Up for your consideration of ownership is about the cleanest 1972 Ford Torino 4 door.  Yes it’s a 4 door but it sure is sweet!  This car is super solid and only has 51,400 miles. Perfect for an entry level collector car or a great daily driver for that collector who cannot get enough and who doesn’t want to drive their 2 door, convertible or collectable daily.  This is my fathers car and we are selling it because his 55 Thunderbird has taken up the garage spot.  Storage has been lost to the little bird. 

New parts on the 72 less than 1100 miles ago.  $2100 invested into my dad’s car to make it a good diver…..Little did I know he would rather drive a t-bird convertible! HAHA.

All of these new parts were put on last year and then the car was parked.  To be a good daily driver or ready for shows you will need to put new tires on the car.  They have plenty of tread but they are dry.  I drive the car around the neighborhood but wouldn’t go any further than that due to their dryness.   Also when you purchase you do need to trailer the car.  Tires are dry and fuel is old.   I would drain the tank and have fresh fuel added.  Sometimes the car starts to miss due to bad fuel we believe.  It had almost a full tank of fuel that is over a year old.  I try to run the car and drive it around as much as I can when I get time.  I just simply do not have the time to change the fuel out or spend any time working on the car.  I have 3 restoration projects currently. 

 

Please look closely at these pictures.  The paint on this car is SUPER NICE!  It appears some parts have been repainted but they did a great job!  The front seat has had some rips so there is tape on the seat.  Again, I would love to recover the seat but im just too busy.  The headliner is super nice, door pannles like new!  Doors open and close like new.  Windows work.  Heat is hot!  Wipers wipe perfectly!  Lights work, indicators, etc! The pictures are very high resolution so look at how nice everything is.  NO RUST though the floors, trunk or frame.  This looks like a southern car.  But you will have that when garage kept like this one! 

I can deliver this car for you as I have a diesel truck and a trailer.  It would be fairly expensive though. 

New tires, new fuel – you have one kick butt car for a super great price!

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.

Xcar celebrates 100-year anniversary with Model T tribute

Fri, Jan 9 2015

Never mind the fact that XCar hasn't been making videos for the last 100 years, the British duo have gone all silent-moving-pictures in order to make their centenary case for the Ford Model T, a car that was already seven years old in 1915. It's not a review, but a mostly sepia-tinged look at the car that started the mass-market adventure by taking that biblical advice to be fruitful and multiply and populate the Earth abundantly. Since it looks like Xcar is celebrating some kind of milestone, we've also included another video below of the first Xcar review we could find, covering the BMW M1, from the much more recent past - circa 2012.
