 1971 Torino Cobra in the rare Silver(Light Pewter) with Vermillion(Red) interior. There were only 21 Cobras made with this color combo and it is stunning! This car is very well optioned with a 351C 4V engine, C6 automatic transmission, Shaker ram air, p/s, pdb, bucket seats, console, factory tachometer(works great) and 15" magnum wheels, all original! This car is very close to being absolutely stock, the only thing I know that is incorrect is the carburetor and distributor. The car still has the original Shaker hold down bracket, the original heat shield is still on the exhaust manifold. The car has had one repaint and the color is slightly off from the door jamb, the jamb is still has the original paint, the door sticker still looks new also. The body has only very minor rust, the floors look very solid as does the trunk. The lower qtr panels have some very minor pinholes showing and some of the door corners(see pics), all very minor. I have been driving this car daily and I love it, this car has not been screwed with and drives very tight and quiet. The engine and trans are very clean and look to have been worked on not many miles ago. The engine does have some typical Cleveland valve train noise but it is not really loud and hard to notice when driving the car. I have put several hundred miles on the car and it has not used any oil. The transmission has obviously received some work as it shifts nice and firm, anything over about 1/2 throttle and you are going to chirp the tire into second! The doors on this car open and shut very well, also there is no cracking around the door latches like you typically see on the these cars. The interior is quite presentable for an original but does have a crack in the dash pad like normal, the headliner will need to be replaced also. The front seats will need a few panels repaired but since the original comfort weave material is nice that is all I would do. The seams came apart on three of the lowers and there is a tear next to your left lower back. The rear seat is quite nice. The paint, while presentable for a driver is not perfect, it is a 10 footer with some bumps and scratches from normal use. I like it like this as it is a guilt free driver. If you have any questions and are a serious buyer give me a call at 425-308-0802 and we can discuss the car in detail.

Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.

Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.

Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.
