Just finished, multi year rotisserie restoration on a solid Boss 302. This car was taken down to the unibody, media
blasted and restored to the level you see pictured. Floors are original to the car, only major sheet metal that to
my knowledge is not original to the car is the passenger side quarter panel and perhaps the battery inner fender
panel. Doors are original ford, as is deck lid and hood. Car is highly detailed under hood and under carriage. I
have lots of photo's of this car so is you are looking for a specific photo please ask.
Drivetrain while not original to this Boss is assembly line Boss 302 components. The partial vin on the block is
0F189800, I asked about this vin on the Boss forum and found it is a legitimate Boss vin from a vehicle that was
scraped. The trans is the correct RUG tag intact as a wide ratio four speed. Rear is an open 3:50 9 inch
differential. Before we purchased this car some 8 years ago the engine was rebuilt buy the previous owner, starts
right up no unusual noises and it runs cool, it does have a bit of a larger cam installed but it is not
problematic. Car has correct remanufactured distributor, with correct vacuum chamber, and the correct dated Holley
carburetor, correct fuel pump, complete smog system with vanes removed from air pump to make it non functional,
correct snorkel with original base. The rev limiter is a gutted voltage regulator housing with new harness. Correct
Autolite alternator too! This car still is using an assembly line Y pipe!!
Inside is a clean tach dash instrument cluster, functional up graded clock. Both dash panels were rechromed and
detailed, head liner is new, AM radio plays load and clear. Restored console assembly and restored Bill Herndon
steering wheel (horns work). New carpet and door panels. New reproduction dash panel, kick panels, sail panels,
sail panel lamps etc. As I mentioned the fuel gauge is intermittent and if possible I will try to have this sorted
out for the new owner.
Exterior had all the stainless polished and buffed, new bumpers, urethane base clear Grabber Orange paint with new
reflective stripes. All exterior lighting working. Rebuilt brake booster and master cylinder, rebuilt proportioning
valve and all new brake and fuel lines, new rotors, rebuilt calipers, new pads etc. etc. etc. New Magnum 500 wheels
with new Firestone Wide Oval bias ply tires. New front windshield, all other glass is Ford tinted.
This car was not a rusty car, it was and is extremely solid making it a great candidate for the restoration it
received. It is increasing difficult to turn out an authentic Boss restoration as most good used original parts are
long gone and what little is left in NOS service parts are priced to the heavens. So if you value a car that has
almost all Ford sheet metal and sports very good fit and body lines then take a long look at this car and you will
realize the dollars invested to bring a car to this level. I see many Boss 302's for sale that lack the hard to get
parts ( like the reverse lock out rod, carburetor, distributor, exhaust manifolds) and are past rust buckets and
are loaded with Chinese sheet metal sporting the poor fit and finish being advertised for much more than this cars
reserve.

Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says

Fri, Jun 5 2015

The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.

Aluminum lightweighting does, in fact, save fuel

Mon, Apr 14 2014

When the best-selling US truck sheds the equivalent weight of three football fullbacks by shifting to aluminum, folks start paying attention. Oak Ridge National Laboratory took a closer look at whether the reduced fuel consumption from a lighter aluminum body makes up for the fact that producing aluminum is far more energy intensive than steel. And the results of the study are pretty encouraging. In a nutshell, the energy needed to produce a vehicle's raw materials accounts for about 10 percent of a typical vehicle's carbon footprint during its total lifecycle, and that number is up from six percent because of advancements in fuel economy (fuel use is down to about 68 percent of total emissions from about 75 percent). Still, even with that higher material-extraction share, the fuel-efficiency gains from aluminum compared to steel will offset the additional vehicle-extraction energy in just 12,000 miles of driving, according to the study. That means that, from an environmental standpoint, aluminum vehicles are playing with the house's money after just one year on the road. Aluminum-sheet construction got topical real quickly earlier this year when Ford said the 2015 F-150 pickup truck would go to a 93-percent aluminum body construction. In addition to aluminum being less corrosive than steel, that change caused the F-150 to shed 700 pounds from its curb weight. And it looks like the Explorer and Expedition SUVs may go on an aluminum diet next. Take a look at SAE International's synopsis of the Oak Ridge Lab's study below. Life Cycle Energy and Environmental Assessment of Aluminum-Intensive Vehicle Design Advanced lightweight materials are increasingly being incorporated into new vehicle designs by automakers to enhance performance and assist in complying with increasing requirements of corporate average fuel economy standards. To assess the primary energy and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) implications of vehicle designs utilizing these materials, this study examines the potential life cycle impacts of two lightweight material alternative vehicle designs, i.e., steel and aluminum of a typical passenger vehicle operated today in North America. LCA for three common alternative lightweight vehicle designs are evaluated: current production ("Baseline"), an advanced high strength steel and aluminum design ("LWSV"), and an aluminum-intensive design (AIV).

Your official Ford Transit specs are here, $29,565* to start

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Ford has released the full list of pricing and specs on its new Transit, the replacement for the long-lived E-Series cargo van. Prices are set to start at $29,565 and can increase rapidly from there, depending on length, engine and wheelbase, among other options.
Let's talk first about those new engines. The base is the familiar 3.7-liter, naturally aspirated V6. It boasts 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and can return up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This engine can also be adapted to run on LPG or compressed natural gas. Of course, there are better alternatives, for a price, the first of which is Ford's well-received, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. It packs 310 hp and a best-in-class 400 lb-ft of torque (available at just 2,500 rpm) while matching the naturally aspirated engine in both city and highway fuel economy.
Then, there's the diesel. With a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel mill at its disposal, the Transit generates 350 lb-ft between 1,500 and 2,500 rpm, along with 185 hp. This engine hasn't been rated by the EPA, although we'd be really, really surprised if it didn't handily best either of the gas-powered engines in fuel efficiency. A six-speed automatic is standard, regardless of engine.
