You are bidding on a 1926 Ford Chopped Hot Rod / Rat Rod w Rebuilt Chevy 350 Motor (Model T). The car has a rebuilt Chevy 350 Motor 30 overbore w/ a bigger cam w/ about 100 hours on it, a rebuilt turbo 350 transmission, Ford 9 inch rear end, tunnel ram intake w/ dual Etolebrock 500 carburetors, MFB Electronic Ignition, and Aluminum radiator w/ built in trans cooler. I've done a lot of work on the car and she still has a little bit more to go, but is a great start for anyone looking to turn her into a full blown Hot Rod! Car runs, drives, and stops fine! Back tires are like new, front tires are a little bit older but still work great. Lead black matte paint is clean w/ "Lanchester" (Bride of Frakenstein) logo on the side. Work that still needs to be done/ improvements that could be made are: needs to be fine tuned, interior needs to be completed, I put a low car trans dip stick in it which doesn't quite feel properly on the trans (causes small leak, but not coming from the case), for the best performance you can put a regular intake with a single four barrel carb to get the best off the line torque (but the tunnel ram with the dual quads just looks awesome and the car STILL RIPS!) and although I put the small MSP distributer in it, it's very close to the firewall so when I stop on the gas when the motor torques it comes a little bit out of timing (taking a small portion out of the firewall I would recommend). Buyer handles pick-up or delivery of car. Message me with any questions and thanks for looking.

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated
Mon, 02 Dec 2013Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.
Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation
Sat, 09 Aug 2014
The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
