Up for sale is my 1933 Ford pickup truck. The cab, bed, and grille shell are all original 33 Ford steel pieces. They are all very solid with any/all rust removed and patched. It has less than perfect bodywork but is very presentable as a "driver quality" hotrod. It has pitting and minor dents here and there but is overall pretty good. The cab has been chopped approx. 6 inches and channeled 4 inches. The bed has had the floor raised to accommodate the rear kick up in the frame. The grille has been sectioned 2 inches at the bottom to allow for better ground clearance. It is painted with a single stage flat burgundy enamel. The belt lines and firewall are painted with single stage satin black. The suspension/frame and wheels have all been painted with single stage satin black as well. The frame is original Ford Model A from the cowl forwards. From the cowl back is 2x3 box tubing. The frame is very strong and well built. Front suspension is a SuperBell 4" dropped I-beam axle with a Posies spring. Original 40 Ford split wishbones hold it in place. Hotrod style tube shocks hung from Ford F1 style shock/headlight mounts. 40 Ford front brakes with fresh wheel cylinders, springs, shoes, etc. Cross steer set up with a vega box. So-cal steering dampener. Handles very smooth. The front wheels are original 16" Ford spoke wheels with 600-16 bias ply tires. The rear wheels are original 18" Ford spoke wheels with 600-18 bias ply tires. All tires have tubes and are balanced well. Original 32 Ford truck center caps have been painted to match the wheels. Engine is a GM performance crate 350 small block chevy. It's the "Mexican" block which supposedly has the higher nickel content in the casting. RV cam. Vintage Offenhauser 3x2 intake with 3 freshly rebuilt Holley 94 2bbl carbs. They work off an Eelco progressive linkage. They are tuned very well and fire right up. Idles very smooth. There is an Edelbrock mechanical choke cable that runs to the dash but I have literally never used it. Homemade lakes style headers with internal baffles. They have been wrapped so you won't burn your leg off if you accidentally lean up against them after it's been running. Original Delco 12v generator was recently rebuilt and charges the new sealed battery located under the bed. The engine has 2317 trouble free miles since completion. Transmission is a 350Turbo. Shifts very smooth. New Lokar buttonless shifter with an old glass door knob for the shift knob. Rearend is an early GM g-body rear axle. It's located by a pair of hairpin radius rods and a panhard bar. A Posies 40 Ford rear spring gives it a smooth ride. The rear brakes are good. It has a lower gear ratio so very smooth/low RPM on the highway. Still plenty of get-up-and-go off the line. Engine is cooled by a 65 Mustang radiator that is copper/brass construction and is new. 12 gallon poly gas tank is in the rear of the bed. The truck has been professionally wired with a Speedway 12 circuit wiring harness. all wiring is hidden or loomed with a factory style loom so you don't see any of it. All running lights, headlights, turn signals, hazards, and brights work as they should. New Equus black face gauges. Water temp, oil pressure, speedo and odometer work. There is a working cigarette lighter in the dash for a cell phone charger. Original Guide 682c headlights. 33 Ford truck tail lights. New black automotive grade carpet was installed. Seat bottoms are from a 60's VW bug. The seat back is custom made for the truck. Very comfortable to ride in. I am 6'3" tall and fit okay. Steering wheel is a 13" mooneyes 3 spoke. Lokar throttle and brake pedals. Door handles work as they should. Working cowl vent and pop-out windshield with automotive safety glass, not plexi or lexan. There is a modified hand operated windshield wiper on the drivers side if you get caught in the rain. The bed sports a real wood bed floor and oak side rails that have been stained/finished very well. All in all this is a very well built hot rod truck that is meant to be driven. It is a fresh build and has not been shown or even pinstriped so it's your chance to finish it and show it/drive it as your own. It has been adult owned and maintained so it has not been beat on or mis-used. I have a clear Ohio title for it in my name. It is located approx. 25 miles north of Cincinnati Ohio. I will ship over seas after funds have cleared the bank. A $500 deposit is due within 48 hrs of auction ending. If you have less than a 10 positive feedback score, please contact me first prior to bidding. Please email me with any questions. I reserve the right to end this auction early as it is listed for sale locally. Thanks for looking!

