Reynolds, Georgia, United States
Engine:351 Cleveland
Drive Type: Automatic
Make: Ford
Mileage: 89,742
Model: Torino
Trim: Gran Torino
All original 1973 Ford Gran Torino survivor. This car is a one family owned Georgia car. She spent most of her life in Conyers, Ga. She left the state twice, once on a week long trip to Florida and once to Louisiana for a funeral. I have the original bill of sale and title on the car. This car has never been Hot Rodded. The body is very solid, there are two very minor rust spots on the driver side rear quarter panel. One in front of the tire and one just behind the tire. (see pictures) Floor pans and trunk floor are solid. (there is on small area in the trunk with very minor rust I have pictured)
Car was kept in a carport all her life. The paint, vinyl, interior, engine and drivetrain are all original. The 351 Cleveland engine runs and the car drives and shifts out very nice. I changed the rear brake lines on the car since I purchased it because the rubber line was collapsed after 40 years.
I haven't painted the car because it is the original paint and I wanted the new owner to be able to see exactly what they were getting. She is a true survivor with only 89742 miles.
The interior is very nice. The driver seat has two tears in it at the seams. (an upholstery shop may be able to repair this) The dash is in great shape as well as are the door panels. The vinyl top is in pretty good shape for 40yrs. The strip below the back glass seems to have shrunk and pulled away from the molding some, and there is one small area at the bottom right corner of the back glass. I have pictures of both.
It comes with 5 original hub caps. There are two pictured in the trunk but I have all 5.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses
Wed, 25 Jul 2012
Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
