First and foremost this is a REPLICA. I have had several and this is by far the nicest, best looking, most
detailed, and best driving example to date. The build started with an early (pre-merger) MidStates fiberglass body
and chassis, built before the Shell Valley merger. The paint, panel gaps, and overall quality of this car are top
notch without the squeaks, rattles, and other characteristics of lesser builds. The underside of the car is
painted in most places and extremely nice as well. This car is well sorted out, has the best of everything
available at the time of the build, and will turn more heads than most exotics. It is an absolute animal when you
want it to be, but has really good street manners for a 600+ hp 427 stuffed inside a 2000 lbs car.

It is titled as a 1965 Ford and has a clean title,


ENGINE- This car features a true, Serial #CSX495, all aluminum FE, Shelby motor. The engine has a Scat stroker
crank, Oliver billet rods, Wiseco pistons, Edelbrock Performer FE ported heads, Edelbrock 427 victor Victor intake,
and Ferrea stainless racing valves. A massive King Demon 795 carburetor sits on top of it all. The engine made
580HP/586ft lbs on pump gas. This thing sounds like a cross between a Nascar, a Harley, and a top fuel dragster
and is extremely angry.

Transmission- Tremec TKO road race 5-speed transmission with mid-shift shifter position. Lakewood bell housing,
Mcloed clutch, pressure plate, and hydraulic throw out bearing.

Rear End- 9" Ford, custom narrowed with Moser axels, richmond ring and pinion (3.73), and Strange Limited Slip
differential.

Suspension- 4-Link suspension set up with adjustable Alden shocks and coil-overs.

Brakes/Misc- Wilwood disc up front, 1980 Trans Am rotors with Cadillac disc in back. Wilwood portioning valve,
and Ford brake booster and master cylinder. All brake and hard fuel lines are stainless.

Appearance/Other- The car features 15" Halibrand style knockoff replicas (5 lug) with 235/60-15s in the front and
295/50-15s in the rear. The wipers, all lights, heater, and all gauges work like intended. The dash features an
MSD timing control knob.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
