Clarkston, Washington, United States
|
Up for auction is a fresh nostalgic built, 1927 Ford Roadster Pickup. This Little Roadster is ready for the Books. Just finished in Ford's Washington Blue, with a little of the old, and a little of the new. A Ford Model T frame is the base of this Roadster, with 1941 Ford running gear front, and rear. Model A steering column, and box steer the car down the road. The front end has been extended in front of the spring to give it a longer, and more hot rod look. Old style friction shocks were also used for that traditional look. Modern coil over shocks support the car, from the Banjo rear end, with shortened torque tube, and struts. All new juice brakes, with 40 Ford pedal assembly has been adapted to the frame, so stock style clutch could also be used. The fresh Rohde built, 1951 Flathead, with stainless valves, adjustable lifters, 60 over bore, Winfield Cam, Eddie Meyers dull Intake, 48 Carbs, Edelbrock aluminum heads, Mallory dual point Distributor, with stainless block huger headers, and custom bell exhaust, makes a good running package. The engine starts easy, and runs strong. No heating problems with this Flathead. It's running a aluminum radiator with stock fan assembly painted to match. The traditional 39 gear box shifts good, and the new clutch is smooth. The original steel Roadster body has been moved back 5" on the frame, and a custom box has been added, giving the car a smoother look. Shorty windshield posts, with custom windshield add to the cool of this car. The inner body tub has been skinned with metal, powder coated to match, and polished Bomber seats top off the interior. (Custom) A set of original Ford 16" wire wheels, Powder Coated in the same Washington Blue, look great. A cool third light center front is a park light. Original model T's lights are up front , and 32 Ford tail lights are on the rear. The cars underside is as clean as the top side, (Nice). (Please look at pictures closely, and zoom in) This car is titled as a 1927 Ford Roadster. Buyer is responsible for shipping and all shipping costs. I will help with loading on my end, and in anyway I can. For questions please call the builder. Bill (208)750-0000

Ford says utility vehicles are key to global growth
Tue, 26 Nov 2013While most of us believe that small, fuel efficient cars are the key to global expansion for US automakers, Jim Farley, Ford's vice president of Global Marketing, thinks otherwise. Last week, we attended an exclusive sneak preview of the Ford Edge Concept in advance of the Los Angeles Auto Show, and Farley told us that it's actually utility vehicles that will help the Blue Oval gain market share overseas. "There is no other segment in our industry that is growing like utilities," he said. "We expect over the next five years this full family of [utility] vehicles to really drive our growth as a company."
And Farley has the numbers to back it up, too. Ford projects overall automotive sales to grow 23 percent from 2012 to 2017, but the company's utility vehicles are expected to boom by an impressive 41 percent during that same period. Much of that growth will be in China, where Ford estimates its utility sales will explode. "The biggest opportunity for us globally for utilities is in China," Farley said. "China utility growth is expected to more than double from where it is today to 2017, which isn't that far away." Most astounding is that Ford projects its own utility sales in China will eventually increase by more than 2,000 percent when smaller crossovers, such as the EcoSport and Kuga (sold as the Escape in North America), and the Edge and Explorer, are factored in.
Ford's VP also expects utilities to lead the way in the struggling European market. "With all the difficulties of the European market, there is one segment that has actually expanded in volume over the last several years even though the market is way down, and that's utilities," Farley told us. Ford estimates that their utility sales will grow 65 percent in Europe from 2012-2017. "The utility segment is projected to grow we think about thirty percent between now and 2017 in Europe, and we think we are going to grow twice that rate as a brand," Farley continued.
2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost
Wed, 19 Nov 2014
A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
