Very nice Gran Torino station wagon. Runs and drives well. Has new brakes, new suspension(shocks, springs, bushings) front and rear. Undercarriage has very light rust, the only bad rust is in the storage compartment under the back deck. Needs new headliner, seats are good, but there is a little wear and tear. Has new carpet and a new steering wheel. everything works with exception of A/C compressor and windshield wipers. Car did not have a wiper switch when I got it, I found one and it will operate the washer pump, but not the motor, I don't know if the wiper motor is good or not. Has 351 Cleveland with 2bbl carb. Starts easy, small leak on the valve covers gets little oil on the exhaust manifold causing a little smoke till the engine warms up. After engine has run and stopped, it will produce a little smoke when re-started, but goes away quickly. Odometer shows 116,000 plus miles. The paint is original, no bodywork has been done. Has a few dents and dings, all glass is good, rear window rolls down, but needs help going back up..sounds like a gear has worn out, electric motor is good.

This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars
Tue, 25 Feb 2014The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.
Ford dinged by OSHA for asbestos at Buffalo plant
Sat, 20 Jul 2013Ford has come under fire from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for violations regarding asbestos exposure in a company metal stamping plant in Buffalo, NY. OSHA has cited Ford for eight violations in total, according to an Automotive News report, and faces fines of up to $41,800. 537 workers are employed at the stamping facility.
The violations include a pipefitter at the facility being exposed to asbestos-containing material while working on a steam line, other workers exposed to the material without respiratory protection and work areas that were not designed to limited the number of workers in contact with asbestos. Further, areas in which asbestos was present were not properly restricted, and levels of asbestos in the air were not monitored.
According to an unnamed Ford spokesperson in the AN report, the company feels that the OSHA citation is erroneous saying, "We have fully cooperated with the local OSHA officials and we don't believe the citations are warranted." Ford also maintains that it will work with the authorities to resolve the issue.

Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner.

Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
