1974 Ford Gran Torino 4 Door No Smog Required! Local Pickup Only!! on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
NO SMOG REQUIRED! LOCAL PICKUP ONLY!! Just registered it this month but ran into a snag. So at least registration shouldn't cost you very much. Runs and all and is road ready. Is in relatively decent shape. No big dents or anything. Bought it off my cousin (used to belong to my uncle) a little less than a year ago thinking I would have time for a project, but turns out I don't. Has a 400, V8 that was rebuilt a couple years before I got it so maybe a few thousand miles on it or so. Mileage listed isn't correct, obviously. Odometer no longer works. C-4 or C-6 auto trans, I think, Crager rims w/ wheel locks, and I still have the key. I did a bunch of the steering linkage, re did some interior stuff (there's a pic of the gauge bezel I re-did), changed out all the locks, got new visor pins, had the carb. gone through by S.D. carb., replaced the rear drivers side tail lens, still have the original grille, changed the oil, etc. I swapped the seat tracks in the front, as well. The driver side was powered but the motor seized so its manual now. All the power windows still work but one gets a little sticky. It runs well but it does need some work. Could use new paint and headliner, new windshield gasket, weatherstripping, the kill switch in it needs to be replaced, there is no radio but some pretty decent speakers in the back. Definitely needs a brake booster and a steering gearbox. Both will run you around $100. I have receipts for everything I've done. It really sounds awesome when you fire it up, too. I frequently run the engine for about 15 mins at a time to keep things flowing. Doesn't get driven too much. I can send more pics upon request. Serious only, please. Thanks.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
Ford Figo concept unveiled in India
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.
