Up for sale is my '35 Ford Rat Rod truck. The body is all steel with a hand fabricated bed, all of the cab, hood, grill and radiator shell are original parts from this Washington state farm truck. The body has been chopped and channeled about 5" and the frame has been stretched about 6". That said, the truck is well sorted mechanically and drives very well, longer trips are not an issue. Windshield is fixed mounted with a functioning windshield wiper.
Drive train consists of a 355" SBC, stock rebuild with an HEI distributor and 650 Edelbrock carb. Trans is a TH350 with a Ford 8" rear and Torque Thrust II wheels.
Suspension is a dropped front end on coil-overs front and rear. Disk brakes on the front and drums rear. The bed interior is finished in wood, not the pretiest but it works fine, has a 12 gallon fuel cell and a taneu cover. The hood and two-piece hinged taneu both operate with hidden latch pulls.
Interior is pretty spartan, original dash with aluminum insert and aluminum door panels, Mustang II seats and Camaro steering column, CD player in the glove box with speaker boxes behind the seats, and some dynamat to cover the sheetmetal. All windows are good but it does need a new drivers side regulator, maybe $60. The window goes up and down but the regulator is stripped so the window will drop by gravity. I just leave it down.
Overall the truck is in very good shape, absolutely no rust, and straight body. The paint is garage sprayed with some imperfections, but looks good. Truck runs well, although the trans and diff have a leak and the SBC pushes some oil past two cyclinders. Looks like a simple valve seal so should be minor.
Truck is titled in California with a legit VIN number. Please ask all questions before bidding

Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift

Tue, 09 Sep 2014


Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
