I bought this car in November of 2011 from an eighty year old man where it had been parked in his garage for the last ten years.  The cars original color was green as seen in some of the pictures.  The owner before me wanted a red car and had the paint work done (not top quality).  The cars dash was sprayed black and door panels changed.  Someone was in the process of removing the black paint from the dash when I bought it.  This car was restored many years ago and reportedly came out of California. Point is the body work is average, not top shelf, but there is very little rust.  A few spots in the trunk floor and a few bubbles behind the rear tire.  Everything else is solid.  Within the last year and a half I have replace the complete exhaust system, the complete brake system (master/wheel cylinders, shoes, and rubber lines), water pump and cooling system parts including a new aluminum radiator, and repaired some leaks in the power steering system.  The fuel pump has been replaced and all fuel system/carb issues resolved.  New distributor vacuum spark advance along with a tuneup and battery.  The car has a shell of a hardtop (just the fiberglass) that could be finished out.  I purchased an original soft top with swing arm.  The top fabric needs to be replaced but the frame is in excellent condition.  This car is a driver, starts and runs fine.  I insured it and bought the license plate.  I drive it whenever I can (pleasure only).  It is very dependable and has earned my confidence.  I'm selling because I have got to a point where the body work needs to start.  I'm more mechanical than body work and have lost some interest.  I also have an old chevy truck I want to finish, so its time for this one to go.  I know I'm not going to make money or even get my money out of it, but I won't give it away either so there is a reserve.  Please contact me with any questions. I will send additional photos as requested.

Ken Block shows us around his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax

Thu, Jan 22 2015

From his Fiesta HFHV to his '65 Mustang Hoonicorn, the inimitable Ken Block has some awesome machinery at his disposal. But arguably the coolest of the bunch is the RaptorTrax. Based on the previous-gen Ford F-150 SVT Raptor - the one with the steel frame and V8 engine - Block's back country snowmobile on steroids packs a set of tracks at each corner, a full roll cage, equipment rack, lighting, jump seats, survival gear... everything he could need for a trip off road. The Gymkhana master showcased the beast a couple of months ago on the slopes of Baldface in Nelson, BC, but now he's followed up with a less eye-popping but more informative clip in which he shows us everything his RaptorTrax has to offer.
