Clean on 2040-cars
miami, Florida, United States
MAKE AN OFFER AND THIS Easily Restorable well maintained 1970 E-200 ¾ ton van, in line 6 w/automatic transmission, with working a/c, cruise control, back up camera, am/fm radio w/cassette CAN BE YOURS. The van is in excellent running condition where no expense was ever spared for maintenance, and can be restored to its original beauty since the body and frame are intact. The van was originally a work van for about 10 years, then I installed a bench seat and began using it as a family van, for school, shopping, church, scouts, camping, school pick up and the like, and was in daily use until I was injured. Although I am now a retired disabled veteran I was about to begin restoring the van, until an injury, which now limits my activity. The original engine was completely overhauled on its 39th birthday. It has its dents and scratches and cosmetic problems, however considering that has been in daily service for almost 45 years this is expected. The van is an eye stopper, and it definitely attracts attention. I can’t take it out without people walking up to the van when it is parked, or some people just engage in conversation at stop lights, etc. If you don’t want to re store it immediately, you can just drive it until such time. When you check around you will see that there are not many of them left, at least not in this condition. The Kelly book value (http//www.nadaguides.com/classic cars, on this van is between $3,000 and $10,000 depending on condition, and/or restoration done. Currently the van has not been restored, therefore the price is in the low retail of $3,000, and I am open to offers. Contact don at 305,554-0532. Having working A/C in a vehicle this old is an accomplishment in itself. If you can find a better 1970 Classic - Buy It.

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.
Ford-sponsored survey says a third of Brits have snapped a 'selfie' while driving [w/videos]
Fri, 08 Aug 2014Talking on the phone while driving isn't advisable, and texting while driving is downright dangerous. Considering those truths, the fact that we even need to point this out this is incredibly disturbing: taking "selfies" while behind the wheel is exceptionally stupid. But, it's a thing that a third of 18- to 24-year-old British drivers have copped to doing, according to a new study from Ford.
Ford, through its Driving Skills for Life program, surveyed 7,000 smartphone owners from across Europe, all aged between 18 and 24, and found that young British drivers were more likely to snap a selfie while behind the wheel than their counterparts in Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Spain and Belgium.
According to the study, the average selfie takes 14 seconds, which, while traveling at 60 miles per hour, is long enough to travel over the length of nearly four football fields (the Ford study uses soccer fields, but we translated it to football, because, you know, America). That's an extremely dangerous distance to not be focused on the road.
Chip Foose tastefully enhances his personal Ford GT
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Typically, we'd expect a vehicle from 2006 to fall well short of a more modern vehicle, both in terms of performance and style. Of course, the Ford GT is not your average offering from the Bush era. That's doubly true when the 2006 GT in question belongs to one Chip Foose.
Purchased by his wife as a 50th birthday present, Foose is showing his custom, personalized GT at the 2014 SEMA Show. The 5.4-liter supercharged V8 breathes a bit easier thanks to a full Magnaflow Performance exhaust, but Foose's GT isn't all about the performance.
Instead, the car customizer extraordinaire has focused on tasteful aesthetic enhancement, tweaking the rear end by removing the bumper and trimming the frame extensions. The wheels, meanwhile, are one-off aluminum alloys, designed by Foose himself. Like the stripes, the wheels feature orange accenting.
