1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport
400 Cubic Inch 6.6L engine.

Almost everything on this car is new as of the past year and a half (over 32K invested), and I have paperwork/documentation for everything. This car needs nothing. It's not a show car, but a very nice, and reliable driver. Perfect for long road trips or getting groceries. Just repainted in the original color (Medium Yellow).

Original 400 motor (Rebuilt) Converted from 2 to 4-barrel. New carburetor, intake, cam, timing chain kit, and pushrods (All Edelbrock) New radiator, starter, and alternator. Disk brakes in front/Drums in the rear. (New Master cylinder, and brake calipers) Almost everything under the hood has been restored/replaced. Too much to list off the top of my head, but I'm happy to answer any questions.

(I still have the original intake and 2 barrel carb if you wanted to revert back to it's original set up.)

C6 Three speed automatic transmission. (Rebuilt last year) Shifts perfectly.

Working heat and AC. (Converted from R12 to R134A) Power windows (New window motors). New rear air shocks, and tires. Ride is incredibly smooth especially for a muscle car.

Interior is almost perfect. Seats have been reupholstered/re-stuffed to match original. Headliner is new. Shoulder strap seatbelts have been installed. All gages and lights work. Great sound system installed under dash so the original radio is still in place. Has a smart phone connection so you can listen to mp3's/GPS etc. Carpet is original. Looks decent, but is torn underneath the driver side floor mat.

Body is rust free with the exception of some bubbling under the vinyl roof. Which is common with vinyl tops, but the roof is solid. Exhaust was converted from single to duel by the previous owner. Sounds incredible, but pipes have some rust.

This is the same model car from the Clint Eastwood movie "Gran Torino", and its value has been increasing steadily since the movie came out. This actual car is also in a movie that is scheduled to release this year called "79 Parts". Check it out on IMDB.

Thanks,
John

Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.

Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.

Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5

Tue, Oct 4 2016

We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.
