Up for auction is this BEAUTIFUL turquoise 1971 Ford Torino 500 sedan. Runs and drives great! The Cleveland 2V 351 V8 engine has been well taken care of and runs smoothly and powerfully. This car DRIVES! Is mated to the smooth shifting C-4 3 speed automatic transmission. Free of frame rust!
Vehicle is sold AS-IS. Needs some bodywork as seen in the pictures. The right-rear door is a bit pushed in and the clear coat needs to be redone on some body panels. Rear bumper could be re-chromed and hood could use being redone. Also needs some touches such as the chrome striping that goes along the passenger side, passenger side mirror and a few dents and scratches removed, but if you can do it, this is soon to be up to the condition it needs to be to be a top of the line example of American Muscle. Even in the condition it is in, this Torino turns heads wherever it goes and with its potential, this car is destined to be a true collectible classic. The interior has been kept up in great condition! Check out the dash, front seat, and courtesy ceiling light that could be repaired to get this interior looking perfect. A/C needs to be recharged. Does not currently blow cold air, but fan and heater works! Turn signals are not currently working, although headlights and rears lights do work (reverse lights need to be replaced) with the flip of a an aftermarket installed switch you can see under the dash in the picture. This can be replaced with an original switch easily. Also, fuel gauge is not currently working yet temperature gauge is. Wipers are working. The drivers side lap seat belt tensioner needs you to put your finger underneath it to release the seat belt, yet some tinkering will allow it to work as it's supposed to. Has original head unit installed, in addition to an aftermarket head unit installed that blends in with the interior, professionally installed with wood trim. Speakers currently do not work but is wired to be replaced and make sweet sounds come out of your sweet ride. As far as the engine goes, the tie rods have just been replaced, as well as the lower control arms, and upper and lower ball joints. The sway bar bushings have been replaced with polyerethane and everything works perfectly! Also installed is a double roller timing chain, new points, ignition coil, plugs, as well as brake master cylinder and U-joints. The shift points could use being adjusted as can be noticed when putting in Park, Drive, or Reverse. Nevertheless, shifts smoothly and effortlessly when driving. Has all good tires plus a spare. The rear brakes do need to be replaced but the front brakes have been replaced about a month ago. I'm also including a new halogen bulb, additional new spark plugs as well as a used, working electronic distributor for the 351 engine that can replace the now, working analog distributor that's currently installed. Says over 94,000 miles but it's impossible to tell actual mileage as the working odometer only goes up to 100,000 miles. Needs some work to get this in PERFECT condition, but definitely worth it in this vehicle! Thought of keeping it myself and doing all the work, but my heart is set on saving up to buy an RV. Rare original color for a rare car, the style and sport of a muscle car and the practicality of a sedan, this car is ready to GO! Happy Bidding! |

Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.
Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]
Wed, 05 Jun 2013For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.
Ford dealer gives James Robertson new 2015 Taurus
Fri, Feb 6 2015James Robertson, the 56-year-old Detroit native famous for walking 21 miles to work each day for the last 10 years, is behind the wheel again thanks to a gift from a Ford dealer. Robertson became an Internet sensation when the story about his daily ordeal came to light, and a GoFundMe campaign initially hoped to raise $5,000 to buy him a new ride. As of this writing, it has reached over $300,000. He didn't have to dip into any of that money to buy the new car, though. According to The Detroit Free Press, Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights, MI, heard about Robertson's story of never being late to work and having perfect attendance. The dealer is donating a fully loaded, red 2015 Taurus to him. It's not one of our choices, but certainly nothing to sneeze at. Robertson started walking to work in 2005 when his Honda broke down. According to the GoFundMe page, his job is about 23 miles away, but thanks to Detroit's poor bus network, he covers about 21 miles of that round-trip trek on foot each day.
