1929 Model A Roadster, 50's Built Hot Rod, No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars
Canby, Oregon, United States
|
This an original Portland built roadster. Purchased by the last owner in the early 60's, it was a running driving car at that time. Unfortunately no one in the family remembers what engine it had nor anything else about it. It has sat untouched for 50 plus years. The car is heavily channeled over a very modified frame. Definitely a well done car, it may have some show history. It also has a Carson type lift off top made by the Portland Top Company. It is in poor condition but could be recovered. The rear wood bows have spread at one end but could be steamed back into shape, has a great tag on it still. set up for a saddle mount sbc. original 32 grille shell and insert that has been expertly chopped.
Front axle is dropped and drilled, 4 bar suspension. Rear suspension is unknown, I have a 9 inch strapped in to roll it but I think it may have been set up for independent. Has a very nice roll bar setup, not just for looks. needs some repair behind the doors, right rear fender well has some minor rust. 32 dash that has been filled, recessed firewall. Set up for nerf bars front and rear. I set a 32 closed car windshield on it just so you get an idea of how it might look, the windshield posts have been chopped and it would take a 10 inch tall windshield, the 32 windshield is not included. This could be a fantastic car. I have included a pic of Tweety Bird, a 32 that looks similar in style. There is no title, bill of sale only. Bid to own, no reserve. I have a 56 265 with very low miles for an additional $400. I can store the car for a couple months, it steers by moving the front wheels by hand, rolls easily. |

Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 23 Sep 2013In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.
Ford Explorer, Expedition next to go aluminum?
Sun, 13 Apr 2014Ford made some serious waves when it unveiled the latest F-150. Instead of making its bodywork out of steel, like just about every other truck on the market, Ford went with aluminum. And you can bet the F-150 won't be the last Ford model to go with the lightweight alloy construction, either.
Our compatriots at Edmunds report that Dearborn is considering replacing two of its most popular SUVs with aluminum versions. One candidate is the Expedition, which would make sense considering that the current model (like the two preceding generations and the fullsize Bronco before it) is based on the F-150's underpinnings. Another is the Explorer, which was traditionally based on the Ranger pickup but went with a car-like unibody chassis in its current iteration. If the Explorer does go the way of aluminum, don't expect it to be a part of its very next update, which is likely due too soon for such major changes.
It would stand to reason that, if the Expedition were to go aluminum, so would the next-generation Lincoln Navigator. Ditto the MKT together with the Explorer. But those aren't likely to be the only models in contention for aluminum construction. Like any other automaker, Ford is under pressure to steadily reduce its carbon emissions and improve its fuel economy figures, prompting it to look at a whole range of measures - including more efficient engines, lower rolling-resistance tires, active aerodynamics and lightweight construction. Expect aluminum to play a big part in that equation moving forward.
Ford spills SEMA all over its Expeditions
Sat, 01 Nov 2014If you're going to this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas, it's going to be tough to miss the Ford booth, simply for its size. The Blue Oval is bringing over a dozen customized examples of the 2015 Mustang and a quintet of modded Transits. The latest announced addition is a trio of upgraded 2015 Expeditions showing different takes on the recently refreshed SUV.
Any vehicle tuned by Dub Magazine needs to ride on massive wheels, and the Expedition (pictured above) that it has for SEMA is no exception. The SUV has 26-inch Dropstars wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires, and, making them look even larger, the suspension is also lowered. The rest of the custom has some mild upgrades like mesh grilles in front, tinted windows, an integrated radar detector and new upholstery inside.
Tijn wants to boost the performance of the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 for its take on the Expedition. The company claims to add 40 horsepower to bring total output to a claimed 405 by upgrading the engine with a charge cooler from Vortech Engineering, a custom side exhaust and a custom tune. To match the extra grunt, the SUV also gets bigger brakes, an Air Lift suspension and 24-inch, copper-colored wheels with custom fender flares.
