1969 Torino GT. Let me start by saying that this car has a Talladega front end on it BUT IT IS NOT A TALLADEGA. It is a GT. I bought this car as a roller a few years back. I had it soda blasted down to bare Metal, all rust (there was not much) was repaired correctly and had it painted Presidential Blue. The frame and underside was already done by the previous owner. I had a 351W - 4V (300HP) engine/heads professionally rebuilt and stuck a new Holley Carb on it. I put in a brand new clutch and matched it up with the correct 1969 wide ratio 4 speed top-loader trans. I put a new Hurst shifter on it too. The car already had a 9" Detroit Locker rear end with Ford racing disk brake conversion, this car has disc brakes all the way around. I put new air shocks and also new front shocks. It appeared that all of the front end was new from previous owner so I left it as is. It has power steering and power Brakes. (No Air Conditioning). This car runs very well down the road and has plenty of power too. The interior is mostly brand new, new headliner, fairlane door panels (Used on the Talladega model), carpet, etc. I bought a fairlane back seat and had the bucket seats re-done with fairlane material to match. Although Talladega model did not offer buckets, I thought I would at least match the materials used. Everything works, lights, heater, AM radio, Etc. I also installed a new gas tank, new brake lines, had the front and rear bumper re-chromed, had the sail Panel emblems and rear window trim re-chromed also. I bought the correct wheels and had them blasted down and painted and bought new trim rings and new Bf Goodrich Radial T/A tires. Most Everything on this car is new. I have put about 100 miles on it since completing. $1,000.00 down payment required within 48 Hours of end of auction. Balance Due within 10 days of end of auction. The car will not be released until funds have cleared the bank. Questions call Tom 608-212-9011 ( I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally)

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.
Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines
Mon, 27 May 2013Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.
UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
