How about a nice, dependable street rod roadster pickup that gets back to basics?!? This is an original all metal truck, (with the exception of the drivers rear fender and removable upper hood section), that is about as basic as it gets! Basic Hot Rod Black, (semi gloss enamel) paint, that you don't have to worry about chips, scuffs, bugs or dust. Just a quick wipe down, or touch up with a Sharpie when you do spot a chip! No windows, no radio, heater or any power robbing accessories! (About the only accessory on the interior of this truck is the drivers side only wiper arm, which still requires you to operate it manually, and uses no power!)  This truck comes equipped with a fresh 305 V-8 Chevy engine equipped with a tri-power set up, some additional chrome goodies, an automatic transmission and a Ford 8" rear end held in place with trailing arms, adjustable Aldan coil over shocks and a panhard rod. Block hugger headers on the engine, with full exhaust back to a pair of Smitty style mufflers to tail pipes that exit out the back just below the tail gate.  The frame was supplied by Speedway motors, so no problems with a rusty, repaired, who knows how many times, frame. The front end has a dropped Speedway motors front axle with hairpin radius arms, with front disc brakes, rear drums, along with a Vega manual steering gear and a tilt column. Topping the column is a Speedway motors steering wheel that connects to the iconic 'Aoogah' horn.  The Spartan interior includes a compliment of gauges in the center dash, as well as  a Lokar floor shifter. The interior is done in a red and white tuck and roll style as well as red carpeting and a custom floor mat made of the same material. The seat back is removable with the back of the cab being padded and upholstered so that a tall person with longer legs can comfortably sit in the cab. These older Model A's seem to have been made for somewhat shorter people in the day! But I can still get my 6'2 265 lb. body in and out of the cab and still be somewhat comfortable! But I do look forward to getting out of the cab to fill up the 7 gallon aluminum fuel tank located in the bed atop the chrome diamond plate panel which replaces the original wood bed and looks quite nice. Big and little steel, two-tone painted wheels with trim rings and baby moon center caps, and BFGoodrich tires all around. 195-60-15 tires on the front and 275-60-15 tires on the rear. I do carry a nice compact spare, with jack and handle with me when going on a run out of town! (And an extra gallon of gas in the bed just in case!) Truck has a fully removable and folding convertible top that is in excellent condition.  If you're looking for a nice Model A pickup street rod to just be able to take out and have fun with, and not worry about bugs, dirt or rain this just might be the truck you have been looking for!

Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.

Recharge Wrap-up: Grimsel electric car breaks acceleration world record, electric Ford Raptor ATV debuts

Sun, Nov 16 2014

An all-electric version of the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is now available... as an ATV. Made by Caddyshack Golf Cars, it features officially licensed Ford badging borrowed from the super-macho pickup. It has a lifted chassis with leaf springs in the front and rear, hydraulic shocks and off-road tires. Powered by a 48-volt motor, it can do 0-25 mph in 2.9 seconds. Range is an estimated 30 miles - plenty to get you through 18 of the most rugged holes of golf you've ever played. Caddyshack also offers other miniature electric Fords, including a Shelby GT500, Shelby Cobra and 50th Anniversary Mustang. Read more at Green Car Reports. Lexus takes a crack at the BMW i3 in a new video from Funny or Die. In the decidedly anti-EV film, a group of guys drives to Las Vegas for a "dad-chelor party" in a Lexus CT 200h and a BMW i3. The Lexus hybrid makes it to Sin City without any problems, while the BMW's occupants need to make several lengthy stops to charge along the way, missing much of the fun. The video lampoons the inherent range limitations of the EV (the BMW group ends up driving slowly through the desert with no AC or radio to save energy), all in a well produced, if somewhat misguided, short comedy film. Perhaps they should have considered the i3 with a range extender? See the video below, or read more at Green Car Reports. Students from ETH Zurich and Lucerne University have set a new EV acceleration world record. Their "Grimsel" racing car was able to zoom from 0-100 kph (0-62.137 mph) in just 1.785 seconds in less than 30 meters (98.425 feet), crushing the previous record of 2.134 seconds. Even more impressive is that the Grimsel was built by the students themselves, as part of the Formula Student team at the Academic Motorsports Club Zurich. The car weighs just 370 pounds and provides 200 horsepower and 1,202 pound feet of torque from the four hub motors. The Grimsel uses traction control to manage torque for maximum acceleration. See the record acceleration run in the videos below or read more at Gizmag, at Electric Autosport or in the press release from ETH Zurich below. 'grimsel' breaks world record The 'grimsel' electric racing car today broke the previous world record for acceleration in electric cars. The vehicle accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.785 seconds in under 30 metres. The new record was set by students from ETH Zurich and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, who also designed and built the vehicle.

Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
