A beautiful 1971 Ford Torino 500 2dr. with less than 15,000 actual miles and personally autographed by Jack Roush. This trophy winning Ford is a garage kept, rust free, turn key, ready to show and go looker with plenty of documentation including original window sticker, mileage statement, and original purchase order from The Moberly Motor Company in Missouri. This original wimbledon white ford comes with a fully detailed 302 V8, automatic, dual exhaust, factory 15" Magnum 500 Rally wheels and BF Goodrich white letters, perfect trim and chrome, an immaculent trunk area and original spare and jack, and detailed undercarriage. Blue vinyl top is original and like new. Blue interiot is all original and like new. Runs, drives and sounds great!
Note: This is "not" a wreck or rebuild! This car was bought new by a lady in 1971. It was left to her niece when she passed away at 91 years of age. Her niece kept the car in her heated and insulated garage until I purchased it. The niece verified that her "Aunt Flossie" drove this car 1/2 mile to town and 1/2 mile home everyday for 30 years. I did have it repainted the original wimbledon white in a base coat, clear coat to give it a nice deep shine. There are no dings, dents, and very, very little visible wear to the naked eye. Jack Roush personally autographed the dash for me and a framed picture comes with it. You'll also recieve with this car a personally autographed by Brian Keselowski Torino replica diecast, and a gold-chrome Talledega Torino #43 diecast, personally autographed by "The King" Richard Petty with picture of them signing. There is a small lien on this car that we will satisfy before taking possession.
Included with this car, you will receive an actual one-of-a-kind, impossible to find Martinsville Grandfather Clock Trophy won by Morgan Shepherd at Martinsville Speedway in 1979. This was given to me as a gift by Morgan Shepherd personally. With his blessing, I'm including it with this package. This is a highly coveted trophy by NASCAR drivers that stands 78" tall and 16 1/2" wide with a race winner plate and personally autographed by Morgan Shepherd. The Martinsville race has given Ridgeway grandfather clocks as trophies since 1964 and this one is an actual Gravely Furniture Company made clock. Today's clocks are made in Michigan by The Howard Miller Company. You cannot find or buy these anywhere. You can own a piece of NASCAR history that is a must have for the serious collector and can actually be more valuable than the Torino. This clock is in cherry wood finish and perfect operating condition. Morgan won this trophy clock in the Late Model Sportsman Series(now known as the Nationwide Series) the year before he won the 1980 championship.
You will also recieve a custom built Golf-Cart with graphic design of Brian Keselowski's #52 Wreaths Across America 2013 Daytona 500 race car with your company name included and personally autographed by Brian Keselowski.
Also included in this package is a season long honorary TruckerFan.com team associate sponsorship including two(2) guest passes to all Camping World Truck Series events on the 2013 schedule and any race event that rian Keselowski may be entered into the Sprint Cup Series. These passes can be offered to family, friends, employees, co-workers, company management, or clients. Your name or company name or even that special tribute will be on the race car as an associate sponsor and included on our Truckerfan.com team website throughout the year as a sponsor for additional advertisement. In the pit-area, you'll hang out with our sponsored team, meet other teams and drivers up close for pictures, autographs, and a memorable experience that lasts a lifetime and all for a great cause!
There is a reserve on this package. Our hopes is to raise enough funding to continue the Wreaths Across America awareness through our race teams and our fundriasing efforts. To feel more comfortable before you bid, you may contact our company our company at www.truckerfan.com for more information, details and additional photos. Shipping of your winning bid can also be arranged.

Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.
Ford settles class action suit over defective Navistar diesel engines
Fri, 25 Oct 2013The 2003 Ford F-Series Super Duty (shown above) introduced the 6.0-liter Power Stroke diesel supplied by Navistar, and while that is an engine Ford would love to forget, it's now one step closer to putting that particular problem behind it. Automotive News is reporting that Ford has settled a class-action lawsuit brought on by problems with this engine that started right out of the gate and ultimately broke up the 30-year relationship between Ford and Navistar.
Owners and lessees of 2003-2007 Super Duty trucks and E-Series vans equipped with the 6.0-liter Power Stroke are eligible for deductible reimbursements of between $50 and $200 from the original five-year/100,000-mile engine warranty, while Ford is paying out as much as $825 for out-of-warranty engine repairs. These repairs may include the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, EGR valve, oil cooler, fuel injectors and turbocharger, but are only covered if the components failed before six years or 135,000 miles.
In total, Ford has agreed to pay about 50 percent of the value of the repairs and deductibles paid by its customers who submit a claim before the end of this year, and $150,000 is going to the 16 named plaintiffs in the case; Navistar was not included in the lawsuit.
Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost sales robust in early going
Tue, 13 May 2014Okay, okay, okay, so I was just a smidge wrong. Those that read my review of the Ford Fiesta with the new 1.0-liter, EcoBoost engine will know that while I really enjoyed the torquey little three-cylinder, I was concerned that Ford's decision to force 1.0-liter owners into a manual transmission, steel wheels and one trim level might hurt sales of the new engine. I was also concerned that the promised 45-mile-per-gallon highway rating wouldn't be enough to tempt buyers into trying an engine that's so far outside of what the general public is use to. My concerns, though, seem to have been for naught.
While not doing a booming business on the triple-equipped Fiesta, Ford is seeing a take rate of four to eight percent per month in the engine's first few months on sale. Now, four to eight percent might not sound like a lot - if, like last year, the Fiesta sells around 71,000 units, there'd be barely 5,600 1.0-liter models on the road. It is also small potatoes relative to the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped vehicles across the Ford range, which US sales analyst Erich Merkle estimates to be roughly 35 to 40 percent of retail sales. Still, according to The Detroit News, the 1.0-liter is getting adopted at roughly the same rate as the sparkling Fiesta ST, which should be a solid indication of just how well this little engine is doing.
The 1.0-liter's success "really speaks volumes, not just to what we're doing with the Fiesta, but with EcoBoost in general," Merkle told Autoblog.
