1930 Ford Model A Street Rod. By first glance, it has a Rat Rod look. But at
closer examination, this classic has a ton of money put into it, with the best
of the best parts and accessories used in the build. If you want to ‘blend in’
in a crowd, this may not be the car for you! At any angle, the Model A just
looks ‘right’. Quintessential in every aspect! A Throwback to a much simpler
time, that all of us would like to go back to! The build began August, 2006. It
took about 3 years to complete. There is about 450 miles on the build of this
car since its completion. It is a Bruiser Body, from Lake Havasu City, AZ. The
unfinished “rolling Chassis” and body shipped to the door was $16,800 in 2006!
Keep that in mind-unfinished! Without Engine, Trans, Interior, gauges, etc!
What increases the cool factor of this Ford is the 401 V8 Buick Nailhead
engine, with the 3 x 2 Carburetors, connected to a brand new Tremec 5 speed
Manual Transmission. I am unsure to the horsepower rating, but it is quick!
Smoke the tires fast, and won’t hurt you at the pump… A great combination!
Below I have highlighted the Specs & NEW
parts used in the build: Bruiser Enterprises Reproduction 1929

I have a folder packed full of receipts to document the enormous investment put
forth to create this machine. Make no mistake, this car is the real deal that
will satisfy the fussiest buyer. It runs great! Straight down the road with no
shimmy or vibrations. With the small steering wheel, and rack and pinion
steering, makes this rod much easier to drive then you would think. And the distinct
sound of the Nailhead is just awesome. This is a tremendous opportunity to
acquire a turn key Street Rod and a fraction of the build cost, while not

take a look at my feedback. Bid with confidence! It was 100% until a few weeks
ago, when a malicious ebayer left me negative feedback over a $45.00 die cast
model car! Apparently, a windshield wiper was damaged in shipping overseas. I
attempted to rectify the situation, but the buyer would not respond or contact
me at all, and left me negative feedback! Located

Drive Ford's new Mustang in Need For Speed Rivals
Mon, 16 Dec 2013If waiting for the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang to hit dealerships is just too tall of an order, you'll be happy to hear that there is now an alternative means of getting behind the wheel of America's favorite pony car. The Mustang is making its video game debut in Need For Speed Rivals.
"We worked closely with the development team at EA to provide them with engineering data for the new Mustang, several months before we showed it to the rest of the world," said Ford product licensing manager Mark Bentley. "Computer design models enabled the game developers to create an accurate representation of the new Mustang before it goes on sale."
Players will have access to five unique designs for the Mustang, allowing a degree of individuality beyond solid colors and decals. According to Digital Marketing Manager Andrea Zuehlk of Ford, those designs are drawn from the four most popular designs on the Mustang Customizer, an online, mobile and tablet app that allows the public to design their own custom Mustang. A fifth design, penned by drift racer Vaughn Gittin, Jr., is also available.
Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.
Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average
Tue, 11 Jun 2013We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).
