This 93 year old Speedster may be one of the few still left running, and its rarity adds to its excitement. Museum quality restoration completed in April 2013 by Ronald Russel. This wonderful piece of machinery had its first show on April 7, 2013 and this speedster took first in class at the Eliot Car Museum show.
In the restoration, a high compression aluminum head was installed, along with a High Volume Aluminum intake manifold. Also added was a new alternator, and the entire drive train was rebuilt, including ring and pinion gears, spider gears, universal joint, bearings, bushings and seals. The engine starts very easily, either by battery or by crank. Features of this car include a Steward Speedometer, a 1916 Appleton Spotlight (works), and a 1911 Pyrene Fire extinguisher. The car also has a battery cutoff switch, and a very rare 1920 License plate, which is registered in Florida to the car.
This car is a blast to drive, and most parts for it are still available throughout the US. It is a great car for a showroom floor, Car shows, or an occasional parade, or ride around the neighborhood. I am downsizing my car collection, and need to make room for my other vehicles. Interested parties can reach me (Frank) at 863 381-2444 for more details or information.

Ford Mustang 50th anniversary edition brings in $170k
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Just the other day, we reported on the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat selling for a whopping $825,000 at auction. But impressive as that sum was, the Challenger wasn't the only sought-after modern muscle car to cross the Barrett-Jackson auction block in Las Vegas this past weekend. So did this rare Ford Mustang.
The last of 1,964 special-edition 50 Years Limited Edition pony cars sold for a princely $170,000, with proceeds benefiting the Edith and Benson Ford Heart & Vascular Institute, a branch of the Henry Ford Health System.
The pony car in question is based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and upgrades with a performance package and nearly every option on the book, along with a unique appearance package to set it apart in celebration of the Mustang's 50th anniversary. It's available in two exclusive shades - Wimbledon white or Kona blue - with either a manual or automatic transmission. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples were to be built, and this was the last of them.

As US exports top 2 million, is America becoming the world's source of cheap cars?
Mon, Feb 9 2015North American auto production is booming with 2014 figures just shy of the of the 17.3-million vehicle record set in 2000. With more models being built on the continent, even more are being shipped overseas. Factories in the US exported 2.1 million cars last year – the highest number ever. About half of those went to Canada and Mexico, but more than ever have been heading to places like the Middle East and China. The upswing comes in part from from after-effects from the Great Recession, according to The Wall Street Journal. With a weak dollar and lower production costs after the financial crisis, building vehicles in the US was relatively cheaper and more competitive in the world. At the same time buyers around the world are going crazy for crossovers. According to the WSJ, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are already exporting the majority of their US production of these models overseas. Both automakers have also announced investments to expand production further here to send more vehicles abroad. Even Honda has been shipping more models out of the country than it imported here. There is a concern this international strength could start slowing because the dollar is strengthening against other currencies, though it's too early to know what the actual effect of this could be, according to the WSJ. "Of course, we closely watch currency exchange, but we don't make changes in production or allocation based on temporary fluctuations in the exchange rate," Ford North American boss Joe Hinrichs told the newspaper.
