1930 Ford Model A Street Rod. By first glance, it has a Rat Rod look. But at
closer examination, this classic has a ton of money put into it, with the best
of the best parts and accessories used in the build. If you want to ‘blend in’
in a crowd, this may not be the car for you! At any angle, the Model A just
looks ‘right’. Quintessential in every aspect! A Throwback to a much simpler
time, that all of us would like to go back to! The build began August, 2006. It
took about 3 years to complete. There is about 450 miles on the build of this
car since its completion. It is a Bruiser Body, from Lake Havasu City, AZ. The
unfinished “rolling Chassis” and body shipped to the door was $16,800 in 2006!
Keep that in mind-unfinished! Without Engine, Trans, Interior, gauges, etc!
What increases the cool factor of this Ford is the 401 V8 Buick Nailhead
engine, with the 3 x 2 Carburetors, connected to a brand new Tremec 5 speed
Manual Transmission. I am unsure to the horsepower rating, but it is quick!
Smoke the tires fast, and won’t hurt you at the pump… A great combination!
Below I have highlighted the Specs & NEW
parts used in the build: Bruiser Enterprises Reproduction 1929

I have a folder packed full of receipts to document the enormous investment put
forth to create this machine. Make no mistake, this car is the real deal that
will satisfy the fussiest buyer. It runs great! Straight down the road with no
shimmy or vibrations. With the small steering wheel, and rack and pinion
steering, makes this rod much easier to drive then you would think. And the distinct
sound of the Nailhead is just awesome. This is a tremendous opportunity to
acquire a turn key Street Rod and a fraction of the build cost, while not

take a look at my feedback. Bid with confidence! It was 100% until a few weeks
ago, when a malicious ebayer left me negative feedback over a $45.00 die cast
model car! Apparently, a windshield wiper was damaged in shipping overseas. I
attempted to rectify the situation, but the buyer would not respond or contact
me at all, and left me negative feedback! Located

J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.
Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality
Wed, 01 May 2013The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.
