1962 Ford Falcon with Indy car engine

The engine is a complete story in itself. Ford designed this engine in1965 and ran it several years at the Brickyard. Ford was able to win several times with these motors. Some time after the fact they sold the whole operation to A. J. Foyt, and this extremely rare 1965 Ford 4 cam Indy car engine was sold to Builder (Ken Thompson). There is probably more engineering in this car than in 10 normal cars. Ken built this car in its entirety and there is a reason for every single part on the car. With his background in Racing and growing up in NASCAR country Ken has a very unique skill set in fabrication and has been building parts for Holman Moody Racing for the past 18 years. So when he built this car he envisioned nothing less than a full, NASCAR- like construction with top-of-the-line parts. He wanted to go very fast but still be completely tractable on the street. The Interior of the car is completely stripped down to the bare component’s seats, dash, gauges, steering wheel, start switches, rearview mirror, shifter and don’t forget the custom built roll cage. The engine bay is tuxedo sharp, crisp, angular lines surrounding the brutally serious Indy small-block Ford. The quad-cam Ford defies conventional engine layout by positioning the intake manifold between the camshafts and has the exhaust exiting to the inside of the cylinder heads. The beautifully hand-crafted stainless steel exhaust runners snake their way forward, merging into a custom 8-1 collector which is in turn bolted to an enormous Turbinate’s GTK 1000 turbo.. The craftsmanship on this car is amazing and all of the parts together transform into one of the fastest hand built street legal cars ever. Builder claims it is capable of 11,000+rpm and 250mph.

Time to catch up with Jay Leno's Garage, including his Lamborghini Espada restoration

Tue, Dec 23 2014

If you're already jealous of the time, effort and money that Jay Leno can devote to his massive car collection, prepare to get a little greener with envy with this latest video from Jay Leno's Garage. Instead of the usual format of discussing a model for about ten minutes and then taking it out for a test drive, this week Leno gives viewers on a tour of over a dozen projects concurrently happening in his stable. The breadth of the vehicles shown and the things being done to them run the entire span of the automotive hobby. At the same time, Jay's shop is working on just a simple restoration of his 1969 Lamborghini Espada (pictured), and at the other side of the building, the team is rebuilding a wood-bodied 1914 Detroit Electric from scratch. He eventually plans to slot a more modern electric drivetrain into it. If bikes are more your interest, there's a freshly completed Brough Superior just waiting for a ride, and if American models are your thing, a Ford Bronco is getting a Coyote V8 installed into it. You have some very specific tastes if you can't watch this clip and start wishing at least one of these vehicles could be in your own garage. Other than the personal projects his mechanics are working on in the shop, Jay gets to have them all, plus plenty more.

Fri, Sep 25 2015

We got our first looks at look at Ford's new Super Duty truck lineup this week but it's Volkswagen that has been dominating the news cycle, as Matthias Muller is named CEO of the embattled automaker. Autoblog's Senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] We got our first looks at look at Ford's new Super Duty truck lineup this week but it's Volkswagen that has dominated the news cycle as Matthias Muller is named CEO of the embattled automaker. I'm Senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Super Duty is new for 2017. Our first look at these heavy duty trucks showed increased cab space for passengers, and [00:00:30] a lighter aluminum frame. Ford insists these changes will provide customers with increased towing capacity and fuel efficiency. The all-new Super Duty will be built at Ford's Kentucky Truck Plant, and it goes on sale in late 2016. Now, in case you missed it Volkswagen is under fire for gaming EPA emissions testing. A massive government recall is in the works and the world's top-selling automaker is looking at significant losses in both car sales and its stock value. On top of losing billions of dollars, Volkswagen is also facing [00:01:00] legal issues. And this week we saw Martin Winterkorn step down as CEO of Volkswagen Group. These changes mark just the beginning of VW's arduous process of rebuilding consumer trust. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, plus some added insight on the Buick Cascada and its pricing strategy. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
