1970 Ford Torino GT Factory 351 Cleveland 4V. 3 speed FMX automatic transmission, 9" 3.00:1 rear. Factory A/C.
The Torino was purchased new by my grandparents in 1970 and has been in the family since new. It starts, runs and drives and is a good restoration project car. I always intended to restore it but never found the time so its time to let it go to someone who can take the time to restore it. The engine and transmission are original and have never been out of the car or had any major work done. The engine does blow some smoke at startup as the valve seals have deteriorated. It still has 165-175 psi compression in every cylinder and is otherwise mechanically fine. The carburetor, air cleaner and distributor have been replaced, but the original factory parts are in the trunk. It currently has a 600cfm Edelbrock performer carburetor and a Mallory electronic distributor. The belt has been removed from the factory A/C because some of the idler pulleys have seized and need to be replaced. The transmission works perfectly and shifts firmly but it has an external leak somewhere. It recently had the fluid and filter changed and a new pan gasket put on but it still leaks a little even when sitting. I suspect it may be the selector shaft seal or the tail shaft seal. The body and interior are complete with the exception of the missing ashtray in the center console. The exterior paint color is not the original color. It was originally green with a laser stripe, but my Aunt had it painted blue sometime in the late 1970s. The white interior is original and in fair shape. The body is in fair shape considering its age but it needs new rear quarter panels and the passenger side front floor pan is rusted. There are some other rust issues noted in the pictures and quite a few little parking lot dents. It currently has the original 4 wheel manual drum brakes. I have complete V8 Granada spindles from the junkyard to convert it to front disc brakes but I never had the time to put them on. All of the V8 Granada brake parts are included in the trunk with the car and can been seen in the pictures.

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?
Thu, 18 Jul 2013A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible to recreate Empire State Building stunt
Tue, 25 Mar 2014It would have been all too easy to miss the auto show debut of the 2015 Ford Mustang convertible. It was, after all, unveiled alongside its fixed-roof counterpart at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, lumping coupe and cabrio into one debut. But Ford is evidently still intent on making its new droptop stand out. The top of the Empire State Building ought to do the trick.
Automotive history buffs may recall that, 50 years ago, Ford unveiled its first Mustang convertible atop what was then the tallest building in the world, that Art Deco icon of the New York skyline. Half a century later, Ford is recreating the feat and bringing the new topless Mustang to the same observation deck on the building's 86th floor.
Getting it up there, of course, will be no easy task. While they'd usually airlift the vehicle onto the roof or lift it by crane, the spire protruding from atop the building makes approaching the narrow observation deck too dangerous, and no mobile crane can telescope the thousand-plus feet it would take to get the pony car up there.
Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron
Thu, Feb 23 2017Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.
