I am listing this car for a relative so please contact him at 502-409 -3479 with any questions. His name is Daniel. I personally do not know very much regarding this car. The following is the information he gave to me...... "This car needs a complete restoration. It hasn't run in years but is very solid, very complete and very restorable. I have started the motor with a gravity feed and let it run just long enough to know that it does run. The gas in the tank is old/bad and needs to be removed and the tank flushed. The car has very minimal rust. The battery tray is the worst......it needs to be replaced. The floors appear to be solid except for one spot about the size of a baseball in the passenger front. The frame rails and torque boxes seem to be solid. The trunk and rocker panels are very solid with no visible rust. This car is complete and has lots of options. I have received the Marti report for this car and it shows the options as: Black Vinyl Roof; GT Equipment Group; C-6 Select Shift Cruise-O-Matic; F70X14 White Sidewall Nylon Wide Oval Tires; Console; Power Disc Brakes; Power Steering; AM Radio; Tinted Glass; In-Dash Tachometer & Trip Odometer. The back seat and passenger front seat are very nice. The driver's seat has a rip in the back rest. Car originally came with a 4 barrel carburetor but now has a 2 barrel.The story is that a father bought this car (used) for his daughter and swapped the carb and manifold for her safety. I do not have the original 4 barrel carb & manifold. I was told by the previous owner that the motor is supposed to be the original but I can't guarantee this to be a fact........I could not find a serial number on the block. This car is very complete and solid and is an excellent candidate for restoration. If you live close by or can send a rep, I encourage you to inspect the car in person.......you will not be disappointed. Car is located in Taylorsville KY (30 miles east of Louisville). Again, my name is Daniel and I will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Cell number is 502-409-3479. Thanks for looking." |

Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.
2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.
2016 Ford Taurus to ride atop reworked Fusion platform
Wed, 19 Mar 2014Generally, cars get bigger and heavier as they get older. That's why it looks so ridiculous when you park a classic Mini next to a modern version. The same can be said of the Corvette, the BMW 3 Series, Porsche 911 and, of course, the Ford Taurus. In the Taurus' case, though, that size has become a liability, particularly because the big brute isn't nearly as sizable on the inside as it is on the out.
For 2016, Ford is aiming to rectify that. According to Edmunds, the 2016 Taurus will ride on a stretched and widened Ford Fusion platform. Ford is expecting this move to go a long way in trimming the Taurus' ample body fat.
"The problem with today's Taurus is that it is overweight and even the high performance SHO is not really competitive," said a source that spoke to Edmunds on condition of anonymity. The 365-horsepower SHO variant, "actually weighs about as much as the stretched Audi A8 L. Of course, Audi uses an extensive amount of aluminum, but it is a much bigger car."
