This speedster is a genuine 1925 Ames-bodied Ford.
The F.A. Ames Company of Owensboro, Kentucky produced this very popular Model 815 Racer Body from 1915-1925 as a replacement body for the Model T Ford of the day that was "a favorite with red-blooded men- the young men who set the pace in every community- the young men who like snap, style and speed." It was ordered with the optional Double Panel Windshield and Water-tight Trunk. True to the spirit of its purpose, this speedster is not just another delicate, cute little Ford speedster. There are plenty of those for sale out there if you want a namby-pamby parade car so you can putt around the block and wave at the neighbors. But as you consider the following list of equipment, it will be very apparent to the discerning speedster fan that this thing is as they would have said in the early days of motoring, "a real Scorcher!" If driving this car doesn't put a smile on your face, I suggest that you should probably check to see if you have a pulse! Check out these features: 1) Real 1925 Ames-Bodied Speedster 2) Ruckstel Rear Axle (Smooth as Silk) 3) Wire Wheels and Stylish Mounted Spare 4) Steering Box for positive control 5) Heavy Duty Radius Rods 6) Fronty 2-Spark, 2- Carburetor Model S-R Racing Head (For Racing Cars Only) 7) Dual Winfield Model SR Carburetors 8) Bosch Dual Spark ZU4 Magneto W/Impulse 9) Townsend Alumimum Oil Pan W/Aluminum Engine Side Covers 10) Jahns Alumimum Racing Pistons 11) Side Drive Aluminum Water Pump 12) Racing Header & Exhaust 13) Pressurized Fuel System 14) Electric Starter 15) 12 Volt Electrical System W/Alternator 16) 5 Tube Radiator 17) High Volume External Oil Supply Line 18) Connecting Rod Oil Dippers When the Chevrolet brothers introduced the Fronty Model R Cylinder Head in 1921, it absolutely astonished the racing world by its performance and dependability, winning practically every race it entered, including races at Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne, South Bend, Chicago, Graham, Texas and Ventura, Calif. Qualifying in the 1923 Indy 500 at 86.92 MPH and defeating all the foreign entries such as Mercedes, Bugatti, etc. and many of the American entries, it demonstrated what a Ford car can really do when equipped with the Fronty head. The racing community of the day took notice. The Model S-R 2-spark plug 2-carburetor head configuration like this speedster sports was brought out to "meet a demand of the fastest drivers for something faster than the regular Model R." With its dual Winfield Carbs and dual spark Mag, what a combination! So here it is, the one you've been searching for all these years. How long would it take to locate correct period parts and assemble such a car? This is not a bunch of reproduction stuff made to look pretty. What we have here is the genuine article!

Ford recalls 422,000 SUVs for rear view camera display that may fail
Thu, May 18 2023WASHINGTON — Ford is recalling 422,000 sport utility vehicles in the U.S. because the video output may fail, preventing the rear view camera image from displaying. The recall covers 2020 through 2023 Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, and 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair SUVs with a 360-degree camera. The recall expands and replaces prior Ford callbacks for the same issue in 2021 and 2023. Ford last year updated the image processing module (IPMB) software in an effort to address the issue. Ford said on Thursday it is "working together with suppliers to identify root cause and provide the correct remedy as quickly as possible". The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said the loss of the rear view camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on June 26. Last year, Ford said it had reports of 17 minor crashes relating to the recall issue and more than 2,100 warranty reports but no reports of injuries. The NHTSA in August 2021 opened an investigation after Ford in 2020 recalled 620,246 vehicles for another rear camera issue. The investigation is reviewing if Ford had recalled the vehicles in a timely fashion and if it recalled enough vehicles. Recalls Ford Lincoln Crossover SUV
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
