Fully documented by Ford Canada and numbers matching 1969 Ford Cobra. Very well optioned with cloth and vinyl buckets seats, black vinyl roof, engine block heater, XPL C 6 automatic transmission, clock, visibility light group, argent steel styled wheels, console, power steering and brakes, AM radio, complete tinted windows, left and right hand racing mirrors, and last but not least, factory air conditioning. I have contacted the people at Marti reports and many Fairlane clubs trying to get an idea of how many Cobra's had air but with no success. The January 2012 edition of Hemming's Muscle Machines had an entire Buyers Guide article on the 69 Cobras and gave a very indepth account of everything from engines, brakes, transmissions, interior, chassis and body. Even this article did not even mention air conditioning as an available option, so there must have been very few examples produced. They also mentioned that the R code Ram Air option added 15% to the value. The Wimbledon White body has had one repaint years ago and does have a few minor chips and door dings. The vinyl top is in very nice condition. Dash board and interior are excellent. The console lid is loose from the body of the console but could easily be repaired. The brake light is on on the dash. The car brakes very well, and I was told that the proportioning valve may be stuck and that will cause the light to go on. The engine was rebuilt by the previous owner about 12,000 miles ago. Torque boxes are great. I have many NOS parts for this car including eyebrow moldings and ring gear, plus used factory dash tach and AM/FM radio that will be offered for an additional cost to the buyer. I will personally handle all the brokerage details and costs involved to allow me to bring the car into Michigan will a perfectly clear title so it can be picked up and transported to any state |

2015 Ford Focus
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.
Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.
RTR Spec 5 Concept shows off 2015 Ford Mustang's drifty potential
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Meet the Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 Concept, a fully functional drift car that, according to our team in Sin City, has been doling out demo drifts in front of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Destined to be the flagship of RTR's Tactical Performance Line, the Spec 5 Concept is, in addition to its 5.0-liter Aluminator V8 engine, chock full of performance parts that you can buy for your very own 2015 Mustang. In addition to the Ford Racing engine, the OEM parts supplier has lent the Spec 5 an aluminum radiator and a close-ratio six-speed transmission.
ASD Motorsports provided the front lower control arms, while the car itself rides on a fully customized coilover suspension. Magnaflow and American Racing have provided the exhaust system and headers, respectively. 20-inch HRE wheels, designed for RTR, are wrapped in sticky Nitto rubber.
