Beautiful, One Of A Kind Ford Model A Roadster on 2040-cars
Denver, Colorado, United States
The car has been gone through within six months by a mechanic, had all the fluids replaced, brakes fixed, transmission and engine gone through, and is top working condition. A few differences about the car from a stock model is, the head lights and hood are from a Cord L-29 special. The original model A engine has been replaced with a model B engine which can hit speeds up to 55 mph. This was done so it could be driven in the city or highway. The gas tank has been moved to the back, with a fuel pump added to it. This is in pristine condition and this car makes a statement for anyone who owns it. Please be aware, this vehicle uses leaded gasoline. The wheels are off of a 1935 model, and it has a 6 volt alternator instead of a generator. Runs great, no leaks.
This car was originally purchased by my grandfather in the 1970'S. He has acquired all parts through a life long process and passion he had. After he passed away, he left it to me, and I have had it garage kept for 6 years, and have never driven it myself, due to the fact I'm 6'3" and cant fit in it properly. So be advised, it does not suit a person over 6 ft comfortably. The headlights have authenticity plates on them, so you know they are not reproduction. The lights themselves, took him 15 years for him to find. Payment must be made via wire transfer, and buyer is responsible for picking it up and or shipping it. The vehicle is located in Denver Colorado. The total mileage on the vehicle is unknown, the Model B engine was installed ten years ago, and less than 2000 miles has been put on it since, runs great. Its been kept in a heated garage.

2015 Ford Mustang GT [w/video]
Fri, 19 Sep 2014At 50 years old, the object of fantasies, a tuner's dream, a movie star and more than nine million strong, it couldn't be truer to say that the Ford Mustang needs no introduction. This newest Mustang, however - making the biggest changes we've seen to the pony car since perhaps 1964.5 - is something Ford has been introducing all year.
We went on a Deep Dive, covered the way it looks when it was revealed, detailed the engine specs, got a ride in the EcoBoost and listened to the V8, got rolling footage and watched it do a standard-feature burnout.
The only thing left to do? Drive it. Having now done so for a few hours around Los Angeles, what we can tell you is to forget everything you know about the Mustang. This new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment.
Ford pranks unsuspecting blind dates with Mustang GT and stunt driver
Thu, Feb 12 2015There's 'speed dating,' that ludicrous get-to-know-you ritual devised by The Inquisition of Mating, and then there's 'dating at ludicrous speed,' which is a better description of what Ford has done in this latest video for the 2015 Mustang GT for your Valentine's Day enjoyment. The Blue Oval used a professional stunt driver to hook six guys into going on a little car trip, but the setup is the key – she pretends she's not that good at driving, until she's really good at it. You can check it out above. Kudos to the guy who goes from "You might want to shift again" to "That's what I'm talking about!" without any question. And the ninja.
Jay Leno drives postcard-perfect '32 Ford Highboy Roadster
Mon, 25 Aug 2014At the turn of the century, it was arguably the Honda Civic that best defined inexpensive performance tuning, and in the '50s it was the Tri-5 Chevys. One of the earliest platforms to gain a huge following among young people looking for a cheap way to go fast was the classic '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. This week, Jay Leno's Garage looks at one of the very first vehicles that defined the look of the hot rod heyday.
This '32 Ford was built in the '40s and graced the cover of the fourth issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in 1948. All of the hot rods that you see shining at car shows today owe a serious debt of gratitude to this roadster. It bears all of the cues that define the look, including a notched frame and hidden door hinges. Under the three-piece hood is a flathead V8 boasting all sorts of period modifications, including copper cylinder heads. It was seriously fast in its era too, and proved it by reaching 112.21 miles per hour on a dry lakebed in 1947.
These days, this hot rod is on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Although, if you can't make it to California to see it, the United States Postal Service is celebrating this Ford with one of its two hot rod Forever stamps. Like Jay says in the video, in terms of hot rodding, "it all comes back to this." Check out the video to learn more about this rolling piece of tuning history.
