What a great hot rod! I took this 1923 Ford T Bucket in trade a while back and don’t drive it as much as I had planned to, so I've decided to sell it. (I have three of them and don’t have time to work on and drive all of them.)

I didn't build the car; it was built by the infamous Grumpy’s Garage. I've built enough of these things to recognize the amount of money that went into this one. This thing is pretty much turnkey (other than putting your own touches on it ) so instead of wasting the next two to three years building your own, jump in this one and head to the show nearest to you today! I've only driven this thing a few miles but it was a BLAST. It is fasssstttt as hell. Certain to put a smile on your face

As far as I can tell, and coupled with the information I was given by the previous owner below is a list of what the car has:

1. Totally custom boxed channeled, reinforced chassis (not sure what brand the chassis is) extremely detailed, all painted/pinstriped/chromed. Drop front axle, front disc brakes, drum rear brakes all accessories, lines either chrome or painted…did I mention this damn thing has A LOT of chrome and detail, detail, detail ! lots and lots of work and $$$$$

2. Fiberglass body, (looks like speedway) with pickup bed, custom stake, upholstered cover, with approx 16 gal tank. Very nicely done. Finished in hot-rod black with pinstripes…looks great in person! I've run a body shop for the last several years, and I can tell you the body is nice and straight and the paint is very decent, definitely not a rat rod, but a nice hot rod with an old school look. It’s been to several rod runs in our area, and is always a crowd favorite and wins awards.

3. Very nicely done totally built 283 ( detailed with lots of chrome, high rise with single 4 barrel hei ignition, high flow radiator, ( I believe turbo 400 trans/w shift kit) and old school looking shifter, and a bunch of old school touches! A lot of heart and several Benjamins went into this build and it shows! Roadster headers, with walker mufflers (most don’t spend the money for these). Sounds awesome and hauls ass! Very tight and solid, drives great, everything seems to work as it should, has been licensed and registered in Utah for the last few years.

4. Really nice upholstery, not your run of the mill snap in garbage usually associated with T-buckets and Volkswagen dune-buggies! You couldn't build this car for twice the price of the reserve.

This vehicle will sell! The reserve is low and the car is awesome, so bid fast and bid often. Please feel free to contact me with any further questions you may have I’m available late every day. Thanks, Jerry 801-668-1924.

The car is also available for sale locally and so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time before the reserve is met thanks for looking and good luck!

Ford's Farley apologizes for saying Blue Oval tracks customers with GPS

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Ford marketing head honcho Jim Farley made waves at CES this week by telling show attendees, "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it." according to a report by Business Insider. Farley continued by saying, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone."
Farley has since amended his statement, saying that Ford dose not, in fact, track its customers in their cars "without their approval or consent."
Apparently carried away with a hypothetical notion, Farley was attempting to describe how Ford might be able to employee aggregated user data for things like accurate traffic reporting and pattern spotting. A Ford spokesperson confirmed with Business Insider that its GPS units are not sharing the whereabouts of drivers, though there are a few on-board services that might do so. After opting in to the services (and presumably being made aware of any/all tracking and data collection), Ford's Sync Services Directions and Crew Chief software do, in fact, allow data collection as a means of improving both systems. Farley added that the opt-in data is not shared, even when being tracked.

Mazda Turnpike in Japan shut down for racing

Mon, Dec 29 2014

The people behind Motorhead Magazine in Japan clearly have some friends in high places. Not only did they manage to shutdown eight kilometers of the Mazda Turnpike up the Hakone mountain, but they invited some of the country's premiere racers to take a drive up the hill. This wasn't just a Sunday cruise either. Featuring a BMW Z4 from the Super GT series, a classic Ford GT40, two flavors of Nissan GT-R and two takes on the Subaru Impreza WRX STI, these guys came ready to run. When an opportunity to let racecars challenge a curvy mountain road presents itself, you don't squander it. Thankfully, the folks at Motorhead knew that and outfitted the course with a plethora of cameras and high-quality sound equipment to capture the action. The result is nothing short of sublime. Take the video's urging to turn up your speakers for this one, and watch as these racers hit ludicrous speeds in a beautiful place never meant for them.
