1971 Ford Torino 500 5.0l on 2040-cars

Year:1971 Mileage:23842
Location:

Here is your chance to own a beautiful 1971 Ford Torino 500 2 door hardtop numbers matching car with only 23,842 original miles..... This car is litterally a beautiful car with minimal milage. The only changes to the car were the addition of dual exhaust a tachometer, clock, and an FM converter, as well as the installation of a battery tender on the inside fender well. This is the original paint,original trim original everything actually ( newer Rubber on rims). It has the 5 liter 302 2v with automatic trans on the column, interior is perfect and very sweet with minor seat stitching pulling a little on the driver side as you can note from the photos. We've had quite a bit of crappy weather this winter, but I was able to get the car pulled out of the garage last week on a sunny ( but cold ) day to take these photos. Hopefully this week I can get it out a little farther to take some better, more detailed photos, but the lawn is pretty saturated from all of the snow melting, and I really do not want to get it on the lawn to get the tires all muddy.
The lines of this car as you can note are very straight and factory correct, all of the chrome, badging and top are correct and very clean.
The motor and trans/& rear leaks no oil, neither does it burn oil. This car runs GREAT, sounds great, and turns heads for sure. Tires, rims, caps and shrouds are all color correct and matching to this particular car, this is factory paint guys, really really nice yet. The trunk has the correct original jack, stand and lug wrench, as well as a new liner, however I am thinking that it is not the factory correct trunk liner. 
This is truly an "UNMOLESTED" car with low low milage, so if your in the market for something nice and original, you've found it. 
I am moving next week and expect to have some delays in getting the internet up and running again due to being overly busy at work, for those of you who want to reply through e-bay, bare with me as I will be working from my i-phone... Those who prefer a more direct contact, just feel free to call me at: 484-239-9564  ( Scott ) If I do not pick up your call, it is because I am a concreter contractor and more than likely on equipment or pouring concrete, just leave a message and I will get back to you promptly. thanks, and good luck bidding.

2015 Ford Mustang potentially 'leaked' by Car and Driver

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Few upcoming debuts have been as eagerly anticipated as the all-new Ford Mustang that's expected to debut shortly as the Mustang's 50th anniversary year approaches. Well, Car and Driver magazine would have us wait no longer as it claims to be leaking Ford's new global pony car early.
Of course what you're looking at is just as likely to be a composite rendering based on what C/D projects the new Mustang to look like, but to our eyes it looks spot on. Combining design traits from the Evos Concept with classic Mustang signatures and Ford's Aston-inspired grille treatment, C/D's images - including a complete 360-degree digital navigator - show a Mustang not only for the modern era, but also for global distribution, taking a quintessentially American car to markets its predecessors were never designed for.
Those global considerations are expected to spell the demise of the outgoing Mustang's holdout live rear axle in favor of an independent suspension, and a slight constricting of the exterior dimensions. And thanks to a separate leak, coming from a digital survey, we have apparent confirmation of what will power the new pony car. While the existing 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engines will apparently carry over with only slight adjustments in output, the survey confirms a new 2.4-liter turbo four will be positioned in between them, offering slightly more power than the V6 but markedly improved fuel economy for a manageable $560 premium over base.

Ford turns Navistar from truck business customer to rival

Mon, 19 May 2014

There is a showdown brewing in the medium-duty truck segment next year as Ford prepares to launch its all-new, in-house engineered 2016 F-650 and F-750. It finally marks the end of the Blue Diamond joint venture between Ford and Navistar and, making the two entities direct competitors instead of partners.
Ford announced the end of the joint venture in an investor report in 2011, but it didn't reveal the new F-650 and F-750 until the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN, in March. Unlike the current, Mexican-built models, the new generation will be built in Avon Lake, OH, starting in mid-2015.
The challenge from Ford comes during a rough patch for Navistar. The company had a $248 million loss in the first quarter, according to The Wall Street Journal, and its medium-duty truck market share is currently down to 26 percent, from 36 percent in 2011. Building the previous-generation Fords brought in about $400 million a year to Navistar, according to the WSJ. To take on its former partner, Navistar plans to offer its International brand of medium-duty vehicles with more engine and transmission options to customers. It even struck a deal with Cummins to put its diesels in some of the models.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST priced from $21,400* [w/poll]

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

The 2014 model year brings a whole host of changes to Ford's Fiesta B-Segment fighter, the most important of which (to our enthusiast eyes, anyway) is the addition of a potent new ST model. The US-spec hot hatch was first shown at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show last November, and thanks to Ford's build-and-price site, we've now learned that the Fiesta ST will slide in at $21,400 when it goes on sale later this year (*not including $795 for destination).
Under the hood of the ST is a turbocharged 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline-four good for 197 horsepower and 214 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed manual transmission. Ford hasn't released performance data on its pint-sized puncher just yet, but know that these numbers make the Fiesta ST ever-so-slightly more powerful than the larger Volkswagen GTI while returning an estimated 34 miles per gallon on the highway.
Elsewhere in the lineup, the standard Fiesta also gets a smattering of improvements for the 2014 model year, including a new 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine and revised exterior styling. Pricing for the 2014 Fiesta sedan starts at $14,000, with the five-door model adding $600 to that number (again excluding the $795 destination fee).
