  Up for auction is a nice looking and running 1917 Model T touring car.  This is a four door body probably from Canada.  I bought this car with the idea to drive it and just have fun.  After thinking about it I don't need another Model T.  What you see in the pictures is pretty much how I bought it.  I did clean the engine and painted it just to make it look a lot better.  I also adjusted the bands and the high speed clutch fingers.  It is the original 17 engine and the numbers on the block match the title.  The engine starts and runs good.  I drove it down the road and it did just fine.  I was also able to change the optional Ruckstell two speed rear end on the fly just like it should.  It has a small drum Ruckstell rear end in it.  It looks like all four fenders are new or real nice originals.  All four wood spoke wheels look like they are also new reproductions.  The tires look to be new, but not sure how long they have been on the car.  The top is brand new and looks nice.  The interior is not brand new but is in real good shape.  The body is in good shape but you can see some blemishes under the doors where they may have done some body work at one time.  The drivers side splash apron has a dent in it just below the drivers door.  It has scratches in many places from use.  I think it was a car that someone used and that is what the paint looks like.  The glass looks to be safety glass too.  The mag horn works, but is not real loud.  No speedometer so mileage is unknown on this car....

  I have started this car many times and it starts easy.  When it is cold, I just pull the choke and give the crank 2 or 3 short pulls with the key off.  I go to the side and turn the key to battery and it starts or will start most of the time if I move the spark up or down to make the coil fire.  Once it is warm it will only require 1 or 2 short pulls to make it fire with the key on.  It runs on mag too.  It has a 12 volt battery in it that makes it start easier and the head light bulbs are 12 volt also. (bright)  The chassis looks to be in good shape that may have been restored years ago.  I did not see any rust anywhere from the under side.  This car would make a great driver or parade car........
  Please ask questions before bidding!!!

Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.

Meet Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller, Iowa's latest hatchet-wielding criminal

Fri, Jul 11 2014

Well, we've found the long-lost cousin of yesterday's Bentley-tattooed criminal from Florida. This is Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller. No, seriously. While his name seems just like the sort of thing we'd expect the Sunshine State to produce, he actually hails from Iowa. Despite coming from the Hawkeye State, Miller was arrested for a decidedly Floridian offense – getting in a bar fight and then returning with a hatchet. The only way this story could be more Florida is if meth, a manatee or bath salts were involved. The fight, which was at the Cheap Seats Sports Bar, started off typically enough, with a verbal argument in the parking lot (please, please let his nemesis be named "Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Smith"). This, naturally, attracted passing police officers. Things were broken up and some friends took Miller to his home, which was apparently just behind the bar. That's when he returned with the hatchet tucked under his shirt. Miller promptly proceeded to take out the implement of destruction in the bar's bathroom and... forget about it entirely. Fortunately, the police hadn't left the area yet. Not surprisingly, Miller was arrested for a parole violation, as well as public intoxication and going armed with intent. Still, cool name, bro.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
