THIS IS A 1932 FORD LOWBOY. LOTS OF MONEY SPENT ON THIS BUILD. FIBERGLASS BODY WITH ROUND-TUBE CHASSIS - POSSIBLY BUILT BY SPEEDWAY. POWERED BY SMALL BLOCK CHEVY 350 CRATE ENGINE WITH DUAL QUAD - VERY MILD AND RELIABLE WITH LOTS OF TORQUE, THE CAR IS FITTED WITH A COMPLETE STAINLESS EXHAUST SYSTEM ALL THE WAY TO THE REAR OF THE CAR, 3 SPEED AUTO TRANS, FORD 9IN REAR SET UP WITH HIGHWAY GEARS WITH ELLIPTICAL REAR SPRINGS. THIS REAR HOUSING AND AXLE ASSEMBLY WAS PURCHASED FROM SPEEDWAY, NEW. THE FRONT HAS TRANSVERSE LEAF SPRING. THE CAR HAS 4 WHEEL DISC BRAKES, FULL INSTRUMENTATION, CD PLAYER AND A FINISHED INTERIOR AND TRUNK. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AND HAVE DRIVEN IT ON SEVERAL 4-500 MILE TRIPS WITH NO ISSUES. THERE IS A HOOD WITH THE CAR BUT IT NEEDS TO BE PAINTED AND FITTED. THE CAR HAS AMERICAN RACING TORQUE THRUST D WHEELS AND BFGOODRICH TIRES.
THIS CAR CAME TO ME ALREADY BUILT, THE ONLY THING THAT I CHANGED WAS THE REAR END HOUSING. WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR, IT HAD COME FROM AN INSURANCE AUCTION - THE LEFT REAR TIRE WAS FLAT AND THE REAR HOUSING WAS BENT. I SAW NO DAMAGE ANYWHERE ELSE. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THAT IT WAS A RUNNING CAR. I HAD THE REPAIRS MADE, THE CAR WAS INSPECTED AND WAS ISSUED A REBUILT FLORIDA TITLE. THIS CAR WAS BUILT IN CALIFORNIA AND THATS WHERE IT REMAINED UNTIL I PURCHASED IT.
THIS WAS A VERY PROFESSIONAL BUILD CALIFORNIA STYLE LOWBOY, FRAME AND SOME SUSPENSION PARTS WERE PAINTED BODY COLOR. THINGS LIKE STAINLESS EXHAUST AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL IN THE TRUNK AND INTERIOR ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT EVERYTHING INVOLVING THE BUILD MORE THAN LIKELY WAS PURCHASED NEW AT THE TIME OF ASSEMBLY.
THE ONE THING THAT I HAVE NEVER ADDRESSED IS THE BACK OF THE CAR HAS A SLIGHT LEAN TO THE LEFT - NOT SURE WHY. BUT I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT OVER 100 MPH SEVERAL TIMES AND IT IS AS STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW. I HAVE SEVERAL HOTRODS AND COLLECTOR CARS IN MY COLLECTION AND THIS CAR HAS BEEN A LOT OF FUN. TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS.

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here
Fri, 07 Mar 2014A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.
Ford GT, Buick Avenir and Audi Q7 take 2015 EyesOn Design awards
Thu, Jan 15 2015The annual EyesOn Design Awards at the Detroit Auto Show allows some of the greatest designers in the world to weigh in on the best production and concept debuts at the big event each year. For 2015, the large panel of judges included luminaries like Frank Stephenson of McLaren, Ralph Gilles from FCA and Moray Callum of Ford. Apparently the editors at Autoblog had a good eye because the winner of 2015's Best Designed Production Vehicle award went to the Ford GT, which was also our favorite debut from the show. The new supercar beat the Acura NSX and Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe for the honor. The judges described the Blue Oval's shape as "capturing the original GT40 in a modern interpretation," according to EyesOn Design. The Buick Avenir was also a big winner in the awards this year and received the nods for both Best Designed Concept Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials. In the concept category, it beat out the Chevrolet Bolt and Mercedes-Benz F 015, and in the latter group, the sedan triumphed over Audi Q7, Mercedes F 015 and Volkswagen Cross Coupe GTE. The Q7 received its own accolade for Best Designed Interior, and it beat the Avenir and Infiniti Q60 for the honor. This year's Lifetime Design Achievement Award went to former Renault designer Patrick le Quement, and Bob Lutz received the EyesOn Design Catalyst Award for the second time. The honor is for an executive "who has empowered great design," according to the organization, which describes Lutz perfectly. Scroll down to read the announcement with more comments about the winners.
