"El Lay Mae" "Moldy Marvin's" T&A This old girl has some history and a story to tell.. Currently Registered in the State of California (on a non op) | |
| Back in 2001 I found El Lay Mae at the L.A. Roadster Show, She was sitting all by herself in a corner at the swap meet.
I got her from dry lakes king Joe Moreno
| |
Here is a snap of her once I got her home.r once I got her home. | |
This is what she looked like after I had taken off all of the stickers and cleaned her up real good. |
| That there is the infamous John Parker cuttin' it up with the camera... The guy in the hat is the well known auto artist Kent Bash who included El Lay Mae and I in one of his paintings. This painting has been published in several magazine articles about Kent. |
John, Richard, & George usin' the El Lay Mae's trunk fer a dinner table. Bob's Big Boy 2001 So What the heck is she anyway ? Well she's got 1928 Rails, Truck Bed and 4 banger Mill... The Fiberglas 23 T bucket was put on her sometime in the early 60's cuz it's all hand laid ... the side pipes are active and serve two purposes (1) to make a bunch of noise and (2) to serve as nerf bars and extra support for that old t bucket...... The Brakes are Mechanical and she tops out between 45 and 50 MPH... | |
| In 2002 she won her first award at the Jewel City Kiwanis Car Show The Award is for First Place Special Interest. All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae |
2002 was also the first year that I started Racing El Lay Mae in the Antique Nationals . | |
Me and a Buddy of Mine Flintstone had a running bet of $ 1.00 every year when we raced side by side. His car was very much like El Lay Mae and he called his car Ebay Elly | Photo by Jack Butler 2003 Antique Nationals |
Flintstone Beat me every year that is until 2004.
| |
All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae | 2004 EL Lay Mae and I in the winners circle Antique Nationals.
She was the slowest Car on the track at 25.5 seconds. In our last eliminations we went up against a beautiful 14 second board track racer worth about $ 40,000.0, El Lay Mae was so consistent that day and we took Jim Macnair Award 1st Place in the 4 Banger Class!
I Love Bracket Racing! |
El Lay Mae Loves to go to El Mirage | El Lay Mae, myself and Joaquin Arnett of the Bean Bandits |
In the summer of 2004 we shot this Desert Drag Race Segment. You can watch the segment about 5 minutes into the movie. EL Lay Mae and Flintston's Ebay Elly.
El Lay Mae played the part of "Old Timer" (Voice by Alex Xydias) which was the first car in the movie to be interviewed. | The Movie Tales of the Ratfink took 6 years to produce, I worked on the film as a consultant to Ron Mann.

El Lay Mae Today | |
| Back in 2007 I swapped out El Lay Mae's mill with a 1930 4 banger because her original mill main seal went along with the babbit. | |
| The 1930 Mill still runs but it too now needs Babbit too so I haven't driven her for awhile now. | |
EL Lay Mae's Original Mill Comes with the Sale | |
I recently acquired this 1929 Mill with a B performance police head. This Mill comes with the Sale also. |
I started Cleaning it up because it is in pretty good condition. |
The Babbit is in great shape. | The concept was to take apart this most recent Mill tear it down and rebuild El Lay Mae's original Mill with the parts. |
| Other Fotos of El Lay Mae | |
| Even though El Lay Mae might need a little TLC today, she has been very good to me for many years now. She is a keeper for sure and as much as I would like to hang on to her I really need to sell her cuz I need the $$$! I'm really hoping that her new owner will feel the same way and treat her good for many more years of enjoyment!

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest
Tue, 01 Apr 2014New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).
Ram 1500 bests new F-150 in MT pickup shootout
Tue, Nov 25 2014Ford's 2015 Ford F-150 is a technological tour-de-force, what with its aluminum-intensive construction and its powerful and efficient new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine option. But now that it's hit the market, it's time to get down to brass tacks and find out how just the latest F-150 actually stands up to its rivals in the hyper-competitive fullsize segment. Motor Trend is among the first to round up the Ford (in Lariat 2.7-liter 4X4 guise here) and put it up against the Ram 1500 Outdoorsman EcoDiesel 4x4 and 5.3-liter-equipped Silverado 1500 LTZ Z71 to find out how Dearborn's new-think truck measures up. The test put the trio through over 1,000 miles of tough driving in California and Arizona in a variety of conditions from just cruising around unladen to hauling a trailer. MT found all three trucks to be competent, but the most praise got heaped on the Ram and the Ford, with the Chevrolet falling a step behind its competitors in many tests. Among the Ford's most-liked features was its 2.7-liter, twin-turbo V6 that helped make the F-150 easily the quickest of the group, with some editors saying the engine felt about the same whether driving around with cargo in the bed or not. There was some minor turbo lag during acceleration while trailering, but that issue affected the Ram, too. The Ram's powertrain was lauded, as well. The EcoDiesel was torquey around town, and the 1500's combination of an eight-speed automatic and air suspension was judged to be the best of the lot. It was the most difficult to get into the bed, though. The Ram also won the fuel economy award by netting 20-miles-per-gallon city and 28-mpg highway in the test to beat its Environmental Protection Agency ratings of 19/27. The Ford's EcoBoost managed 17/22, one mpg off each from the EPA numbers, and using a lot of throttle really depleted its efficiency. As MT notes, however, it would take time for the diesel's mileage savings to pay off at the pump for these two trucks. In the end, the Ram just barely eked out the win, with the title partially earned because of "the Ford's unknown maintenance and aluminum repair costs," according to MT.

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:
