Noblesville, Indiana, United States
This A was a Coupe at birth. Some where along the line some one cut the trunk off and made it a wooden bed pick-up. I found it at a private collection/museum setting at true 1930's gas station (building ,pumps, oil the whole 9 yards). It now has the Frame boxed and extended and Metal bed on it. The front axle is a 30's Ford V/8 , New disc brakes, Spindles, Calipers, etc. New Shocks all around, New springs. New Master brake cylinder. New vega steering gear. New Locar shifter. New gauges. New Dual exhaust, new headers, New Glass packs New tail pipes New Breather. The 9" rear end has been shortened and fits right (Don't know what the gear ratio is). New mirrors, New Cowl lights, New side mount antenna, New Radiator, New radiator rock guard, New 1 wire alternator New tranny cooler. Have (used) the full 4 piece hood and an extra set of fenders front and rear. Tilt Steering. My neighbor is 6' 4" and is comfortable behind the wheel. The tires and rims all match (But) there is some rust forming in the chrome and the tires are dry rotting. There is New rear glass and gasket, new both side glasses and gaskets. Very nice used original window trim garnish for these also. For any Questions, or concerns, or showings Email or Call 317-508-1605. The buyer is responsible for any shipping arrangements and fees. Zip 46060 We will help all as necessary. I can store for an agreed upon amount of time as long as the vehicle is paid in full and all funds has cleared the bank. 18 wheelers can load here too. Any over seas buyers Must do all of the shipping arrangements (I have worked with over seas shippers before and generally it takes time). The Title is clear and in my name. My Priorities have changed since having this truck built last year (Both age and health wise). Time to sell my toys. P.S. my mechanic stopped in today and said the thermostat housing needs resealed To stop the water leak and the cooling fan blade is not big enough, ( Should put a push or pull electric fan on), this radiator is rated to cool a 550 H.P. engine.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen
Tue, Jan 19 2016Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:
Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Ford owns Automotive Loyalty Awards, Audi and Subaru are king of conquests
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Customers are a commodity in the automotive industry, and like any other commodity, automakers trade them back and forth. Only nobody wants to give up their customers - just to keep the ones they have and try to attract others.
That's what the Polk Automotive Loyalty Awards are all about. Every year the industry research body names the automakers, brands and models that manage to keep their customers coming back for more - and attract buyers to switch from other makes. Ford usually does pretty well, but this year it rose above even its own track record.
Not only did Dearborn win the Overall Loyalty to Manufacturer award, but also the Overall Loyalty to Make. Ford also took the African American category, and the F-150 was named the top full-size half-ton pickup in customer loyalty. Ford COO Mark Fields (pictured above) accepted the awards and gave the keynote address at the awards ceremony.
