Bakersfield, California, United States
Up for auction is my 1928 Ford roadster pickup. The car runs & drives great. I've driven it to car shows as far as 200 miles away. The car has a Blackboard Hotrods complete custom chassis. The cab is a mix of original & new sheet metal. The bed was made by Last Refuge Hotrods. The rear end is a 1969 T-bird 9" w/ Auburn Posi unit built by Currie Enterprises. the rear is hung with a triangulated four bar set up & polished aluminum Aldan Eagle coilover shocks. The front end is made up of MT Brakes 39 Lincoln backing plates, Buick polished 45 fin drums with Wilson welding adapters, a So-Cal forged drilled I-beam axle. Posi super slide spring, chrome Pete & Jakes shocks & Hairpin radius rods. The engine is a fresh Chevy 396 built by Paul Williams Motorsports. Built w/ Forged parts to add Nitrous Oxide if you choose. It has a chrome mini starter, custom Lakes style headers w/ baffles, Edelbrock endurashine Air gap manifold, Demon 650cfm carb, MSD Distributor & Coil, finned aluminum Valve covers & air cleaner. The transmission is a Corvette 700R4 rebuilt by Gil's transmission of Bakersfield. it is setup with a Bowtie Overdrives TV Cable setup. The radiator is custom built by Brass Works, The fuel is held by a original Model T with three gallons of storage added to the underside. The Gauges are SW Wings series & a Sun vintage style Tach. Steering is done with a Vega box & the front end has a panhard bar. The paint is Dupont Hot Hues YM166, which looks fairly dark until the sun hits it. The paint has a lot of gold micro flake & really pops in the light. The interior is butterscotch colored ultra-leather & was stitched by Bill Purkiser of Dave's Fabrication in Bakersfield. The Rocket wheels are wrapped with Hurst Radial Cheater slicks in back & firestone radials in the front. It took 3 years of nights & weekends to build this car. It is a total custom one off build. The car is highly detailed & well engineered. It always turns heads, wins shows & gets attention from the magazines. It is very fast & dependable. This is not a roomy car. I am 6' & 240lbs & drive it on fairly long trips but, the car is channeled & leg room is tight. If you are over 6' & like to drive long trips this probably isn't the Hotrod for you. The car is also for sale locally. Buyer is responsible for shipping or Pick up. I will haul to an over sea's shipper (long beach area only) for a $$$ fee. Good Luck & happy bidding!

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.
Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit
Thu, 24 Jul 2014While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.
