1929 Ford Model A Phaeton
This is a survivor with a cool story behind it.

This 29 phaeton was purchased from a 88 yr old man back in 2004. He bought the car in 1953 and drove it home to his garage building where he parked the car inside. From there the car sat inside this building from 1953 until 2004 when my dad purchased it. The old man had began to tear the phaeton down with plans of restoring it but didn't get very far on it. The red paint that is on this car was on it in 53 when the old man bought it and the body on this car is very solid. The fenders and aprons were painted satin black. The only rust in this car is at the very back and it is hardly even worth mentioning it. I tried to snap a few pictures of it so you can see. 

The chassis on this car has been boxed fully from front to back. It has a new super bell 4'' drop axle with a posies reversed eye spring. It has uni-steer rack and pinion steering. The rear of the car has a 9'' ford rear end from a 68 bronco with a triangulated 4-link setup and QA1 coilovers. It also has 6 brand new tires on it. Under the hood you will find a walker radiator and a 305 small block chevy with a 4 barrel carb backed by a 700r transmission. On the inside it has red and black rolled and pleated vinyl with a 23'' tall lokar floor shifter. It also has a ididit tilt steering column and a dolphin gauge setup. The car has a new top and side curtains but they could use some work for a better fit. This car runs and drives great and cruises out on interstate at 70+ with no problems while getting 20+ mpg. It has had a little over 1100 miles put on it since being completed. This car is all original henry ford steel and you will not find one that is more solid or has a better body.  I am sure we I have left out a few things but if you have any questions please call my dad at 828-217-0799 it is his car. We have a clean and clear NC title for the car in his name. This car is sold as is where is with no warranties written or implied.

Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"

Ford reveals Fiesta ST race car, points at road ahead for bigger things in Global RallyCross

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST doesn't go on sale until this summer, but fans of Global RallyCross will be able to catch the car in action before then. Announced ahead of the Chicago Auto Show, the Fiesta ST will be the car run by Ford GRC teams this season, and the model on display in Chicago will be the racecar built by Swedish tuner OlsbergsMSE driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan. Ken Block and his newly renamed Hoonigan Racing Division will also be competing in the Fiesta ST.
The 2013 GRC season has not been announced yet, but the venues will also include the summer X Games events in Brazil, Spain, Germany and, of course, Los Angeles. Ford announced that it will be the sole automotive sponsor of this year's summer X Games, and it will be looking to bring home a gold medal this year after Block placed silver last year.
In other Ken Block- and Ford-related news, another Chicago debut will be a tuned Focus ST called the TrackSTer project. Built in cooperation with Block, Ford and automotive tuner fifteen52, the TrackSTer will get plenty of styling, performance and handling upgrades. Some of the add-ons include a performance exhaust and short-throw shifter from Ford Racing, a rebuilt engine, upgraded components such as the limited-slip differential, intercooler, engine controller and clutch as well as upgraded brakes.
