polished solid brass. The radiator shell is from a 1924 Durant Star and

16in electric fan mounted to back side to keep the performance 350 Chevy
motor cool. The motor has a new water pump! New Fuel pump! New Hi

the satin black Chevrolet tall valve covers. The exhaust is giving the
car that fast racing look! They are sprint car style headers and have
built in mufflers and are covered in a nice header wrap. Now for the
transmission. It's a Chevy turbo 350 with a 2400 stall convertor and
shifted into gear via a custom made shifter. (see pics) the rear end is a

made from sheet steel and have padded inserts. Now the Dash. This is a
rare part here! It is from a 1934 Huppmobile 3 window coupe model W136.
Few of these cars were made and even the fewer still exists. We filled
all the holes on the middle of the dash and moved the glove box door to
the left side of the car. Then we filled the factory holes in the center
of dash then mounted VDO classic style speedo/temp/oil pressure gauges.
There is a airplane style toggle for the ignition and a hidden key
switch under the dash beside the steering column. Mounted to the
steering column is the turn signal switch and horn button. All glass in
the sedan has been replaced with new laminated safety glass. All side
windows door and qrt glass still crank up and down. I am sure somewhere
in here I have forgot something so if u have any questions please just
ask! U can call or txt me at 260-715-188O.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects
Thu, 16 May 2013Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.
'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
2015 Ford Mustang gets pricing, configurator and less weight than expected
Fri, 13 Jun 2014It's here; it's finally here. No more speculating or looking at dealer order guides, the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang is finally online. That means you should put down whatever you're doing and build your new 'Stang. Weight data for the new model has also leaked out, and while there is an increase, it's less than previously rumored.
The basic V6 coupe carries a base price of $23,600, plus an additional $825 destination charge for all models. Upgrading to the 2.3-liter Ecoboost costs $25,170, and the Ecoboost Premium is $29,170. If you need a V8 in your life, the Mustang GT is $32,100 or $36,100 with the Premium package. That puts the starting price up about $1,000 over the previous generation for the V6, but the turbocharged four-cylinder starts about $1,400 less than the V6 Premium, which is no longer available. Prices for both V8 models jumped about $1,000, as well.
If you need the convertible Mustang, the V6 starts at $29,100, excluding destination, $1,590 more than last year. The Ecoboost Premium 'vert is $34,670, and the GT droptop is $41,600.
