1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport
400 Cubic Inch 6.6L engine. 

Almost everything on this car is new as of the past year and a half (over 32K invested), and I have paperwork/documentation for everything. This car needs nothing. It's not a show car, but a very nice, and reliable driver. Perfect for long road trips or getting groceries. Just repainted in the original color (Medium Yellow).

Original 400 motor (Rebuilt) Converted from 2 to 4-barrel. New carburetor, intake, cam, timing chain kit, and pushrods (All Edelbrock) New radiator, starter, and alternator. Disk brakes in front/Drums in the rear. (New Master cylinder, and brake calipers) Almost everything under the hood has been restored/replaced. Too much to list off the top of my head, but I'm happy to answer any questions.

(I still have the original intake and 2 barrel carb if you wanted to revert back to it's original set up.) 

C6 Three speed automatic transmission. (Rebuilt last year) Shifts perfectly. 

Working heat and AC. (Converted from R12 to R134A) Power windows (New window motors). New rear air shocks, and tires. Ride is incredibly smooth especially for a muscle car. 

Interior is almost perfect. Seats have been reupholstered/re-stuffed to match original. Headliner is new. Shoulder strap seatbelts have been installed. All gages and lights work. Great sound system installed under dash so the original radio is still in place. Has a smart phone connection so you can listen to mp3's/GPS etc. Carpet is original. Looks decent, but is torn underneath the driver side floor mat. 

Body is rust free with the exception of some bubbling under the vinyl roof. Which is common with vinyl tops, but the roof is solid. Exhaust was converted from single to duel by the previous owner. Sounds incredible, but pipes have some rust. 

This is the same model car from the Clint Eastwood movie "Gran Torino", and its value has been increasing steadily since the movie came out. This actual car is also in a movie that is scheduled to release this year called "79 Parts". Check it out on IMDB. 


Thanks,
John

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014

Mon, Dec 22 2014

With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost

Fri, 16 May 2014

Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
Riding Notes

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.
