I have a gorgeous, one of a kind, custom painted 1960 Ford Thunderbird. It is a tribute to the custom scalloping that Larry Watson was doing in the late 1950's in Los Angeles. This is a real stand out car and literally blows people away. You pretty much won't see another one like it.. The $7500 scalloping paint job was done in a gorgeous Tangerine metallic with a hand painted green pin striping to set it off, STUNNING!

The car has some cool factory features like working power windows, seat & clock. It also has power steering and brakes and she drives effortlessly down the road like a new one. It has 85K original miles on the original 352V8 Auto, rated from the factory @ 300 H.P. They are a very powerful car if you have not ever driven one.

Here is a list of the things done to her:

- New harmonic balancer
- New fuel pump with vacuum assist
- New timing chain 
- New points, condenser, rotor button, distributor cap and wires 
- New double platinum spark plugs
- New Holley carburetor
- Rebuilt power steering cylinder
- New water pump
- New fan belts
- New valve seals
- Road draft tube converted to PCV system
- New headlight and high beam switches
- New bulbs and lamps throughout entire car
- New modern stereo with iPod jack, (4) speakers and remote
- New door lock cylinders with keys
- New coolant hoses
- New heater core and valve
- New exhaust with factory type mufflers
- Lots of other new miscellaneous items like new chrome bumpers, trim, etc.
- Custom paint and pin striping by Jerry's House of Color in Ohio
- Lowered springs in the front
- 3 inch lowering blocks in the rear
- New chrome smoothie wheels
- 85,000 +/- original miles

The car is not 100% perfect as the work was done a few years ago, and now has some paint chips here and there and a tear on the passenger seat base, but all very minor things. Overall she is a really nice looking and driving car that will set you way apart at your next meet.

1969 Ford Talladega GPT Special is a SEMA showstopper

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Rad Rides by Troy has unleashed upon the SEMA crowds this custom 1969 Ford Torino Talladega GT Special, and it's a beauty. The car calls to mind the classic Holman Moody stock cars that circled NASCAR tracks in the late 1960's, driven by the likes of Mario Andretti, Dan Gurney and David Pearson, who won the Grand National title in both 1968 and '69 in a Ford Torino.
Even though it has plenty of stock-car influence, there's nothing retro about the car's design or powertrain, other than the fact that the engine is based on a Ford Boss 429 block. Fuel injection, aftermarket aluminum heads and a high-tech custom computer system combine to send 750 reliable ponies to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Brakes measure 14-inches all around, with six-piston Wilwood calipers up front and four-piston units out back.
There's custom bodywork abound, painted in a two-tone Tennessee Whiskey Gold and Daytona Sand finish. Check out all the amazing details in the image gallery below, and scroll down to read all about it in designer Troy Trepanier's own words.

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.

Galpin Ford GTR1 supercar debuts in Monterey

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Galpin Auto Sports has finally taken the wraps off the car we first previewed back in December, the Galpin Ford GTR1. A few weeks ago, we posted the first hints of just what the GTR1 would be capable of, with Galpin teasing that its 5.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 would produce in excess of 1000 horsepower, with a top speed of 225 miles per hour. Package all that in a coachbuilt body, and you have the recipe for one wicked supercar.
The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000.
Now, we have all the glorious details. Galpin is targeting a production run of six cars, but if interest is strong enough, will expand its initial quote to 24 vehicles. The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000. Opting for the aluminum bodywork could lower that, although it's not immediately clear by how much.
