Palmyra, New York, United States

1913 Depot Hack that was just finished at the end of last summer and attended one car show where it won trophy. Only driven around the block a few times and is ready to go anywhere. I built this car with the intention that I did not want to have break downs, constant "monkeying around" nor the usual constant tinkering that most "T's" need.  I had this one done for national tours. this car has the best of everything with over 20,000$ invested plus labor, plus paint shop labor, time spent searching for pieces and shipping... Motor & Trans is 1926. Was completely rebuilt by "Ron's Machine shop  ( Known for Montana 500 wins ) cost was over $ 5000. Carb by Russ Potter ( NH). Has Alum intake, new exhaust manifold, 260Z Cam, Kevlar linings, Jack rabbit Clutch, Kevlar Linings, low head, modified early fan with roller bearings inserted, Hogs headed rebuilt with "O" rings so no leaks ! & pedals are lettered  ( C,R,B) not 26/27 wide type. Because of the larger brake drum in trans.  car is safer as it stops quickly for a T. 4 dip pan straightened on KR Jig. Has dual internal oil feeds to front bearings. Mag and magnets are reworked by "ron's"  Coils are rebuilt and in box with KW Switch, Internal contacts and porcelains are original Ford not repros for best contact.. Has an "E TIMER" so no screwing around with spark and runs really smooooth with lots of power, yet looks original. Comes with a'17 block that can be modified to '13, early narrow nosed oil correct pan  as a spare &possibly   NOS crankshaft. Correct front and rear ends all rebuilt with new bushings and new Mae West shackles roller bearings in rear end not brass plates, hasTapered leaf springs. Front is new & repro rear is mint used original. drive shaft has FUN PROJECTS adjustable  bearing and NOS U joint..  Has fabric lined accessory brake shoes not cast iron and will stop. All chassis sand blasted and primed and is urethane black with hardner to make oil and gas resistant. All oilers are correct brass. Battery is 6 volt 1 yr old. All fenders, hood former, gas tank, running boards, hood are new Rootlieb. Headlamps are new Rootlieb ( I did not paint them to change from '12 to '13 style). Prestolite tank painted factory grey and is full. Have Langs kit to hook up lights to it, but not installed...yet. Steering colum is all rebuilt with new brass parts and 26-27 gears for easy &  safe steering. Body is by Pleasantville Body Co. Wheels are rebuilt by the Amish in Ohio and beautiful, all wood and hardware is new .( all 4) with sandblasted and filled rims and hubs that were nice to start with. Wheel bearings possibly NOS. Tires of course are new. Radiator is new from "BERGS". Side lamps are nice originals with burners but have dings in the fonts that are minor lamps are restored other wise ...same for the tail lamp all are corect '13-'14, Speedo is winged script. Horn is original with new LANGS tube ,reed, fittings. As I had intended to keep this as my own car I did it right, But we have the American Eagle "T" racer and wife prefers to show that and we are looking for a '33 Ford body if any one has one available to put a hi perf '51 Merc Flatie we have into. Car is dusty and a bit dirty in some shots as pictures were taken just after winter storage in a dusty barn. This '13 draws a lot of attention where ever it goes and kids just love it !! The touring shown in one pic is sold and gone. Many small parts are either NOS Ford or repros from Langs & Bob's.

2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.

Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.

GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings

Thu, 31 Jul 2014

The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
