This is a project that needs finishing and has no title but will provide a bill-of-sale. It is about 85 percent finished. Has a custom frame made out of 2x3 square tubing that is Z'd up in the back to a Model T crossmember. The front axle is original with split wishbones and a spring behind the axle. It has 40's front drums and backing plates. The rear is a 8" Ford with a Model A spring and split wishbones. There are no brakes up front but the back has all new wheel cylinders and pads and has a master cylinder mounted on the frame with a brake line ran along the frame to the back just needs fluid and bled. Has gas line and battery cable ran along other side of frame to the back just needs hooked up. Has a Corvair steering box and a new speedway column and u-joint. The wire wheels are 30's model with new tires on back and front tires are in good shape with plenty of tread. The motor is a rebuilt 327 Chevy with Vortex heads, aluminum intake with a 650 Holley Carb. The tranny is a rebuilt power glide and both motor and tranny has NO MILES on them. The Army Jeep gas cans are the gas tanks they just need plumbed to each other and the wood ammo box is for the battery/storage as is the two lower ammo boxes. Has a Army trailer tail light. The body and frame is primered satin black and the firewall, wheels and suspension is painted satin green. What it needs to finish is a wiring harness, head lights, seat brackets, drive shaft tunnel, steering column drop and a shifter. I have a brake and gas pedal that goes with the car, they just need to be installed. Needs a grill shell but I have a Mustang style radiator to go with it. The floor and body still needs to be bolted to the frame. The motor needs a water pump, fan, alternator, distributor and wires to get it running. For more info, please contact me at 512/844-9406. Serious inquiries ONLY.....no dreamers.

2015 Ford Mustang: Obsessively covered [w/videos + poll]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Here at Autoblog, we've officially stamped December 5, 2013, as Ford Mustang Day. Sure, the sixth-generation Pony Car started leaking out onto the web days ago, but all of the official, non-embargoed hotness has come out today. And man, there's been a lot.
In terms of new car debuts, this is a really big one - not unlike all of the Corvette madness that kicked off the 2013 automotive season. So to make sure you haven't missed anything, here's a wrap-up of everything you need to know about the 2015 Ford Mustang.
Deep Dive: 2015 Ford Mustang
How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality
Wed, 01 May 2013The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.
