1931 Ford Rat Rod

I'm sure as the first cars rolled off the assembly line, Henry Ford could little imagine what an impact they would have on the world. Not only from a transportation and infrastructure standpoint, but from an integral cultural one. And as soon as they ended up in the hands of the "creative types" people started making them their own. The birth of the hotrod was decades away, but the seeds of that phenomenon were sown in those assembly plants in Michigan. Speaking of creative types and hot rods, check out this stunning rat rod from redfern1950s2! The color combination of sand green and black says old and new at the same time. And the souped up engine says "I'll see you in my rear view mirror".

Technic Ford Edge

This Technic Ford Edge by builder chumuhou is pretty insane. There's no description or links to learn more about it, so I can't tell you what specific features it has, but the battery pack and motors visible from below make it look like a fully functioning RC car. The body styling is fantastic, right down to the Ford emblem on the awesome front grill. 

Ford Bronco

You can practically hear inspirational music, smell the pine and see the magnificent vistas from some spectacular natural monument when you look at this adventure ready Ford Bronco from Lino M. It may be a bit dated, but it is no doubt classic American outdoors. Now for some reason I'm craving hot chocolate by a campfire while everyone else ruins marshmallows.

Matter Of Life And Death

Builders LinoM and rabidnovaracer have teamed up for March's LUGnuts challenge "Matter of life and death" to bring us two vehicles two vehicles designed for a critical moment in life, namely the potential end of it. Should disaster strike you might find yourself in the Flatline Ford, racing to the hospital. But if things shouldn't go too well you might end up in the Hells Bells Hearse. Either way you're traveling in style.

'32 Ford

It's a hotrody (is that a word?) morning here at BrickNerd. The king of chrome bricksonwheels is back with another stunning and beautiful hotrod. The paint scheme and balance of chrome to color really appeals to me. I've always thought earth tone cars are the most difficult to get right, but the most gorgeous when they nail it. This one nails it.

Ford GT

If you look up "sleek" on webster.com you get the definition (as it applies here) of "having trim graceful lines <a sleek car>". That really doesn't seem to evoke the same emotional response as the lines and contours of this gorgeous Ford GT by Firas Abu-Jaber. The elegant intersecting forms of this MOC are effortless and beautiful.

Gone Bananas

Builder _Tiler never ceases to impress me, achieving phenomenal detail at small scale and using such creative building techniques. This yellow Ford is Milner's iconic hotrod from American Graffiti, and it looks fast. And the banana reference isn't just about the color, check out the back fenders, genius.

Poison Pinto

When I was a kid, there was a time when the driveway was occupied by a classic beetle, and a Ford Pinto. That car was a piece of junk and the whole family pretty much dreaded going anywhere in it. Now if had been even remotely as cool as this awesome MOC by Proudlove, I'm sure we would have been trying to think of excuses to go for a ride all the time. Well, the kids maybe, I couldn't see my mom wanting to go anywhere near this car.

Mustang

She's one of the most iconic muscle cars ever created, the Ford Mustang. Whether you're a fan or not, you can't deny the influence and popularity of this little sports car that burst onto the scene in 1964. Now Peteris Sprogis has created one of the finest reproductions in brick I've ever seen, it's just awesome.

Shelby GT500

This is a seriously mean looking machine. Shelby is synonymous with muscle, and this MOC by Sheepo is faithful to the name. There's quite a few pictures of this beast on Flickr, click through to gawk.
