Up for auction is a T Bucket Roadster.  I am selling this car for a friend that inherited it from his grandfather.  This car is titled as a "homebuilt".  It began construction in 1966 in Southern California and is titled as a 1966. My friends grandfather purchased it in the late 70s and owned it until he passed a few years ago.  In the early 90s, he had the car repainted and a new interior installed, both are still in excellent condition.  The last upgrade that he completed was in the late 90s when he converted the front drum brakes to discs. It is powered by a 1958 Corvette 283 with a turbo 350 3 speed automatic transmission and a 9" ford posi trac rear end.  It is a fiberglass bucket with steel tube frame.  I'm not sure what the gear ratio is, but the car is very driveable.  It has an electric fuel pump and internally regulated alternator.  It has a Holly Street Dominator intake mankifold and the factory corvette valve covers.  The odometer shows 25,727 miles, but I can not guarantee the accuracy.  The engine and trans have no leaks, but the rear diff has a very slight leak, common problem with 9" Fords.  The emergency brake is a drive shaft mounted disc brake with a pull handle in the floor.  Front suspension is all chrome, in excellent condition with the inverted leaf spring.  Rear suspension is the same inverted leaf spring with air shocks that are good.  The dash has a fuel gauge, amp meter, temp, oil pressure and speedo, all work.  When he decided to sell the car, we installed a new battery and a new carburetor, Edelbrock polished.  We replaced one brake line and flushed the brake system.  The header side pipes have baffles in them, so it is not incredibly loud, but it does thump!  I am located in Olathe, KS, southwest side of Kansas City and will show the car any time.  The car runs and drives great and is absolutely an "Old School hot rod".  I am selling this car with no reserve, It will sell!  Please ask questions early so I have time to provide adequate answers.  I can provide additional pictures if you like.  I will require a $500 deposit through Pay Pal within 24 hours of auction end and the balance paid in cash or cashiers check within 7 days.  I will assist with loading if you have the car shipped and I can store the car for up to 14 days.  If you need additional terms, please have those agreed upon prior to acution end.  Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack

Sat, May 30 2015

With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.

Next-gen Ford Taurus spotted in China

Fri, Jan 2 2015

We're getting our first look at the next-generation Ford Taurus thanks to some spy shooters in China. While the camouflage and angle of the photo keep changes to the body a secret, there's no hiding the massive hexagonal, chrome grille up front. It lends a look very similar to the Fusion. Beyond the eye-grabbing grille, the headlights are reshaped, but are still quite squinty. There's also a new lower air dam that runs the width of the front with LEDs at the top corners. The hexagonal grille fits the design of the Fusion well, but this single image makes it look a little too big and disproportionate for the fullsize Ford sedan. Maybe the integration works better from a different angle, though. The next-gen Taurus is rumored debut for the 2016 model year and reportedly rides on a stretched and widened version of the Fusion's platform. Ford's big goal for the new model is allegedly to shed as many pounds from the scales as possible. The sedan also may get a nine-speed automatic to boost fuel economy. The engine range is still a mystery, but EcoBoost options are practically a sure thing, possibly even making up the whole model lineup.
