1956 Ford Fairlane

Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed

 


Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads.  It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything  Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles.  The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo.   The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch.  The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe.  Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator.  There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding.  Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should.  This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!

 

The body & paint are in very good condition!  The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago.  The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up.  There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE!  The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition.  The tires have about 300 miles on them.  

The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition.

The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.  

 

Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb.  The four speed works great.  

The engine runs very strong and fast.  No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator.

Steering is straight and solid.

The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back.

All fluids have been changed and are fresh.

 

 In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor?  Never!  Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask.

 

This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied.  The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time.  Serious bidders only!  I will require a non-refundable $5000 deposit within 72 hours of close of this add.  Remaining funds MUST be paid by cash or bank wire transfer.  I will however accept a cashiers check if I am with you at the bank when you receive it. The remaining funds will need to be paid in full within 7 days of close of auction.

 

Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer. I am not a dealer. Any taxes or registration fees are the responsibility of the buyer pursuant to their home state requirements.  I have a clear title in my name. The vehicle is for sale locally so I have the right to end this auction at any time.  If there is a qualifying bid then the ebay add will remain and the high bidder will own.

Hot Wheels Ford Transit Connect is worth more if we keep it in the box

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

If the 2014 Transit Connect is anything like it's utile current-generation predecessor, and we suspect it is, it will undoubtedly be one of the most functional vehicles in North America. Ford has used the occasion of SEMA to turn the TC in to things that both make use of that functionality, and occasionally sort of wreck it in the name of good old-fashioned fun. The Ford Hot Wheels Transit Connect most certainly falls into that second category.
Most TC owners might cite the vehicle's massive cargo capacity as its top positive trait, though in the case of this wide-bodied Transit said space has been sapped in the name of a 55-inch television screen, a massive Hot Wheels drag strip (continuing a popular theme at SEMA this year) and custom storage for dozens of models from one's personal hot wheels collection. Designers have also plucked the grippy Recaro seats from the Focus ST, and thrown in a pair of 18-inch tablet screens for connectivity on the go.
Naturally, the Transit Connect wouldn't be an appropriate SEMA vehicle, or Hot Wheels name-bearer, if it weren't wearing an eye-popping appearance package. Additional homage to the Focus RS can be found in the blazing blue and orange front fascia and bumpers, while 20-inch wheels make sure the wider (four-inches in front and six-inches in the back) Transit Connect sits just right. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder-engine that powers the Hot Wheels TC ensures that the concept is more show than go, but you probably had that pegged from your first look, anyway.

Kawei K1 pickup blatantly copies Ford F-150

Thu, Apr 24 2014

The Chinese auto industry used to be looked at as a joke full of products blatantly copied from foreign vehicles. However, companies like Qoros and others show that the country's automakers have taken big steps in terms of original design. It doesn't look like every automaker there is ready to put down the tracing paper yet, though. Case in point: The Kawei K1 pickup pictured above, which is an obvious rip-off of the Ford F-150. In fact, the company isn't even hiding it. Kawei deserves a little credit for its openness. In describing the new model, it says: "No matter the black net grille and the outline of the headlamp, even if the styles of fog lamp and engine cover, it looks the same as Ford Raptor." It also admits that spelling out the model name on the hood is inspired by Land Rover. It's available with either a 2.4-liter, gasoline-fueled four-cylinder producing 141 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque (elsewhere it also lists it as having 162 lb-ft) or a 3.2-liter six-cylinder diesel with 106 hp and 181 lb-ft. Regardless of engine, power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox. The trucks cost around 100,000 Yuan ($16,033). So at least the K1 is a reasonably priced knockoff. According to Car News China, the K1 is actually selling in small numbers. The company made 10,000 of them last year and even exported some to Africa and the Middle East. Kawei's factory is doubling in capacity this year to build even more. You can read more about the truck on the company's website in some very mangled English.
