This car has been a consistent show winner. This car runs great and looks great! I purchased this car in 1995 and have enjoyed it ever since. This car has always been garage kept and has only seen rain twice. The engine runs great and the transmission shifts smooth. This street rod has an original uncut body and fiberglass fenders. The interior is tan Mohair with the dash sporting Dakota Digital equipment mounted on a solid oak hand rubbed dashboard. There is also a tilt steering wheel for driving comfort. The radio is hidden under the dash (for aesthetics) but still within easy reach and is equipped with a power antenna. The rear window can be opened providing additional ventilation (this is a rare item) the front windshield also tilts open. The carpet is new and professionally done.

The power for this street rod is provided by a 327ci Chevy engine bolted to a 350-turbo transmission with a shift kit and a 2500-rpm stall converter. The exhaust system consists of Sanderson Stainless steel headers, which have been ceramic, coated. There are also Flow master mufflers and the exhaust ends with chrome Megs exhaust tips. Cooling of the engine is accomplished with a Walker Radiator equipped with two additional Spal fans used during slow moving parades. The engine is fueled by an Edlebrock carburetor and intake. The engine compartment has chrome value covers, chrome starter, chrome alternator, chrome pulleys and a chrome fan blade, chrome radiator hose neck, a chrome coil and a chrome dip stick The ignition is provided by a Mallory electronic ignition distributor. The plug wires are a contrasting color held in place by a chrome wire harness. The engine block has been detailed in Chevy red with contrasting black bolts throughout.

The suspension consists of a Four link front and rear suspension a 3" dropped front axle with Mono Spring, and a Ford 9" rear with coil over shocks. The brakes are Disc in front and Drum in the rear. The gas tank is 15 gallons and mounted in the trunk still leaving room for your stuff.

This Street Rod has always attracted tremendous attention and is a great ride.

Ford Transit production fires up, American Pickers among first takers

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

Not long ago, the History Channel showed a seemingly unending stream of World War II documentaries, but it made a switch a few years ago to include an increasing mix of 'reality' programming. American Pickers was one of the early attempts at this new formula, with cameras following hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz around the country in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as they tracked down collectibles and "rusty gold" for their Iowa shop, Antique Archeology. The show has since gone on to become one of the channel's most popular programs.
Starting in the new episode airing tonight, the affable hosts will swap their Benz for a 2015 Ford Transit, a nicely timed bit of marketing to coincide with the launch of the model's assembly at the Blue Oval's Kansas City Assembly Plant, which also kicks off this week. Ford is touting 2,000 new jobs created as part of its $1.1-billion investment in the plant.
No strangers to product placement, the guys from American Pickers say their switch away from the Sprinter is because they wanted to balance cargo capacity and fuel economy to make the most of their cross-country jaunts. They opted for the largest Transit available with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof, giving them 487 cubic feet of cargo room. Hauling power comes from a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel engine with 190 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque and a six-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Fittingly, the van wears the same Antique Archaeology logo over white paint as their old Sprinter.

A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
