Intro
All humans have the same dream of the urge for complete freedom without boundaries. The wind in our hair, the rush of speed, and the exhilaration of G-forces pressing on our bodies from a Harley to a convertible race car. The need to satisfy these most basic human instincts began to blossom with the invention of the modern automobile. We all have the need to fly without leaving the ground! This car will make this happen for you.
The 1932 Ford continues to have a huge impact on the automotive world – not least when it comes to muscle cars. When we think of a 1932 Ford Roadster, we think of a beautiful show piece that can be driven on the street, or at Bonneville, but as a bonus this car was build to be driven either way.
This spicy little hot rod masterpiece started with a 1932 ford roadster body and it’s based on the distinctive lines of a salt flat race car currently under construction.
The vision and engineering that went into this car has a great deal of technical know-how and creativity: specially engineered one-off components, and characteristic Moon disc-styled wheels, lend the car unmistakable Bonneville flair.
Almost every young American had a modified ride of some sort back in the 1940's and 1950's. The most coveted was to be the 1932 Ford roadster. Usually fenderless and often hoodless, these stripped down lil’ gems tore up the streets of our little town.
Fast forward to the 1960s and 1970s when drag strip and street racing etiquette was more important than your social or economic background. Fat tires, pro-street rear ends, huge motors and blowers went into our beloved lil’ roadsters. The barn finds and classified ads often had non-running and complete basket case 1932 roadsters for $500 or less! With a roll bar and the aforementioned powerhouse drive trains, it was RACE TIME. The look was often primer or bright red with some local sponsor painted on the side.
In the 1980's and 1990's was a sad time for Hot Rods. Fuel injected motors were scavenged from wrecked “sports cars” and shoehorned into the engine bays of our favorite rod. The best thing to come from the 1980s was a real need for quality reproductions of the 1932 Ford. Independent companies began to design and produce affordable body reproductions of the 32 “Deuce” Roadster. With these bodies readily available and full roadworthy and safe chassis in production , it was once again ON for the Roadster craze.
Current year, the economy is in the toilet and our garages may have more assets in them than what is our bank accounts do! Show quality paint jobs, custom fabricated billet parts, amazing one-off wheels and interiors that rival those of Rolls Royce.
The Hot Rod community is made up of as many wealthy business owners, and investors as it is the garage mechanic or “gear head”. EVERYBODY WISHES THAT THEY COULD HAVE A 1932 STEEL BODY ROADSTER SHOWCAR…..PERIOD!!
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: This is a project car that is 98.5% complete and is registered as a street car with a title. The car will need to gone over to make sure that you are comfortable with what has been completed so far. I purchased the car with the intentions of finishing it, but over projects have gotten in the way and now I have another business opportunity that I want to focus on.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.
Ford F-150 bumps Camry from top of Cars.com American Made Index
Tue, 25 Jun 2013With July 4th just around the corner, what better time could there be for Cars.com to announce that the Ford F-150 is the Most American car of 2013? This may be especially true since it was the Toyota Camry, a car produced by a company based in Japan, that had held the top spot from 2009 to 2012.
Cars.com compiles its Most American list by considering the amount of parts each vehicle uses that come from America, where it's final assembly takes place and how many units per year are sold. "While the assembly point and domestic parts content of the F-150 didn't change from 2012-2013, vehicle sales are responsible for bumping the F-150 to the top spot," according to Patrick Olsen, Editor-in-Chief of Cars.com.
As far as automakers go (as opposed to individual models), Toyota retains the top spot it held in 2012, with General Motors, Chrysler, Ford and Honda (in that order) rounding out the list. The motivation behind this list each year, according to Olsen, is "to help car shoppers understand that 'American-Made' extends beyond just the Detroit three" and because "a study we conducted in 2012 indicated that 25 percent of shoppers surveyed preferred to buy American."
