I am offering for sale my 1931 Ford Model A Pick-up. I am the second owner of this truck since it was rebuilt as a street rod. The chassis was built in Charlotte, NC. The rest of the truck was build in CT. The truck is all steel. All original steel except the bed which is and aftermarket steel bed. The engine is a 1960's 327 Chevrolet which is equipped with an Edelbrock enduroshine intake and two Edelbrock enduroshine four barrel carbs. It also has tuned headers. It has excellent chrome bumpers front and back. The exhausts are new. It has disc brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear. It has coil over shocks on the back. The suspension and undercarriage work is excellent. It has Coker classic tires which have 95% of their tread. I have installed a new Stewart-Warner speedometer which works. Still using the original gas tank which is between the dash and the firewall/engine compartment. The original fuel gauge still works fine, has a new float on it. Still using the original ignition switch. Have installed a correct steering wheel. The air conditioning (tilt-out windshield) works fine. The headlight bar is a "drop down" style which sets the headlights down a little lower and gives a better "street machine" look. The front bumper brackets are mounted upside down which lowers the bumper. I have very recently added the cowl lights. The turn signals are in the headlights and they work fine. I have just installed new LED tail/brake lights so others can see you better at night. The seats are covered with vinyl, cloth would be better. There is an instrument panel overhead. It includes an oil pressure gauge, amp meter, water temp. gauge and a newly installed tachometer. In that overhead console is an AM/FM stereo with CD player. All the metal is good. Running boards, fenders, corners, bed and all have zero rust. The battery is in the yellow "Things go better with Coke" cooler in the bed. All the electronics work. There are switches for most things on the driver's side kick panel. The starter button, horn button, headlight/park light switch, instrument panel light switch and cowl light switch are all located there. The interior light (overhead) switch is located in a storage compartment over the driver's head. Oh yes, I forgot, there are two storage compartments, one on each side in the overhead console. Each windshield wiper has its own switch. The door handles are original. They pull "to you" to open the doors. There is an electric heater under the seat. It is ducted to both driver and passenger's feet and does a pretty good job on cold days.

This little truck is extremely well constructed. It is tight, no rattles, and rides really good. It will run like a scared rabbit if you wish to get into it. (I don't.) A friend of mine has a '35 Ford coupe street rod and the first time he rode in my truck he kept on commenting about how good it rides. It is not a real show winner, but is a hell-of-a-good cruise-in truck.

I have tried to describe the little truck as best I can. If I failed to address something you want to know, just email me and I will try to get back to you with the proper information. Thanks for looking and good look bidding!

Three electric vehicles — none produced by an American manufacturer Â— will compete next month for the title of 2024 World Car of the Year, it was announced Monday. The finalists are the Kia EV9, the Volvo EX30Â and the BYD SealÂ (shown above). The latter two are built in China. The three top finalists in five other categories were also named at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. The winners in all six categories will be revealed live during an awards ceremony at the New York International Auto Show on March 27. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. Besides car of the year, the other finalists are: Electric vehicle: BMW i5, Kia EV9, Volvo EX30; Luxury car: BMW 5 Series/i5, Mercedes Benz E-Class, Mercedes Benz EQE SUV; Performance car: BMW M2, BMW XM, Hyundai Ionia 5 N; Urban car: BYD Dolphin, Lexus LBX, Volvo EX30; World Car Design: Ford Bronco, Ferrari Purosangue, Toyota Prius. Only Ford among U.S. companies has an entry in the final selections, and only in one category, design, for the Bronco. BMW has four vehicles in the finals, Volvo has three, Kia and Mercedes have two each. BYD from China has two entries as well. The Seal went on sale in in its home market in 2022 and is now available in most of the rest of the world. The BYD Co. (which stands for Build Your Dreams) has surpassed Tesla to become the worldÂ’s biggest maker of electric vehicles, and has its sights set on the U.S. The selection process for World Cars involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. Design/Style Geneva Motor Show BMW Ferrari Ford Hyundai Kia Lexus Mercedes-Benz Toyota Volvo Best Cars World Car of the Year

Jay Leno drives postcard-perfect '32 Ford Highboy Roadster

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

At the turn of the century, it was arguably the Honda Civic that best defined inexpensive performance tuning, and in the '50s it was the Tri-5 Chevys. One of the earliest platforms to gain a huge following among young people looking for a cheap way to go fast was the classic '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. This week, Jay Leno's Garage looks at one of the very first vehicles that defined the look of the hot rod heyday.
This '32 Ford was built in the '40s and graced the cover of the fourth issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in 1948. All of the hot rods that you see shining at car shows today owe a serious debt of gratitude to this roadster. It bears all of the cues that define the look, including a notched frame and hidden door hinges. Under the three-piece hood is a flathead V8 boasting all sorts of period modifications, including copper cylinder heads. It was seriously fast in its era too, and proved it by reaching 112.21 miles per hour on a dry lakebed in 1947.
These days, this hot rod is on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Although, if you can't make it to California to see it, the United States Postal Service is celebrating this Ford with one of its two hot rod Forever stamps. Like Jay says in the video, in terms of hot rodding, "it all comes back to this." Check out the video to learn more about this rolling piece of tuning history.
