When listing this car previously, I left out a fiberglass console that I had purchased from Dearborn several years ago, but have not yet installed. It is pictured here and will be included with the car. While I have owned several classic cars since my retirement, I upgrade and keep most of them. I do, however, have space limitations which require me to let go of one occasionally. This vehicle has always been stored inside and driven in the summer months to cruise-ins for a total of 3,375 miles in the 10 years I have owned it. Some minor body work and new paint will make this a nice show car. I have done my best to show and describe where body work is needed with the photos. Both rear wheel wells are showing rust where the stainless trim is mounted. The passenger door has bondo cracking where it had been repaired before I bought the car. The following is a list of new items and/or modifications which I have made in the past 10 years: New tail pipes and chrome tips New inside rear view mirror New gauges in dash New tachometor in dash New dome lamp body New wheel opening moldings New power steering valve, left and right outer tie rod ends, idler arm, front end alighment and new tires New door arm rests, both right and left New carpeting New color matched floor mats with Torino logo Installed new Edlebrock 4-barrell manifold and new Holley 600 cfm carburator New tail light lenses New hood lip molding New kick panels New parking light lenses New starter New windshileld wiper pump New power steering hoses Removed automatic transmission and installed Ford toploader 4-speed transmission New flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, throw-out bearing, Torino pedals, rods, z-brackets and clutch arm Installed new Hurst shifter and new drive shaft Replaced old rear end with 350 positive traction rear end Installed new brake shoes and hoses New coil New Malory Unilite distributor New Fuel Pump New radiator hose set New belts New Griffin aluminum radiator New front and reat Motorcraft gas shocks New Flowmaster mufflers New motor mounts |

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?
Sun, 28 Jul 2013Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.
