1930 FORD MODEL A ROADSTER: All original stock, steel, straight body & frame in very good restorable condition. Clean title for Sale by Owner. NO dents, NO damage. Small exterior spot of rust (See Photo) on bottom of outer passenger-side door, otherwise, no other rust that I can see. This roadster has the original stock motor and 3 speed manual transmission. The tires & spoked rims are in good condition though it does not have the 5th (spare) 15" wheel. It has all new wiring, headlights, amp & fuel gauges, new working alternator, which has been swapped to 12V, and battery. Wishbones & rear frame are all good and there are NO weldings. It has recently been completely lubed and is in good working & running condition. Paint & interior are original. Interior is pretty much shot, although the floor board has been replaced, and only really needs paint & interior. Assembly for convertable top may not be correct for this car. It is currently not connected to the front window frame, which is normally put down to better accomodate the car cover, and is how it came when we bought it from the previous owner.
SOME HISTORY ON THE CAR: My dad bought it from a private party in El Monte, CA in 1998 and was intended as a project car for restoration. Because he's had others to work on, it had been in storage at his shop in El Monte until about 2 years ago when it was taken along with some other cars to Mississippi, where my parents are moving to, and was stored in their warehouse. Since they could really use the money for their move & health conditions forces sale ASAP, he brought it back to CA. sometime last year when he decided to put it up for sale and it's been covered up in our driveway, while some work (which is noted in the listing) was done on it to get it up and running to sell.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: We will accept International Buyers and have shipped other cars Worldwide. Buyer is responsible for making shipping arrangements and payment. Will deliver up to 200-250 miles. from the Los Angeles/Glendale CA area for Local Buyers and will transport to the nearest shipping facility, which I believe is in Wilmington, CA, for International Buyers. For more info or to discuss transportation/delivery/pick up options, please use the eBay Ask Seller a Question option or contact HOLLEY at HOME 818-247-0340 or 818-549-1133 or CELL 818-216-7988. This great project Roadster just needs some cleaning up, paint & interior and is really in very good working & running condition.
NOTE: I do have some more photos available but, because I'm already at my limit of 24 in the listing, I can't add any more. If you would like to send me your email address I'd be happy to email them to you. Please let me know. Thanks very much for your interest. ; D

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas
Wed, 03 Apr 2013The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.

Hennessey unleashes 2015 HPE700 supercharged Ford Mustang
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Thanks to the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat there is a new magic number in the muscle car world - 707. To raise eyebrows these days in the power war, a vehicle needs to match or preferably exceed that palindromic figure. The tuners over at Hennessey took a look at it for their 2015 HPE700 Mustang and decided to go one better. Well, ten actually, because they bestowed their latest creation with 717 horsepower and 632 pound-feet of torque.
The HPE 700 Mustang takes the standard Mustang GT with its 5.0-liter V8 and turns up the power a few hundred notches with a Roots-type supercharger running at 7.25 psi. Hennessey claims that this boosted 'Stang can rocket to 60 miles per hour in about 3.6 seconds and cover the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds at 131 mph. For those keeping score at home, those figures are very similar to Challenger Hellcat.
To cope with all of the added boost, the engine gets a high-flow throttle body, upgraded injectors, new fuel pump, stainless steel exhaust and Hennessey's calibration for the engine management. Pricing for the package is $59,500, including the base 2015 Mustang GT, but the company is limiting production to 500 units for the 2015 model year. Founder John Hennessey told Autoblog that he has already received about a dozen orders for them.