2013 Shelby 1000 unleashes its 1,200 horsepower ahead of NY show reveal
Fri, 22 Mar 2013True story: Last fall, I had the opportunity to spend a week with Ford's new 2013 Shelby GT500 - the Blue Oval's factory Mustang with 662 horsepower and 631 pound-feet of torque. It's an amazing beast, to be sure. I'm not sure if it was Michigan's damp streets strewn with potholes and wet leaves, but at no point did I ever say to myself, "You know, Ford is on to a really good thing here, but what it really needs is about twice the power." And yet, for people in warmer climes with infrastructure in better nick - or for those whose muscle cars live their lives out on the track, there's apparently sufficient demand to warrant just such a beast.
Quick studies will recall that Shelby American launched its 1000 last year to commemorate its 50th anniversary, but it is returning to the New York Auto Show with a fresh version based on the 2013 GT500 I drove. The 2013 Shelby 1000 whips up 1,200 horsepower on pump gas thanks to beefed-up forced induction, engine internals and cooling. Wisely, it also incorporates an adjustable suspension and big brake package to make sure those ponies have the best chance being safely deployed to the ground.
What price the world's most powerful "production" muscle car? $154,995 for starters - donor GT500 not included. What, no convertible variant?
Hot Wheels Ford Transit Connect is worth more if we keep it in the box
Wed, 06 Nov 2013If the 2014 Transit Connect is anything like it's utile current-generation predecessor, and we suspect it is, it will undoubtedly be one of the most functional vehicles in North America. Ford has used the occasion of SEMA to turn the TC in to things that both make use of that functionality, and occasionally sort of wreck it in the name of good old-fashioned fun. The Ford Hot Wheels Transit Connect most certainly falls into that second category.
Most TC owners might cite the vehicle's massive cargo capacity as its top positive trait, though in the case of this wide-bodied Transit said space has been sapped in the name of a 55-inch television screen, a massive Hot Wheels drag strip (continuing a popular theme at SEMA this year) and custom storage for dozens of models from one's personal hot wheels collection. Designers have also plucked the grippy Recaro seats from the Focus ST, and thrown in a pair of 18-inch tablet screens for connectivity on the go.
Naturally, the Transit Connect wouldn't be an appropriate SEMA vehicle, or Hot Wheels name-bearer, if it weren't wearing an eye-popping appearance package. Additional homage to the Focus RS can be found in the blazing blue and orange front fascia and bumpers, while 20-inch wheels make sure the wider (four-inches in front and six-inches in the back) Transit Connect sits just right. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder-engine that powers the Hot Wheels TC ensures that the concept is more show than go, but you probably had that pegged from your first look, anyway.
2015 Ford F-150 to get 2.7-liter EcoBoost?
Mon, 30 Dec 2013As we prepare for the arrival of the all-new, next-generation Ford F-150, rumors about the new truck are picking up steam. Naturally, many of said rumors aren't just related to the way the truck will look (it's expected to take design cues from the Atlas concept shown above), they're tied to what's going to motivate the Blue Oval mainstay, with Ford's EcoBoost range likely to play an increasingly key role. While we're still expecting the current 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 to retain its position as a premium alternative to Ford's naturally aspirated V6 and V8, a Canadian automotive news site is proposing that the Dearborn automaker is also preparing a new, more fuel-efficient downsized EcoBoost option.
Autos.ca is reporting that a new, 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 could find its way into the lighter, aluminum-intensive truck. The new engine supposedly makes use of asymmetrical turbos to generate 320 horsepower and 370 pound-feet of torque - substantially more impressive numbers than the current 3.7-liter base engine's 302 ponies and 278 lb-ft - while offering improved fuel economy and emissions. The new 2.7 EcoBoost (internally dubbed "Nano") isn't expected to supplant the naturally aspirated V6 as the F-150's base engine, it's expected to slot in above directly it.
Naturally, we're prescribing more than a few grains of salt to go with these rumors, at least until Ford debuts the next F-150 at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, a reveal we'll be covering in a mere two weeks.
