NOSTALGIC 1929 FORD ROADSTER PICKUP THAT EVOKES THE EARLIEST DAYS OF RODDING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DURING THE LATE 1930s AND EARLY POST WAR ERA.

NO SMALL BLOCK CHEVY OR EVEN A FLATHEAD V-8 HERE BUT AN ORIGINAL MODEL A 4 BANGER WITH PERIOD SPEED PARTS INCLUDING A VINTAGE MALLORY DUAL POINT DISTRIBUTOR, VINTAGE THOMAS TWO CARB MANIFOLD AND MATCHING FINNED ALUMINUM HIGH COMPRESSION HEAD, CAST IRON SWEPT-BACK "HEADERS", AND MORE.

CHASSIS AND DRIVETRAIN ARE TOTALLY AND FULLY REBUILT FROM FRONT TO BACK WITH ALL NEW BEARINGS, BUSHINGS, SEALS, SHACKLES, SPRINGS, SPINDLES, NEW BRAKE COMPONENTS INCLUDING SHOES, CYLINDERS, SPRINGS, DRUMS, AND HUBS. FULLY REBUILT ENGINE W/ NEW BABBITT, PISTONS, TIMING GEARS, VALVES, SPRINGS, ETC. NOTHING WAS OVERLOOKED.

BRAKES ARE '48 FORD HYDRAULIC, DROPPED FRONT AXLE. CHASSIS IS "Z"ed AT THE REAR IN THE TIME HONORED WAY. BRAND NEW FIRESTONE WIDE WHITES.

THE ONE CONCESSION MADE TO DRIVING ON MODERN ROADS IS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ORIGINAL TRANNY WITH A T-5 FIVE SPEED WHICH DOES ABSOLUTE WONDERS TO CRUISING SPEED AND IT LOOKS TOTALLY NORMAL.

THE PICKUP IS PAINTED IN "BATTLESHIP" GRAY SIMILAR TO WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN BOUGHT AT AN ARMY SURPLUS STORE IN THE LATE FORTIES AND THE PAINT WAS APPLIED USING TECHNIQUES DEVELOPED TO GIVE IT A PATINA OF AGE THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DISTINGUISH FROM VERY OLD PAINT. A OLD WORN LEATHER COUCH WAS USED. CAREFULLY REMOVED THE HIDES, AND RE-CYCLED THEM TO UPHOLSTER THE SEATS AND INTERIOR GIVING THE INTERIOR A WARM, MELLOW LOOK AND FEEL.

IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THIS IS THE FUTURE OF RESTORATION, THE CAR WORLD HAVING BEGUN TO GROW TIRED OF THE ULTRA-SLICK, ULTRA-SHINY, OVER-RESTORED TRAILER QUEENS THAT HAVE PROLIFERATED AT CAR SHOWS IN RECENT YEARS. I THINK IT IS TIME TO PUT CARS BACK ON THE STREET AND USE THEM AS THEY WERE USED SO MANY YEARS AGO.

ON THE ROAD, IT IS GREAT FUN, SOUNDS GREAT, AND GOES LIKE A MODEL A ON STEROIDS.

THIS IS NOT JUST ANOTHER FORD ROADSTER PICKUP, IT IS A UNIQUE WORK OF ART THAT WILL NEVER BE REPEATED OR REPRODUCED. FOR MORE INFO PLEASE CALL (505) 681-5296

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012

Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
