You are looking at a a J-code Shaker Equipped 429CJ Ram Air Torino Cobra project car. It is an ex-Drag car from New Jersey that has been sitting for many years!! This was a 1 owner Cobra that is a Real Red Exterior, Black Bucket Seat and Console car. 

It was a local New Jersey Bracket racer at Englishtown Raceway and has many Class Winner Decals on the 1/4 window reflecting this. 

This an ORIGINAL 1970 Torino Cobra and I have the Deluxe Marti Sheet on to document it's options and production numbers. 

This Torino Cobra was originally equipped as follows:

429 Cobra Jet Ram Air Engine 
C-6 Automatic Transmission
3.50 N-case 31 Spline 9 inch Rear
Red Exterior Paint
Black Knitted Vinyl Bucket Seat Interior
Shaker Hood
Console
Power Steering
Power Disc Brakes
F70-14 Raised White Letter Tires
AM Radio 


Once it's racing days were over it was set out in the yard to languish for many years. 

The body is pretty much complete as shown, but it is a RUSTY car!! Now I have seen worse cars than this one restored and better ones cut up. The good news on this one is at least this one has a decent pedigree. The Cobra Grille in the car while not perfect is actually in decent shape and is a VERY HIGH DOLLAR piece!

The interior is mostly original but is missing the original front seats and console. I do have a replacement air of 1970-1971 Torino/Cyclone Bucket Seat that I will include with the car. The original back seat and door panels in the car are in decent shape for their age. The dash and door panels still retain their original Cobra Emblems on them.

The good: it is a REAL J-code 429CJ Ram Air Cobra (38 body code) and comes with what I have been told is a 429CJ just not the original block to the car. I have not opened it up to see, but is does have D00E-R 429CJ Heads with CJ Aluminum Valve covers and a DOOE Iron CJ Intake manifold! I know nothing else about it and would assume it needs a complete overhaul. Car still has it's original 9 inch 31 Spline N-case rear end underneath it. It also comes with the 429CJ Shaker top assembly with an incorrect base.

The BAD: Car is a Rusty New Jersey car!! Been off the road a long time and is rusty or scaly all over the bottom side with a rusty rear driver frame rail. 

The Original Transmission is missing.

I have the original New Jersey Title for this car from 1970.

Car does roll and the engine is laying in the engine bay for shipment.

  
If the winning bidder so desires I do have a rock solid 2 owner running factory Red 1970 Fairlane 500 from California that I bought to use as a parts car to restore the Cobra and while not a part of this auction I can make it available at a very reasonable extra cost. I will include a couple of pictures of the Fairlane to the bottom of this auction, but IT IS NOT A PART OF THIS AUCTIOn. This Auction is for the 1970 Ford Torino Cobra ONLY as described in the auction text above. 

Please look at the pictures and ask any questions BEFORE you bid!! I want you to be sure of what you are bidding on and for us both to be satisfied with the Torino Cobra's described condition and its sale. I expect a deposit within 24 hours of auctions end and balance of payment within 7 days of auction end. This 1970 Ford Torino Cobra is a 44+ year old project car and as such is being auctioned 'as-is where-is' and 'as-described' with no warranties either expressed or implied. I have described this 1970 Torino Cobra project car accurately so please read the auction text and look at the pictures carefully to make sure this is what you want before bidding. If you are not sure please do not bid. I take my auctions seriously and so should you. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.

Ford reveals all-new Everest SUV at Asia-Pacific forum [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

While the Explorer may have shifted from a truck-based sport-ute to a car-based crossover, Ford still offers buyers on the other side of the Pacific a Ranger-based SUV in the form of the Everest. And at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Beijing today, the Blue Oval revealed the all-new version you see here.
Previewed in concept form over a year ago and made specifically for the Asia-Pacific market, the new Ford Everest is designed to be more refined on the road and more capable off of it. Like the Explorer once was, the new Everest is based on a stretched version of the overseas Ford Ranger pickup. Depending on the specific market, Ford will offer the new Everest with a range of engines including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbo four and two Duratorq turbodiesels - a 2.2-liter four and a 3.2-liter inline-five - mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
Earmarked to take on the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new Everest promises rock-crawlers even better off-road capabilities. It's got nearly nine inches of ground clearance, over 30 inches of wading depth, a 29-degree approach and 25-degree departure angles and a set of features including on-the-fly adjustable four-wheel drive.

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013



The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.
