Very nice 1970 Torino Cobra 429 Cobra Jet Fastback. This car is the J code ram air 429CJ. It has the dooe-r heads
and correct manifolds. The body is very nice with the best ford color ever of Calypso Coral. Car was painted 12-15
years ago but looks good. Most people are shocked when I tell them that. I think this car would place at most local
shows but not a trailer queen. There are small patches on the inside 1/4 drop-offs. It looks like it was in a
accident at one time as the passenger side drop off in the trunk is wrinkled but they must have put a whole 1/4 on
as there is no evidence of the 1/4 being cut. Inside is very nice. Chrome is very nice all the way around. Grill is
as close to perfect as could get. All gauges and lights work, even the seat belt light and the dome light when you
open the doors. Has the ribbon tach which also works. Dash is original with some minor blistering under the vinyl
but no cracks. This torino is fitted with a 3.50 traction-lok rear axle, stagger shocks, and 4 speed close ratio
transmission. This 70 cobra was originally a bench seat car but now has correct comfort weave torino bucket seats.
This CJ is now fitted with SCJ oil cooler, rim blow steering wheel, and rear window louvers. Over all this is a
very nice Torino with lots of options. Car runs and drives great. Would not be afraid to drive anywhere. This real
j code 429 CJ is priced well below other Cobras with 429's and shaker hoods. Would consider a cheaper 70-71 torino
as partial trade.

2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]
Mon, 29 Oct 2012It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.
2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
