This car has had a boat load of money spent on it, by me and the previous owner.

When I got the car the previous owner had spent around $22,000.00 on the car.

Then I spent about another $6,000.00 on it to finish it up.

I don't expect to get back all the money that has gone into this car, that is just not the way this car thing works as you probably know.

I will tell you that my reserve is considerably less than what was spent to get it to this point of completion.

It has been tubed with a fuel cell in the trunk. (one of the nicest tub jobs I have seen)

It has a 9" ford rear end in it with all new components, Mark Williams Master Line Hi Performance Axles. 

It has headers with stainless exhaust

It has a built 302, the guy said it was a 331 stroker motor, but I can't say for sure. It runs real strong.

It has a built automatic in it, but it is not a c4 or a c6. I think it's a metric ford automatic. 

Virtually everything on this car is new or rebuilt.

All the running gear, suspension, paint, interior, tires and wheels.

The color is two tone Tacoma silver on the bottom and dark charcoal gray metallic on top.

There are lime green and purple hand laid pinstripes separating the two colors, (They look nicer than it sounds) along with some pen striping on the trunk, hood and red and black ones on the dash.

I know I am forgetting some stuff, so you can ask any questions you may have.

There has been around 28,000.00 put into this car,

the paint and interior were done in the last 6 months.

The tub job, which is one of the best I have seen was 6500.00 not including the rear-end or springs.

Check out the back seat, it is not shortened up like most tubed jobs.

As you can see the under side of the car looks as good as the top side.

You couldn't build this car for what you can buy it for, if your grandmother gave you the car to start with.

Thanks for looking and bidding.

Buyers remorse is not included with this car.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.

Ford gives police chiefs tech to surveil officers in their own cars

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Police officers certainly have a difficult job in keeping the streets safe, but as public employees in positions of authority, there is still a very real need for oversight. To that end, Ford is partnering with a tech company to offer a new system called Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement on its line of Police Interceptor patrol vehicles that could make cops safer, while giving cities a better idea of what its officers are doing.
The system streams live data about cruisers back to the home base to people like the police chief or shift supervisor. That info includes expected things like speed, location and cornering acceleration, but it gets incredibly granular as well, with records of things like if emergency lights are on, or even if an officer is wearing a seatbelt.
Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement "ought to protect officers as much as it protects the public," said Ford spokesperson Chris Terry to Autoblog. Constantly monitoring patrol cars offers cities a lot of advantages, too. First, it reduces potential liability because a department can prove where each vehicle is at all times. Also, officers know they are being watched and may potentially drive more safely.
