Tired of showing up at the cruise night and someone having the same type of car as yours? THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN! This is a one of a kind, custom '23 Ford T-Bucket powered by a Boeing 502 Turbojet engine. This isn't some hack job that someone built in their backyard, this is a well engineered, thought out, aircraft quality built vehicle. As you can see, everything is well laid out and engineered with much thought to the end vehicle. Everything is either polished or chrome including a chrome rear end, front axle, springs, suspension links, tie rods, etc.
The power plant in this vehicle is a Boeing 502 Turbojet engine. This engine was designed by the Boeing company in Washington state to be used in many different applications. They have been used in everything from powering fire trucks, Kenworth road tractors/semis, large Navy minesweeper generator systems, and even powering the prop on small aircraft. It has tremendous amounts of torque, so much as a transmission is not even needed. All that is needed is forward and reverse and nothing else. Everything for the engine is well laid out, including all stainless steel braided lines for the fuel system, aircraft quality wiring, relays, solenoids, and fuse blocks. One of the attention-grabbing qualities of this T-bucket is the exhaust system, which diverts the heat to both sides of the vehicle. To really impress everyone at cruise night, it also has a fire system designed to shoot fire out of both sides of the exhaust! It has a deep, black finish in perfect condition. A black leather interior sets it off. Huge amount of gauges covering all aspects of the engine and vehicle performance. Vehicle has rear brakes operated by foot pedal and also a power turbine brake operated by a T-handle in the center of the console. Engine is operated by hand throttle in the console, just like an aircraft. Easy to start and drive. It also has a funny car style Deist parachute to set off the rear end of the car. Also included are a custom car cover, a custom charger for the battery system, complete service and parts manual, and a copy of the original Navy film showing service, maintenance, and operating instructions for the engine. This is the kind of vehicle you would expect to see at a museum, Jay Leno's garage, a Barrett Jackson or Meccum Auto auction. Note: The vehicle is not titled for street use, we just drove at car shows, cruise nights, etc. Ebay requires that something is entered on title status. There is not a title for this vehicle at the present time. There are many companies out there that will be able to help with acquiring for a custom built vehicle such as this, we never pursued it ourselves. You may be able to easily acquire a title in your state on your own, as you know, each state is different. If you have any questions about this, please contact us before bidding.

Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014
Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).
Ford names Lincoln chief as North American president following Nair's departure
Thu, Feb 22 2018Ford announced yesterday that its North American president Raj Nair would no longer be working for the company due to "inappropriate behavior." As a result, the company needed fill that gaping vacancy. The new North American president and Ford Group vice president will be Kumar Galhotra, and his term in the new role will start on March 1. Galhotra will remain the group vice president and chief marketing officer for Lincoln through March, meaning he's the head of the luxury brand. He's had this position since 2014. Before that, he was vice president of engineering for all of Ford. With Galhotra's promotion, a number of internal promotions follow. Joy Falotico, current chairman, CEO and group vice president of Ford's credit division will fill Galhotra's position, and Dave McClelland, vice president of marketing for Ford Asia Pacific, will fill her role. Other shuffling at Ford includes Stewart Rawley's promotion to vice president for Ford North America and chief operating officer. He is the current vice president for strategy at Ford. Ford China's chairman and CEO John Lawler will take Rawley's old role, and Cathy O'Callaghan will take over Lawler's job at Ford China, but not until June 1. O'Callaghan is currently vice president, corporate controller and chief financial officer for global markets at Ford. Related Video:
Inside the Ford GT's interior
Mon, Mar 23 2015Ford has crafted a simple yet high-tech interior for the GT supercar, which has been on display at auto shows around the world this year. The instrument panel has a two-tier design with a floating wing. There are soft-touch materials and carbon fiber, which also is used for the passenger cell. Still, the GT's interior has been shrouded in more mystery than the rest of the car. To cast some light on the GT's cabin, we caught up with Ford design vice president Moray Callum, who explained the ins and outs of the future icon's interior. Put simply, "there's not a lot of excess materials," Callum said. But what is there is pretty cool. In case you haven't heard, Ford plans to launch the GT in 2016. It will run a mid-mounted twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and make extensive use of carbon fiber for the body structure. Related Video:
