1926 Ford 5 Window Coupe,, Rat Rod Hot Rod Street Rod Custom Gasser on 2040-cars
Frankfort, Kentucky, United States
I have a 1926 Ford Model tall T. First it is a true Henry Ford steel body that is titled as a 1926 Ford. No aftermarket glass body. This Hot rod started off as a very solid model T that was a true barn find that was stored untouched for years. Second it was mated to an newer Speedway frame with 4 link rear and a round tube drop axle with drum brakes on front. The motor is a VERY healthy built 406. Motor is .30 with an over sized cam that thumps! Has an Edelbrock aluminum intake, rebuilt and jetted quadrajet, longtube headers, aluminum griffin radiator, 410 gear in a 10 bolt rearend. Trans is a 700R4 that has a very firm shift. Both motor and trans are mechanically sound with no leaks, smokes, or slips.
All glass is perfect. Has a tilt column, new aftermarket wiring harness, Classic Dolphin gauges. Front window still works. Swings out at the bottom for fresh air. Also brand new Weld draglite wheels and tires. 8x15 rear and 3x15 front runners with 275x60 and 165s on front all witch are brand new. Battery is mounted in trunk. Plastic gas tank with working gauge. Car runs and drives very good. Gets looks and thumbs up everywhere. Car draws a crowd at the gas station. Things that it still needs is a headliner and carpet to make interior complete. Also needs door glass on both sides. Pics of car do no justice at all. You really need to see the car in person. Car was dusty and dirty in pics. Just to cold out to clean on it. Before bidding I invite you to come see the car in person. For more pics and video call 502-803-5767. Thanks |

BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod
Thu, 20 Jun 2013Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
2015 Ford Mustang GT road test ride-along
Wed, 24 Sep 2014You've no doubt already pored over our first drive of the 2015 Ford Mustang, where author Jonathon Ramsey proclaimed that "this new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment." And following Ramsey's first stint behind the wheel of Ford's new coupe, we sent him back out with another 'Stang to capture some of these same impressions over a backdrop of the car moving quickly along gorgeous California canyon roads.
But this also gave our author and editors time to read through the hundreds of comments left on that original Mustang review. You readers are indeed a vocal bunch, and one particular comment about how the automotive media is so willing to bash an outgoing car as soon as the new one arrives really caught our attention. In this video, Ramsey stands by his written text, saying the new Mustang is "massively better than the one it replaces," and in doing so, addresses your comments while providing more insight into just how good the Ford truly is.
We won't spoil the rest for you. Check out the feature video above, and as always, leave us your thoughts in the Comments section below.
