and
has been ornamented with the radiator cap topper from an 8n ford
tractor. The radiator is a new Champion 2 core aluminum and has a new
16in electric fan mounted to back side to keep the performance 350 Chevy
motor cool. The motor has a new water pump! New Fuel pump! New Hi
torque starter and a Mercruiser one wire hi amp alternator. The ignition
system is a new pro comp stand alone distributor with high voltage
coil. The plug wires are 8mm from summit racing. The Holley carburetor
is a 600 cfm and was rebuilt by us and works great. The new reproduction
caddy/olds air cleaner sets off the look of the motor off along with
the satin black Chevrolet tall valve covers. The exhaust is giving the
car that fast racing look! They are sprint car style headers and have
built in mufflers and are covered in a nice header wrap. Now for the
transmission. It's a Chevy turbo 350 with a 2400 stall convertor and
shifted into gear via a custom made shifter. (see pics) the rear end is a
1970 Buick skylark single track 10 bolt with a low 3 series gear. The

wheels with original Ford beauty rings. The center caps are new
Aftermarket. The taillights are aftermarket model A stainless steel
Stop lights. The headlights are Guide 903 brass tag lights with tags
removed and holes filled. They are filled with new Tri Bar Amber turn
signal headlights. Now lets go into the interior. The seats are custom
made from sheet steel and have padded inserts. Now the Dash. This is a
rare part here! It is from a 1934 Huppmobile 3 window coupe model W136.
Few of these cars were made and even the fewer still exists. We filled
all the holes on the middle of the dash and moved the glove box door to
the left side of the car. Then we filled the factory holes in the center
of dash then mounted VDO classic style speedo/temp/oil pressure gauges.
There is a airplane style toggle for the ignition and a hidden key
switch under the dash beside the steering column. Mounted to the
steering column is the turn signal switch and horn button. All glass in
the sedan has been replaced with new laminated safety glass. All side
windows door and qrt glass still crank up and down. I am sure somewhere
in here I have forgot something so if u have any questions please just
ask! U can call or txt me at 260-715-188O.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
Project Ugly Horse: Part VII
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Devils, Details and Weight Reduction
There are many things I could call this exercise. A party is not one of them.
I've spent three days crammed in the axle well of this 1989 Mustang with nothing to keep me company beyond a trouble light, a DeWalt drill on the very last of its legs and billion razor sharp, red hot slivers of metal with an affinity for my most sensitive of regions. My joints are raw from crawling around on the concrete. I'm half deaf from the shriek of the spot weld cutter and the boom of the cold chisel and hammer.
Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.
