New sprint roadster chrome headers just wrapped with header tape. New removable Supertrapp mufflers with discs so you can tune it to the sound and performance you want. The car sounds awesome, with a good cam lope. It drives real nice and turns smooth. Bumby roads are a little rough, but understandable. This isn't a rat rod or a street rod, it's a Hot Rod. it's just a really good looking hot rod that you can get in and go cruising. The body was in excellent shape when I started. It had been bead blasted and pretty straight. The doors were a real pain trying to get them to line up right. The passenger door is a little off, but it was the best I could with what I had to work with. The interior has removable panels to allow access to the rear end components, battery, shocks, etc. The paint is House of Kolor, Kandy Brandywine Basecoat over Black. The paint finish is really good. The car recently won best of show out of over 200 cars, so I was very pleased with that. It's a head turner for sure. It draws alot of attention. I have a clean Missouri title for it. The car is a 1931 Tudor Sedan, and I found an original Missouri title for a 1930 Ford Coupe, and thats what i used to get it registered. So, now the car is registered as a 1930 Ford Coupe, and it's all numbers matching. The numbers on the Frame, Body, and Title all match so no problems getting tags and insurance. I just finished building the car a couple of weeks ago. The engine only has about 20 miles on it. I'm only selling it so I can build another one, I just enjoy building them. The side, rear, and drivers windows are all jet black plexiglass, so you can't see through them. The door window roll up and down and since there is no air conditioning the windows are gonna be down anyways in the summer so thats why i went with the black plexiglass. It just looks better. The doors need to have a slide lock of some kind, just in case the doors come open while driving, and you can put a headliner in it if you want to. I just chose not to. It has a couple of original 31' gauges but there is no gas gauge or speedometer. Other than that I can't think of anything else it needs. most everything on it is new. Please click on the link and watch the video, and look at all the pictures. What you see is what you get.

Ford dinged by OSHA for asbestos at Buffalo plant
Sat, 20 Jul 2013Ford has come under fire from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for violations regarding asbestos exposure in a company metal stamping plant in Buffalo, NY. OSHA has cited Ford for eight violations in total, according to an Automotive News report, and faces fines of up to $41,800. 537 workers are employed at the stamping facility.
The violations include a pipefitter at the facility being exposed to asbestos-containing material while working on a steam line, other workers exposed to the material without respiratory protection and work areas that were not designed to limited the number of workers in contact with asbestos. Further, areas in which asbestos was present were not properly restricted, and levels of asbestos in the air were not monitored.
According to an unnamed Ford spokesperson in the AN report, the company feels that the OSHA citation is erroneous saying, "We have fully cooperated with the local OSHA officials and we don't believe the citations are warranted." Ford also maintains that it will work with the authorities to resolve the issue.
Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
