1930 Ford Model A Coupe Hot Rod ( Rat Rod) Automatic V8. We found this 1930 Ford Model A California built Hot Rod Hiding in a barn for the last 15 years in the Arizona Desert. We brought it back to the shop and showed it a little love swapping the wheels & tires for some classic 15" Steelies with 205/75 15 & 225/15 15 American Classic White Walls. We then turned the Ignition & fired the Chevy 350 right up! The original builders of this Hot Rod started with a very good,clean, solid Original steel body with very minimal rust (look at the lower body & inner door pics).Sprayed in a Period Correct Matte Gray with custom hand pinstriping the exterior is developing a nice patina as it starts to show its age. The Interior was also well done at the time with VDO Classic gauges,Tilt Steering Column,Lokar billet accessories,a very nice gray tweed upholstery & a Pioneer Super Tuner AM/FM Cassette Stereo installed(got to have some cool tunes in such a cool ride!)To make it fast they installed a Carter AFB Competition Carb on a Weiand Stealth intake manifold and to make it loud its exhausted through a set Hooker Super Competition Headers. The engine was dressed with an assortment of Lokar Billet accessories & Moroso Chrome Valve Covers.After a short drive we came to appreciate the long low stance of this Classic Model A Hot Rod as the ride is solid & the Automatic transmission means a more enjoyable drive to your local cruise night hangout.This 1930 Ford Model A will be seen on an upcoming episode of the hit show Fast N Loud and the winning bidder will have the option of taking delivery on the show! This is a good candidate for Advertising/Promotional use,a Classic Restoration( super solid body),Hot Rod/ Rat Rod build out(we left the way we found it so you can finish it the way you like!) or just drive it like it is until you decide.We sell Internationally as well as locally & will end the Auction when it sells. See all pics & ask any questions.

Ford Mustang 50th anniversary edition brings in $170k
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Just the other day, we reported on the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat selling for a whopping $825,000 at auction. But impressive as that sum was, the Challenger wasn't the only sought-after modern muscle car to cross the Barrett-Jackson auction block in Las Vegas this past weekend. So did this rare Ford Mustang.
The last of 1,964 special-edition 50 Years Limited Edition pony cars sold for a princely $170,000, with proceeds benefiting the Edith and Benson Ford Heart & Vascular Institute, a branch of the Henry Ford Health System.
The pony car in question is based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and upgrades with a performance package and nearly every option on the book, along with a unique appearance package to set it apart in celebration of the Mustang's 50th anniversary. It's available in two exclusive shades - Wimbledon white or Kona blue - with either a manual or automatic transmission. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples were to be built, and this was the last of them.
Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette
Wed, 17 Apr 2013We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.
