This was my Fathers 1969 Ford Talladega project car, it has a clean title. It is a rolling chassis, very solid with only small holes in the front bottom of the rear quarter panels and one hole in the trunk next to the fuel tank vent line in the rear corner, frame rail is NOT involved. The car has subframe connectors installed but they could be removed. The body is about 65% original Talladega with sections replaced and most if not all panels replaced show all spot welds in original locations. NEW: Front brake assembly's-----upper ball joints----fuel tank-----rear brakes and hardware---tires. The car has the wrong interior installed but if you want to keep the 69 Torino buckets the extra cross member is in the car but will need to be welded in. I have the original Talladega window sills and rear panels and the DASH PAD is in good shape with no rips or splits, sorry I could not post a picture because I was only allowed 24 total. Car comes with interior window trim and new headliner, most exterior trim, extra glass, NOS grille seal and clean Talladega paperwork. Car has original 31 spline 3:25 9 inch Nodular center rear axle installed. All glass is good in the car, windshield is not perfect but no cracks or chips. The engine compartment is very clean and painted. NO MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION.

I have access to the original type C6 automatic transmission for the car with "R" servo and cast iron tail shaft with torque converter. It has been in storage since the 1980's and will only be available to the buyer of the car for an additional $1300.00. The transmission is not for sale any other way, it is not mine but I have made an agreement with the owner and will need advanced notice if you want it so I can go and pick it up.

This car needs bodywork everywhere, was stripped mostly to bare metal and has a very light coat of primer on it just for storage. Rolls fine and the Emergency brake is functional. NEEDS FULL RESTORATION. Sold AS IS where it is. I WILL NOT SHIP, payment is cash on pick up withing 7 days of end of auction. I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells locally for a much higher price than opening bid.

Note: The big block engine mounts are in the car. I have both outside sports mirrors. The oil cooler mounts are there, no oil cooler, lower bracket has been repaired. I have the correct front coil springs.

Ford names Lincoln chief as North American president following Nair's departure

Thu, Feb 22 2018

Ford announced yesterday that its North American president Raj Nair would no longer be working for the company due to "inappropriate behavior." As a result, the company needed fill that gaping vacancy. The new North American president and Ford Group vice president will be Kumar Galhotra, and his term in the new role will start on March 1. Galhotra will remain the group vice president and chief marketing officer for Lincoln through March, meaning he's the head of the luxury brand. He's had this position since 2014. Before that, he was vice president of engineering for all of Ford. With Galhotra's promotion, a number of internal promotions follow. Joy Falotico, current chairman, CEO and group vice president of Ford's credit division will fill Galhotra's position, and Dave McClelland, vice president of marketing for Ford Asia Pacific, will fill her role. Other shuffling at Ford includes Stewart Rawley's promotion to vice president for Ford North America and chief operating officer. He is the current vice president for strategy at Ford. Ford China's chairman and CEO John Lawler will take Rawley's old role, and Cathy O'Callaghan will take over Lawler's job at Ford China, but not until June 1. O'Callaghan is currently vice president, corporate controller and chief financial officer for global markets at Ford. Related Video:

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

In the 1950s and early 60s, the dawn of nuclear power was supposed to lead to a limitless consumer culture, a world of flying cars and autonomous kitchens all powered by clean energy. In Europe, it offered the then-limping continent a cheap, inexhaustible supply of power after years of rationing and infrastructure damage brought on by two World Wars.
The development of nuclear-powered submarines and ships during the 1940s and 50s led car designers to begin conceptualizing atomic vehicles. Fueled by a consistent reaction, these cars would theoretically produce no harmful byproducts and rarely need to refuel. Combining these vehicles with the new interstate system presented amazing potential for American mobility.
But the fantasy soon faded. There were just too many problems with the realities of nuclear power. For starters, the powerplant would be too small to attain a reaction unless the car contained weapons-grade atomic materials. Doing so would mean every fender-bender could result in a minor nuclear holocaust. Additionally, many of the designers assumed a lightweight shielding material or even forcefields would eventually be invented (they still haven't) to protect passengers from harmful radiation. Analyses of the atomic car concept at the time determined that a 50-ton lead barrier would be necessary to prevent exposure.

Cadillac Escalade gets $5,000 discount to ward off Lincoln Navigator

Wed, Nov 8 2017

General Motors apparently isn't going to let early good reception for the redesigned Lincoln Navigator steal thunder from its own luxury SUV without a fight. It's offering a $5,000 discount on the purchase or lease of the Cadillac Escalade this month to any buyer who trades in a 1999 or newer Lincoln model, Bloomberg reports. GM spokesman Jim Cain told Bloomberg the incentive is being offered to keep prices competitive for the Escalade. The 2018 Navigator starts at $72,055, compared to $73,995 for the Escalade, but the outgoing version of the Navigator is selling for an average of around $53,000, compared with more than $80,000 on average for the Escalade, he said. The Escalade was the top-selling domestic luxury SUV in October and No. 4 in the segment, according to Motor Intelligence. It far outsold the Navigator, which last saw a refresh in 2015 and a full redesign in 2007. But Ford is hoping to gain back some ground with the new Navigator and updated Expedition, which also trails the Chevrolet Tahoe and Chevy Suburban in its segment. Bloomberg notes that one Morgan Stanley analyst estimates that GM owns a $2 billion annual pretax profit edge in the lucrative luxury sport utility segment. Our recent First Drive review called the new Navigator "far superior to its primary competitor, the Cadillac Escalade."Related Video:
