T-bucket Roadster on 2040-cars
Kalispell, Montana, United States
|
This is a '23 T-Bucket roadster but it's listed on the title as a 1913. I'm not sure when it was built. It appears to be a survivor form the 1970's or 1980's at the latest. It is a Total Performance chassis and chrome spring-behind front end. The engine is a early '70s 350 block. It has a 6 quart baffled oil pan, a balanced rotating assembly, hi volume oil pump, bow tie 2.02/1.60 angle plug heads with 1.6 ratio rolled rockers and a Weiand tunnel ram with two 450 Holley carbs. The distributer is a Mallory duel point. The cam is a mild street cam. I'm not sure what it is. I've owned this car for 4 years. In that time I've been through it end to end. It has recent brakes, tires and AR wheels front and rear with 18.5 inch Mickey radials on the rear. The interior was done last fall by Ron at Loose Ends Upholstery in Kalispell Montana. The T-400 transmission was rebuilt last year by Bill Smith Transmissions in Bigfork Mt. The car weighs 1,850 lbs. so the horse power to weight ratio is really strong. This is a smokin' little car. It hooks hard and goes straight but it's very mild mannered around town. My wife drives it and loves it. The car won trophies three years running in the "Run to the Rockies" car show here in Kalispell Mt. I will not divulge the reserve price but it is WAY less that 1/2 what the car would cost to build. The car comes with a soft top which is not currently on the car but is included in the sale. If you have questions please ask before bidding. The car is for sale locally. Shipping and transport of the car is the responsibility of the buyer. I require a $1000 deposit within 24 hrs of auction end and payment in full within 3 business days. Thanx, 406-890-4286 Scott |

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake
Thu, 08 May 2014Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.
Ford wants to double hybrid offerings by 2020
Wed, Jan 15 2014The Blue Oval is looking for folks on the other side of this Big Old Sphere to get on board with its hybrid offerings. Ford executive Raj Nair, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show this week, said the US automaker wants to double the number of hybrids models it offers by the end of the decade, Reuters reports. Details of what that actually means is anyone's guess, as it was unclear how many of those models would be in the US and how many would be overseas. That said, Nair did say that prospective customers in regions such as China and Europe would drive the expansion of offerings. Ford got off to a great start in the US last year on its hybrid sales, but then tailed off towards the end of 2013. Ford more than doubled its green-car sales in 2013 to almost 88,000 units. In that number were more than 37,000 Fusion Hybrids and more than 28,000 C-Max Hybrids sold domestically. The company also sold almost 7,500 Lincoln MKZ Hybrids. Ford's green-car totals for 2013 were up fivefold at the mid-year point, hinting that Ford's hybrid sales plateaued, at least temporarily, in recent months.
Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year
Thu, 25 Jul 2013It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
