 Up for auction and your viewing pleasure today is Rare & Original 1971 Torino Cobra. This is good looking 'Survivor-Quality' car. The single repaint in the Light Pewter Metallic has a good look and a nice shine with all the 'Patina' you would expect of a 30+ year old repaint. If you want perfect paint, this is not it. If you want a Muscle Car with some survivor street cred, this is it.

This is a very solid Cobra. The floors, frame rails, torque boxes, trunk drop offs, trunk floor, cowl, etc. all look great. The cowl is in excellent condition and does not leak. The trunk stays completely dry as well. Structurally this Cobra is one of the most solid examples available. There is some minor rust in the door corners and at the lower rear wheel wells. All very typical and they look to be confined to small areas. Please see the photos.

Inside the interior presents well. The factory Medium Vermillion is a rare color that really works with the Light Pewter Metallic exterior. The highly desirable bucket seats are in good condition, still comfortable enough for a cruise or whatever. The carpet was replaced some time ago with a black custom kit. There is the normal wear like a crack in the dash and stitching separations in the headliner. The factory in-dash tachometer is a rare option that still works properly.

I just had a new windshield installed. They are rather expensive compared to a Mustang, this one cost $600 to have replaced.

The 351 Cleveland appears to be the original, however there are no VIN stampings I could find on the block in any of the normal areas. The engine runs excellent with nice, quiet valve train. A slight piston noise can sometimes when the engine is cold but it goes away when the engine begins to warm. All of the factory accessories like the shaker with hold down bracket, exhaust manifolds, heat shield, S-tube, dripper valve covers, 4V heads, cast iron intake are there. The only obvious non-factory component is the Edelbrock 4 Barrel carb. The car has excellent power and the engine has excellent manners on the road or in traffic. The C6 automatic has been rebuilt with a shift kit. The shifts are very crisp and it will bark the tires on the 1-2 shift and the 2-3 shift.

The Magnum 500 wheels appear to be the originals. There is the typical pitting and scale, but they look good for 43 year old originals. Larger BF Goodrich Radial tires have been installed with 15" 235 60's in the front and 15" 255 60's in the rear. The larger tires really fill up the wheel wells and give this Muscle Car a more aggressive look.

The factory power disc brakes and power steering work excellent making this a very easy car to drive for drivers of any level.

Full Marti-Report Documentation is pictured and is included with the car.

I am available for questions for 9am to 8pm PACIFIC TIME for questions or to discuss. This car is available locally so I reserve to end the auction at any time.

Thanks, Mike. 425-308-0802

Forza Horizon 3 car list keeps on truckin'

Tue, Aug 9 2016

We've covered three weeks of car reveals for Forza Horizon 3, and this time we get a better look at the trucks, SUVs and other off-roaders you'll be able to use to explore Australia. This week's list kicks things off with two of the most legendary off-roaders in the world, the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser and the Meyers Manx. They have different purposes; the FJ40 is for tough trail work and the Manx is for some light-hearted beach fun. But no one could deny the cultural importance of either. And both should be a blast in Horizon 3. In addition to this pair of classics, players will have a chance to get behind the wheel of both a race version of the Ford F-150 Raptor and its closest rival, the Ram Runner. And when traditional vehicles start to get boring, why not take out a full-blown Baja racer such as the Penhall Cholla or the Rockstar energy drink version of the little Polaris RZR XP 1000 side-by-side? Forza Horizon 3 is shaping up to have one of the most diverse car lists in a racing game in a long time. There are still cars left to be revealed, so stay tuned for further installments and see this week's full list below. 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth 2013 Ford Focus ST 1973 Ford Escort RS1600 1971 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase III 2014 Ford Fiesta ST 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Race Truck 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 1986 Lancia Delta S4 2009 Lexus IS F 1957 Maserati 300 S 1994 Mazda MX-5 Miata 1967 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series 1971 Meyers Manx 2012 Mini John Cooper Works GP 1998 Nissan R390 1979 Opel Kadett C GT/E 2011 Penhall The Cholla 1971 Plymouth Cuda 426 Hemi 2015 Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS Rockstar Edition 2013 Ram Runner 1993 Renault Clio Williams 1990 Subaru SVX 1979 Toyota FJ40 2005 TVR Sagaris 1990 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton Related Video: News Source: Playground Games / MicrosoftImage Credit: Playground Games / Microsoft Auto News Toys/Games Ford RAM Toyota forza exclusive ford f-150 raptor forza horizon forza horizon 3 toyota fj40 meyers manx

2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.
