1929 Ford Model A Coupe, Built by Misfitskinnykustoms. This intire car with exception of the coupe body has been hand made and is 1 off. Car has been chopped, channeled, z framed w/ suicide front end, dash grill bezel, interior, floors, top, suspension, linkage etc... Sits on an air ride suspension in the rear and sits on the ground { SLAMMED} The seats are 1 off hand tooled leather. The motor is chevy v 8 305 and came out an 87 Camaro. Has chevy turbo transmission w/ a ford rear end. Brand new model A radiator set up with a chevy configuration. Car started off as a chevy and was going to be a 64 truck body, got an opportunity to get a ford coupe body and then went from there and this is how it ended up. So the car still has the chevy title. Car runs and drives good but was built as a show car mainly. Car has been built very solid in Rat rod style, I woud say, but some may disagree. chopped 3 1/2 in top channeled 3 1/2 in floor to lay frame. custom suiced front end and has a z'd frame in the rear for the air bags. You can see more pictures of car at Misfitskinnykustoms.com If you are interested in the car and would like more info on it please feel free to call or text me at 317-610-1629 Thanks for looking
Also don't know if you can tell from photos, but this hole car has been custom painted in different shades of copper. The car was named Model - A - Braham
Also I have had few people contact me asking about interior and few other things. The interior is made by me and is top grade veg tan leather all the images have been pounded into the leather and then stained with leather dye and sealed so will not ware or fade. Also the bar coming off steering column is half of an ape hanger I made that has controls for your turn signals and high and low headlight beams. This car is also all steel there is no bondo or fiberglass. I left a lot of place on car where you can see where I have welded together. There are a few rough places on body that could have been patched up with bondo but I felt that those spots added character to the car and what it had been through since 1929. Everyone that has seen it in real has liked that about it and says car has alot of character. There are way to many details for me to list about this vehicle that have not been listed and I am not a vary good writer, I am a builder and this is what I do for a living. So if you have any questions at all or would like to make a reasonable offer please feel free to call or text me, my name is Fred the # is 317-610-1629 You can watch this video to get full description of car http://youtu.be/PPVjT0TnXyg

Ford mulling EcoSport for US? [w/poll]
Mon, 03 Jun 2013"We certainly have that ability. We're studying it very, very closely." Those are the words of Jim Farley, global head of sales, marketing, service at Ford. The investigation Farley is referring to is the possibility of selling the company's new EcoSport crossover in America.
The diminutive Fiesta-based EcoSport was developed for emerging markets like Brazil and, more recently, China, but it apparently may have a future in the States, where it would form a new entry-level rung below the Escape in Ford's already robust crossover stable. Ford has big plans for its tiny CUV - Farley tells Automotive News that the EcoSport is only available in 10 countries right now, but by 2017, its distribution will have mushroomed to 62 countries. At the time the second-generation model launched at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show as a 2013 model, Ford said the EcoSport would eventually be sold in nearly 100 markets worldwide.
The Brazilian- and Indian-assembled EcoSport is available with a variety of gasoline-powered engines, but the 1.0-liter, three-cylinder EcoBoost giving 118 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque would seem to be the powertrain of choice for America, as it was recently confirmed for the stateside 2014 Fiesta.
Carfection looks for the ultimate pocket rocket
Fri, Mar 18 2016If there's one thing we love, it's a good showdown. Especially when it's on video, done by some Englishmen, and involving some manner of performance machinery. Like this latest clip, for example, from Carfection. The team formerly known as Xcar have assembled three very compelling supermini hot hatches: two we can get on our side of the pond, and one we can't. One American, one Frenchman, and one Brit. One cheap, one expensive, and one somewhere in between. They all pack turbo fours, of course, but placed in entirely different packages. There's the evergreen favorite Ford Fiesta ST, the Renault Clio RS 220 Trophy that should have the rest licked, and the retro rocket that is the Mini JCW. And there's only one way to find out which is the best. It's a tough contest, to be sure, but lest you think it all comes down to specifications or which one's the newest, you'll want to think again. Because when it comes to hot hatches, all the electronic gizmos and power boosts in the world can't show up a perfectly dialed-in chassis that lets you hug the curves and feel like you're going a lot faster than you actually are. But don't take our word for it – see what our British friends have to say about it in the Queen's English in the seventeen-minute clip above. Related Video:
2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
