1931 Model A Ford Rat Rod Truck
This extended cab truck was custom fabricated by Image 803 Customs in Pelion, South Carolina. The cab started as a 1931 model A 4 door car and was modified to an extended cab truck, you can see the before and after in the pictures. Everything on this truck is brand new except the cab which is an original 1931 model A. The frame was custom build from scratch by Image 803 and features speed holes in the front frame rails and has been primed and painted brown. The interior of the cab was completely replaced with 1X1 steel tubing and a new sheet metal floor and tunnel. The truck also has an Image 803 custom wood top (which is patterned right after the original top) and cloth cover with snaps. It has a 4 inch drop front axle with Wilwood disc brakes and new Coker white wall tires. The rear end of the truck is from an 02 ford explorer and has positive traction and disc brakes. The truck has air ride on the rear with a Vivair compressor and 4 gallon tank, along with a set of train horns mounted under the wood bed floor. The floor actually lifts up like a hood showing all the air ride, valves, battery and aluminum fuel cell. There are 4 valves on the truck, two per air bag for maximum control and leveling. The truck has HID lights custom built into the original 1931 car light buckets. The motor in the truck was built by Johnson Machine Engines in Johnson SC and is a built SBC 350 (Mother Thumper Cam and flat top pistons) with turbo 400 transmission (Lokar shifter). The engine has a Weiand tunnel ram on it with 2 Holley 450 Carbs and the exhaust is a set of Sanderson Zoomies. The quad gage in the truck is an Auto Meter. As you can see no expense was spared for this truck. The truck runs and drives great and has about 1000 miles on it with a clear title. This is a custom one of a kind rat rod...... Bad A$$ machine. I buy and sell rat rods all over the US and this is one of the most well built machines I've had..... Bobby 817-907-2881 |

Ford looks to space robots to improve car-to-car communications [w/video]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Ford has partnered with St. Petersburg Polytechnic University for three years to research various kinds of connected vehicle communications. The university tie-up is part of its study of space robots, NASA systems created to enable space-to-Earth communication, and the university's own development of systems that enable communication between the International Space State and Earth.
The objective is for Ford to engineer layers of robust networks and redundancy systems that will allow your car to speak to other cars, to emergency vehicles, to infrastructure like traffic lights and buildings, and to the cloud. Benefits would come in just about every area of transit, from avoiding accidents, to getting medical workers to an accident more quickly, to improving the flow of traffic during rush hour.
Check out the press release below for details on what Ford wants to learn from the JUSTIN Humanoid and NASA Robonaut R2, and a video of technical leader Oleg Gusikhin discussing his interest in the project.
Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
Ford previews new C-Max ahead of upcoming debut
Mon, 15 Sep 2014Looking at a Ford Focus? These days you can get it as a five-door hatch, a four-door sedan, or... that's all. European buyers don't even get our sedan, but they do get a wagon. And while the three-door hatch, two-door coupe and two-door cabrio have long since ended production, buyers around the world can also get the company's larger C-Max. And now, like the Focus upon which it's based, Ford is preparing to roll out a new version.
The tall wagon (or small minivan, depending on your perspective) is being treated to what Ford says is "an extreme makeover." Details to accompany the teaser image above remain few and far between, but following the spy shots we recently posted, it looks destined for some of the same visual updates as Ford rolled out on the 2015 Focus, with "even more refinement, practicality and technology."
Like the Mercedes B-Class, which is only available Stateside as an EV, American buyers can only get the C-Max in electrified form, either as the C-Max Hybrid or C-Max Energi. Overseas buyers, however, will be able to choose from a range of powertrain options and two wheelbase lengths - the longer of which boasts seven seats and the Grand C-Max name. (Remember when Chrysler did the same with its minivans?) Both are set to debut on September 17, so watch this space. After that, we'll expect to see it on display at the Paris Motor Show.
