I have had this B2 since 2004. I bought it in South Georgia and brought it to Ohio in 2007. It has a 2.9 V6 and I suspect it has cracked heads. I was stuck in traffic and it over heated. I drove it home anyway, so the engine is probably toast. I have swapped the engine out a couple of times already and I am just tired of fixing it up. It does not run. The body is probably the best you will find. It was painted (stayed with original blue) a few years back and they did a good job. Then a deer ran into it and I replaced the passenger door and fender with ones out of a salvage yard of the same color (but faded). I do have a brand new fender still in the cardboard. Performance mods included: Pacesetter ceramic coated headers, K&N air filter, rear leaf springs from an Explorer, larger throttle body from an earlier year 2.9, cool 2 part sun visors, Upper and Lower intakes are port matched, 5 very nice wheels from an explorer, Bucket seats were reupholstered by a hot rod shop and I have enough fabric to have the rear seats done if they ever needed it (they are still original and in great shape), performance coil, upgraded plug wires, Thrush muffler (I will also give you the old turbo muffler if you want it), headlight lenses are pretty clear. I added a blue lighted switch on the dash for the fog lights. One of the fog lights got busted and I took the other one off, but it would be easy to put a pair on. I thought about swapping in a 4.0 (I have one on the engine stand) but I just don't have time to work on it any more. Somebody buy this B2. Don't make me take it to the scrap yard. It would break my heart. Hard to let it go. Would like to see somebody use it. YOU MUST COME AND PICK IT UP.

1969 Ford Talladega GPT Special is a SEMA showstopper

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Rad Rides by Troy has unleashed upon the SEMA crowds this custom 1969 Ford Torino Talladega GT Special, and it's a beauty. The car calls to mind the classic Holman Moody stock cars that circled NASCAR tracks in the late 1960's, driven by the likes of Mario Andretti, Dan Gurney and David Pearson, who won the Grand National title in both 1968 and '69 in a Ford Torino.
Even though it has plenty of stock-car influence, there's nothing retro about the car's design or powertrain, other than the fact that the engine is based on a Ford Boss 429 block. Fuel injection, aftermarket aluminum heads and a high-tech custom computer system combine to send 750 reliable ponies to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Brakes measure 14-inches all around, with six-piston Wilwood calipers up front and four-piston units out back.
There's custom bodywork abound, painted in a two-tone Tennessee Whiskey Gold and Daytona Sand finish. Check out all the amazing details in the image gallery below, and scroll down to read all about it in designer Troy Trepanier's own words.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

Ford E-Series chassis cabs and cutaways to survive mass Transit onslaught

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

In March 2013, Ford announced we'd be getting chassis cab and cutaway versions of the Transit. Since incoming Transit vans will soon be rolling over the grave of the E-Series van, it was assumed that all E-Series models would go six feet under as well. According to a report from PickupTrucks.com, however, that's not the case, the report claiming that the highly modifiable E-350 and E-450 chassis cab and cutaway versions will continue being produced in Avon Lake, Ohio "at least until 2020."
Being decades old, the be-cabbed E-Series platform has found its way under an army of heavy-duty shuttle buses, work truck and ambulances. Ford spokeswoman Jessica Enoch verified the production horizon, telling Autoblog that the particular E-Series configuration "are a higher GVWR than the Transit chassis cab and cutaway (available this summer), which is more Class 2 and a new segment for us." So there you have it.
