Mean 1950 Ford F-1 Rat Road With 383/727 Inside on 2040-cars
Dillsburg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1950 Ford F-1 Rat Rod, which I bought 18 months ago on Ebay out of Florida. The truck is a true rat rod, with a rusted body and a solid, strong running engine. I am selling because I am relocating to China in 2014, and this will sit in a garage otherwise.
This is a true "what's under the hood" style truck, with a Mopar 383 (Block Forge #24681308, 10/21/66) and BB727 transmission out of a 1968 charger. The transmission is modified with a manual valve body (which means you need to shift 1-2-3 for those that don't know), and it shifts very well. This truck is also modified with power steering, converted 12V electric, edelbrock 600 carb, and a new beer keg gas tank bolted to the bed. Also has a cool flame thrower kit bolted to the exhaust, which is fun to play with at ice cream parlors. Since picking this up in the summer of 2012, I have had the power steering redone (the joints locked), the radiator replaced (old one leaked), the electric wiring redone (Frankenstein), the suspension tightened with new king pins, and the brakes overhauled. This truck starts up on the first try every time, and I have been driving it a few times a week (when home) to keep the fluids fresh. Again - this is not a show car, nor could it ever be (at least not for a reasonable cost) - the body panels are rusted, the wrong engine is in it, and... well there's a lot to list. There is a true rat rod in every sense of the word, and should be driven as such. This truck does come with a second box of parts, an additional (rust free) cab if you want to make the switch, and some wooden running boards I was going to install this winter. Truck is also listed locally so I reserve the right to cancel the auction if it sells. Thanks! |

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773

On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV.

2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang debuts at Lagun Seca

The driver competed in Formula One with the Shadow team in 1973, ran the Indianapolis 500, was the Can-Am champion in 1972 and drove stock cars in NASCAR's Winston Cup as well.
