I'm car builder Randy Grubb, built Jay Leno's Tank car.See my work at Randy Grubb.com. This is my CAV GT40, I ordered it is 2007 and have just over 6000 mi it is very well sorted and reliable. This is chassis 134 and has all upgrades to this beautiful stainless monocock car.Motor is a 347 stroker ford with 4 weber IDF carbs atop a polished manifold. AFR heads with roller rockers, and stainless bundle of snakes exhaust sound unreal! Motor makes 435 HP and runs on pump gas. A RBT ZF trans with 4.22 ring gear. Willwood 6 pot front and 4 pot rears for stopping, and 2 sets of Halibrand style wheels with real knock-offs, one with track rubber.
Inside leather seats, smith gauges with chrome bezel look correct. This is not only a beautiful show quality car but it is a great track day car as well. It is a regular at Thunder Hill raceway in California. Car has lots of upgrades that not only make it a great track car, they just make a better car. Custom oil cooler and Armondo GT40 oil pan. CAV Canada rear uprights for improved handling, and those extra tires means this car is ready for anything ! Yes the track time show on the paint and lets people know this car is driven! It will be hard it find such a well sorted reliable and capable car! CAV one of the best GT40 MK1 out there, I am 6'!" tall and fit with a helmet ! this is why I have a CAV their droped floor gives the most head room of all the GT40's, by far! The current price of a new CAV that comes less engine and trans is very close to the buy it now price, you can't come close to building this car for what I am asking. Car is in So.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.
