1927 Ford Model T Coupe - Traditional Hot Rod - Chopped on 2040-cars
Zimmerman, Minnesota, United States
I am selling my all steel 1927 coupe. It is chopped 6" with a 53' chevy roof filling the top.(old school trick) Just a cheap rattle can paint job to achieve the traditional look. It has glass windshield and 1/4" plexi-glass quarter windows and back window. There is no glass in doors but I have working regulators in doors. The doors are in pretty good condition. The trunk lid was fabricated from a replacement skin. The motor is an older G.M. 350 crate motor with a vintage Weiand cross ram with 2 Holly 450 cfm carbs. Vintage AFX valve covers and lake style headers. It has a Walker radiator. It has a turbo 350 automatic transmission and a 8" rearend. It has highway gears (not sure what) but it runs about 2800 rpm's at 70 mph. It is on a 2"x3" tube frame Speedway front suicide axle and disc brakes. Rearend has coils and shocks with hairpins to frame. It has King Bee headlights and 39' ford style taillights. All lights work properly. It has Stewart Warner gauges which all work properly. The master cylinder is under dash from an early Mustang. It has disc brakes in front and drum at rear. The battery is located in trunk and fuel tank is behind seats. The wheels are Rocket Racing Wheels with B.F. Goodrich tires from Coker. It has a Lokar shifter. I'm not sure what the seats are out of. (swap meet find). I have driven this car for the past 3 years to about 25 car shows per year. It runs cool in traffic and handles nice at highway speeds. My reason for selling is I want to get a Model A streetrod or a cool gasser. The car is for sale or trade locally and listing may end early.

There's an official press release that you can read, but if you're more of a visual person, you're welcome to watch the live video feed of the announcement down below.
Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty Power Stroke
Tue, 29 Jul 2014What weighs 30,000 pounds? Big Ben's Westminster bell. A navy ship anchor. Or as we found out during our first drive program for the 2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty, seven pallets of cinder blocks loaded onto a dual-axle gooseneck trailer. The test was part of a raft of towing demonstrations that showcased the new Super Duty's impressive tug capacity, which maxes out at 32,100 pounds. That's 1,200 more than its nearest rival, the Ram 3500, when equipped with its upgraded 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel V8. Such is the heavy-duty pickup truck business, a diesel-fueled game of one-upmanship with only three players: Ford, Chevrolet/GMC and Ram. And in this game, the one with the most torque wins.
Until 2014, Ford was the one to beat, with its 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel bringing 400 hp and a massive 800 lb-ft of torque to the table. Then last year, Ram did exactly that, serving Ford with a beefed-up Cummins turbodiesel inline-six in its freshened Ram Heavy Duty truck line with 385 hp and 850 lb-ft of torque, enabling it to tow up to 30,000 pounds. But Ford claims it had designed its engine to be relatively easy to upgrade when the time called for it, so for 2015, Ford bolted a larger turbo to the Power Stroke, bringing output to an insane 440 hp and 860 lb-ft of twist, all without reducing fuel efficiency. Maximum tow capacity rises from 24,700 lbs to an incredible 31,200 lbs for the F-450 dually.
As for GM's HDs? They lag behind the lot with their 6.6-liter Duramax V-8, producing 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque. Yeah, you know things are serious when the trucks with 765 lb-ft are the knock-kneed wimps of the lot.
