1968 Ford Torino GT, North Carolina car.......

The car is complete with the follwong exceptions: Hood lip molding, trim rings. Car has rollers on it and the correct 4 steel wheels are in the trunk.

The 302 engine does run and sounds OK, no knocks, pings or smoke. As far as the transmission is concerned, its a 3 speed manual that was on the column but has moved to the floor, she goes into all 4 gears with ease. The brakes are bad and the tires are dry rotted. The exhaust is intact and goes out all the way to the rear bumper. There is not a power steering belt on the car but the power steering system is complete. The electrical has some gremlins, lights work, brake lights work, marker lights and etc, all there but needs gone over.... I also have a column that was for a 4 speed that I will give with the car, that way you only have the floor shifter.

The interior is complete, back seats are not torn, rear package tray ok, needs headliner, all door panels are ok except the drivers which has a small tear but the door lock knob, carpet worn, dash pad is straight and free of cracks. Front bench is torn but cushion is not exposed. All seat belts are on car and back are still in plastic.

All trim is on the car and in need of polishing/re-chroming, the bumper are straight but do need re-chromed. All the glass is Ok with the exception of the windshield but a used OEM one goes with the car. All the weather stripping is shot.

Body is in need of paint, hood is shot, fenders are rust free except for light scale..no holes, outside of the doors have a few small bubbles appearing on the outside but there are no holes showing on the outside, the drivers door has a hole in the bottom corner but can be repaired and should be as the bottom of the door is ok. The trunk lid has one spot on the out side but is definitely repairable as the underneath is ok. The quarters do not show any rot and the lips are ok, but there are signs of old body work to the pass quarter from inside the trunk, old school rivets can be seen near the wheel well. Roof is ok. The tail light panel is ok.

The underneath, both front torque boxes will need work, the passenger side being the worse. The floor pans and rails are ok with scale no holes. The front section of the car around near the core/radiator support will need repair. Battery tray is gone but the apron does not have a whole through it. Cowl looks ok.....Trunk section has a few holes starting to appear on the upper section but no major rot, spring hangers are solid as well as the rails.

This is a 45 year old car that has had prior body work and has been sitting, please keep that in mind when bidding. I encourage you to come a see the car and to check all the pics I have at flickr.com then type in jkupka search under people. Ebay changed their rules and I can no longer provide the link.

If you need any more pics let me know and any questions answered I will do my best. I'm human and do miss things but have done as much as I can to describe what I see. I will provide my telephone number if asked thru ebay ask the seller.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.

Ford files trademark application for 'Model E'

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

In early December, Ford filed an application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Model E." Historically, Ford never produced a Model E, and while automakers are known to file for trademarks they never use, some have wondered if the application might be used for a concept car.
Based on other recent events, though, it could be a legal move. In 2000 Ford sued an online start-up called Model E over the similarity of that name to Ford's industry-shaping Model T, but the judge dismissed the case citing lack of proper grounds. In August 2013, Tesla applied for trademark registration for Model E, and at the time, Ford said it would review the application. Tesla actually made two applications for Model E, one for automobiles and structural parts therefore, the other for "providing maintenance and repair services for automobiles," and there are plenty of theories about what the name could be applied to.
The Published for Opposition date for Tesla's applications is December 31, 2013, after which anyone who thinks they'd be harmed by Tesla being granted the trademark gets 30 days to register their issues. This is just speculation, but Ford's application - which was filed for automobiles only - might be about protecting what it sees as unwelcome encroachment on the name Model T, protection it wasn't able to enforce before when the stakes were only online and much smaller.
