1970 Ford Torino GT, 351C 4 barrel, 4 Speed!! All matching numbers!!!! The 351C is still all original and runs great!!! It is also a factory 4 barrel engine which is a little more rare!!! I have actually drove the car locally here, around the block etc...The 4 Speed is very slick and smooth with no problems at all!!!! Car is great shape overall!! Although the car does need minor work to be back road ready, including final touches over the brakes, some exhaust work, small patches on the front floor pans (VERY SMALL PATCHES, ONLY AT THE EDGE OF EACH SIDE NEAR THE ENTRY PLATES) and maybe a couple other little things here and there to get it to pass state inspection!?!? I just put new brakes on the front and new wheel cylinders front and rear last month, I just didn't finish adjusting everything completely!! The car has aftermaket exhaust including some type of glass pack mufflers and dual pipes...just believe it may have a leak here or there!? I was goin to put all new exhaust with twin flowmasters and dump them out behind the rear tires when I started working on the car but I just have too many projects and no time!! Of coarse if someone wanted a really nice car or even a show car this one would need more work!! I've only owned the car for about a year and a half...I had big plans for it since it was factory Cleveland 4 Speed!!! I was goin to restore the entire car from ground up, but like I said...I just have too much goin on, so honestly my loss is your gain!!! Id rather see it go to a good home instead of just sitting!!! I bought it from an elderly guy that has owned the car since the late 70's, he had to go into a nursing home due to illnesses!! He had the car painted and everything redone in 1995 but then had a heart attack later that year and the car had to sit out!! From there the car started to fade again and so on!! So the car is of coarse faded and in need of paint and body work, and also interior work!! As far as body work the car has a very small amount of rust in the lower rear quarter panels and maybe a little amount here and there around the lower portion of the other body panels!! Nothing serious enough to have to replace any body parts or panels!! The car other than that is very straight and very solid, absolutely no rust in the frame rails etc!!!! It will need a hood I believe...due to it being weak near the passenger hood hinge!! My plans were to put a shaker on it when I redone it!! The interior is in need of work also, both front bucket seats need recovered, needs a headliner, and new carpet!! Dash pad also has a few cracks in it!! All interior lights still work great along with the dash cluster lights etc!! All the glass in the car is complete and in very good shape!! Car is a hide away headlight car which is all still in contact, just not working due to someone having the vacuum lines unhooked!! Someone just opened the hide aways and left it as that! The Gt tail lights all work and are also in great shape!! Like I said the car is in really great shape and would only need a little love to be back a really hot muscle car cruising the strip!!! Especially being a 4 speed car!!!! When I bought the car I put a brand new battery in it, both new battery cables, new starter, new spark plugs and like I said earlier brakes and all new wheel cylinders!!! Would be a great low budget cruiser for someone or an awesome, solid start for a show car for someone wanting a little more than just a daily driver!!!! For any questions please feel free to give me a call anytime, my cell phone number is 1-540-430-3741, Thanks!!

'Car Wars' says Ford, Honda to pick up share, Fiat-Chrysler ambitions downplayed
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Don't look for a tremendous shifts in automotive market share over the next three years because it might not be coming. That's at least according to the annual Car Wars report by John Murphy, from Bank of America Merrill Lynch Global Research.
In the report's analysis of automakers' market share from 2013 to 2017, it predicts only small changes among the major companies. Ford and Honda see the biggest positive effect with an estimated 0.5 percent increase in their shares over the next three years; to 16.2 percent and 10.3 percent respectively. On the flip side, European automakers and Nissan are expected to lose 0.2 percent each to fall to 8.3 percent and 7.8 percent each respectively. The rest of the industry is predicted to hold steady as it is now.
The biggest loser in that prediction might be Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles. The report certainly throws a wet blanket on its plan for significant gains in market share. Murphy told The Detroit News that the company's goal was "almost unattainable."
'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.
