For sale is a 1918 Model T Ford Roadster. This is a beautiful T-bucket! My Father and I built it for him as his personal play toy but he does not drive it as much as it just sits. (He too busy driving his 1948 Ford Pickup) So he has asked me to sell it. No expense was spared on building a quality, safe car when we put this one together. Starting with the frame it is a custom built unit with all stainless or grade 8 hardware. The finish is not painted it is all powder coated! The frame, axle, hairpins, and all other components are powder coated gloss black. This looks great and will last sooo much longer than paint! The wheels are vintage steel chrome with baby moons to give it nice nostalgic look and all are wrapped in new rubber. The braking system is a dual master cylinder with Airheart 4 piston discs in front and new 9 inch drums in the rear. Stops on a dime! The steering system is a new Vega box (not rebuilt) and steers wonderful. The rear axle is a 9 inch Ford with new gears and will cruise on the highway without wrapping up. New custom made balanced drive shaft. The transmission is a 350 Turbo unit that was taken to the bare case and rebuilt end to end. The Engine on this car is a NEW 350 Chevrolet engine. The edelbrock intake was also powder coated black and a new edelbrock 4 barrel carb added. The exhaust are Sanderson zoomies with baffles to be loud enough to thrill but not so loud you dont enjoy the ride. Custom aluminium radiator and steel grill shell painted gloss black. The Body is a California Custom fiberglass unit with an opening passenger door for easy entry and exit. Much better than having to climb onto the rear tire!! The Body itself was sanded and smoothed, primed and blocked again and the painted and buffed with a beautiful gloss black. The interior is a harley davidson grain vinal inside and on the bed cover. The battery and gas tank are inside the bed with room for a car show chair or two left over. Powder coated gas tank as well. All new wiring including fuse panel and all switches and lighting components. Third brake light on the back for safety. The windshield frame is a new chrome unit and tinted safety glass installed. The firewall is also a powder coated piece of aluminium for extra protection and wear! The car was given a Black Widow spider theme with the stencil on the radiator and red hourglass on the rear differential. I have tried to tell all I could remember about this car but if you have any questions please feel free to email me and I will answer right away. This is not your typical old T-Bucket but a true thing of beauty that I hope someone will get many years of pleasure out of. The reserve on this car is very fair for what the vehicle is and really the buy it now is a bargain as well! Please look and if you want to come see and test drive the car we encourage you to do so! Please do not bid unless you plan to buy the car, we are open about it and want you to be happy so if you need to see it first come look! Thanks for your interest and happy bidding!!

Lexus gets top brand marks from Consumer Reports; Ford, Jeep hit hard
Tue, 25 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has released its 2014 Car Brand Report Cards, with Lexus again reigning at the top and doing so with the same industry-topping score of 79 that it registered in last year's Report Cards. This year, the institute credited its lineup for being "usually quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient," noting it's the only brand on the list "to achieve an excellent average overall reliability score." The Car Brand Report Cars list is meant to rank the best all-around vehicles based on CR testing and reliability results tallied by subscribers it surveyed. Each brand included must have sufficient test and reliability data for at least three models, a standard which left out 11 marques including Fiat, Jaguar, Land Rover and Porsche.
This 2014 Brand Report Cars edition is the first of a new format in which sub-brands have been broken out from their parent brands, with Acura using this year to move up the leaderboard into second place with a score of 75 for its "reliable, well-finished and somewhat sporty models." The top three was rounded out by Audi, climbing from eighth to third by scoring a 74 for "well-crafted interiors, nice handling and good gas mileage." Audi scored highest in the road-test portion, its improved reliability aiding its rise. The top nine was completed by Subaru, Toyota, Mazda, Honda, Infiniti and Mercedes-Benz.
Ford and Jeep weighed in at the other end of the rankings, Jeep taking the lowest overall score in the road tests and hampered by "a mix of spotty reliability." Ford was sunk by reliability issues with its MyFord Touch infotainment system which consumers found troublesome enough to negate its cars earning "solid test scores" for being "very nice to drive." Perhaps the rumored switch from Microsoft to Blackberry's QNX for the next generation SYNC will help them out. Cadillac's score also took a hit for infotainment reasons after it was the leading US brand last year, the CUE system in the XTS dragging Cadillac to the bottom of all General Motors brands.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is not so mellow in yellow
Tue, 14 Jan 2014When we first saw the 2015 Ford Mustang, much was made of its new, more expressive color palette, which includes the return of both yellow and orange in addition to a new grayish shade, Guard. At that time, we didn't have anything to look at but a few small scale models painted in the new colors - the only Mustangs on display were in Race Red.
For its auto show debut here at in the Motor City, Ford has trotted out a couple of as-yet-unseen shades, including the striking Triple Yellow shown above. The new shade marks a return to a paint color that enthusiasts have been clamoring for, and we must say, it looks excellent under the lights of Cobo Hall.
Stat wise, there are still a number of questions we have about the redesigned Mustang. None of the three engines have had official power figures published. The same goes for pricing information, although if any loose-lipped execs let something slip in Detroit, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, have a look at the new Triple Yellow Mustang on display at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings
Mon, 29 Sep 2014While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.
