This is a sweet 1928 Ford Model A Sedan! The car has been driven regularly over the past ten years and it really rips. Spend less time cleaning, polishing and tinkering and more time cruising.

This is as finished as a Rat Rod could go without looking hokey and you won’t find another like. The paint is flat black with old school scallops in white and outlined in red, finished off with beautiful pinstripes laid down by Paul Straus and Ron Lasker. The roof has been chopped 5 inches, all the wood has been replaced with white oak and finished with a dark stain and sealer. The car comes with a removable waterproof canvas top that can be buttoned on or off in a few minutes and secured in the back with custom leather buckle down straps. The front end sports a 1930 grill shroud with traditional BLC guide head lights on each side. The rear tail lights are 1939 Ford. The 1930 Chrysler side door handles, vintage peep mirror and 50’s bumpers give the exterior just the right amount of chrome to go faster.

The interior is finished in wood and stainless steel, hidden under the deck lid is a 15 gallon fuel tank made by Tanksinc. You might question the comfort of the seats, but they’ve got just enough spring to them that they are comfortable and look great. The red center console is made up of 1967 Buick fenders flipped around and welded together. A fully chromed 1932 style dash is inlayed with black Stewart Warner Wings gauges and one enormous vintage speedometer made by Maring and Company.(Maring and Company was based out of LA and made high speed speedo’s back in the day) The other gauges consists of water temp, oil pressure, oil temp for engine oil, oil temp for trans oil, air pressure(for air-ride) and volts. The 15 inch wood steering wheel is mounted to a 60’s VW bus steering column and gear box with a quick release so it can be removed for security purposes. The Enfield rifle is not included in the sale of the vehicle, it currently is slid over a shifter rod that protrudes approximately one foot out of the center console, I would recommend if you want to maintain the look you could find a stage gun for a few bucks on-line.

The drive train consists of a 1965 Chevy 327 that was fully rebuilt about 5,000 miles ago putting out approximately 375 hp and topped off with a 3x2 Offenhauser intake. The transmission is a 350 turbo automatic followed by a Chevy 12 bolt rear end with fresh 3.73 gears. The front suspension is a late 30’s strait axle and split wish bone set up suicide style with disc brakes. The rear consists of an old school hairpin radius rod set up sprung with adjustable coilovers and Chevy drum brakes. The wheels are reproduction artillery style wheels in a clear finish wrapped in reproduction Firestone tires.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.

Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
