How about a nice, dependable street rod roadster pickup that gets back to basics?!? This is an original all metal truck, (with the exception of the drivers rear fender and removable upper hood section), that is about as basic as it gets! Basic Hot Rod Black, (semi gloss enamel) paint, that you don't have to worry about chips, scuffs, bugs or dust. Just a quick wipe down, or touch up with a Sharpie when you do spot a chip! No windows, no radio, heater or any power robbing accessories! (About the only accessory on the interior of this truck is the drivers side only wiper arm, which still requires you to operate it manually, and uses no power!) This truck comes equipped with a fresh 305 V-8 Chevy engine equipped with a tri-power set up, some additional chrome goodies, an automatic transmission and a Ford 8" rear end held in place with trailing arms, adjustable Aldan coil over shocks and a panhard rod. Block hugger headers on the engine, with full exhaust back to a pair of Smitty style mufflers to tail pipes that exit out the back just below the tail gate. The frame was supplied by Speedway motors, so no problems with a rusty, repaired, who knows how many times, frame. The front end has a dropped Speedway motors front axle with hairpin radius arms, with front disc brakes, rear drums, along with a Vega manual steering gear and a tilt column. Topping the column is a Speedway motors steering wheel that connects to the iconic 'Aoogah' horn. The Spartan interior includes a compliment of gauges in the center dash, as well as a Lokar floor shifter. The interior is done in a red and white tuck and roll style as well as red carpeting and a custom floor mat made of the same material. The seat back is removable with the back of the cab being padded and upholstered so that a tall person with longer legs can comfortably sit in the cab. These older Model A's seem to have been made for somewhat shorter people in the day! But I can still get my 6'2 265 lb. body in and out of the cab and still be somewhat comfortable! But I do look forward to getting out of the cab to fill up the 7 gallon aluminum fuel tank located in the bed atop the chrome diamond plate panel which replaces the original wood bed and looks quite nice. Big and little steel, two-tone painted wheels with trim rings and baby moon center caps, and BFGoodrich tires all around. 195-60-15 tires on the front and 275-60-15 tires on the rear. I do carry a nice compact spare, with jack and handle with me when going on a run out of town! (And an extra gallon of gas in the bed just in case!) Truck has a fully removable and folding convertible top that is in excellent condition. If you're looking for a nice Model A pickup street rod to just be able to take out and have fun with, and not worry about bugs, dirt or rain this just might be the truck you have been looking for!

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.

Watch Ken Block play traffic cop in ’Top Gear’ teaser

Tue, Dec 26 2017

BBC is teasing a new series of 'Top Gear' starring the rally racer and Hoonigans honcho Ken Block and promising that series 25 is "coming soon." Block plays a police officer (with a Los Angeles Police Department badge, no less) in an off-road 4x4 vehicle in the 30-second clip, jumping off obstacles and tearing through dirt in an industrial area near snow-capped mountains. He gives chase to show hosts Matt LeBlanc, in a yellow Ford Mustang, Rory Reid and Chris Harris, who steers a McLaren 570S. It looks like they're having more fun that the rest of us. LeBlanc has said the next season of episodes will aim to attract a younger, more diverse audience with more comedy. Series 25 is expected to launch in spring, perhaps after the wrap-up of the second season of 'The Grand Tour.'Related Video: Celebrities TV/Movies Ford McLaren Off-Road Vehicles Performance Top Gear Ken Block

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
