This is a beautifully restored 1928 roadster pick up. This is all steel body, not the repro cab, the original cab. There are alot of powder coated parts. The black is OEM, Its just a shade under the real shinny black. I payed close attention to every little detail on the car. The body and paint was done professionally. The rear end was disassembled and parts that were needed were replaced. Also the transmission was gone through as well as the brakes. The radiator was re cored . Tires have a little over 2,500 miles on them. The king pins and front wheel bearings are also new. The steering column was not taken apart and is a 1930/31. The engine was purchased from a friend, cant say exactly how many miles is on it, he thought it had over 10,000 after an engine re builder in Ashland, Oregon went through it. It runs,and shifts good. The engine doesnt use oil and doesnt heat up on the hottest of days.The brakes work real good considering they are the original style mechanical brakes. The top bows are original, the top is a LE Barron Boney. The back window center rolls up for nice cooling in the summer.The seat and door panels are the original style and color. The seat has had extra padding installed for more comfort. The lights all work,it has a drum tail light in the rear and fluted head light lens.The dog rode in the car and put a few small scratches on the seat. I didnt build this car to sell it, but do to unfortunate circumstances I am selling it.If you like the pictures, the pick up is even more attractive when seen in person. If sold out of the state of Oregon I would like to keep the 1928 license plates. If you would like to drive and inspect the pick up you are welcome to.The vehicle is sold in as is condition. I would like $200.00 deposited in PAY PAL very shortly after end of auction. Within 7 days after end of auction, I would like a check sent to me for the balance of the amount. When the check clears the car can be picked up.Also I will store the car for you for a month or possibly longer after auction. If you would like more information, call me at 541 899 7176. Also I can give you a number of a reputable model a engine re builder in this area who rode in and looked the car over. Please dont bid unless you are serious. Buyer is responsable for shipping.Thanks.

McLaren, Koenigsegg, Toyota, Ford, Dodge and Corvette Lego kits announced for 2021
Tue, May 4 2021Lego has announced a slew of car-themed sets for 2021. The six kits comprise nine vehicles and fall under the brick pusher's Speed Champion line of official OEM-licensed kits. News of their arrival comes from German toy retailer JB Spielwaren's pre-order listings, which show three single-car sets and three dual-car sets of matched marques. Starting with the McLaren Elva roadster, the kit consists of 263 pieces and is finished in blue. It seems to have a difficult time capturing the curves of the real-life Elva, but there's only so much you can do with a bunch of plastic blocks. Lego has made several other McLaren kits before, including the Senna, 720S, and a more advanced Senna GTR for the Technics line. Next up is the Koenigsegg Jesko, made up of 280 pieces and finished in white. Though the real-life Jesko is still curvy, this kit does a better job of replicating its aggressive maw, vents and cantilevered rear wing. Rounding out the single-car sets is the 299-piece Toyota GR Supra in yellow. This marks the first time Toyota has lent their license to Lego. Again, it struggles a bit to represent the curvy Supra, relying on printed details like logos and headlights to identify. On the other hand, the Chevrolet two-car does a stupendous job with the 1968 Corvette. The C3 is instantly recognizable as such. The C8-R race car it's paired with suffers from the same issues as some of the previous cars, though. The set contains 512 pieces, and funnily enough the C8 driver has short hair while the C3 driver sports a period-correct wavy mane. The next set is a 627-piece Mopar-themed pair, including a purple (Plum Crazy?) 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A and an SRT top fuel dragster. The race car is spot on, but the Challenger was probably tough to make given the width restrictions. It looks a couple of pegs too narrow compared to the wide proportions of the real deal. Last but not least, the Ford set contains a Bronco R and Ford GT Heritage Edition. Consisting of 660 pieces, the set does an excellent job of representing both cars. The GT looks faithful in its Gulf livery, and the Bronco R looks more like a real Bronco than the actual Bronco R race truck. All in all, it's always fun to see more Lego sets with real cars, and we're glad to see more manufacturers added to the roster. The single-car sets are recommended for ages 7 and up, while the double-car sets have an 8 years and up rating. Price in U.S.
Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]
Mon, 08 Jul 2013It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.
