You are looking at a a J-code Shaker Equipped 429CJ Ram Air Torino Cobra project car. It is an ex-Drag car from New Jersey that has been sitting for many years!! This was a 1 owner Cobra that is a Real Red Exterior, Black Bucket Seat and Console car.

It was a local New Jersey Bracket racer at Englishtown Raceway and has many Class Winner Decals on the 1/4 window reflecting this.

This an ORIGINAL 1970 Torino Cobra and I have the Deluxe Marti Sheet on to document it's options and production numbers.

This Torino Cobra was originally equipped as follows:

429 Cobra Jet Ram Air Engine

C-6 Automatic Transmission

3.50 N-case 31 Spline 9 inch Rear

Red Exterior Paint

Black Knitted Vinyl Bucket Seat Interior

Shaker Hood

Console

Power Steering

Power Disc Brakes

F70-14 Raised White Letter Tires

AM Radio

Once it's racing days were over it was set out in the yard to languish for many years.

The body is pretty much complete as shown, but it is a RUSTY car!! Now I have seen worse cars than this one restored and better ones cut up. The good news on this one is at least this one has a decent pedigree. The Cobra Grille in the car while not perfect is actually in decent shape and is a VERY HIGH DOLLAR piece!

The interior is mostly original but is missing the original front seats and console. I do have a replacement air of 1970-1971 Torino/Cyclone Bucket Seat that I will include with the car. The original back seat and door panels in the car are in decent shape for their age. The dash and door panels still retain their original Cobra Emblems on them.

The good: it is a REAL J-code 429CJ Ram Air Cobra (38 body code) and comes with what I have been told is a 429CJ just not the original block to the car. I have not opened it up to see, but is does have D00E-R 429CJ Heads with CJ Aluminum Valve covers and a DOOE Iron CJ Intake manifold! I know nothing else about it and would assume it needs a complete overhaul. Car still has it's original 9 inch 31 Spline N-case rear end underneath it. It also comes with the 429CJ Shaker top assembly with an incorrect base.

The BAD: Car is a Rusty New Jersey car!! Been off the road a long time and is rusty or scaly all over the bottom side with a rusty rear driver frame rail.

The Original Transmission is missing.

I have the original New Jersey Title for this car from 1970.

Car does roll and the engine is laying in the engine bay for shipment.

If the winning bidder so desires I do have a rock solid 2 owner running factory Red 1970 Fairlane 500 from California that I bought to use as a parts car to restore the Cobra and while not a part of this auction I can make it available at a very reasonable extra cost. I will include a couple of pictures of the Fairlane to the bottom of this auction, but IT IS NOT A PART OF THIS AUCTIOn. This Auction is for the 1970 Ford Torino Cobra ONLY as described in the auction text above.

Please look at the pictures and ask any questions BEFORE you bid!! I want you to be sure of what you are bidding on and for us both to be satisfied with the Torino Cobra's described condition and its sale. I expect a deposit within 24 hours of auctions end and balance of payment within 7 days of auction end. This 1970 Ford Torino Cobra is a 44+ year old project car and as such is being auctioned 'as-is where-is' and 'as-described' with no warranties either expressed or implied. I have described this 1970 Torino Cobra project car accurately so please read the auction text and look at the pictures carefully to make sure this is what you want before bidding. If you are not sure please do not bid. I take my auctions seriously and so should you. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!!

RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.

Ford Fiesta ST GRC Racecar is hungry for podiums in 2013

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

As we reported earlier, the Chicago showing of this plucky Ford Fiesta ST GRC racer points to bigger and brighter days for Global RallyCross. For the upcoming season, you can expect to see Ken Block and Tanner Foust both driving the Ford racecar, and if last season's results are any indication, you can anticipate quite a few podium appearances, as well.
The Fiesta seen here was built by the Swedes at OlsbergsMSE, and will be driven in anger by Foust in 2013. Modifications are, as you'd expect, extensive, and include an engine, exhaust and braking upgrades, a racing style short-throw shifter and a limited-slip differential. As you can see, the car has been fully stripped out and caged for maximum speed and safety, too.
Refresh your memories with the details of the car, in the press releases below. And if you head out to the Chicago Auto Show this year, don't forget to drop by the Ford stand to have a look.

Pickup sales may hit 2M units for first time since 2007

Sat, 21 Sep 2013

Even as fuel prices creep back up, trucks are still a hot item among new-vehicle shoppers. To see how popular pickup trucks still are, you don't have to look any further than how much effort automakers put into the continual one-upmanship of their trucks. Backing this fact up, USA Today is reporting that the segment could top two million sales this year - a total not matched since 2007, though still far from the pre-recession, three-million-unit levels.
Through August, the Ford F-Series continues to be the segment leader with almost 500,000 units sold, but the Chevy Silverado (328,269), Ram 1500 (234,642), GMC Sierra (122,232) and Toyota Tacoma (110,293) are all seeing at least 20-percent sales increases, helping to account for around 1.44 million truck sales so far this year - not including possible outliers like the Suzuki Equator and Chevy Avalanche.
This year alone, General Motors has completely redesigned its fullsize trucks, Ram and Toyota have significantly updated their offerings, the next-gen Ford F-150 will be out next year and Nissan is promising an all-new Titan around the same time with an eventual Cummins diesel under the hood. It would seem, then, that truck sales are poised to continue their upward trend.
