FOR SALE BY OWNER - Listed by National Marketing Classifieds (NMSell)
Engine: 302, 40,000 miles, Exterior: Red, Interior: Red. VIN: 1FABP46W0EH119852 . THe history of the car is important to its value. The car was built by the Jack Rousch Company in 1994. It was ordered by Legendary public relations motors port director for PPG by the name of Jim Chapman. The cost was $85,000 and was the only PPG pace car for the championship auto racing teams series (cart) that was street legal. All the pace cars of that time were not street legal and at the end of their life, were to be destroyed as presented in the contract. The car was used to give pace car rides to guest of PPG and to pace races midway through 1994 season and into 1995 season. The car is unique cause it is greatly modified compared to the 1994 Ford Thunderbird Turbo of the time. It has a hand built 302 high roller engine (high performance) and at the time was run as high as 165 mph. It has a 5 speed gear box ans a koni air suspension along with Craiger rims and oversized tires. The outside body is in very good condition with no rust and one tiny dent put in it at the 1995 Michigan race by Johnny Rutherford when he hit an orange cone. The interior is also red and in very good condition, although a little faded. The car has 40,000 miles on it. At the end of its use as a pace car, it was given to Kenny Lowe who managed the pace car team under Jim Chapman (who was Babe Ruth's manager and PR guy until he died). Kenny was as they say "volume challenged" and did not fit well in the car so he sold it to a member of the cart safety team. The safety team member sold it to me after he left it in his garage for 13 years. He used it on occasion but needed the space in his garage. I bought it from him and as only the third owner, have only driven it on occasion but it pretty much has sat unused in my garage. The engine was recently tuned up and is running great. The historical value is that the car was a special order by Jim Chapman and was designed to be street legal, yet worked as a very fast pace car for the cart series. I doubt it is the only pace car left from that time period, it represents the golden age of open wheel racing as a street legal pace car for the very popular cart series. My interest in selling it is to a collector who cal appreciate the history and uniqueness of the car. It is simply too much of a car for me and the primary use I got for it was for car shows and special vintage car rally's. Sadly, I am no longer able to participate in these events.

VW, Rivian, Nissan, BMW, Genesis, Audi and Volvo lose EV tax credits starting tomorrow
Mon, Apr 17 2023The U.S. Treasury said Monday that Volkswagen, BMW, Nissan, Rivian, Hyundai and Volvo electric vehicles will lose access to a $7,500 tax credit under new battery sourcing rules. The Treasury said the new requirements effective Tuesday will also cut by half credits for the Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Rear Wheel Drive to $3,750 but other Tesla models will retain the full $7,500 credit. Vehicles losing credits Tuesday are the BMW 330e, BMW X5 xDrive45e, Genesis Electrified GV70, Nissan Leaf , Rivian R1S and R1T, Volkswagen ID.4 as well as the plug-in hybrid electric Audi Q5 TFSI e Quattro and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) electric Volvo S60. The Swedish carmaker is 82%-owned by China’s Zhejiang Geely Holding Group. The rules are aimed at weaning the United States off dependence on China for EV battery supply chains and are part of President Joe Biden's effort to make 50% of U.S. new vehicle sales by 2030 EVs or PHEVs. Hyundai said in a statement it was committed to its long-range EV plans and that it "will utilize key provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act to accelerate the transition to electrification." Rivian declined to comment and the other automakers could not immediately be reached for comment. Treasury also disclosed General Motors electric Chevrolet Bolt and Bolt EUV will qualify for the full $7,500 tax credit. GM said earlier it expected at least some of its EVS would qualify for the $7,500 tax credit under the new rules, including the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq and forthcoming Chevrolet Equinox EV SUV and Blazer EV SUV. Treasury said all GM EVs will qualify. Earlier, Ford Motor and Chrysler-parent Stellantis said most of their electric and PHEV models would see tax credits halved to $3,750 on April 18. Treasury confirmed the automakers' calculations. The rules were announced last month and mandated by Congress in August as part of the $430 billion Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The IRA requires 50% of the value of battery components be produced or assembled in North America to qualify for $3,750, and 40% of the value of critical minerals sourced from the United States or a free trade partner for a $3,750 credit. The law required vehicles to be assembled in North America to qualify for any tax credits, which in August eliminated nearly 70% of eligible models and on Jan. 1 new price caps and limits on buyers income took effect.

2014 Ford Transit unveiled in Chassis Cab and Cutaway versions
Fri, 08 Mar 2013As a leader in commercial vehicles here in the US, we knew Ford wouldn't take too long to show off the chassis cab and cutaway versions of its 2014 Ford Transit van. Set to go on sale this fall, Ford already revealed the full-body version of the Transit, and now it has pulled the cover off exposed-frame models just in time to to compete against the all-new Ram Promaster.
The term "chassis cab" refers to models with a fully enclosed cabin used for box vans or rental trucks, while cutaway models leave the cabin open behind the B-pillars for a pass-through on vehicles such as Class C motorhomes or ambulances. Both will offer three wheelbase options (138, 156 and 178 inches), the choice of single or dually rear axles, and plenty of upfitter-friendly touches including a pre-wired body harness and multiple body mount locations.
The new design will also help make upfitting a little easier since the fuel filler is now built into the cab (just behind the driver's door). Those integrated fuel filler necks will serve to feed either a 3.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, or a 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel. Transit chassis cab and cutaways will wear varying Gross vehicle weight ratings from 9,000 pounds to 10,360 pounds depending on spec.
