This is a very rare car, most of four speed Torino cars have been wrecked, parted down during a time people thought they were not that valuable, or just rusted out. Same green color as the movie car, 'Grand Torino'. It is one of only 2091 four speed cars offered in 1972. Ford only put four speeds behind the 351 Cleveland  CJ, (known as the 351CJ engine), four barrel, that's the 'Cobra Jet' engine. It is said that there may only be as little as three hundred of the four speed cars left. It has been stored inside, restoration has been started, all body work done, clutch, brake and suspension work done. No rust at all, clean trunk, this is an easy restoration, speedo shows just under 45K, it may not have turned over-can't really tell, all parts there, steering wheel is aftermarket, missing the top of the stock air cleaner lid and has an aftermarket radio-all real easy things to find. All chrome is good, all moldings are there and good-may need a little freshening up. The interior is all there and stock, seats needs to be recovered and headliner replaced, the rest may be restorable, has the cracked dash as all of these car have. I have a 'MARTI REPORT' that I can email or fax out to you. The car is not going to be sold for a low price, it will only sell for top dollar because it is very rare.  It hurts me to have to sell it, I was starting a 'Year 72 Collection',  all I can say is: try to find another one of these CJ fours speed cars, all stock and this original. I am selling off all my street rod projects that I have left due to health issues, got a 88,000 org mile, one owner 72 Ranchero, 351C auto, AND a 44,000 mile 64 Ford F100-short wide box, 302-C4. I can email more pictures-call me, Seller has the right to stop the auction early as it is also advertised locally, feel free to call me, Bob at 530-528-1000 and leave message or call my cell at 530-209-2897


On May-28-13 at 10:09:59 PDT, seller added the following information:

I just got the MARTI REPORT on this car, there were only 306 Torinos sold in 1972 with four speeds and only the CJ 351 cleveland engine could have the four speed tranny. Also there was only 173 sold with this paint and trim code, I can fax the Marti Report, call me at the 530-528-1000 leave message on where to fax it.


On May-29-13 at 16:35:02 PDT, seller added the following information:

I cannot get the Marti Report to load, email me with your email address and I will send it to you,

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.

Ford Shelby GT350R sets 7:32.19 Nurburgring lap time

Mon, Jan 26 2015

It was over a year ago that the Chevy Camaro Z/28 clocked a Nurburgring lap time of 7 minutes and 37.47 seconds, propelling itself up the leader boards as the fastest American muscle car to lap the infamous Nordschleife. But now word has it that another piece of Detroit iron has clocked an even faster time. According to Evo, the new Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang has lapped the Green Hell in a blitzkrieg 7:32.19. That's more than five seconds faster than the Z/28, and propels the GT350R into proper supercar territory: incrementally quicker than the Ferrari 458 Italia and in league with lap times posted by the Nissan GT-R (though not the fastest Godzilla has clocked over the years). With output quoted at "more than 500 horsepower and more than 400 lb-ft of torque," and no 0-60, quarter-mile or top end figures revealed to date, this marks the first genuine measure of performance we've seen for the track-focused pony car - though the numbers have yet to be officially confirmed. The GT350R packs a 5.2-liter V8 unburdened by 130 pounds of excess weight – helped along by carbon-fiber wheels coated in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber. Related Video:
