5 day auction...no reserve...top bidder wins

Owner wants this roller sold regardless of price. This is a beautiful 1970 Torino 429 Cobra with great original factory options like
- 4 speed close ratio transmission
- Calypso Coral color
- louver car (not with car)
- and much more
Car is a beautiful example of Ford muscle. Lots of history to these Torino's as they are getting scarce.

IMPROVED in many ways the owner is including in this auction a genuine 429CJ D0ve-a block, pulled from another Torinio. In great shape all the way around. Will have its caps and freeze plugs... SEE VIDEO

Engine is the Cobrajet D0ve-A model

The car itself came to us stripped and the owner pretty much completed all the body work. For the most part there isnt any body work needed on this car, just some cosmetic touches on the interior. Floors were redone, as well as body panels. Frame rails are all good. Original CALYPSO CORAL paint with one repaint. Has all glass and windows. Original interior with console. Even has some original Torino 1970? FIRESTONE whitewall tires and painted rims which we kept on for authenticity. Needless to say tires will need replacing. Car comes with rare under dash Frigette air conditioning unit. Comes with a separate SHAKER breather to go in SHAKER hood

The car is very desirable and is an easy car to take to the next level. Since it does need some finishing touches but everything is there to take to the next level we are offering this at NO RESERVE so the HIGH BIDDER will win. .

We do have the 429 CJ emblems and stickers we will place on the car before it gets to the next owner. This is origianlly a louver car. We dont have the louvers but the brackets holes are still intact. It will come with all window trim & extra trim pieces.

These Torino's are collectors items. Here is your chance to get a solid roller AND a couple bonus items including a genuine 429 CJ block with caps and freeze plugs from a running vehicle. 5 DAY AUCTION...so get your bids in early.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid

Thu, 02 May 2013

No Prius Killer
As much as we enthusiasts like to rail on the lowly Toyota Prius as the harbinger of death for all we hold dear, there's no denying the machine's absolute and interminable grip on the hybrid hatchback market in the United States. Toyota has so thoroughly sunk its teeth into the segment that you can clearly hear the automaker's incisors clacking against one another with the conclusion of each financial quarter. And there's little wonder why. Buyers can plop down less than $25,000 and have a runabout that can return up to an estimated 51 miles per gallon in the city, leaving every other entry on the market with precious little gristle to gnaw on.
Enter the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid. With its claimed 47 mpg combined, the funky little hatch from Europe already falls behind the 48 mpg city offered by the Prius, but that marginal sacrifice in fuel economy could be a small price to pay for buyers who want a credible alternative to the stalwart Toyota. Unfortunately, like the Fusion Hybrid, the C-Max Hybrid had trouble even approaching its Environmental Protection Agency estimates during our time with the car.

Chip Foose tastefully enhances his personal Ford GT

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Typically, we'd expect a vehicle from 2006 to fall well short of a more modern vehicle, both in terms of performance and style. Of course, the Ford GT is not your average offering from the Bush era. That's doubly true when the 2006 GT in question belongs to one Chip Foose.
Purchased by his wife as a 50th birthday present, Foose is showing his custom, personalized GT at the 2014 SEMA Show. The 5.4-liter supercharged V8 breathes a bit easier thanks to a full Magnaflow Performance exhaust, but Foose's GT isn't all about the performance.
Instead, the car customizer extraordinaire has focused on tasteful aesthetic enhancement, tweaking the rear end by removing the bumper and trimming the frame extensions. The wheels, meanwhile, are one-off aluminum alloys, designed by Foose himself. Like the stripes, the wheels feature orange accenting.
