1970 Ford Torino No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Lake Oswego, Oregon, United States
|
1970 Ford Torino, It has a 302 with 4 barrel Edelbrock intake and 4 barrel Edelbrock carb, runs great and fires up every time, rebuild C4 transmission with 500 miles on it (according to previous owner), trans is great shifts and has kick down hooked up. Engine actually pushes the car pretty, Just flushed the fuel system and put fresh gas in tank, fixed the fuel gauge so that works, has a Brand new battery. Car has power steering, power brakes with disks up front, heater works, doors are solid, rear quarter panels are solid, has some rust here and there, floor board on drivers side needs some attention (previous owner did bad repair job on small area). Runs and drives, though I would not recommend it until the brakes are gone through as they are VERY weak so it will need to be trailered. Needs to have some electrical work to get headlights and windshield wipers working. It is a project, but with new carpet, headliner and a coat of paint it would be pretty cool. Very original car with the factory trim, wheels, and hasn't been tampered with very much. Tires are almost full tread although they appear to be pretty old. Would be a great start for a restoration. Included a lot of pictures to show condition, no idea on how many of miles are on the car. If you have any questions shoot me a message. Have added some pictures of the trunk, floor board, and rear wheel wheels from request. There is some body filler on the right starting to flake off, and probably rusted out floorboard under the patch in the picture, I haven't pulled it up and looked at it. Definitely a project, but one that you could drive and work on as soon as the brakes are fixed. Body seem to be pretty solid with the exception of a few rusted spots. Seems to also have a slow drain on the battery. $250 Payment within 48 hours, Rest in cash in person when you pick it up. You come pick it up, or I can deliver within 250 miles of Portland for $2 a mile. If this doesn't work, send me a message and we can figure out other payment options.

MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP
Thu, Aug 6 2015Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.
Ford Mustang hit by Moore' Oklahoma's EF5 tornado lives to do another burnout
Fri, 07 Jun 2013Oklahoma recently saw the destructive power of an EF5 tornado, but in the aftermath of the devastation, we've also been witness to the incredible resilience of the human spirit. Moore, OK resident Jack Haden survived the storm but found that his 2003 Ford Mustang wasn't quite as lucky. As you can see in the image above, the tornado's 200+ mph winds did quite a number on the car, but while most people would have likely called their insurance company and scrapped the car, Haden had other plans.
After finding the car and seeing that its V6 still fired up, Haden spent a couple hours getting the car, um... roadworthy(?)... by removing the doors and front clip, cutting off the roof and putting on some new wheels and tires. He noticed that driving it around brought some comic relief to an area that needed a reason to laugh and smile. Check out the KSBI TV news report video below showing before and after pictures of the tough 'Stang, as well as a video showing the newly lightweight coupe doing a smoky burnout.
Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.
