 Custom 2001 Mustang SVT Cobra. This is an adult owned, never raced, clean title car.  There is almost $85k invested at this point…   I have receipts for most everything and a few spare parts to go with it.

 The car has a 5.1 Liter all aluminum stroker motor in a Teksid block with forged internals that are safe to 8000 rpm. It is currently tuned to 7500 rpm, and with the ATI P1-SC supercharger @ 10psi of boost makes 532 rwhp with a very safe air/fuel ratio. The engine has ported Fox Lake stage-3 aluminum heads, big cams, ported aluminum intake manifold, steel Canton 7-quart roadracing baffled oil pan, Kooks stainless steel longtube headers and Bassani stainless steel X-pipe and cat-back exhaust. The car has an Accusump 3 quart hydraulic oil accumulator with an isolation valve for cold starts and hard driving, for total oil capacity of approximately 11 quarts, as well as an electric water pump. The drivetrain is a McLeod dual disc clutch in a Lakewood scattershield, G-Force 1200hp rated 6-speed T-56  transmission, custom steel driveshaft w. safety loop, Drive Shaft Shop 900hp rated half-shafts, a Torsen differential with Ford Racing 3.73 gears and a Billetflow differential brace.  The car has a full Maximum Motorsports suspension including welded tubular K-member/front sub frame w. remote oil filter kit, coil-overs with adjustable ride height both front and rear, Bilstein shocks/struts with the front struts recently rebuilt by Bilstein, tubular lower control arms, caster/camber plates, bumpsteer adjusters front and rear, polyurethane and aluminum suspension bushings, and chassis braces including welded in subframe connectors, K-member brace and strut tower brace. The car rides on Ford Racing 18" x 9.5" 2000 Cobra R wheels held on with ARP wheel bolts, Michelin PS2 Pilot Sport 275-40ZR18 tires, and has Wilwood 14" 2-piece 6 piston front brakes with Griggs Racing brake cooling ducts. At present, the car has approximately 13K miles on the new All Ford built motor, and approximately 23K miles on the new transmission and clutch. The following new parts were installed in approximately the last 10k miles: steering rack, Flaming River steering shaft, Procharger idler pulley, inner CV joints, alignment. The following new parts were installed in approximately the last 13K miles: Torsen differential, Wilwood 15" 2 piece 6-piston front brakes, Cobra fuel tank/fuel pump, A/C compressor, oil cooler.  There is not a lot left that's still stock on this car. The engine is making 532 rwhp with a very safe air/fuel ratio--which is about 620 hp at the crank. The supercharger currently on it is the one designed for the original factory 4.6L non-supercharged high compression motor, so it doesn't flow nearly as much air as this built engine could use. The supercharger can be rebuilt by ATI and upgraded to D1-SC internals for approximately $1K. With a 15psi pulley and a new dyno tune, this combination should make north of 800 hp, 650 hp at the wheels at least, but I just have not felt the need. The rest of the driveline has been built to take pretty much anything you could throw at it. This car is a blast on the back roads, yet I see as high as 26 mpg on the interstate. I have taken good care of her and the interior is in great condition, with new carpeting and a Ford Racing FR500 steering wheel, as well as an alarm system. The exterior does have a few scratches and chips, but overall the car really looks good. The odometer shows about 109k, but with the gear swap, it actually has right around 96k.  With just about the entire drivetrain, suspension and steering replaced in the last 23k miles, it isn't an issue anyway.  Most of the listed work was done by Jeff at All Ford Performance in Vancouver, WA. Consistently maintained and mechanically very good, all told, there is close to $85K into this project.  Although she's been a great car to have and to drive, changing priorities calls for a sale. I'd like to see her go to a good home, and this is your chance to get a lot of car for the money.

Ford Focus EV's slow sales trigger massive incentives

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports Ford is having real trouble moving its new Focus Electric. As a result, the automaker is offering substantial incentives in an attempt to lure in more buyers. How substantial? Try $10,750 off of a three-year lease. What's more, the EV can now be had for $37,995 ($2,000 less than its original base price) on top of an additional $2,000 cash discount to buy the EV outright - or you can opt for 1.9-percent financing if you work through Ford Motor Credit. None of which factors in various potential government incentives. Last year, Ford managed to sell a paltry 685 of the 1,627 Focus EV hatchbacks it built.
Ford isn't alone in trying to woo more buyers to its EV effort. Nissan cut the price of its Leaf by a whopping 18 percent for 2013, now down to $28,800 and built in the USA. The move followed the automaker's substantial incentives in 2012.
If you want a Focus Electric, you can now apparently get your hands on one for as little as $285 per month with $930 due at signing for a 36-month lease with 10,500 miles per year.

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.

Meet the Greenest and Meanest vehicles of 2016

Wed, Jan 27 2016

If you've been keeping track, you won't be surprised with the number one entry in this year's list of greenest cars from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE). In fact, the top three spots on the 2016 list are all the same as they were in 2015. After that, things get interesting. For one thing, this is the first Greenest list that doesn't have any purely internal combustion engine powertrain on it. Hybrids, yes, but if you want to be one of the top 12 greenest cars this year, you'd better have some sort of electric angle. ACEEE says that the conventional, gas-powered Smart Fortwo and Chevrolet Spark just missed the cut. In a statement, ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan said, "The 2016 scores are in, and plug-in electric vehicles are outpacing all other vehicle offerings in terms of environmental friendliness." Like last year, one of the noticeable vehicles missing from the green list is the Tesla Model S. One reason? ACEEE takes curb weight into account (lighter is better), and the Model S is a heavy beast. The ACEEE doesn't just look at the clean side of the ledger. It also puts out a "meanest" list. These are the vehicles that pollute the most, not only from their tailpipes, but also any pollution created during the entire manufacturing process, from mining the raw materials to the energy used to produce the vehicle at the factory. The entire list, from greenest to meanest, is done using a "cradle to grave" analysis. You can see how the ACEEE determines its rankings here, explore the entire greenest cars site here, or click through our galleries to see which vehicles are extra green (above) or extra mean (below) this year. 12: Mercedes-Benz GL550 4MATIC View 12 Photos More Electric Cars than Ever on Greenest Vehicles List Electric Vehicles Nab 9 out of Top 12 Spots in ACEEE's Environmental Vehicle Rankings Washington, DC: Despite a tumultuous year for the automotive industry, manufacturers have continued to offer exciting technology options for a growing vehicle market. Today at greenercars.org, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) released its 19th annual comprehensive environmental ratings for vehicles. The following vehicles comprise the Greenest List for 2016: Greenest Score 1. Mercedes-Benz Smart ForTwo Electric Drive Convertible / Coupe 63 2. Chevrolet Spark EV 63 3. Fiat 500E 62 4.
