Up for auction I have this very restorable 1969 Ford Torino GT formal roof. I purchased this car over 20 years ago with the intent to restore it, but things got away from me. When I bought it I drove it home, but the engine is now stuck from sitting.
This is a Q code 428 Cobra Jet 4 speed car with power disc brakes. There are a few things missing from the engine, including the rocker arm assemblies and carburetor. The car has headers instead of stock cast exhaust manifolds. The interior needs restoration. There is rust in a few places, including the driver's side torque box, bottom corners of both doors, and along the bottom of the trunk lid. A $500 deposit, via Paypal, is required within two (2) days of the auction's close. The remaining balance will be due at time of pick up and the vehicle must be paid in full before the buyer can take possession. I will only accept CASH for the remaining balance. Buyer is responsible for pick up/shipping of the vehicle. Please look carefully at all pictures in the listing and ask if there's anything else you'd like to see. Message on here or call (540) 325-0534 with any questions. Please be sure before placing a bid. Thanks for looking and happy bidding! *Just a note, this is one of my personal vehicles, but the title is in my business name. |

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a lean, mean, Z/28-fighting machine [w/video]
Mon, 17 Nov 2014If there's one thing you can count on, it's that the renewed rivalry between the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro will never, ever cease. For every version of Ford's pony car, there's an equally potent Chevrolet. And so with the debut of the Camaro Z/28 earlier this year, Ford has responded with a track-focused 'Stang of its own, resurrecting the Shelby GT350 name.
It looks to be a fine piece of work, this Mustang, with power coming from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V8 that will produce "more than 500 horsepower" and "above 400" pound-feet of torque. That grunt runs to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, and a Torsen limited-slip differential keeps everything in line.
But that's hardly the most impressive piece of the GT350 puzzle. Ford has increased the Mustang GT's chassis stiffness for duty here in the Shelby, and the coupe employs MagneRide damping which automatically adjusts based on road conditions and driver inputs. It's a first both for the Blue Oval and for the segment. And speaking of firsts, the GT350 uses a flat-plane crankshaft - something Ford has never included in a production V8 before.
Ford S-Max Concept previews new look, technology for Euro seven-seater
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Ford unveiled today the S-Max Concept, which comes with a new, sleek look and loaded with innovative technology, such as a heart-rate monitoring seat. But if you're heart is set on a minivan sports activity vehicle (SAV) and you live in the States, don't wait for this one - it's a Europe-only product, and we don't expect that to change when the next-gen S-Max is released.
The styling follows Ford's global design language, looking a bit like an overgrown Focus hatchback with the company's signature grille, wraparound headlamps, steeply raked windshield and curved roof line. Ford also implemented details to make the S-Max look longer and faster, such as a feature line on each side of the vehicle and muscular-looking fenders. The engine isn't Ford's most powerful, but the new 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine should be potent enough with turbocharging and other efficiency related technologies.
Ford says the new interior, which seats up to seven people, features high-quality materials and fine detailing, such as an "ultra-soft" leather wrap for the instrument panel and leather and carbon-fiber details on the seats. Ford's Sync connectivity system with MyFord Touch makes the car a wireless hotspot, and there's a tablet docking station for second-row occupants.
