1940 Ford Other Deluxe on 2040-cars
Sparta, Illinois, United States
Please contact me only at : claudianus_feuerhelm@aol.com Here is a nice 1940 Ford Deluxe convertible built to the late Forties hop upstyle. This neat original Ford was modified about 25 years ago by Hot RodHistorian Don Montgomery. The car was set up to be as it might have been in thelate 1940s. The exterior has genuine steel, DeSoto bumpers, flipper hub capswith beauty rings and original style rear fender skirts, with the correct leverclamping arms. The car is lowered using longer shackles and de-arched springs aswas often done back then (Note that the car is not as low as the present daystreet rods are). The 15" Ford wheels have 6.70 x 15 Firestone whitewall tireson them. The car is like a mild hop up (street rod) of that postwar period. Highperformance was not forgotten. The Ford/Mercury flathead engine has added speedequipment including a 1936 McCulloch supercharger, Edlebrock heads, a Potvin camand Fenton iron headers.

Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Ford has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.

Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
