This year is the 50th anniversary of this special classic car.  Cruise in elegant style, get lots of looks and thumbs-up. 

 

Engine is a 390 V8.  Odometer says 75,185 but real mileage is probably 175,185.  Great overall condition.  Color is Chantilly Beige Metallic.  Minor paint chips have been repainted, headliner is perfect, landau top is in great shape, new Goodyear whitewall radial tires.


Driver seat control is not working, but can be adjusted manually.  As shown in the photos, there is a minor tear in driver seat.  This can easily be re-upholstered.  Small hole in the dash is being covered by a Route 66 magnet.

 

The Automatic Transmission has recently been rebuilt, as has the carburetor.  Brakes have just been upgraded with a new master cylinder.  Suspension is in good shape, ride is very smooth.  Dual exhaust, with newer mufflers.

 

Power Steering, Power Windows, Air Conditioning, Tinted Glass, Flow-though Ventilation, Swing-away Steering Wheel for ease of entry.  Fender skirts included.

 

I added an extra battery for extra cranking power.  This Bird always starts, idles and runs well. 

 

The Registration has been paid through August of 2015!  No smog checks are required due to vintage.

 

This car is available for viewing in Santa Ana, California.  I do not ship, but will work with shippers that you contract with directly.  Once released to shipper, I cannot be responsible for any damage that may occur.

 

I will accept cash, personal check, money order, cashier's check or wire transfer.  Possession and title transfer upon bank confirmation of funds.  If you have any concern about this, we can use an escrow service.  I am on the up-and-up and expect you to be also.  The only reason this car is for sale is that I need the money for uncovered medical bills, otherwise I would not be selling it.

 

Of course, being 50 years old, the car does not come with a warranty and is being sold as-is, with no returns.  You are more than welcome to test drive it and have it inspected by a mechanic before purchase.

 

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.  Thank you for your interest.

Ford Mustang to get four-cylinder in Europe, but not US

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Fans of the Ford Mustang SVO, which was produced from 1884 through 1986 with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine and a manual transmission, may be interested to know that Ford is reportedly going to introduce something similar for 2015. But don't get too excited if you live in the US, as Edmunds reports that the vehicle will be offered in Europe only. Boo!
According to the report, Ford will put a version of its EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder into the engine bay of the Mustang. The engine would be enlarged from its current 2.0 liters to 2.3 liters, taking horsepower from 252 to around 300. The well-known 5.0 V8 engine will also be available in Europe.
"The Mustang is uniquely Ford and has a huge fan base here in Europe. Now those fans have something to look forward to and we look forward to providing more details in the near future," says Ford of Europe CEO Stephen Odell. That's great... but why not offer buyers in the States the (likely) fuel-efficient turbo option, too?

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.

Ford's Simple Suit Makes You Feel Like A Drunk Driver

Tue, Mar 25 2014

We've all heard about the dangers of drunk driving for practically our entire lives. Whether it's from PSAs on TV or lectures in school, no one can claim ignorance of drunk driving being extremely dangerous. However, that doesn't prevent some people from still doing it. Ford is trying to take the safety message directly to young drivers with a special suit that allows them to simulate driving under the influence. It is all part of Ford's Driving Skills for Life program that gives free driving education to young people. The program is meant to "train kids in skills they don't learn in driver's ed," said Kelli Felker, Ford Safety Communications Manager, to Autoblog. The drivers don a few items to impair their senses and make them off-balance to simulate having a few too many drinks and then go out on a closed course with an instructor to see the effects. Felker said that the suit is a new part of the program, and Ford just received the outfit in the US. It will be incorporated into the training here in the late spring or early summer. Scroll down to see the effect it has on drivers in Europe. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
