You are looking at a a J-code Shaker Equipped 429CJ Ram Air Torino Cobra project car. It is an ex-Drag car from New Jersey that has been sitting for many years!! This was a 1 owner Cobra that is a Real Red Exterior, Black Bucket Seat and Console car.

It was a local New Jersey Bracket racer at Englishtown Raceway and has many Class Winner Decals on the 1/4 window reflecting this.

This an ORIGINAL 1970 Torino Cobra and I have the Deluxe Marti Sheet on to document it's options and production numbers.

This Torino Cobra was originally equipped as follows:

429 Cobra Jet Ram Air Engine

C-6 Automatic Transmission

3.50 N-case 31 Spline 9 inch Rear

Red Exterior Paint

Black Knitted Vinyl Bucket Seat Interior

Shaker Hood

Console

Power Steering

Power Disc Brakes

F70-14 Raised White Letter Tires

AM Radio

Once it's racing days were over it was set out in the yard to languish for many years.

The body is pretty much complete as shown, but it is a RUSTY car!! Now I have seen worse cars than this one restored and better ones cut up. The good news on this one is at least this one has a decent pedigree. The Cobra Grille in the car while not perfect is actually in decent shape and is a VERY HIGH DOLLAR piece!

The interior is mostly original but is missing the original front seats and console. I do have a replacement air of 1970-1971 Torino/Cyclone Bucket Seat that I will include with the car. The original back seat and door panels in the car are in decent shape for their age. The dash and door panels still retain their original Cobra Emblems on them.

The good: it is a REAL J-code 429CJ Ram Air Cobra (38 body code) and comes with what I have been told is a 429CJ just not the original block to the car. I have not opened it up to see, but is does have D00E-R 429CJ Heads with CJ Aluminum Valve covers and a DOOE Iron CJ Intake manifold! I know nothing else about it and would assume it needs a complete overhaul. Car still has it's original 9 inch 31 Spline N-case rear end underneath it. It also comes with the 429CJ Shaker top assembly with an incorrect base.

The BAD: Car is a Rusty New Jersey car!! Been off the road a long time and is rusty or scaly all over the bottom side with a rusty rear driver frame rail.

The Original Transmission is missing.

I have the original New Jersey Title for this car from 1970.

Car does roll and the engine is laying in the engine bay for shipment.

If the winning bidder so desires I do have a rock solid 2 owner running factory Red 1970 Fairlane 500 from California that I bought to use as a parts car to restore the Cobra and while not a part of this auction I can make it available at a very reasonable extra cost. I will include a couple of pictures of the Fairlane to the bottom of this auction, but IT IS NOT A PART OF THIS AUCTIOn. This Auction is for the 1970 Ford Torino Cobra ONLY as described in the auction text above.

Please look at the pictures and ask any questions BEFORE you bid!! I want you to be sure of what you are bidding on and for us both to be satisfied with the Torino Cobra's described condition and its sale. I expect a deposit within 24 hours of auctions end and balance of payment within 7 days of auction end. This 1970 Ford Torino Cobra is a 44+ year old project car and as such is being auctioned 'as-is where-is' and 'as-described' with no warranties either expressed or implied. I have described this 1970 Torino Cobra project car accurately so please read the auction text and look at the pictures carefully to make sure this is what you want before bidding. If you are not sure please do not bid. I take my auctions seriously and so should you. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Radical RXC is a Mustang-hearted racecar for the road

Fri, May 30 2014

Radical has been building fantastic open-cockpit racers and roadcars for years, for the track day enthusiast who wants a vehicle that looks like it could show up for a start at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The company's latest creation is the RXC, and while this coupe looks like a prototype racer, it's road legal in the UK and in some parts of the US. When testing a car this, um, radical, the first thought is likely to get it to the track for some big slides and wide open acceleration, but XCar Films takes the opposite approach in its latest video to learn how this racer fares on public roads. The version tested here is the standard RXC with the 3.7-liter V6 out of the Ford Mustang tuned to 350 horsepower with a seven-speed sequential gearbox; but Radical also offers the same engine with 380-hp, a 454-hp Ford EcoBoost 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6, or even a 500-hp V8. Even in the most basic guise, it's a handful to control in the wet, if this video is any indication. The cliche of a road-legal racecar is bandied around a lot in the motoring world, but it truly applies to the RXC. The only problem with seeing the RXC exclusively on the road is that it can never really open up and show its full potential. This racer is indeed chomping at the bit to rocket off into the horizon, but all those pesky road safety laws hold it back. Still, the video is a chance to get a better impression about this thoroughbred sports car. Scroll down to check it out. This content is hosted by a third party.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
