Offered for your consideration is this 1969 FORD TORINO GT CONVERTIBLE. This original car is an all numbers matching vehicle with only 87,XXX original miles. The engine is the 351 5.8L Windsor V8 with factory 4 barrel carb. This motor runs great, doesn't smoke, and starts right up with the first turn of the key (even cold). The three speed factory automatic transmission is in great shape and shifts perfectly. As seen in my photo's the paint is original and the body does need some work with having some rust and a couple of light dents. The interior is all original and in very nice shape having absolutely NO holes or rips. The dash is nice and all gauges work as they should and the hood mounted blinker indicators work too. The floor boards and trunks are completely solid and in original condition. The under carriage and frame are solid (scale is a little flaky). Does need a new soft top but the frame is in good shape.
The Torino had only 2 owners and was bought new here in Saint Louis at a Ford dealer in 1969 then traded in and resold in 1970 here in Saint Louis out of Barton Pontiac (the car has that dealer sticker still) and that owner has had it all that time (see pic's for title). This car is a joy to drive in it's current condition and mechanically sound. She really only need attention to her body to be perfect again!!! CALL JASON 314-771-8811 |

Your official Ford Transit specs are here, $29,565* to start
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Ford has released the full list of pricing and specs on its new Transit, the replacement for the long-lived E-Series cargo van. Prices are set to start at $29,565 and can increase rapidly from there, depending on length, engine and wheelbase, among other options.
Let's talk first about those new engines. The base is the familiar 3.7-liter, naturally aspirated V6. It boasts 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and can return up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This engine can also be adapted to run on LPG or compressed natural gas. Of course, there are better alternatives, for a price, the first of which is Ford's well-received, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. It packs 310 hp and a best-in-class 400 lb-ft of torque (available at just 2,500 rpm) while matching the naturally aspirated engine in both city and highway fuel economy.
Then, there's the diesel. With a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel mill at its disposal, the Transit generates 350 lb-ft between 1,500 and 2,500 rpm, along with 185 hp. This engine hasn't been rated by the EPA, although we'd be really, really surprised if it didn't handily best either of the gas-powered engines in fuel efficiency. A six-speed automatic is standard, regardless of engine.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
