1972 Gran Torino Sport. 460cu in motor (from a 1973 Ford Thunderbird), originally 2v 351 Cleveland.
C-6 automatic.
Power steering.
A/C
Magnum 500 rim with new Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires w/less than 500 miles on them.
Tilt steering column as an extra part.
A/C compressor and drier as extra parts.
Power brake pedal, booster, and associated parts for conversion to power brakes included as extra parts.
Restored Rally instrument cluster with 2 bezels and harness included as extra parts.
This vehicle is in great shape, it does have some minor problems, such as some previous rust spots in the lower rear quarter panels near the wheel well, which are not actively rusting/the rust was treated and stopped, but repairs have yet to be made. Also the steering pump could stand to be replaced.
The interior has been redone with NOS material (the front seat), the back seat is original and is beginning to suffer on the top near the package tray, but extra material will go with the car for when and if that ever needs to be done. There is a crack in the dash pad.
The front bumper has been newly chromed, the rear bumper is in good shape but could stand to be re-chromed in the future.
The body is in good shape and has some minor chips here and there. The paint is holding up well, I believe this to be the second paint job, and is nearing time for a third, but polished up well and could easily last 10 more years if the car is kept in a garaged place, as it is now. The car does not get driven in bad weather, unless I am out driving and a sudden rain takes place. Never driven in snow or during the winter, as a matter of fact.
The car drives and tracks very well, it is really fun to cruise in. The engine is strong, lots of torque, burns no oil, the only problem I have experienced is I think the left side header needs a header gasket replaced.

Ford F-150 Tremor to pace NASCAR Truck Series this weekend
Wed, 14 Aug 2013Ford's bro-tastic F-150 Tremor will be pacing this weekend's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Michigan International Speedway. The Tremor fills a gap in the Ford F-Series lineup that we imagine the NASCAR set have clamored for - a hot-rod pickup truck.
Where the F-150 Raptor is designed to go quick on anything, the Tremor and its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are designed to tackle the road. The 365-horsepower and 420-pound-foot EcoBoost is unchanged from the rest of the F-150 line, but it combines the shortest drive ratio with the lightest two-door body, making it a bit of hot rod.
Ford will be offering hot laps with Michigan native Brad Keselowski behind the wheel of the Tremor for fans that arrive in the Irish Hills on August 14. The main showing for the new pickup will be the August 17 race, though, when it'll lead the field at the start of the race and through cautions.
Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.
