Up for your consideration of ownership is about the cleanest
1972 Ford Torino 4 door. Yes it’s a 4
door but it sure is sweet! This car is
super solid and only has 51,400 miles. Perfect for an entry level collector car
or a great daily driver for that collector who cannot get enough and who
doesn’t want to drive their 2 door, convertible or collectable daily. This is my fathers car and we are selling it
because his 55 Thunderbird has taken up the garage spot. Storage has been lost to the little
bird. New parts on the 72 less than 1100 miles ago. $2100 invested into my dad’s car to make it a
good diver…..Little did I know he would rather drive a t-bird convertible!
HAHA. Brake shoes Brake Pads Fresh valve job Valves Seats Retainers Guides New 2V carburetor Fresh plugs Tune up All of these new parts were put on last year and then the
car was parked. To be a good daily
driver or ready for shows you will need to put new tires on the car. They have plenty of tread but they are
dry. I drive the car around the
neighborhood but wouldn’t go any further than that due to their dryness. Also when you purchase you do need to
trailer the car. Tires are dry and fuel
is old. I would drain the tank and have
fresh fuel added. Sometimes the car
starts to miss due to bad fuel we believe.
It had almost a full tank of fuel that is over a year old. I try to run the car and drive it around as
much as I can when I get time. I just
simply do not have the time to change the fuel out or spend any time working on
the car. I have 3 restoration projects
currently. Please look closely at these pictures. The paint on this car is SUPER NICE! It appears some parts have been repainted but
they did a great job! The front seat has
had some rips so there is tape on the seat.
Again, I would love to recover the seat but im just too busy. The headliner is super nice, door pannles
like new! Doors open and close like
new. Windows work. Heat is hot!
Wipers wipe perfectly! Lights
work, indicators, etc! The pictures are very high resolution so look at how
nice everything is. NO RUST though the
floors, trunk or frame. This looks like
a southern car. But you will have that
when garage kept like this one! I can deliver this car for you as I have a diesel truck and
a trailer. It would be fairly expensive
though. New tires, new fuel – you have one kick butt car for a super
great price! Click to find over 70 Pictures of the Torino. SUPER HIGH RESOLUTION! CLICK HERE for Pictures |

Ford made three big mistakes in calculating MPG for 2013 C-Max Hybrid
Tue, Jun 17 2014It's been a rough time for the official fuel economy figures for the Ford C-Max Hybrid. When the car was released in 2012, Ford made a huge deal about how it would beat the Toyota Prius V, which was rated at 42 combined miles per gallon, 44 city and 40 highway. The Ford? 47 mpg across the board. How did Ford come to this place, where its Prius-beater turned into an also-ran? Well, after hearing customer complaints and issuing a software update in mid-2013, then discovering a real problem with the numbers last fall and then making a big announcement last week that the fuel economy ratings of six different 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles would need to be lowered, the C-Max Hybrid has ended up at 40 combined, 42 city and 37 highway. In other words, the Prius trumps it, as daily drivers of those two vehicles have known for a long time. The changes will not only affect the window sticker, but also the effect that the C-Max Hybrid (and the five other Ford vehicles that had their fuel economy figures lowered last week) have on Ford's compliance with greenhouse gas and CAFE rules for model year 2013 and 2014. How did Ford come to this place, where its Prius-beater turned into an also-ran? There are two technical answers to that question, which we've got below, as well as some context for how Ford's mistakes will play out in the bigger world of green vehicles. Let's start with Ford's second error, which is easy to do since we documented it in detail last year (the first, needing to do a software update, was also covered). The basic gist is that Ford used the general label rule (completely legally) to test the Fusion Hybrid and use those numbers to figure out how efficient the C-Max Hybrid is. That turned out to be a mistake, since the two vehicles are different enough that their numbers were not comparable, despite having the same engine, transmission and test weight, as the rules require. You can read more details here. Ford's Said Deep admitted that the TRLHP issue is completely separate from the general label error from last year. Now let's move on to last week's announcement. What's interesting is that the new recalculation of the MPG numbers – downward, of course – was caused by a completely separate issue, something called the Total Road Load Horsepower (TRLHP). Ford's Said Deep admitted to AutoblogGreen that the TRLHP issue had nothing to do with the general label error from last year.
Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
