What you are looking at is a 59 Ford with a TON of patina.  It was to be built for a rat rod event this Fall but we have aborted the project due to 3 full blown 100 pt. restorations that have arrived.  The trunk is super solid.  The passenger floor board is the worst, drivers has some issues.  (if not doing a full restoration it wouldn't take more than a few hours to weld some new sheet-metal in).  The frame is structurally strong, a few small side holes that I did take pictures of.  There is no motor, no transmitting or pumpkin in the rear (has axles and 9" housing).  This is a roller.   Headliner is in great shape.  Has some seats, not sure from what.  Does also have an exhaust system with a glass pack (single)

This car DOES come with a hood.  It was off in preparation of cleaning up under the hood.  

The original plan was to keep this car looking exactly this way but update the drive line and brakes. We have a 10:1 big cam 390 FE, top loader 4 speed and 3:89 locker rear that were going to go in.  If this type of build is something you would be interested in, we can do that as well.  With this car being a run of the mill 4 door, I do not suggest a full resto.  While we do that, typically its convertibles, hardtops and or wagons.  We will also do a patina hot rod.  So if something around the 450HP mark with everything updated in this car is something you want, we can make that happen.  As we dont just specialize in 59 Fords, we do currently have 2 59 Builds at this time and this car would take a few months to get to.


Either way, you are looking at a potentially really fun tire-burning patina rat rod 59 Ford!

Here are a LOT Of HIGH RES pictures:

You must pick up within 1 week of auction end.  I CAN deliver however I am only one guy with a trailer and truck.  So it will be expensive and you must have a good place to unload and move the car yourself.  You are ultimately responsible for picking the car up.  Please bid to win. If you have feedback of less than 10, I have to cancel your bid unless you contact me!

2015 Ford Focus ST gets sleeker style, improved dynamics

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

The Brits don't really have a major auto show these days. Not in a conventional sense, anyway, with stationary vehicles under floodlights in a closed exposition space. What they do have, you could argue, is much better: the Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the public can view the latest machinery not only under an open sky, but in motion as well, speeding up Lord March's front lawn. And this year, British automakers are rolling in with some very enticing new metal.
In the past few days alone we've confirmed the McLaren 650S GT3 and MSO, Jaguar F-Type Project 7, Range Rover Sport SVR and Ariel Ace will all be revealed for the first time at Goodwood this weekend. Ford isn't, strictly speaking, a British automaker, but for all its history in the UK, it might as well. So it's chosen Goodwood as the site to unveil its refreshed Focus ST.
The upgraded Blue Oval hot hatch still packs a 2.0-liter turbo four with 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque driving through a six-speed manual to the front wheels, so we're not expecting much change in measurable performance. But Ford has given the new Focus ST a new front suspension setup and a new electric power-assisted steering rack that combine to promise improved handling.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy

Sun, 31 Aug 2014

Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).

Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
