Up for sale is a 1931 Ford model A coupe. The chassis is custom made from 2x3 steel tubing that houses the flathead ford backed with a 5 speed T5 transmission. The front suspension is a Speedway Motors tubular drop with radius hairpin rods with a cross style leaf spring in the front. The spindles are early ford with a late model disc brake conversion on them. Steering is a F100 box and column. The rear suspension is a Speedway Motors street rod 4 link with a panhard bar. The rearend is a ford 8" with all stock internals with stock drum brakes on the back. The rear does have some QA1 coil over shocks and springs. The wheels are American Racing Salt Flat Specials with 165r15 fronts and some reproduction Hurst Pie crust slicks on the back, and the rears do have a DOT number on them to be legal. The body has been chopped (roughly) 4 inches and channeled about 3 inches over the frame. The internal structure of the body is 1x1" steel tube with the roof having a reproduction wood kit to hold the original style vinyl top in. The front windshield is the only window in the car and it does still tilt outward into the cowl area. The master cylinder is in the dash for a clean look also. The gauges are Lincoln, some which work. The flooring is cast aluminum sections from a firetruck that have been cut to fit, and the seat is some padding over wood and blankets stapled on. There is also two aircraft style seatbelts. All the lights work, headlights, running, brake, and turn signals. The engine is a early flathead with a 12V alternator that looks like a generator. The starter is also newer 12v. The engine has a 4-71 blower on it with no rotors inside. Two strombergs on top top off the engine with a set of lake style headers expelling the spent fumes. Car runs great, very nice to cruise in and gets looks everywhere it goes. The engine holds good oil pressure and runs extremely cool. Car is available to be looked at in person in Greenwood, IN with an appointment as I am always traveling. Please ask any questions before bidding.

Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.
First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."
Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
