You are looking at a 23 T fiberglass roadster. This car was run at the Maxton mile for several years and has been parked for several years. This car has a 140" wb and was set up for a sbc and auto trans. it has a 8.8 with 270 gear and I assume a spool. Look at the photos and it will show a tuneau cover, very nice 4" drop axle, nice fiberglass nose. The side panels are steel and the hood is fiberglass. The front tires look like new but I would check the dates before You run them. This car was set up for running the mile course. The previous owner told me he ran a mild 305 with a turbo 350 and ran 146. With a hot little 350 this little car would probably run 180 or better. I have run over 200 at Bonneville and I can tell you there is nothing like feeling that chute open at over 200. This car will need some work! I would add some extra supports and clean up some of the welds. It would need up grades like new seat belts, fire system, ect. There is no Gauges in the car and no wiring. The Kirky Seat is small but the roll cage is large. I am 6'1" and fit well in the cage. It has corvair steering and all the steering system looks new. Rear tires would need to be replaced. Most drivers at the mile run drag radials on the back. I would put skinny front runners on the front. I have a Bonneville car which I just ran at Ohio and will be at Bonneville in Aug with it. I am selling this car because I don't need two. If you have a hot little sb sitting around ---well there we go! Buy it fix it up and join us at Bonneville this year. Please ask questions , I have a good ebay score and don't rip anyone off. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. This car does not have a title.

3dCarbon now offering body kit for Ford Fusion
Tue, 01 Oct 2013A factory-backed body kit by 3dCarbon is now available to Ford Fusion owners who want their car to stand out from the crowd while not being too flashy. The body kit adds a more aggressive front spoiler, side skirts, rear body trim and spoiler that are, in fact, integrated quite nicely into the Fusion's already-comely styling, just as 3dCarbon claims. All Fusions with the kit also receive dual exhaust ports with the stainless-steel exhaust surrounds usually reserved for the Titanium package Fusion EcoBoost models.
A nice detail of 3dCarbon's injection-molded urethane body kit is that it has undergone crash testing to certify that it can withstand crashes up to five miles per hour. Because of this, the kit is warrantied by 3dCarbon for five years or 50,000 miles, much like Ford's warranty on its own parts. In fact, the kit is available through participating Ford dealers and can be financed through Ford Motor Credit. Buyers can purchase the kit - pre-painted or unpainted - and install it themselves, or it can be purchased with a new Ford Fusion and installed at the dealer, pre-painted to factory specifications. Of course, it can also be ordered directly from the source. Take a look at the press release below for more detailed information on the body kit, and let us know what you think of it in Comments.
Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.
