1925 Fordor engine #12210338.
I already have more into this than I will get out of it but that's the way things go sometimes.
The generator and switch panel were replaced and I bought the top of line ammeter as well.
In addition to that there are complete new wiring harnesses but have been wired only to run the car.
There is a new exhaust manifold (and the proper steel/copper rings) and ball bearing fan pulley.
The fella I bought this from had not run it for 25 years after having removied a boatload of small stuff (and some large stuff which I reassembled) to have the car painted.
He also installed a new top wood kit (did a nice job too) and I have the pad and top covering.
I was going to go with a stained underside for the roof which you can see in the one photo. Since then I decided I'm going to quit on it altogether. The plywood is screwed, not glued, to the framework so can be very easily removed.
I have the dome light and the door post switch is in the car. The wood door posts are solid......REAL solid.
He had put all new Coker tires on it too but skimped on tubes so it sat with flat tires which caused some crazing.
I had new, metal stemmed, tubes installed in all 4 tires.
I got a very good used cowl vent as the old one had the handle broken off.
The car obviously has no interior at all to speak of. I have the rear seat cushion and container full of misc. screws and such.
All the side windows should be replaced (should be anyway.......when plate glass breaks it isn't pretty).
The unobtainium rear, rear, window lifter brackets and rods came the car too.......which I discovered after unwrapping painted parts that had been wrapped up for 25 years......whew.
It runs on mag but an in-car magnet recharge would soup it up nicely.
Almost forgot, I have a new set of expensive hardwood floorboards and trim for the front too.
I should mention it's still winter here and getting the car out NOW will be difficult.......possible but a major struggle.

Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014
Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).
eBay Find of the Day: 25-station video gaming trailer w/ bonus Ford F-250
Fri, Nov 28 2014Why, you might be asking yourself, is Autoblog showing me an eBay Motors listing for a 2006 Ford F-250 and a box trailer (with a badly cropped photo to boot)? It's not because we're highly interested in this blue-collar rig, to be sure, but rather because we're interested in throwing the greatest Forza party of all time. Housed in that innocuous white 26-foot trailer is a gamer's delight, with 25 Xbox 360 systems connected up to 25 high-definition monitors and 24 headsets to keep everyone locked into the action (one of the stations is outside the trailer). When connected up to one of two included generators, the setup allows for two-dozen combatants to square off, back-to-back and head-to-head. Sure, the Buy It Now price of $79,000 seems steep considering the trailer will need about ten grand worth of Xbox One or Playstation 4 upgrades in the near future. But that doesn't mean you couldn't squeeze out a few more years of massive multiplayer fun. Check out the listing here, and do let us know if you buy it, we'd love to come over and game.

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
