"El Lay Mae" "Moldy Marvin's" T&A This old girl has some history and a story to tell.. Currently Registered in the State of California (on a non op) | |
| Back in 2001 I found El Lay Mae at the L.A. Roadster Show, She was sitting all by herself in a corner at the swap meet.
I got her from dry lakes king Joe Moreno
|
Here is a snap of her once I got her home.r once I got her home. |  |
This is what she looked like after I had taken off all of the stickers and cleaned her up real good. |
| That there is the infamous John Parker cuttin' it up with the camera... The guy in the hat is the well known auto artist Kent Bash who included El Lay Mae and I in one of his paintings.
This painting has been published in several magazine articles about Kent. |
John, Richard, & George usin' the El Lay Mae's trunk fer a dinner table. Bob's Big Boy 2001 So What the heck is she anyway ? Well she's got 1928 Rails, Truck Bed and 4 banger Mill... The Fiberglas 23 T bucket was put on her sometime in the early 60's cuz it's all hand laid ... the side pipes are active and serve two purposes (1) to make a bunch of noise and (2) to serve as nerf bars and extra support for that old t bucket...... The Brakes are Mechanical and she tops out between 45 and 50 MPH... | |
| In 2002 she won her first award at the Jewel City Kiwanis Car Show
The Award is for First Place Special Interest. All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae |
| 2002 was also the first year that I started Racing El Lay Mae in the Antique Nationals . |
Me and a Buddy of Mine Flintstone had a running bet of $ 1.00 every year when we raced side by side. His car was very much like El Lay Mae and he called his car Ebay Elly |

All Awards go with the Sale of El Lay Mae | 2004 EL Lay Mae and I in the winners circle Antique Nationals.
She was the slowest Car on the track at 25.5 seconds. In our last eliminations we went up against a beautiful 14 second board track racer worth about $ 40,000.0, El Lay Mae was so consistent that day and we took Jim Macnair Award 1st Place in the 4 Banger Class!
I Love Bracket Racing! |
El Lay Mae Loves to go to El Mirage |
El Lay Mae, myself and Joaquin Arnett of the Bean Bandits |
In the summer of 2004 we shot this Desert Drag Race Segment. You can watch the segment about 5 minutes into the movie. EL Lay Mae and Flintston's Ebay Elly.
El Lay Mae played the part of "Old Timer" (Voice by Alex Xydias) which was the first car in the movie to be interviewed. | The Movie Tales of the Ratfink took 6 years to produce, I worked on the film as a consultant to Ron Mann.

El Lay Mae Today | |
 |  |
| Back in 2007 I swapped out El Lay Mae's mill with a 1930 4 banger because her original mill main seal went along with the babbit. | |
 |  |
 |  |
| The 1930 Mill still runs but it too now needs Babbit too so I haven't driven her for awhile now. | |
|  EL Lay Mae's Original Mill Comes with the Sale |
 I recently acquired this 1929 Mill with a B performance police head. This Mill comes with the Sale also. | 
I started Cleaning it up because it is in pretty good condition. |
 The Babbit is in great shape. | The concept was to take apart this most recent Mill tear it down and rebuild El Lay Mae's original Mill with the parts. |

 |  |
| Even though El Lay Mae might need a little TLC today, she has been very good to me for many years now. She is a keeper for sure and as much as I would like to hang on to her I really need to sell her cuz I need the $$$! I'm really hoping that her new owner will feel the same way and treat her good for many more years of enjoyment!

Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.
Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
