Up for sale is my '35 Ford Rat Rod truck. The body is all steel with a hand fabricated bed, all of the cab, hood, grill and radiator shell are original parts from this Washington state farm truck. The body has been chopped and channeled about 5" and the frame has been stretched about 6". That said, the truck is well sorted mechanically and drives very well, longer trips are not an issue. Windshield is fixed mounted with a functioning windshield wiper.
Drive train consists of a 355" SBC, stock rebuild with an HEI distributor and 650 Edelbrock carb. Trans is a TH350 with a Ford 8" rear and Torque Thrust II wheels.
Suspension is a dropped front end on coil-overs front and rear. Disk brakes on the front and drums rear. The bed interior is finished in wood, not the pretiest but it works fine, has a 12 gallon fuel cell and a taneu cover. The hood and two-piece hinged taneu both operate with hidden latch pulls.
Interior is pretty spartan, original dash with aluminum insert and aluminum door panels, Mustang II seats and Camaro steering column, CD player in the glove box with speaker boxes behind the seats, and some dynamat to cover the sheetmetal. All windows are good but it does need a new drivers side regulator, maybe $60. The window goes up and down but the regulator is stripped so the window will drop by gravity. I just leave it down.
Overall the truck is in very good shape, absolutely no rust, and straight body. The paint is garage sprayed with some imperfections, but looks good. Truck runs well, although the trans and diff have a leak and the SBC pushes some oil past two cyclinders. Looks like a simple valve seal so should be minor.
Truck is titled in California with a legit VIN number. Please ask all questions before bidding

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013



The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.

Toyota fears supplier pressure in Australia with GM pull out

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

With Ford and General Motors both announcing an end to production in Australia, the country's auto industry is in a bad way. With the exit of two big players, there's increased concern that a third Australian manufacturer, Toyota, will be forced out, as well.
"We are saddened to learn of GM Holden's decision. This will place unprecedented pressure on the local supplier network and our ability to build cars in Australia," Toyota Australia said in a statement. The GM closure of Holden production will be the direct end to 2,900 jobs, but will also force a dramatic reduction in the size of the country's supplier network, as there will simply be fewer cars to build.
In the same statement, Toyota Australia said it would work with suppliers and local government to figure out whether continuing production Down Under was even feasible. According to Automotive News, a representative for the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union told reporters it was "highly likely" that Toyota would also close up shop within the next few years.
