1931 Ford Convertable Pick Up (hot Rod - Street Rod) on 2040-cars
Lebanon, Maine, United States
VERY NICE 31 FORD PICK UP THAT WAS YEARS AGO CONVERTED TO A CONVERTABLE. THE BUILDER WANTED A ROADSTER PICK UP BUT AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW A REAL 31 ROADSTER PICK UP HAS NO WINDOWS AND HE WANTED WINDOWS SO HE COULD GET MORE DRIVING TIME IN IT. THEREFORE HE MADE HIS OWN CONVERTABLE, A GREAT JOB TOO. THE TOP UNSNAPS AND JUST FOLDS DOWN, OR YOU CAN JUST UNZIP THE BACK WINDOW AND PUSH OUT THE WINDSHIELD AND GET LOTS OF AIR THAT WAY, YOUR CHOICE. THE DRIVE TRAIN IS A CHEVY 350 ENGINE WITH A SMALL CAM THAT RUNS VERY WELL AND THE TRANS IS THE OLD RELIABLE 350 TURBO. DROPPED AXLE FRONT END WITH A CHEVY REAR END. HAS ALMOST NEW VINTIQUE WHEELS AND THE TIRES ARE ALSO LIKE NEW. THE BODY AND RUNNING BOARDS ARE STEEL AND THE FENDERS ARE FIBERGLASS. THE REAR BODY IS HOME MADE BUT LOOKS LIKE A FACTORY JOB, EVEN HAS THE RIVETS HOLDING IT TOGETHER LIKE A FACTORY BODY. HAS A NICE WOOD FLOOR AND A NICE WOODEN BOX IN THE BACK WHICH HAS THE BATTERY AND A SMALL STORAGE PLACE. THERE IS A CUSTOM TORNO COVER THAT MATCHES THE TOP WHICH SNAPS TO THE BED AND COVERS IT COMPLETELY TO KEEP THINGS DRY OR HIDDEN THAT GOES WITH THE TRUCK.

These horribly misguided front-drive design studies nearly became the Mustang
Fri, 08 Nov 2013As we eagerly await the unveiling of the all-new sixth-generation Mustang, Ford has been giving us some great information over the past few months showing what has gone into shaping its venerable pony car. As many changes as the Mustang has gone through in its 50 years, though, it appears the fourth-gen model played a decisive and pivotal role in the car's future.
As is part of Mustang lore, the front-wheel drive Ford Probe was originally developed as a next-generation Mustang in the Eighties before cooler heads prevailed. The Blue Oval has just released a handful of images showing how bad things could have been - including a full-scale clay model of a front-wheel-drive Mustang (shown above). Fortunately, the FWD Mustang plan was scrapped and Ford went to work designing a rear-wheel-drive replacement for the Fox Body Mustang, with three design studies making it far enough to become full-scale models. These include the soft "Bruce Jenner" Mustang, the over-the-top "Rambo" Mustang and the middle-ground "Arnold Schwarzenegger" Mustang, which finally became the basis for the 1994 'Stang.
By early 1991, the design language of the fourth-generation Mustang had been worked out, and the rest, they say, is history. Scroll down for the fascinating press release telling the story of the fourth-gen Mustang, and be sure to check out the gallery of horribly misguided sketches and various design studies that were all on the table in the late 1980s.
RTR Spec 5 Concept shows off 2015 Ford Mustang's drifty potential
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Meet the Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 Concept, a fully functional drift car that, according to our team in Sin City, has been doling out demo drifts in front of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Destined to be the flagship of RTR's Tactical Performance Line, the Spec 5 Concept is, in addition to its 5.0-liter Aluminator V8 engine, chock full of performance parts that you can buy for your very own 2015 Mustang. In addition to the Ford Racing engine, the OEM parts supplier has lent the Spec 5 an aluminum radiator and a close-ratio six-speed transmission.
ASD Motorsports provided the front lower control arms, while the car itself rides on a fully customized coilover suspension. Magnaflow and American Racing have provided the exhaust system and headers, respectively. 20-inch HRE wheels, designed for RTR, are wrapped in sticky Nitto rubber.
Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24
Tue, 01 Oct 2013It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9.
