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.

THIS VEHICLE IS SOLD AS-IS NO WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES ALL SALES ARE FINAL SO, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK ME BEFORE YOU BID.
PLEASE REMEMBER BUYER IS FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING AND/OR COLLECTION OF THIS VEHICLE. I WILL HELP WHERE POSSIBLE.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.
