The most radical, jaw dropping 1930 Model A Tudor sedan rat rod for sale by owner! This one of a kind machine is a Florida registered, street legal, full custom bad ass ride. Whether driving or layed out, this 4 wheeled beast constantly demands the attention of onlookers and always creates an audience. This car makes people waste their cell phone storage with car selfies and videos, and may cause accidents from rubber-neckers stunned at the sight of this phenomenon. If you’re lucky enough to be the highest bidder on this Wicked ride, your lady will get jealous that the car will get more attention than her! This was built originally at a very prestigious shop in California. That rat rod look with the dependability and fine engineering of a hot rod.

This car features full airride, allowing you to lay it out for show or lift for easy driving. This car also features a big block 500ci Cadillac engine, and is better than your standard 350 seen in most typical rat rods. The motor compliments the build of the body and is perfectly proportioned. New steel wheels with brand new repop vintage radio white wall tires make for a smooth ride, and disk brakes up front with drum brakes in the rear make it stop on point. Easy steering, seat belts, open headers, aluminum radiator, and of course functioning gauges, break lights, and turn signals makes this car a complete package. Car has a nicely concealed roll bar, battery compartment, and a battery shut off. This phenomenal car runs great, drives great, and shows very well! There's also an almost endless list of eclectic bolted on and welded goodies to stare at like the unique skeleton hookah shifter, custom made banjo steering wheel, vintage house door handle plates, drive shaft cage, light-up skull license plate topper, and radiator fluid bottles. This unique car is a cut above the rest, inside and out, with silver leaf lettering and vintage license plate floors. For those of you who enjoy music while showing off your ride, this car features a radio with built in blue tooth and hidden speakers. If you want heads to turn, this ride is the answer to your Wicked Wayz.

Amelia Island 2013: 50 years of the Ferrari-slaying Ford GT40

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Originally developed with the sole purpose of being a Ferrari rival to compete at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Ford GT40 became a prominent racing machine in the 1960s in both Europe and the US. Not wanting to leave such an important car out of the fun, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance also took time out from its other celebrations to recognize the 50-year anniversary of the GT40.
Over its short lifespan, the GT40 was offered in a handful of configurations, but the classic short-tailed (Mk I and Mk II) bodystyles were well represented... especially in Gulf livery. James Glickenhaus (of Ferrari P4/5 fame) had his bright yellow Mk IV in the field, and there were several others in this bodystyle, including one that has seen plenty of time on the track judging by its chipped-up nose.
As a fitting statement for the car's lengthy racing history, GT40 Chassis Number 1075 won this year's Concours de Sport award. This car took home the checkered flag at Le Mans in 1968 and 1969, and racked up a total of six wins in just 11 races.

American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings

Fri, 10 May 2013

Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
