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.

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!

Detroit 3 and UAW set for showdown over tiered wages

Mon, Mar 23 2015

This week, thousands of United Auto Workers will converge on Cobo Center in Detroit for the Special Convention on Collective Bargaining, an every-four-year event that lets members tell UAW leaders what the negotiating priorities should be during contract negotiations. This is where a lot of sand and a lot of lines start coming together in preparation for contract negotiations between the UAW and the Detroit 3 automakers, which will happen later this year. Number one on the UAW agenda is the end of the two-tier wage system created in 2007 to help the automakers get through bankruptcy; veteran workers are paid the Tier 1 rate of around $29.00 per hour, new hires are paid the Tier 2 rate of between $15 and $20 and get about half the benefits of Tier 1. Tier 2 hiring has been an undoubted success for the automakers, allowing them to keep factories in the US and hire more workers. By agreement, it is capped at a certain percentage of each automaker's workforce, and while the union's ultimate position is to get rid of the dual-scale system entirely; one leader said Ford could easily afford the $335 million it would take to convert all its workers to Tier 1 out of its $6.9 billion in 2014 North American profit, and General Motors could do the same out of the $5 billion it is handing to investors through the (admittedly forced) share buyback. Other delegates say that at the very least they'd be happy with enforcement of the current caps in the new contract. The automakers, conversely, would welcome expansion of the Tier 2 ranks. Including benefits, import automakers pay workers "in the high $40 range" per hour, according to an analyst, while Ford and GM pay about $59 in wages and benefits per hour. More Tier 2 workers on the rolls would let those two companies get labor cost parity with the competition. Fiat-Chrysler pays wages closer to the imports because of special exceptions in its UAW contract that allow unlimited Tier 2 hiring; those exceptions will end on September 14 and bring FCA into line with the other domestics, unless the new contract maintains them. FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne is opposed to the two-tier system, having called it "almost offensive." One analyst says the UAW might win a sizable pay raise for Tier 2 and a small increase for Tier 1, but the keystone issue will be how the hiring matrix can help the automakers keep overall wages in line with the imports.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.

UAW warns automakers: Restarting U.S. plants is 'too soon and too risky'

Fri, Apr 24 2020

WASHINGTON/WARREN, Mich. — The head of the United Auto Workers union on Thursday said it was "too soon and too risky" to reopen auto plants and Michigan's economy in early May, citing insufficient scientific data and coronavirus testing to assure workplaces are safe. The warning from UAW President Rory Gamble on Thursday afternoon came as General Motors Co , Ford Motor Co and Toyota Motor Corp took new steps toward reopening North American vehicle manufacturing operations in an environment where consumer demand is uncertain and worker safety paramount. The union has said that 24 of its members have died from Covid-19, though it was unclear whether they might have become infected in the workplace. Unionized Detroit automakers and non-union German and Asian automakers have been preparing to restart U.S. vehicle making operations by early May. Companies have shifted reopening dates amid uncertainty about government stay-at-home orders. Gamble's statement appeared to derail plans by the Detroit Three to start bringing UAW workers back to vehicle manufacturing jobs on May 4. The longer the automakers cannot produce profitable U.S.-made trucks and sport utility vehicles, the longer they burn cash. The UAW leader's statement was also aimed at Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who has come under pressure from conservative groups and President Donald Trump to ease coronavirus stay-at-home restrictions. "At this point in time, the UAW does not believe the scientific data is conclusive that it is safe to have our members back in the workplace. We have not done enough testing to really understand the threat our members face," Gamble said. "We strongly suggest to our companies in all sectors that an early May date is too soon and too risky to our members, their families and their communities." Gamble said the union was "happy with the auto companiesÂ’ response and cooperation on working through the health and safety protocols we will need in the workplace when it is appropriate to restart." Earlier Thursday, GM began notifying front line managers to come back to work next week to get trained on new safety protocols designed to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus as workers return to plants.
