Up for sale is a 1931 Ford model A coupe. The chassis is custom made from 2x3 steel tubing that houses the flathead ford backed with a 5 speed T5 transmission. The front suspension is a Speedway Motors tubular drop with radius hairpin rods with a cross style leaf spring in the front. The spindles are early ford with a late model disc brake conversion on them. Steering is a F100 box and column. The rear suspension is a Speedway Motors street rod 4 link with a panhard bar. The rearend is a ford 8" with all stock internals with stock drum brakes on the back. The rear does have some QA1 coil over shocks and springs. The wheels are American Racing Salt Flat Specials with 165r15 fronts and some reproduction Hurst Pie crust slicks on the back, and the rears do have a DOT number on them to be legal. The body has been chopped (roughly) 4 inches and channeled about 3 inches over the frame. The internal structure of the body is 1x1" steel tube with the roof having a reproduction wood kit to hold the original style vinyl top in. The front windshield is the only window in the car and it does still tilt outward into the cowl area. The master cylinder is in the dash for a clean look also. The gauges are Lincoln, some which work. The flooring is cast aluminum sections from a firetruck that have been cut to fit, and the seat is some padding over wood and blankets stapled on. There is also two aircraft style seatbelts. All the lights work, headlights, running, brake, and turn signals. The engine is a early flathead with a 12V alternator that looks like a generator. The starter is also newer 12v. The engine has a 4-71 blower on it with no rotors inside. Two strombergs on top top off the engine with a set of lake style headers expelling the spent fumes. Car runs great, very nice to cruise in and gets looks everywhere it goes. The engine holds good oil pressure and runs extremely cool. Car is available to be looked at in person in Greenwood, IN with an appointment as I am always traveling. Please ask any questions before bidding.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
Chip Ganassi Racing switches to the Ford EcoBoost-powered Riley Daytona Prototype
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) announced yesterday at Ford's SEMA press conference that it will field a Ford-Riley Daytona Prototype with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 in the 2014 United SportsCar Championship (USCC). CGRFS is the second team to commit to the new Ford-Riley car, behind Michael Shank Racing (which has already used the racecar to break a 26-year-old top-speed record at Daytona International Speedway).
"Over the last 10 seasons we have been able to experience a great deal of success in Grand-Am," Chip Ganassi says, "and now with the dawn of the new United SportsCar Championship we feel that Ford power will be a key ingredient to writing the next chapter of our sports car program."
In the last Grand-Am season, CGRFS raced a BMW-Riley Daytona Prototype. The team has won seven Daytona Prototype championships, all in the past ten years. Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas return as the team's prototype co-drivers, and will attend their maiden race in the Ford-Riley at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
