Up for auction is a 1971 Ford Torino 500 model, uniquely equipped.  Its powered by an M code 351 4 barrel Cleveland engine backed by its original C6 transmission.  The 9" rear end houses its original 3.00 geared traction lock differential.  The engine runs strong and the trans shifts like it should.  It has a nice cam in it but could use a stall converter. REAL NICE full length dual exhaust with Flowmaster 44's.  Looking at the Marti report, it shows the car was not dealer ordered for stock but specifically with these options by a customer.  Along with the drivetrain, it was equipped with power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning, tinted glass, visibility group (under hood, trunk, glove box and map lamps), sport mirrors, styled steel wheels and the in dash tachometer.  The interior is on good shape but could use a dash pad or a dash cap.  door panels, upholstery, headliner all in nice shape.  This is a very solid car as it spent most of its life North Carolina.  All lamps work, turn signals, brakelights, headlights, horn, wipers, windshield washer, heater fan, dash lights, tachometer, door locks, parking brake. Brake pads are at about 50% and rotors are in good shape.  Car starts right and and runs/drives/stops good.  No smoke, knocks or ticks. The car is not a rust bucket, it has nice floors, doors, cowl and trunk.  The front shock towers have NOT been torched for greasing the upper control arms.


New window crank knobs and door lock knobs, dome lamp lens, Duralast Gold battery, reproduction battery cables, battery hold down and bolts, remanufactured correct carburetor, wiper refills in original frames, pre-bent fuel line from fuel pump to carburetor, Monroe front shocks, Cooper Cobra tires.  New intake manifold gaskets.  I do have the original shoulder belts and they go with the car along with the air conditioning cpompressor.  The compressor is not frozen so it should be good.  I have receipts and paperwork going back to the mid 60's and covering 4 different owners.  The vehicle also retains its original owners manual, operators manual, warranty card, starting instructions sleeve and warrranty facts guide.  It has all 5 of the styled steel wheels.  I have two correct non-GT center caps for the wheels also.

This is a one time listing only, it will NOT be relisted.  The ONLY reason its listed is I have found a convertible I want.  The reserve is what I have, total, into this car which is VERY reasonable. Clean Michigan title in my name.

Any questions, just ask.

I will work with your shipper of choice.  The vehicle can stay here for a maximum of 2 weeks but it will be parked outside of the garage.

$500 deposit due within 24 hours thru paypal.  Final payment due within 48 hours of auctions end.  Aki questions first, bid second.  Don't bid if you can't buy it.  You win the auction, you bought it.   Vehicle is sold as is, where it is.

Ford, GM to collaborate on 9- and 10-speed transmissions

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Back in October, there were reports that General Motors and Ford Motor Company were hard at work co-developing new nine- and ten-speed automatic transmissions, and now both automakers have confirmed this joint operation. While there are no specific vehicles mentioned to receive either transmission, a collaborative press release issued by GM and Ford mention that the transmission will be designed for front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, crossovers, trucks and SUVs.
These aren't the first powertrain components developed jointly between these cross-town rivals, either. The six-speed automatic currently used in vehicles like the Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Equinox was engineered in a similar fashion. As is the case with this existing transmission, both automakers will assist in the design, development and testing of the new transmissions, but each will build its own units in its own factories. Scroll down for the official press release.
