1964 Mercury Cyclone Base 4.7l on 2040-cars
Salinas, California, United States
1964 Comet Cyclone: Only
7,454 of these were made. Only one year of this body style was ever
built. This car's Data Plate: 63E
(2dr.Cyclone) J(Carnival Red) 05 (White interior) A28 (Jan.28 build)
22 (Dallas Texas) 1 (310 to 1) 6 (3 Speed Automatic) Car runs & drives like
new. Engine & 3 speed auto transmission were rebuilt. Exhaust is new
with stainless mufflers and tips, fabulous sound. List of things done is
endless but include: Petronics, tires, brakes & lines, radiator & shroud,
heater core, halogen headlights, belts, hoses, generator, regulator,
brake solenoid, seat belts, battery, +more. Undercarriage was so
excellent that it has been cleaned and painted. You'll be impressed
with detailing and overall integrity of the lines and body. Older paint buffed
to a beautiful luster- not perfect but is excellent and gets a ton of
compliments. Chrome in excellent condition and the front bumper may
have been re-chromed. Back bumper is very nice original. Original headliner.
Door & trunk gaskets have been replaced. Interior is excellent having been
reupholstered at some point and shows very little wear. Title and
odometer show that the car has 54k miles and it looks and feels believable,
although I would not represent a car this old as original miles. A rust free,
drive anywhere no-nonsense car that is as unique and beautiful. Carnival
Red color is really rich, and has various looks depending on
the light as you can see from the pictures. If you are looking for a car that will stand out in any meet or show, this is one to be proud of. You will, more than likely not see others in this kind of condition. The car is being sold where is, as-is with no warrantee expressed or implied. I recommend you come see it prior to bidding. The car for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time prior to it hitting my reserve. Everything but the tachometer and cigarette lighter works including the AM radio.
Looks to be a non matching 289 2 BBl. It makes sense that it's
a 289 because it is very quick off the line, and on the highway.
People who have looked at the pictures say they "know" it is a 289ci,
but doubt it's the original motor as the color is wrong. I don't know
either way, and said that in the ad that it is probably a (NOM) non-matching
number. I've been told that you need to take the starter out to check the
numbers, and I'm not going to do that at this point. So assume it's not
the original motor in bidding. Original manifolds. It does not have headers. It's a great car, but if you are looking for a pure matching number Cyclone, this is more than likely not for you. Also included is a set of poverty caps.

The AM37 is literally the Aston Martin of boats
Wed, Sep 28 2016While sports car companies such as Porsche and Lamborghini are looking to SUVs to expand their offerings, Aston Martin has taken a page from Mercedes and designed a boat. Specifically, it's a 37-foot powerboat appropriately named the AM37. The boat was developed with help from Mulder Design and Quintessence Yachts, and is available in two different versions, both of which should the aquatic equivalent of Aston Martin performance. The standard AM37 is available with two different pairs of engines from Mercury, either 370-horsepower diesel engines or 450-horsepower gas engines. If that's not enough, Aston also offers the AM37S, which comes with a pair of 520-horsepower gasoline Mercury engines. Like road-going Astons, this boat is absolutely gorgeous. The lines are simple, crisp and clean. It features a beautiful wood deck, and an impressive double-curved, single-piece glass windshield. And if you get tired of the sun, the AM37 features a powered, carbon fiber bimini top. The interior completes the package with a carbon fiber dashboard, lots of leather and polished steering wheel, throttle and joystick. It's also incredibly well-equipped with seating for eight, air conditioning, mood lighting, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, a bed that folds out from the table, and even a bathroom. Aston Martin didn't release pricing or availability for the AM37. However, we suspect that if you really want this boat and have the means, pricing doesn't matter, and you're probably willing to wait.

New Forza 6 car pack will let you race the Pontiac Aztek
Fri, Jan 29 2016Just in time for this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, the new Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 on the Xbox One lets you slip into the driver's seat of last year's winner. If you want to take something much weirder for a spin, the collection also includes a 2005 Pontiac Aztek. The download is available now for $6.99. The Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona was in a four-car battle early in last year's race, but it eventually was victorious. Forza Motorsport 6 also challenges drivers who download the car to a new Rivals event around Daytona, and the fastest people could win Alpinestars prizes. If you're nostalgic for a classic Daytona racecar, this pack includes Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7. The V8-powered beast won the IMSA GTO class in the 24-hour event in 1990. It should be fun around the game's longer road courses like Road Atlanta. This collection also has an eclectic mix of vehicles that aren't racecars. The controversial Aztek and the equally-controversial 1996 Subaru SVX take their places beside a lineup that offers drivers three eras of performance cars – a 1967 Sunbeam Tiger, 1974 Toyota Corolla SR5, and 1992 Alfa Romeo Milano Quadrifoglio Verde. The video below shows all of them in action. Race to the Finish Line with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6 By Xbox Wire Staff posted on January 27, 2016 at 8:00 am With the racing season set to kick into full gear during this weekend's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona race, Forza fans now have a chance to get their own taste of endurance racing glory with the Alpinestars Car Pack for Forza Motorsport 6, available on Thursday, Jan. 28. Leading off the pack of seven cars is last year's 24 Hours of Daytona winner, the 2015 Ford #02 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley Mk XXVI Daytona Prototype. The prototype will be fielded in this weekend's race, which begins at 2 p.m. EST on Saturday, Jan. 30 and can be viewed live on Fox Sports 1 in the U.S. The Alpinestars Car Pack features six additional cars, each with a unique pedigree all its own. From the 1990 Mercury #15 Whistler Radar Cougar XR-7 – also a competitor in Daytona 24 Hour events of years past – to the inimitable 2005 Pontiac Aztek (famous more for its fictional owner than its performance), this pack has something for every kind of car fan. Forza Motorsport 6 is the only game where players can drive last year's Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona winner on the recently remodeled Daytona International Speedway.
