Attention all Miners, 419'ers, Astronauts on their way to the International Space Station, SEAL Team Six Members,
and Oil Platform Workers. I'd like to accommodate your needs however the timeframe to complete the sale is clear
and simple. Read and follow directions.
Don't you love the stories, or how many guys were SEAL's?!?!? I don't know we had so many!!!... Lol
The 1970 Torino was designed by Bill Schenk. His design was inspired by the supersonic aircrafts of the day that
were designed and built with a narrow waist and bulging forward and rear fuselage that was needed to reach
supersonic speeds.
This 1970 Torino is a numbers matching vehicle with the original 351 Cleveland. The VIN, Fender Tag, and Engine
Block all uniform and matching.
Yes, you are looking at THE original engine. Ask any car guy what it takes (labor hours and money) to make a
nearly half century old original engine compartment look like that... Not only does it look pretty, but it's
basically a new engine. The engine was broken down piece by piece and put back together better than it was on the
day it was delivered from Cleveland. The Cleveland was the upgrade to the 351 Windsor.
When you turn the key it sounds amazing! The dual exhaust sounds AWESOME! It has a deep, but not an obnoxious
rumble.
As far as the body is concerned... It's straighter now than in the day it was sold in 1970-71. Experienced car
guys will tell you that when these rolled down the assembly line there wasn't time for them to line up every panel
perfect, so gaps and misalignments were common. The time was taken to correct those gaps, and Steele Rubber

Suppliers love Toyota and Honda: Why that matters to you
Mon, May 15 2017You might think that a survey of automotive suppliers and their relationship with OEMs is the automotive equivalent of nerd prom. In some ways that's what the North American Automotive OEM-Supplier Working Relations Index (WRI) is. The study, the 17th annual conducted by Planning Perspectives Inc., is based on input from 652 salespeople from 108 Tier One suppliers, or, PPI points out, 40 of the top 50 automotive suppliers in North America. Suppliers to General Motors, Ford, FCA, Toyota, Honda, and Nissan. But the results have consequences in terms of tens of millions of dollars for OEMs - and in the quality, technology, and cost of the next vehicle you buy. There are a couple of ways to look at the results of the WRI. One is, "So what else is new?" And the other is, "Damn! How did that happen?" The study looks at five relationship areas — OEM Supplier Relationship; OEM Communication; OEM Help; OEM Hindrance; Supplier Profit Opportunity — within six purchasing areas — Body-in-White; Chassis; Electrical/Electronics; Exterior; Interior; Powertrain. In the overall rankings, Toyota is on top for the 15 th time in 17 years, with a score of 328. Honda, the only company to best Toyota (in 2009 and 2010), comes in second, at 319. Those two companies, explains John Henke, president of PPI, have collaborative working arrangements with colleagues and suppliers alike built into the very fabric of their cultures. This, however, is not a situation where one can readily conclude it is about "Japanese companies," because the third company with headquarters on the island of Honshu, Nissan, came in dead last. This is the "How did that happen?" portion. The Nissan score of 203 puts it 125 points behind Toyota. There hasn't been a number that low since the then-Chrysler Corp. scored 187 in 2010, when the company was clawing its way out of the recession. Clearly, the suppliers don't feel particularly engaged by the buyers at Nissan. Henke explains that whether a company does well or not on the WRI is rather simple. All people do things based on what they're measured on. "If you're measured on taking 10% out of your annual buy, you immediately know how to do it. But if you're also measured on improving relations, suddenly there is a new dynamic as to what you can do to achieve both.
Supercars for the win | Autoblog Podcast #515

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...
