1969 Ford Torino Gt Convertible, All Original, 351 Windsor V8, Matching Numbers on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
|
Offered for your consideration is this 1969 FORD TORINO GT CONVERTIBLE. This original car is an all numbers matching vehicle with only 87,XXX original miles. The engine is the 351 5.8L Windsor V8 with factory 4 barrel carb. This motor runs great, doesn't smoke, and starts right up with the first turn of the key (even cold). The three speed factory automatic transmission is in great shape and shifts perfectly. As seen in my photo's the paint is original and the body does need some work with having some rust and a couple of light dents. The interior is all original and in very nice shape having absolutely NO holes or rips. The dash is nice and all gauges work as they should and the hood mounted blinker indicators work too. The floor boards and trunks are completely solid and in original condition. The under carriage and frame are solid (scale is a little flaky). Does need a new soft top but the frame is in good shape.
The Torino had only 2 owners and was bought new here in Saint Louis at a Ford dealer in 1969 then traded in and resold in 1970 here in Saint Louis out of Barton Pontiac (the car has that dealer sticker still) and that owner has had it all that time (see pic's for title). This car is a joy to drive in it's current condition and mechanically sound. She really only need attention to her body to be perfect again!!! CALL JASON 314-771-8811 |

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?
Wed, 11 Dec 2013The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Exceptionally rare '65 Ford GT40 Roadster prototype up for auction
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Think of mid-engined supercars and your mind is bound to gravitate towards Europe, but the United States has been known to make a handful from time to time - exceptional vehicles from the likes of Vector, SSC, Mosler, Hennessey, and Saleen. But long before any of those came around, Ford famously became obsessed with beating Ferrari at its own game, leading to the development of the iconic GT40.
The story is well known, sending Ford to the checkered flag at Le Mans four times in a row in the late 1960s. Ford and Shelby also built over 100 for public consumption, but just four of them were roadsters. Of those only one remains in original condition, and now that exceedingly rare example going up for auction.
Consigned to RM Auctions for its mid-August sale during Pebble Beach weekend in Monterey, California, this 1965 model is the first GT40 Roadster built. It was used as a development and demonstration vehicle for Ford and Shelby. Carroll Shelby himself drove Henry Ford II in this very car during one of many test and demo events, this time held for Ford's board of directors in Los Angeles.
