SHHHHHHHH!!!!! THIS IS A SURPRISE!!!!

For Devon, 2026

[FJ] ZX3FORD

Some of us have been around the Focus since the very beginning. Devon King was one of the first, one of the OGs who helped shape what Focaljet became back in the early 2000s. Twenty-six years later, the cars have changed, the forums have changed, but the people haven't. We've drifted in and out of each other's lives, but we've never really lost touch.

Now Devon needs a kidney. He's been on the transplant list for nine years. The medical bills have been brutal, and the strain has forced him and his wife to sell nearly everything, including all of his enthusiast cars. They're down to one vehicle between them.

This is where we come in. As a group of OGs, we're buying Devon another Focus. We're going to fix it up, make it right, and hand it over to him this November. It's a small thing next to what he's facing, but it's ours to give, and it's ours to do together.

This page is the home for the project. You'll find the details here, the progress, and the ways you can help. We have a long way to go on the money, and every bit of it matters.

This could be any of us. It just happened to be Devon.

The Bike

2000 Kona Blast - Ford Focus Edition - Project Blasted

The 2000 Ford Focus Kona Edition remains the only Ford vehicle ever sold with a matching bicycle. Devon’s first Focus was one of these rare Kona Editions, so as we bring the Kona trim and accessories to this custom Focus, we’re also including a Kona Blast Ford Focus Edition mountain bike—fully customized to match Dev’s new car.

This particular bike carries its own piece of Focus community history. In 1999–2000, FocusRush.com owner James Stanley was working his first job as a bike builder at Mission Cyclery in San Diego when Ford contracted the shop to assemble and tune every Kona Blast bike destined for Southwest dealerships. This exact bike is one of the originals James built.

Fast-forward to today, and James has completely reimagined it to complement Dev’s Focus. Only four original parts remain: the seat post, seat-post clamp, stem, and handlebars. Everything else has been upgraded, replaced, or modified. It’s not an extreme race machine, but the leap in component quality and performance is substantial.
