This is the classic ultimate barn find. A very well built '23 T Bucket from the early 70's judging by the build. Must have been a very high dollar car in it's day. I actually purchased it just for the engine that I am going to run "as is" in my old school gasser. It had a high performance early model 454 in it with real Chevrolet factory 1968 L-88 aluminum heads on it. It now has a very low mileage ( 17,000 miles ), great running, and freshly painted, but basically stock,1982 big block 454 Chevy in it. It is running a great shifting 400 Turbo and single track 12 bolt rear end. It is still faster than you want to go in a car this light. It still lifts the front left tire off of the ground when the pedal is hit hard, and absolutely fries the right rear tire. It has the old school Buick finned aluminum brake drums on all 4 corners. Stops great. Old style 4 link rear end suspension with coil springs and chrome shocks. Front suspension is old school also. Drives, stops, and steers great. The body must have been a high dollar one also. Very thick fiberglass with working passenger door. No stress cracks anywhere. The paint is in awesome shape too. It definitely withstood the test of time with very little, if any, wear and chips. The frame is even pin stripped underneath the body. The interior also must have been very expensive in it's day, but it is showing signs of wear and repair. All gauges work including the speedometer and odometer. I was told the 10,000 miles it shows is actual mileage. From the car's overall condition, I'd say it is accurate. Old school headlights. '32 Ford steel grille shell cut down to fit. Vintage windshield frame. The shifter is the only item that I think was updated until I switched engines around. The steering column could use one of those modern day braces, but it never had one before and lived thru it. The brake pedal could also use a return spring, but never had one of those either. Car runs very cool with an electric fan. The cloth top and frame is in very good shape, but it looks much cooler with the top removed. The tires are old bias ply wide white walls. Decent tread, but I would replace them before I took any long trips, because I have no idea how old they are. They are not all cracked up though.

Next SVT Mustang may axe Shelby name, go naturally aspirated
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Following our first glimpse at the 2015 Ford Mustang out on the road, the fine folks at Road and Track have divulged some details on what the Blue Oval's next pony might have in store. We've already seen that the car will get some very sleek, Evos-inspired design cues, and an independent rear suspension is indeed in store. These new details, however, concern the muscle car's beating heart.
For starters, the base Ford coupe is expected to carry on with V6 power, likely from the same 3.7-liter unit found in today's car. From there, R&T says the next step up will be a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, likely displacing 2.3 liters, putting out as much as 350 horsepower. Of course, a Mustang wouldn't be a Mustang without V8 thrust, and R&T states that the 5.0-liter Coyote V8 will continue on into the 2015 car, making something like 450 horsepower.
But it's at the high end of the Mustang range where things will, reportedly, get very, very interesting. Road & Track claims that the top-shelf 'Stang will likely lose the supercharger from its engine, producing a metric crap-ton of naturally aspirated grunt instead. Additionally, the SVT-fettled Mustang will likely be dropping its Shelby moniker, in favor of "a name you're familiar with," according to the magazine (you know, like, Cobra).
Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
2015 Ford Mustang production to begin on July 14? Not quite, says Ford
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
