So this is my 1930 Model A project. Its pretty far along in the mock up stage and doesnt need alot before its ready for finishing. I bought the car in virginia as a running barn find and chopped it up. The top is chopped 4.5" and needs finish welded. the passenger door has had a new bottom installed. Both cowl bottoms, wheel tubs and body rails have been replaced. the cowl tank has been cut out and the roof was filled before i got the car. The car needs the floors and the firewall completed. A steering column needs to be added and its ready to brake down and finish. the frame has been boxed and kicked up in the rear. The front end is all new superbell drilled and 4"dropped. There are new king pins, spindles, rotors, caliper brackets, steering arms, spring, shackles, drag link, vega box, pitman arm and hair pins. The rear is a 9" from a versalis and is 28 spline open with 331 gears. i have some of the rear disc brake parts but not all of them. The rear suspension is a pete and jakes ladder bar with panhard bar and coil overs. The motor is a 283 that ran a few years back but needs rebuild, the tunnel ram and sanderson headers are included. The trans is a good low mile 350 turbo. there are new guide 182 replica headlights and the car comes with the hood and sides. I have a seat from a dodge mini van that comes with it. The wheels and tires are new boyds and are halibrand replicas, they are dirty but have not seen the road. What you see is what you get so ask questions up front. The car obviously needs work but i feel the hardest part is done.
I will look at possible trades but be realistic, i dont want your low value junk!
The car needs to be picked up and all arrangements made by new owner. obviously its a project so once you buy it you own it there are no guarantees. I need $500.00 down within 24 hours and the rest paid in cash within a week.

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of
Tue, 17 Dec 2013One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
2015 Ford F-150 pricing announced, aluminum-bodied truck up just $395
Mon, 28 Jul 2014The eagerly anticipated Ford F-150 has had its 2015 pricing announced, adding only a small amount to the pickup's total cost, despite its weight-saving aluminum body. The XL and XLT entry level models only see a $395 boost over the heavier, current-generation, 2014 truck.
The XL starts at $26,615 while the XLT rings up at $31,890. The increase for Lariat is up a similarly negligible $895, to $39,880. Going up the ladder, meanwhile, the leather-intensive King Ranch sees the biggest jump of the F-150 family, with prices increasing $3,515, to $49,460. Finally, picking up the top-end Platinum trim will cost an extra $3,055, with prices starting at $52,155.
The higher prices are being blamed not only on the aluminum bodies, which trim up to 700 pounds of body fat, but on increased levels of standard equipment. While we were expecting a price hike, the fact that the 2015 F-150's volume trims - Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Reuters that the XL and XLT alone cover 70 percent of F-150 sales - have had less than a $400 increase is hugely impressive.
