27 Ford Model T, steel body clean clear title. Car has been chopped, channeled, custom frame with kick ups front and rear, super bell axel, suicide front suspension, coilover rear suspension, ford 9" rear end 3.00 gear, 292 gm inline 6 Saginaw 3 speed stick with a hand clutch. Has sprint car type cowl steering, new friction shocks up front, new wheels and tires, 16" firestones all around.
I just drove this car 992 miles on the Bourbon Blitzkrieg Run, and to Beatersville car show without a single issue. Averaged 22 mpg the entire trip. The only gauges it has are temp and oil pressure. Get in and drive anywhere with not issues. Steering will wander on bad roads due to no weight on the front end and bias ply tires, however it's not terrible. I drove the car at 75 mph the entire trip last weekend.
The front window is plexiglass and will come with some extra sheets as its a little narrow. There is no top and no other windows, the doors are latched from the inside. I find it easier to climb over. Remember leg room is limited in this, I'm 6'1" 210lbs and I fit but it is tight. There is minimal foot room on the driverside by the pedals, work boots will not work for driving this. There are dents/rust/patch panels, this is a rat rod...not a pristine show car although it does get awards.
Buyer is to arrange pickup or shipping. The vehicle is for sale locally as well, so the auction may end early if sold. Also interested in trades for other pre-65 cars and trucks, trades must come to me.

Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017
Wed, 13 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.
2015 Ford Edge debuts with fresh tech inside and out

Ford officially unveiled the all-new, third-generation Edge today at its Dearborn home, announcing that the latest version of the popular crossover will ride on the same CD4 architecture that underpins the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ. The Edge will also be the first Ford-badged product to come standard with EcoBoost power.
Rowan Atkinson crashes at Goodwood Revival
Sun, 14 Sep 2014To quote Harry Hogge (played by Robert Duvall) in Days of Thunder, "rubbin, son, is racin'." That can mean some unfortunate damage to high-end racing machinery, which may be repaired easily enough in stock car racing, but when it comes to vintage racing, the stakes can be that much higher. And yet incidents do occur, like at this weekend's Goodwood Revival.
Among the many competitors taking part in the retro racing event in England was none other than Rowan Atkinson, the actor perhaps best known for playing Mr. Bean. Driving a classic Ford Falcon Sprint in the Shelby Cup event, Atkinson (pictured above at the 2012 revival) reportedly crashed head-on into another car on track.
According to reports, the two cars up spun out. The driver in between managed to avoid a pile-up, but Atkinson couldn't steer clear and hit the obstructing vehicle. Fortunately Rowan walked away unscathed (and, we imagine, in a humorous manner), but while we don't know how extensive the damage was to the Falcon, it was enough to take it out of the race.
