For Sale is an extremely well done, just finished 1930 Model A rat rod style street rod. It is a real steel 1930 Ford body on a fully boxed custom frame. The body has a 5" chopped top and gorgeous copper pearl metallic paint with several coats of flat clear along with black stripping and a tan vinyl top. It was built with heat and ice cold A/C (vintage air system). It has power windows that are key fob operated remote control because the doors have shaved handles on the outside. All window glass on the car is factory bronze tinted which matches the color of the car better. Car also has tilt steering column, a stereo/dvd player with four speakers and all new gauges. Working front and rear turn signals with the front signals built into the headlights. The interior was just finished using tan/beige leather and brown ostrich inserts in dash and seats, along with embroidered hot rod emblems, reclining bucket seats with adjustable lumbar support. One of the coolest features of this build, is the full 5" chop giving it that perfect look, but we dropped the entire floor pan a full 2" to make it more practical for an everyday driver. This was accomplished without a transmission hump so the interior has a full flat floor to give it a lot more room. The rear seats can fit actual size human beings (teens) so it is truly a four passenger vehicle. The front seats have seat belts and the rear seats have 4 point harnesses for the safety of the kids. It also has a full length custom made ceiling console with LED lighting and under dash lighting to match. The entire car was built with safety in mind since I would be taking the kids with me to car shows. It has four-wheel disc brakes. A complete Pete and Jakes four bar front end kit with a steering dampener. The rear was custom fabricated at a racing/chassis shop. It is a triangulated four link set up with heavy duty supports for rock solid stability. It has fully adjustable billet alloy coil over shocks (11 position dampening adjustment so you can select your ride preference) with 300lb springs. They also fabricated a rear sway bar. All this chassis work lets the car handle and keeps it extremely flat and controlled while cornering. The whole point of the build was to be able to actually drive the car to the shows, from the back roads to the interstate. I have been in too many slapped together shoddy fabricated rods that were scary to drive not to mention not being built safe enough to put my kids in the back seat. The engine is a rebuilt 318 Chrysler out of a truck with a mild cam, mated to a 727 tranny with an Edelbrock 4-bbl carb. The engine runs great with no issues. It has plenty of torque and the transmission shifts smooth and crisp using a B&M ratchet shifter. It has a full custom set of twin lake style side pipes. The rear end is a Ford 8" with 2.93 gears so you can cruise the interstate at speed. There are tons of details on the car like the flush mount Harley Davidson fuel cap that pops out connected to an aluminum fuel cell. I'm sure I'm leaving out a lot more, but I can take detailed pics of what ever you want. Like I said, this has just recently been completed and is ultra clean from top to bottom and brand new underneath. The car is a blast to drive and gets tons of attention where ever it goes. Car has 650 miles on it since completion, have tons of receipts, part numbers and parts info The car is offered for sale at $25,000.00 OBO. I can be reached at 919-451-7680

I don't want to leave this out, and I am trying to add a picture, but before the rear sway bar was added, the body was allowed to come in contact with the rear tire and it rubbed the paint. No damage was done, just missing paint. The tires hide the spots completely, but wanted to say it was there. The rubbing occurred when I first had the over-sized rear tires on it. Once the sway bar was added, it completely eliminated body roll and no further rubbing occurred. I have since put on different tires and have had no problems since. |

2015 Ford Mustang prototype spotted on the street
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Our trusty spy photographers have snapped the first photos of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype out on public streets. With nearly every square inch of the machine covered in heavy camouflage, it's difficult to discern details, but we can see smallish horizontal headlamps at work in the coupe's nose. Ford has made it clear that modern lighting technology will allow the company to get away from large, expensive headlamp arrays in the near future, and the 2015 Mustang may very well be the first of the automaker's products to bow with the new tech. The philosophy was first displayed on the very attractive Evos Concept.
The extensive cladding doesn't extend all the way to the prototype's rockers in the instance, giving us a look at the heavily-sculpted sills. Overall, this test car looks considerably smaller than the current generation Mustang, and elements like a short front overhang and beefy dual-piston calipers give us plenty of hope for the future model. Of course, reports that the 2015 Mustang will bow with an independent rear suspension and EcoBoost power certainly don't hurt our feelings, either.

Lincoln dealers to build standalone dealerships separate from Ford
Tue, Aug 14 2018Way back in 2011, Ford Motor Credit Co. established Lincoln Automotive Financial Services as part of what Automotive News called "a campaign to set the Lincoln brand apart." Lincoln's been on a wild, public ride in the seven years since, which included a near-death experience in 2013 under former Ford CEO Alan Mulally. But Ford's luxury brand has rebounded and is ready to take another shot at setting itself apart. Automaker execs have asked dealers with twinned Ford- Lincoln dealerships in 30 major U.S. markets to build standalone stores. According to company data, the move isn't a gamble — dealers with standalone showrooms sell more vehicles. Lincoln's standalone dealerships in the 30 major U.S. markets that account for 70 percent of luxury segment sales increased 48 percent from 2014 to 2017, compared to an overall Lincoln brand sales increase of 18 percent. After a former Ford-Lincoln dealer in Minneapolis opened a devoted Lincoln store this January, sales have climbed 60 percent so far this year. Dealers in Orange County, California, and Atlanta, Georgia have seen sales double since opening exclusive Lincoln storefronts. The sales manager at the Atlanta dealer said, "Customers have pulled up and said, 'This is how it should be.'" Robert Parker, Lincoln's head of marketing, said, "Customers expect the environment to be equal to the product. They want to buy a luxury product in a luxury environment." That issue repeatedly comes up when a mass-market brand launches a luxury product; observers have lately wondered how much the issue affects sales of Hyundai's Genesis brand. Out of 845 Lincoln showrooms nationwide, there are 150 Lincoln dealers in those 30 major U.S. markets. So far, 72 dealers have made or are working to make the standalone switch on their own. Lincoln is asking the remaining 78 shops to follow suit, to agree to a new facility by July 2019 and to have the store finished by July 2021. Only the showrooms would need to be exclusive, service and other back-end departments can remain in Ford-branded complexes. Wielding the carrot, Lincoln will help dealers with relocating, and pay more for every car sold. Wielding the stick, Lincoln said that come Q2 2019, it won't let twinned dealers sell Black Label trims if they don't already. Over the next couple of years, Lincoln will complete the revamp of its lineup. Said marketing honco Parker, "The next phase of the transformation is critical.
