    NOSTALGIC 1929 FORD ROADSTER PICKUP THAT EVOKES THE EARLIEST DAYS OF RODDING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DURING THE LATE 1930s AND EARLY POST WAR ERA.

NO SMALL BLOCK CHEVY OR EVEN A FLATHEAD V-8 HERE BUT AN ORIGINAL MODEL A 4 BANGER WITH PERIOD SPEED PARTS INCLUDING A VINTAGE MALLORY DUAL POINT DISTRIBUTOR, VINTAGE THOMAS TWO CARB MANIFOLD AND MATCHING FINNED ALUMINUM HIGH COMPRESSION HEAD, CAST IRON SWEPT-BACK "HEADERS", AND MORE.

 

CHASSIS AND DRIVETRAIN ARE TOTALLY AND FULLY REBUILT FROM FRONT TO BACK WITH ALL NEW BEARINGS, BUSHINGS, SEALS, SHACKLES, SPRINGS, SPINDLES, NEW BRAKE COMPONENTS INCLUDING SHOES, CYLINDERS, SPRINGS, DRUMS, AND HUBS.  FULLY REBUILT ENGINE W/ NEW BABBITT, PISTONS, TIMING GEARS, VALVES, SPRINGS, ETC.  NOTHING WAS OVERLOOKED.

 

BRAKES ARE '48 FORD HYDRAULIC, DROPPED FRONT AXLE.  CHASSIS IS "Z"ed  AT THE REAR IN THE TIME HONORED WAY.  BRAND NEW FIRESTONE WIDE WHITES.

 

THE ONE CONCESSION MADE TO DRIVING ON MODERN ROADS IS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ORIGINAL TRANNY WITH A T-5 FIVE SPEED WHICH DOES ABSOLUTE WONDERS TO CRUISING SPEED AND IT LOOKS TOTALLY NORMAL.

 

THE PICKUP IS PAINTED IN "BATTLESHIP" GRAY SIMILAR TO WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN BOUGHT AT AN ARMY SURPLUS STORE IN THE LATE FORTIES AND THE PAINT WAS APPLIED USING TECHNIQUES DEVELOPED TO GIVE IT A PATINA OF AGE THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DISTINGUISH FROM VERY OLD PAINT.    A OLD WORN LEATHER COUCH WAS USED.  CAREFULLY REMOVED THE HIDES, AND RE-CYCLED THEM TO UPHOLSTER THE SEATS AND INTERIOR GIVING THE INTERIOR A WARM, MELLOW LOOK AND FEEL.

 

IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THIS IS THE FUTURE OF RESTORATION, THE CAR WORLD HAVING BEGUN TO GROW TIRED OF THE ULTRA-SLICK, ULTRA-SHINY, OVER-RESTORED TRAILER QUEENS THAT HAVE PROLIFERATED AT CAR SHOWS IN RECENT YEARS.  I THINK IT IS TIME TO PUT CARS BACK ON THE STREET AND USE THEM AS THEY WERE USED SO MANY YEARS AGO.

 

ON THE ROAD, IT IS GREAT FUN, SOUNDS GREAT, AND GOES LIKE A MODEL A ON STEROIDS.

 

 
THIS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER FORD ROADSTER PICKUP, IT IS A UNIQUE WORK OF ART THAT WILL NEVER BE REPEATED OR REPRODUCED.  FOR MORE INFO PLEASE CALL (505) 681-5296

Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.

One Step at a Time
Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another.
Chuck Schwynoch had been patiently listening to my ramblings on the other end of the phone for a solid half hour. I'm not too big of a man to know when to ask for help, and at this point, I desperately needed some assistance. The truth is, working on a machine like a Fox Body Mustang is as easy as breathing thanks to the wealth of information available on the web. Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another, and odds are the sorry souls behind those builds shared the highs and lows of their torment with the internet community.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
