Fantastic recreation based on a 1960's McDonough Industries Tin Lizzy Mini Model T based Go Kart made popular by the Shriners use in parades for many years. These cars were often given away in promotional contests by companies to sell their goods.
Found in a barn in New Hampshire in Fall of 2013 and restored spring of 2014. This little car has gone through a complete tear down and cleaning of every component of which there are many. This car is very detailed down to the front suspension. Axles were stripped and rebuilt and serviced as was the frame and transaxle. All hardware has been replaced with new brass or zinc cad plated pieces. New floorpan and engine as well as wheel bearings. Wheels serviced and hubs all rebuilt. The fiberglass fenders were stripped, cracks repaired and weak areas braced before being repainted. The new vinyl interior is very comfortable. The custom wood flat bed covers the motor nicely and provides a sturdy platform for a precious payload. The throttle is on the steering column and the handles outside the left side body operate the brake and clutch. This little car has had it all done and looks great. It drives very nicely and is easy to operate. Texaco decals are period correct and make this vehicle that much more of an eye catcher. These vehicles are getting rare and not many look this nice. Display, play, or cruise the swap. Every kids dream and there is a kid in all of us! Available to view. Please feel free to come see it. Buyer must arrange for shipping or pickup. Unique. Be a hero.

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?

Wed, 09 Oct 2013

Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
