Project 1968 Torino Gt Formal Roof on 2040-cars
Cordova, Tennessee, United States
|
You are bidding on my 1968 Torino GT 2 door Hard Top project car. It started life as a small block automatic. Candy Apple Red factory color. I have upgraded the drivetrain to include a 390 8V with comp cam, lifters and timing gear, hardened pushrods, factory ford 8v dual quad intake, Holley 3310's, Hooker Headers, 14 bolt poor mans GT heads, Aluminum radiator, electric fan, Cobra air cleaner and valve covers, Aluminum racing flywheel, Hays HD Clutch, Tilton clutch cylinder, pull type hydraulic clutch, Flow Master 3" mufflers and pipes exiting in front of 9" ford with 4:11 posi gears, Transmission is a World Class T5 with an adapter plate to mate to a factory bell housing. I was planning on running a factory CJ top loader but the cost is a bit high and do not want to spend the money however the car is set up to do this just a new driveshaft if this is the way you want to go. I have replaced the entire front end suspension, still running drums all around but there are kits to upgrade to all discs and still use the factory GT 14"rims which look great as a sleeper/stock rim. All new Firestone Indy rubber including the spare, Body is solid with some repairs made to the floor pan, Leather power seats front and rear from an Audi which are very comfortable. All together this is a solid project car for the right person. Just ran out of budget and interest is flowing to other projects however if money was available discs, a top loader, and body completion was my direction. I have a clean title, a very low reserve however if the high bidder is close I will let it go if it does not meet the reserve. Best of luck and Happy Bidding. I can provide more pics upon request. |

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Wed, 12 Dec 20122012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
2013 North American Car of the Year:
Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring
Tue, 15 Jul 2014The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
