I bought this car about two years ago in Louisiana and started gathering parts to put it together, it has now sat for a long time and doesn't seem to be moving. I could use the money elsewhere, so I am putting it out there to see if someone else can finish it off and enjoy. When I got the car, it came with tons of parts, all of which are laid out on the ground in the pics, MANY are brand new in packages, like a new dove radiator cap, new windshield wiper motor, new door handles, new body felt, new bumperettes, new rear view mirror, new handles for the rumble seat, new bumper steps for the rumble seat, new gauge bezel, and tons of other parts. All of the wood is there and in good shape. The seats that are in it are in good shape as well and could be used without changing the covers (if you like blue). I had a new frame built by Jim Weimer Rod Garage in Wisconsin and also ordered a four link kit from JWG, both seen in pics (still have the paperwork from Jim Weimer Garage). The frame is based on 32' rails, but they kick in at the back to accomodate a factory model a floor (this frame is seen on Jim Weimer's site). The floor on this car is nice with no rust or modifications and it would be a shame to cut it up to fit the rear of a 32 frame in it. I bought some other parts (engine, trans, blower, etc., that I am selling separately). I hate to sell the body, as it is the most solid Model A body I have ever seen. There is one small hole about the size of a pea onteh left quarter, and have a patch panel for it, although it just needs filling, I would not use a patch panel (came with car when I got it). The chop of the roof was done nicely and only need to be ground down and paint prepped. If you are looking to build one hell of a nice Model A without having to do tons of body work and rust replacement, this is it! The pictures show most everything I can think of, but it would be easiest to just give me a call and I can describe the car in full detail and answer any questions you have.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

Ken Block rally cars go blue in the face (and everywhere else)
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Well at least we now know why Ken Block "just ain't care" about smashing up his Ford Fiesta rally car recently. It's because he's getting a full brand makeover including a new team name, new paint scheme and even a new headquarters. Formerly known as Monster World Rally Team, Block and his Fiesta will now be competing under the Hoonigan Racing Division name, which is based out of a new 12,000 square foot facility located in Park City, UT.
As you can tell in the image above, Hoonigan Racing will replace the familiar black, white and green paint scheme with a more colorful design featuring plenty of blue, purple and red; the Monster Energy logo retains some of the car's green. The new paint scheme was inspired by Block's love of skateboard graphics from the '80s and early '90s as well as "Miami Vice-era" speedboats.
Block will continue to compete in multiple rally racing series such as Global RallyCross, World Rally Championship and X Games. The new headquarters features office space on one side and a shop for the cars on the other side. The building features plenty of stuff you'd expect from a company designed around Ken Block, including a massive gaming station for racing video games, recycled shipping containers used throughout the facility and a black bear.
