Up for auction is my 1923 Ford T-Bucket. It is older build and is showing it's age. The fiberglass shell has a few areas of damage that will need some attention whenever you get around to it. They are not really visible, but if you look at the back where the trunk is you may be able to see them. The windshield post appears to be original to a 23 T and the glass is break free. Side steps for ease of getting in and a Cassette player with 4 speakers that are of no use when the vehicle is started. Break lights, headlights, blinkers and tail lights work as they should. There is also a working wiper arm as shown, but of no use. Solid frame and there is disc brakes on the front and drum brakes with a 9" Ford rear-end in the rear. The motor is either a 327 or 350 Chevy with Camel Back heads, an over size cam ( specs unknown ) and a Edelbrock 6-pack manifold with adjustable electronic fuel pump. There is no choke so it is very cold blooded when started until slightly warmed up. The carbs could use adjustment, I could not find any-one local to tune them, so they will need some adjustment or rebuilds. There is an electronic ignition installed with a 50,000 volt coil. The engine is loud due to no baffles in the exhaust and has a very severe cam loop to it, Electronic fan installed, but I had never used it yet and have done a few parades. The transmission I am unsure of, but I would probably guess a turbo-350. The front seal has a very small leak to it when sitting for a few days. The car is a good driver with new plugs, electronic ignition, oil change and new plug wires. I am sure I forgot something, but email me and I can answer any questions. I do work until 7:00 PM and answer emails after that. The car runs down the road good, is very loud and still draws plenty of looks. Maybe due to the vehicle, or the un-baffled exhaust. Personally I am a Ford guy and if it does not sell I will pull the Chevy motor and trans out sell it and install a Ford motor in it. Just my preference. THE VEHICLE IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WITH NO WARRENTY APPLIED.

Buyer is responsible for picking up the car or arranging for shipping.

I will accept PayPal, Cashiers check along with cash as payment methods. All payment method beside cash will need to clear the bank before the car is released.

Please email with any questions. I will need a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 3 days of auction ending and payment if full within 10 days of auction ending. I can store the car for a couple of weeks while transport is arranged.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.

Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.
