Up for auction is a T Bucket Roadster. I am selling this car for a friend that inherited it from his grandfather. This car is titled as a "homebuilt". It began construction in 1966 in Southern California and is titled as a 1966. My friends grandfather purchased it in the late 70s and owned it until he passed a few years ago. In the early 90s, he had the car repainted and a new interior installed, both are still in excellent condition. The last upgrade that he completed was in the late 90s when he converted the front drum brakes to discs. It is powered by a 1958 Corvette 283 with a turbo 350 3 speed automatic transmission and a 9" ford posi trac rear end. It is a fiberglass bucket with steel tube frame. I'm not sure what the gear ratio is, but the car is very driveable. It has an electric fuel pump and internally regulated alternator. It has a Holly Street Dominator intake mankifold and the factory corvette valve covers. The odometer shows 25,727 miles, but I can not guarantee the accuracy. The engine and trans have no leaks, but the rear diff has a very slight leak, common problem with 9" Fords. The emergency brake is a drive shaft mounted disc brake with a pull handle in the floor. Front suspension is all chrome, in excellent condition with the inverted leaf spring. Rear suspension is the same inverted leaf spring with air shocks that are good. The dash has a fuel gauge, amp meter, temp, oil pressure and speedo, all work. When he decided to sell the car, we installed a new battery and a new carburetor, Edelbrock polished. We replaced one brake line and flushed the brake system. The header side pipes have baffles in them, so it is not incredibly loud, but it does thump! I am located in Olathe, KS, southwest side of Kansas City and will show the car any time. The car runs and drives great and is absolutely an "Old School hot rod". I am selling this car with no reserve, It will sell! Please ask questions early so I have time to provide adequate answers. I can provide additional pictures if you like. I will require a $500 deposit through Pay Pal within 24 hours of auction end and the balance paid in cash or cashiers check within 7 days. I will assist with loading if you have the car shipped and I can store the car for up to 14 days. If you need additional terms, please have those agreed upon prior to acution end. Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
Scroll down to watch Auto Express' top five commercial in order and to check out a press release, then let us know some of your favorite car commercials in Comments.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost

Fri, 09 May 2014

I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.

Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron

Thu, Feb 23 2017

Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.
