1927 ford hot rod roadster . this is a fresh build with less than 500 miles on it . it has a 1966 283 SBC motor with lots of vintage speed equipment. 2 holley ford script carbs on top of the vintage speed adapter mounted to the early edelbrock TM1 mid rise intake . cal custom finned valve covers , edelbrock aluminum water pump , lots of CHROME (pulleys) and high volume mellings oil pump inside the CHROME oil pan , engine makes awesome oil pressure and is tight and trouble free.there is an early black top mallory dual point unit for ignition . there is a brand new CHROME powermaster high output alternator and a set of brand new polished stainless steel lakes style headers . TH 350 trans has a nice shift kit in it and shifts hard like it is supposed to ! there is a new CHROME lokar tall nostalgia shifter mounted to the trans . the front suspension is a CHROME dropped tube axle with CHROME spindles and CHROME shocks with CHROME backing plates and CHROME drums attached to a CHROME spring with CHROME steering arm and CHROME tie rod and CHROME hairpin radius rods . the rear suspension is CHROME coil overs mounted to a CHROME 57 chevy rear end with CHROME hair pin radius rods and CHROME backing plates and CHROME drums . you get the theme here ???....THIS CAR HAS SHOW CHROME EVERYWHERE the body is a deluxe body from speedway with a functional driver door . we installed a wood and steel skeleton in the body to prevent it from moving around at all and this body is tight . the windshield stanchions are polished aluminum smoothy units from speedway and the glass is a light tinted bronze to go well with the creamy wimbledon white paint on the body . the interior is heavy commercial grade black marine vinyl professionally installed ina real cool custom pattern that screams 60's show car with the bottom half being pleated and the top being smooth and the same theme brought into the seat pattern but flopped like they did it back in the day . all stainless marine quality fasteners were used to install it and it really adds to the overall look of the car .
this car gets a ton of attention , Chuck Vranas from street rodder magazine was shooting pics like crazy at the last show it was at . it will most definitely be seen in Street Rodder magazine when the show coverage from the Syracuse nationals is published in the mag. there were people crawling around under this thing and going crazy looking at all of the CHROME at the show . killer car at a killer price , you could not buy all of the parts used on this car for the reserve price . try paying some one to prep and chrome a 57 chevy rear end . HUH !!! that alone would be close to 3k drums and backing plates as smooth as a babies bottom would cost close to 1k to chrome etc.etc. there is over 5k in chrome alone here .there is countless hours of prep work in these parts to chrome them making it nearly un affordable for most people but the guy that originally chromed these parts owned a chrome shop in western NY so money wasn't an issue as far as that goes . good luck and happy bidding . i will send by text or email any additional pics that you may want or discuss any details of this build with anyone interested , just message me here with your phone number and i will call or text you as soon as i get a chance . i am not interested in low ball offers this a cool car to be stuck with for a while so i am not going to entertain any ignorant offers at all . i would consider swapping equal value hot rods so if you have an offer send me info to striptzer at g mail
thanx

2015 Ford Expedition stays the course, adds EcoBoost power
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The era of the body-on-frame, fullsize SUV is rapidly vanishing in favor of smaller, unibody crossovers. However, Ford still sees life in the segment with the reveal of the updated 2015 Expedition, now available (solely) with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. The new truck will make its public debut at the 2014 DFW Auto Show in Dallas on February 19.
The loss of the previous 5.4-liter V8 in favor of Ford's 3.5-liter, direct-injected, twin-turbocharged V6 engine might rankle some of the Expedition's fans, but Ford claims that the change gives the SUV better fuel economy, more power and increased low-end torque than before. Unfortunately, official engine specifications won't be released until later this year, but Ford says engine output will be similar to the 365 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque that this powerplant produces in other applications. The EcoBoost is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and the SUV now uses electrically assisted power steering, for an even greater fuel economy advantage. Ford claims this also allows for better maneuverability at low speeds and better feel at high speeds.
Exterior styling is basically unchanged for 2015. The front end has the same three-bar chrome grille and headlight design, but the lower air dam gets added chrome and LED lamps. The rear gets more brightwork on the hatch, and there's a chrome-tipped exhaust pipe. As before, Ford is offering the Expedition in two wheelbase lengths - 119 inches and 131 inches. A new, optional, continuously controlled damping system alters suspension settings constantly based on 46 parameters and offers comfort, normal and sport modes (just like the Expedition's sister, the recently refreshed and decidedly less-attractive Lincoln Navigator).
Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.
Ford family keeps special voting rights
Fri, 10 May 2013Ford Motor Company has a dual-class stock structure of Class A and Class B shares. The roughly three billion Class A shares are for the general public like you and me, while the roughly 71 million Class B shares are all owned by the Ford family. Each Class A share gets the shareholder one vote, each Class B share is worth 16 votes, the result being that Common Stock holders control about 60 percent of the company while the Ford family controls 40 percent even though it holds far fewer shares. The only way that could ever change would be if the Fords sell their Class B shares, but even so, Class B shares revert to Class A when sold outside the family, so they'd have to sell a whole bunch of them.
A contingent of Class A shareholders think the dual-class system is unfair, and for the past few years a vote's been held during the annual shareholders meeting to end it. It has failed every time, as it just did again during the meeting held this week. A smidge over 33 percent voted to end the dual system, outvoted by the 67 percent who are happy with the way Ford is going - unsurprising in view of a corporate turnaround that will be part of business-class curricula for years to come.
On the sidelines, Ford elected Ellen R. Marram to the post of independent director, the first woman to hold the job. The former Tropicana CEO and 20-year Ford board member replaces retiring board member Irvine Hockaday who helped bring Alan Mulally to the CEO position.
