1929 Ford Roadster BODY This is an extremely well thought-out, well constructed build. The Z24 350 Chevy V-8 with Jet coated Headers sends the power to the Ford 8" Currie rear via a 700-R4 automatic transmission. The 4 bar polished stainless front suspension is by Pete & Jake. The brakes are disc at all four corners, Radial tires are mounted on 15" front and rear polished American rims. The steering is Vega type with a Corvette steering column. Sitting on a 1929-32 Ford reproduction boxed chassis by Total Performance is a Wescott 1929 Ford Roadster body, finished in multiple coats of smooth deep Red basecoat/clearcoat paint. The fit and finish is up to above driver quality standards. The fabric top can be used up , folded down or easily removed with 4 bolts. INTERIOR Soft Tuck and Roll red and white leather, fitted carpet w / matching floor mats says to you to get in and enjoy the ride. The classic gauges all add to the overall ambiance. Notice the shifter, brake and gas pedal quality and location. The trunk opens up to reveal a fully finished look with a rumble seat that compliments the interior. This can be changed to a regular trunk. I have the painted frenched louvered hood sides but like with just the top on! The optima battery is hidden in a tray underneath the seat along with the fuse connections. DRIVING IMPRESSIONS Simply put, this roadster drives as good as it looks - not a small accomplishment in a Hot Rod. It is smooth, not choppy. It travels straight down the road, the transmission shifts perfectly. It has a very solid feel, no doubt a result of a first class build . The fitted carpet and matching floor mats are installed over layers of heat and sound deadening material so that there is no excess heat in the cockpit and no excess sound. The only sounds you hear are the throatiness of the exhaust system and the growl of those rear tires. There are no drivability issues! THE LOOK It's not easy for a Hot Rod builder to attain "the look" but this Roadster has it in spades. You gotta love this Hot Rod, it looks and sounds fast and mean standing still! And, oh yeah, everyone loves this car - lots of thumbs up and waves - smiles all around. But this car is not for the bashful type, not for someone who wants to fly under the radar. You will get noticed. OVERALL This custom built roadster, is only 5300 miles from new, and was built to drive, It is in very nice shape. It started life in 2011 . I am stating that it is a # 3 quality but it is much better. Simply put if you see this Roadster in person, you'll buy it. Check the component prices of this high caliber build and you'll realize the value - This car is proof that it makes economic sense to buy them finished. A sample of some of the items used in the build!

Ford honors Chinese Year of the Horse with Vaughn Gittin Jr., Mustang video
Fri, Feb 27 2015Calendar years and fiscal years tend to be the only timetables automakers concern themselves with, but that doesn't mean there isn't recognition of other measures of time. Ford has opted to observe the Chinese zodiac, largely because the Year of the Horse ended just last week. That's fortuitous timing, considering the first Ford Mustangs were making their way towards the People's Republic as celebrations were carrying on. To recognize this fact, and the end of the Year of the Horse, Ford recruited drift king Vaughn Gittin, Jr., to take a 2015 Mustang GT to the streets of Ordos City, in north-central China. It's not as dramatic as some of Ford's recent videos, like the one starring Ken Block and the Ford Focus RS, but it's pretty cool all the same. Take a look.

The history and future of the Ford Bronco
Tue, 17 Jun 2014
Some have suggested that the Bronco's demise was hastened by the fallout from the O.J. trial.
Twenty years ago today, ex-NFL linebacker Al "A.C." Cowlings drove his friend and onetime running back Orenthal James "O.J." Simpson on a parade lap of the Los Angeles highway system and onto an ignoble page of the history books. If you're in your late 20s or older, or a fastidious young student of 1990s American history, you're absolutely aware that Al and O.J.'s steed for the 'chase' was a white Ford Bronco. The white Ford Bronco, even.
Ford reserving 50th Anniversary Mustangs for service members
Tue, Dec 16 2014Think getting your hands on one of the 1,964 50th Anniversary Ford Mustangs is hard as a civilian? Imagine how tough it might be for the Mustang fanatics in our nation's military. Perhaps recognizing this fact, Ford Emerging Market Services and the Overseas Military Sales Corporation (the only Ford-authorized retailer on the military's bases) ran a raffle, with the winners receiving the opportunity to purchase one of the limited-edition muscle cars. Ford EMS and OMS received 300 entries to the raffle, although with only eight 50th Anniversary Stangs to hand out, we imagine there were quite a lot of disappointed soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. "We are pleased to offer limited-edition anniversary Mustangs to members of our military through our Military Appreciation Program, and we are delighted at the response it's receiving," Doug Walczak, EMS' fleet sales manager, said. The first Mustang was delivered to Army Maj. Del Boyer, shown above. While Maj. Boyer took delivery in New York, the raffle was open to servicemembers both at home and abroad.
