1968 Ford Torino Gt Fastback Stock And Sweet!! Pristine! Original, Very Nice** on 2040-cars
Garden City, Idaho, United States
Here you have an incredible and original classic 1968 Ford Torino GT Fastback. This car has been freshened up with new base/clearcoat paint in the original Gulfstream Aqua Color that looks fantastic! Great color and trim combination. It retains the original interior in GREAT SHAPE and original carpet in fabulous condition. The rear hat shelf in the rear window has been refurbished and new tires installed. The car has new upper and lower ball joints, new radius/control arm bushings, tie rod ends, upper and lower control arm bushings, new lower control arms, and new sway bar bushings and retainers. Drives and tracks incredibly well. The 302 V8 runs and powers the car very well and feels every bit as spunky as a 351 that I drove. The A/C is Factory but is not hooked up. This car is in the dry Northwest and as the pictures show, the bottom of the car is nice and dry showing the factory red oxide primer still. No undercoating covering the bottom of the car. The car was purchased from the son of the gentleman that put on all but a few of the miles on the car before he passed. Original documentation as shown in the pictures of owner's manual, warranty info, selling dealer info, and registration/title application. I took and posted a lot of pictures to show how nice this car is and to hopefully answer most of your questions. If you have questions, just send them through and I will do my best to answer them. The car still has the original AM Radio in the dash (not sure about the dash speaker). The dash has no cracks or heaves. Gauges and instruments read fine. Lights all work fine. Wipers work well. The trunk is rust free and has not only the new liner but also retains the felt liner that was in the car. Has a new fuel tank, new heater core, heater hoses, cooling hoses, and new spare tire hold down. New plugs, new plug wires. New fuel filter. Has four wheel drum brakes that are power booster assisted. Could use new door felts and all the glass is nice in this car. This is a nice honest, clean and stock Torino Fastback GT that has not been hot rodded or modified. A true Classic to enjoy and drive and would do very good at show and shines or local car shows. Not too many like this left !! Not the usual Ebay car. Priced fairly for what it is. Try to find one like it?! Don't miss out on this one! Thanks for looking. |

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:
Ford offering factory-spec EcoBoost reflashes that don't void warranty*
Sat, Dec 27 2014Buy a supercharger or cold-air kit from Ford Racing and a Performance Calibration handset comes with it to reset the ECU for the upgrade. Now Ford Racing is offering the ProCal handset a la carte for $595, allowing you to reflash the ECU on your EcoBoost-equipped ride to extract more of its inherent capabilities without any additional upgrades. It gives you control of variables such as throttle response, idle speed and turbo wastegate control, among others. As for that warranty asterisk, the press release says enthusiasts can up the power "while maintaining the Ford-backed limited warranty." However Ford Motor Co. and Ford Racing are separate entities, and, best we can tell, when you reflash the ECU, your Ford warranty gets supplanted by the Ford Racing warranty. Say you bought a 2014 Ford, that means your five-year, 60,000-mile warranty becomes Ford Racing's three-year, 36,000-mile warranty, if we're reading the fine print correctly. If you have an older car and have driven more than 36,000 miles, then your warranty options are kaput, at least as far as a Ford in-house option. If have warranty concerns, you might also want to consider having a dealer perform the reflash, or at least ask about it. Once you've got past the small print, what about the numbers? At the moment Ford Racing offers tunes for the 2.0-liter EcoBoost in the Focus ST and the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the Fiesta ST, and we're told there's a 90-pound-foot boost in torque at the crank after you've pressed the right buttons. Anecdotal evidence from a commenter at Road & Track says he went from 252 horsepower at the flywheel to 254 hp at the wheels, and 272 lb-ft at the flywheel to 354 lb-ft at the wheels, but we can't be sure that his adjustments were within Ford Racing specs. Your mileage, naturally, may vary. What about custom numbers for the 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the 2015 Ford Mustang? They aren't ready yet, but we're told we'll get something by the end of next year.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?
Wed, 11 Dec 2013The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
