1931 Model A Ford Rat Rod Truck
This extended cab truck was custom fabricated by Image 803 Customs in Pelion, South Carolina. The cab started as a 1931 model A 4 door car and was modified to an extended cab truck, you can see the before and after in the pictures. Everything on this truck is brand new except the cab which is an original 1931 model A. The frame was custom build from scratch by Image 803 and features speed holes in the front frame rails and has been primed and painted brown. The interior of the cab was completely replaced with 1X1 steel tubing and a new sheet metal floor and tunnel. The truck also has an Image 803 custom wood top (which is patterned right after the original top) and cloth cover with snaps. It has a 4 inch drop front axle with Wilwood disc brakes and new Coker white wall tires. The rear end of the truck is from an 02 ford explorer and has positive traction and disc brakes. The truck has air ride on the rear with a Vivair compressor and 4 gallon tank, along with a set of train horns mounted under the wood bed floor. The floor actually lifts up like a hood showing all the air ride, valves, battery and aluminum fuel cell. There are 4 valves on the truck, two per air bag for maximum control and leveling. The truck has HID lights custom built into the original 1931 car light buckets. The motor in the truck was built by Johnson Machine Engines in Johnson SC and is a built SBC 350 (Mother Thumper Cam and flat top pistons) with turbo 400 transmission (Lokar shifter). The engine has a Weiand tunnel ram on it with 2 Holley 450 Carbs and the exhaust is a set of Sanderson Zoomies. The quad gage in the truck is an Auto Meter. As you can see no expense was spared for this truck. The truck runs and drives great and has about 1000 miles on it with a clear title. This is a custom one of a kind rat rod...... Bad A$$ machine. I buy and sell rat rods all over the US and this is one of the most well built machines I've had..... Bobby 817-907-2881 |

Mustang Cobra Jet prototype garners $200k for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Wed, 02 Oct 2013A few weeks ago we brought you news of a one-off Mustang Cobra Jet that Ford was donating to charity. The car was set to be auctioned off by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Now that auction has taken place, bringing in an impressive $200,000 for MS research.
That's a lot of zeros for a Mustang, much less one you can't even drive on the street. But the unique pony car, bearing serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1, packs a 5.0-liter supercharged V8, competition gearbox, wheelie bar, roll cage... all you could want, in short, in a turn-key drag racer. And all that for a good cause.
Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
