"El Lay Mae" "Moldy Marvin's" T&A This old girl has some history and a story to tell.. Currently Registered in the State of California (on a non op) | |
| Back in 2001 I found El Lay Mae at the L.A. Roadster Show, She was sitting all by herself in a corner at the swap meet.
I got her from dry lakes king Joe Moreno
|
Here is a snap of her once I got her home.r once I got her home. |  |
This is what she looked like after I had taken off all of the stickers and cleaned her up real good. |
| That there is the infamous John Parker cuttin' it up with the camera... The guy in the hat is the well known auto artist Kent Bash who included El Lay Mae and I in one of his paintings.
This painting has been published in several magazine articles about Kent. |
John, Richard, & George usin' the El Lay Mae's trunk fer a dinner table. Bob's Big Boy 2001 So What the heck is she anyway ? Well she's got 1928 Rails, Truck Bed and 4 banger Mill... The Fiberglas 23 T bucket was put on her sometime in the early 60's cuz it's all hand laid ... the side pipes are active and serve two purposes (1) to make a bunch of noise and (2) to serve as nerf bars and extra support for that old t bucket...... The Brakes are Mechanical and she tops out between 45 and 50 MPH... | |
| In 2002 she won her first award at the Jewel City Kiwanis Car Show
The Award is for First Place Special Interest. All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae |
| 2002 was also the first year that I started Racing El Lay Mae in the Antique Nationals . |
Me and a Buddy of Mine Flintstone had a running bet of $ 1.00 every year when we raced side by side. His car was very much like El Lay Mae and he called his car Ebay Elly |

Flintstone Beat me every year that is until 2004.

|
All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae | 2004 EL Lay Mae and I in the winners circle Antique Nationals.
She was the slowest Car on the track at 25.5 seconds. In our last eliminations we went up against a beautiful 14 second board track racer worth about $ 40,000.0, El Lay Mae was so consistent that day and we took Jim Macnair Award 1st Place in the 4 Banger Class!
I Love Bracket Racing! |
El Lay Mae Loves to go to El Mirage |
El Lay Mae, myself and Joaquin Arnett of the Bean Bandits |
In the summer of 2004 we shot this Desert Drag Race Segment. You can watch the segment about 5 minutes into the movie. EL Lay Mae and Flintston's Ebay Elly.
El Lay Mae played the part of "Old Timer" (Voice by Alex Xydias) which was the first car in the movie to be interviewed. | The Movie Tales of the Ratfink took 6 years to produce, I worked on the film as a consultant to Ron Mann.
The Film can now be viewed on Hulu Just click the Hulu button below and enjoy the show!

El Lay Mae Today | |
 |  |
| Back in 2007 I swapped out El Lay Mae's mill with a 1930 4 banger because her original mill main seal went along with the babbit. | |
 |  |
 |  |
| The 1930 Mill still runs but it too now needs Babbit too so I haven't driven her for awhile now. | |
|  EL Lay Mae's Original Mill Comes with the Sale |
 I recently acquired this 1929 Mill with a B performance police head. This Mill comes with the Sale also. | 
I started Cleaning it up because it is in pretty good condition. |
 The Babbit is in great shape. | The concept was to take apart this most recent Mill tear it down and rebuild El Lay Mae's original Mill with the parts. |

 |  |
| Even though El Lay Mae might need a little TLC today, she has been very good to me for many years now. She is a keeper for sure and as much as I would like to hang on to her I really need to sell her cuz I need the $$$! I'm really hoping that her new owner will feel the same way and treat her good for many more years of enjoyment!

Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
How the Ford Shelby Mustang came to be
Fri, 20 Sep 2013Even as rumors swirl that the next-generation of high-performance Ford Mustang will drop the Shelby name, Ford has released a short video telling how the legend of the Shelby Mustang came to be. In its latest installment of its video series entitled Mustang Countdown, Ford dug up some footage from Carroll Shelby to give a little insight into how this automotive icon was created.
While it's definitely interesting to hear the late legend tell the story in his own words (including numerous references to the 1964 Mustang as a "secretary's car"), it's also pretty funny learning exactly how the Shelby GT350 got its name in the first place - a name allegedly making a comeback as the replacement for the current Shelby GT500. As development work continues on the 2015 Ford Mustang, the Shelby video posted below shows that the automaker is always looking at its past - even as it looks ahead to the future.
2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang
Fri, 26 Jul 2013Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
