Feast your eyes upon this breathtaking 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica from the world leader in Shelby Cobra's -
SUPERFORMANCE. The only replica builder to be endorsed and licensed by racing legend and designer, Carroll Shelby.
Every car that leaves the Superformance factory is the best of the best with exacting details that truly make them
works of art. This particular Cobra is finished in Posilipo Blue with White hood stripes and Black leather
interior. You will not find another Superformance Cobra that came from the factory in this color Blue and White
stripes.
Meticulously built to the highest standards with all brand new parts from the top names in racing and performance
products. From the fire breathing 408 Windsor engine to the Tremec 3550 5 speed transmission right on back to the
independent rear suspension with 3:73 axle with coil over adjustable shocks, this beast was built to run and built
right. The engine has an Eagle cast stroker crank, Eagle H-beam connecting rods, Comp Cams roller camshaft,
Edelbrock Performer RPM cylinder heads, ARP main, connecting rod and head bolts as well as roller rocker arms. The
Holley Street Avenger 750cfm carb sits on top of an aluminum Weiend Stealth intake manifold. With 9.8:1 compression
ratio the desktop dyno estimates 450 hp and 480 ft-lbs of torque.
Even with all that power, stopping is no problem thanks to the Willwood power disk brakes and Goodyear Eagle GT
tires that wrap Trigo true knock off wheels. With only 5,200 miles since new, you will be able to enjoy your new
Cobra for many years and many miles to come. The only thing this Shelby needs is a new owner. The original
owner/builder spared no expense in building this simply stunning vehicle. He also spares no expense in maintenance
and care. All of the original build and purchase documents as well as the maintenance receipts will be included
with the car.
Mention Shelby Cobra to a group of car enthusiasts and heartbeats will quicken, memories will lead to great stories
and someone will bring up the beauty of the car. Just like the Porsche Speedster, Mercedes Gullwing Coupe, Auburn
Speedster and the ever famous Ferrari Spyder, the Cobra is one of the timeless greats. This example is no
exception!! The exterior has a show quality base coat/clear coat paint over a hand laminated fiberglass body. The
level of detail in the body and trim is simply amazing. All of the chrome, polished aluminum and painted parts are
of the highest quality. The Superformance Shelby Cobra is built to the highest quality detail with all new parts to
match the original style and design inside and out. These cars are brutally fast with a thundering, spine tingling
sound that is second to none.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014



The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
