South Pasadena, California, United States



Purpose-built, light-weight, agile, and fast, the Ford A V8 roadster ruled the streets of Southern California before and after World War II.
The A V8 was the precursor to the Deuce and all later iterations of Ford hot rod roadsters.  Emulating the California lakes and street racers of the late 30s
and early 40s, this little roadster is exceptional in its period-correct detail.  As a testament to its authenticity, it was recently honored with the Joe Mac award
at the Antique Nationals.  Everything is newly rebuilt, with many rare and NOS parts.  And, it's a blast to drive.

The specifics:

0.060" over, ported, polished, and relieved 1946 59a flathead with Mercury crank;  266 cu. in.
Rare and potent Iskenderian 1007 LD (long duration) Track Grind camshaft, the "Impacter".
Original and very rare Edelbrock Block Letter heads and intake manifold.
Kurten dual-coil, dual-point ignition with original Ford coils converted to 12v.
Original and complete Stewart-Warner mechanical tach drive.
Twin 97s.

Very rare Halibrand Culver City Model A Quick change; final gear, 3.46.

Original Deuce 4" dropped axle, spindles, wishbone, and spring.

1939 Ford trans.

Ford F-1 steering box with original Deuce pitman arm.

Rare, curved-glass Stewart-Warner mechanical tach,  2 & 5/8" oil pressure and water temp gauges.

Original Deuce radiator (rebuilt by The Brassworks), grill shell, and insert.

Hydraulic brakes with '40 backing plates.

 NOS B-L-C 682-J headlamps with 12v Halogen conversion.

Many more details.  Please check them out.

Ford cuts 950 Russian jobs on weak demand

Thu, 03 Apr 2014

The Russian auto market, in decline for the past year and further hit by the declining value of the ruble and recent sanctions over its annexation of Crimea, has forced Ford to cut jobs and shifts at two of its joint venture plants there. Around 700 of the 2,700 total workers who build the Russian-market Focus and Mondeo will be cut at the plant in Vsevolozhsk, near St. Petersburg as it drops to a single production shift. A second plant about 700 miles away in Yelabuga, in the Tartarstan region, will lose 250 workers. That plant builds seven vehicles, including the Explorer, Kuga and Edge.
The Moscow Times says Ford has been especially hit by the market decline, the overall market losing 5.5 percent in 2013 compared to the year before, but Ford sales dropping 18 percent in 2013 year-on-year. This year isn't going any better, with The Blue Oval posting a 21-percent decline through the first two months of 2014. That's why, though the Yelabuga plant builds the CUVs that customers are moving into, even it is facing cuts.
The job cuts in Vsevolozhsk come on top four-week plant shutdown planned so that the paint and body shops can go to one shift. In a statement, the company said, "Ford Sollers remains absolutely committed to the Russian market and is confident it has the right product plan, people and assets to deliver long-term profitable growth."

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
