1970 Ford Torino Rare, 4 Speed, Restored, Marti-report on 2040-cars

Up for sale is my 1970 Ford Torino.  It was just completely redone. Interior,exterior, drivetrain as good and in many cases better than new.  I am putting a down payment on a piece of property so it has to go.  It has a full Marti report that details just how rare it is. 

The engine was rebuilt with 2V heads for streatability bolted to the stock 1V intake.  The block was bored 30 over with TRW forged pistons and ARP rod bolts.  The cam is a Comp Cam 270 with matching springs, keepers and retainers.  Also hardened 5/16 pushrods, crane guide plates and steel roller tip rocker arms were installed.  It has new belts, new radiator hoses and a new 4 core radiator.  The 4 speed transmission was fully rebuilt and at that time a new pressure plate and clutch were installed. The brakes have been completely serviced.  The power steering pump was also rebuilt.

The exterior speaks for itself.  We went with grabber orange and satin black for the hood and rear stripes. They were professionally painted on not decals.  The paint job is flawless and not much body work had to happen as it was originally from the pacific northwest with 41000 actual miles and not rusty.  The under side of the car was also painted black.  The bumpers are brand new as are the wheels and tires.  I have most all receipts for the work and new parts. 

The carpet is new, seats professionally redone, new headliner,  new door panels all the gauges and lights work, etc.  We put new springs in the rear and new shocks in the front.  While we were at it we also lowered the car from stock a couple inches for the look and ride quality.  Then exhaust is custom Masterflow that crosses in an x pattern than tucks up nice neat and sounds awesome.

The car runs out and drives beautifully.  Im going to hate to see it go.  It doesn't have a radio.  It is wired up and has new speakers I just never got around to putting a radio in it.  There are two small pieces of chrome on the rear of the window that could use re chroming.  Those are really the only issues I can think of with the car.  You are basically buying a 100 % restored and completed muscle car ready for a show or to hit the streets as soon as you get it. 

Thanks for looking and feel free to call or email with any questions

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...

Ford recalling nearly 24,000 Focus EV and C-Max models over door chime

Fri, 04 Oct 2013

Ford will be voluntarily recalling 23,830 Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid and Energi models equipped with push-button ignition, according to The Detroit News. Why? Because the cars don't make a noise when the driver's door is open, and are therefore in violation of federal regulations. It's not as silly as Honda's badging recall that isn't a recall, but it's close.
Actually, that's not exactly fair. The chime is supposed to come on when the driver's door is open, as it reminds drivers not to leave their cars on or leave key fobs in the car, an easy thing to forget when the cars in question make virtually no noise at idle and do not require keys in ignitions.
The recall, which Ford is conducting voluntarily, covers 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric hatchbacks and 2013 C-Max Hybrid and Energi models. The overwhelming majority, around 22,900 units, were sold in the US, while the remaining 900 units are in Canada. How many of each model are covered in the recall is not immediately clear.

Honda giving away free Civics in Forza Horizon to celebrate launch

Wed, 16 Jan 2013

Just a friendly reminder from Honda: The Honda Challenge Pack DLC is now available for Forza Horizon. To reward you for the trouble of pressing a few buttons on your Xbox controller, you'll get the 2013 Honda Civic Coupe, an HPD Rally Fit and a 1986 Honda Civic Si Coupe in your garage, and you'll get them free. The event of the new DLC has also kicked off a photo contest that will reward someone with an Xbox 360 console wrapped in a Honda Civic Si theme.
Otherwise, the word "Challenge" keeps coming up because of the chance to run an online race against IndyCar driver Scott Dixon. The track for that digital throwdown has already been decided by Xbox players who voted before January 8. Yet it's not too late to hop into the Honda section in Xbox Live and lay down a time fast enough for a shot at the title "The Driver That Shellacked Scott Dixon," and meeting the man in person.
Check out the press release from Honda below, and the sweetness that is the 1986 Civic Si in the gallery above.
