This 93 year old Speedster may be one of the few still left running, and its rarity adds to its excitement. Museum quality restoration completed in April 2013 by Ronald Russel. This wonderful piece of machinery had its first show on April 7, 2013 and this speedster took first in class at the Eliot Car Museum show.
In the restoration, a high compression aluminum head was installed, along with a High Volume Aluminum intake manifold. Also added was a new alternator, and the entire drive train was rebuilt, including ring and pinion gears, spider gears, universal joint, bearings, bushings and seals. The engine starts very easily, either by battery or by crank. Features of this car include a Steward Speedometer, a 1916 Appleton Spotlight (works), and a 1911 Pyrene Fire extinguisher. The car also has a battery cutoff switch, and a very rare 1920 License plate, which is registered in Florida to the car.
This car is a blast to drive, and most parts for it are still available throughout the US. It is a great car for a showroom floor, Car shows, or an occasional parade, or ride around the neighborhood. I am downsizing my car collection, and need to make room for my other vehicles. Interested parties can reach me (Frank) at 863 381-2444 for more details or information.

Reflecting on the Ford GT on its 10-year anniversary
Thu, 10 Apr 2014Ten years ago, during the bright-eyed enthusiasm of the early 2000s and before the collective automotive industry did its best Titanic impression, we had the Ford GT. An everyman's supercar like there'd never been (remember, this was before 638-horsepower Corvettes were a thing), the GT arrived with a supercharged, 5.4-liter V8 that produced 550 horsepower and graced this retro-styled rocket with an easy, sub-four-second sprint to 60 miles per hour.
Equal to the GT's performance were its looks. Inspired by the GT40 racers that dominated Le Mans and bested Ferrari in the 1960s, the sleek, low, almost-reptilian look of the GT was the absolute pinnacle of the retro styling that so defined the early 2000s.
Crank and Piston put together a video celebrating the ten-year-old GT, arguing that Ford is a bit too busy with the next-gen Mustang, which turns 50 next week, to do it themselves. In the short clip, there is gratuitous engine noise and supercharger whine, not to mention scenes of the white-on-red GT prowling the deserts and streets of Dubai. It's a bit short, but very nicely shot. Scroll down, have a look and be sure to turn up those speakers before getting started.
2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely
Fri, 29 Aug 2014When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.
