The last buyer could not come up with the funds so I'm relisting. If you are looking for a ratrod that you can just jump in and enjoy, here it is! This rod gets a lot of attention so be ready! It has won many awards at local car shows and is a ton of fun to cruise. It runs and drives great! This car is a ratrod so the body is not smooth, shiny, or perfect. Here are some of the details
Motor and tranny: SBC with T-350 tranny with shiftkit, electric fan, zoomie style headers, gear drive,mild cam, powder -coated tunnel ram with Holleys, exhaust ignitors, engine does not leak or smoke
Frame, Body, and the Rest: 12" Z in rear, 6" Z in front, built from 3x2 rec tube, removeable tranny crossmember, driveshaft loop, 4 link adjustable, chrome coil over shocks, adjustable tubular Mustang II front end, all adjustable tubular control arms, rack and pinion steering, Ford 9" rear end with 308 gears, steel body with some filler in usual spots, body is not shiny and perfect which is the ratrod look I was going for, flat black paint (not primer) with white scallops, chrome reverse steelie rims, white custom interior trimmed in green/gold metal flake just like the frame, medical grade glass on sides and rear, new window regulators, door handles, and window felt.
The car does need a new rear tire, and the brakes may need bled every once in a while. Other than that this car just needs to be driven!
ABSOLUTELY NO TRADES! We have enough toys and a new little boy so trades are not an option. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
Ford is building this sweet back-to-basics SUV in Brazil
Mon, 02 Jun 2014We're use to forbidden fruit teasing us in Europe. Hatchbacks and diesels from Renault, Citroën, Peugeot, Skoda, SEAT and Alfa Romeo have been a regular torment that we've grown accustomed to over the years. This vehicle, though, is one piece of forbidden fruit we aren't entirely sure we can get over. We need it.
It's called the Ford Troller T4, and if you accidentally read that as either "reborn Ford Bronco" or "Americanized Land Rover Defender," we wouldn't be rushing to correct you. It's a basic, badass SUV, and is the first new vehicle to come from Troller since Ford gobbled it up in 2007. For those with longer memories, you'll recognize this vehicle from the concept that preceded it, the Ford T-R Concept. The production model remains remarkably true to the T-R, as well as past Trollers, but it's a slightly more modern look overall, with LED taillights, contrasting colors
You'll have to bear with us on the details, as we've been forced to rely on the notoriously literal Google Translate to convert the original Portuguese into English, which means some of the details were lost along the way.
2015 Ford C-Max gets a corporate nose job [w/video]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Ford might not have the splashiest booth here at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, but the automaker is showing off quite a bit of hardware that will actually end up on roads across Europe. Parisians are no doubt tickled at getting to see the specifications of the Mustang tuned for The Continent (which has a revised suspension for European roads, and a few visual nips and tucks), in addition to the revised face of the family-friendly C-Max.
As you can see, C-Max styling has been revisited with a deft touch, grafting Ford's six-sided corporate grille on the nose, in place of the outgoing car's two-part affair. New headlights can also be found on the car's revised front fascia, though the rear end of the C-Max looks only slightly different than the current version.
Inside the cabin, Ford has consolidated controls and upped the ante in terms of material quality, with "black satin" and chrome details and more storage capacity, overall. Grocery-lugging moms and dads everywhere should appreciate the hands-free liftgate feature, as well.
