1972 Ford Gran Torino Sport
400 Cubic Inch 6.6L engine. 

Almost everything on this car is new as of the past year and a half (over 32K invested), and I have paperwork/documentation for everything. This car needs nothing. It's not a show car, but a very nice, and reliable driver. Perfect for long road trips or getting groceries. Just repainted in the original color (Medium Yellow).

Original 400 motor (Rebuilt) Converted from 2 to 4-barrel. New carburetor, intake, cam, timing chain kit, and pushrods (All Edelbrock) New radiator, starter, and alternator. Disk brakes in front/Drums in the rear. (New Master cylinder, and brake calipers) Almost everything under the hood has been restored/replaced. Too much to list off the top of my head, but I'm happy to answer any questions.

(I still have the original intake and 2 barrel carb if you wanted to revert back to it's original set up.) 

C6 Three speed automatic transmission. (Rebuilt last year) Shifts perfectly. 

Working heat and AC. (Converted from R12 to R134A) Power windows (New window motors). New rear air shocks, and tires. Ride is incredibly smooth especially for a muscle car. 

Interior is almost perfect. Seats have been reupholstered/re-stuffed to match original. Headliner is new. Shoulder strap seatbelts have been installed. All gages and lights work. Great sound system installed under dash so the original radio is still in place. Has a smart phone connection so you can listen to mp3's/GPS etc. Carpet is original. Looks decent, but is torn underneath the driver side floor mat. 

Body is rust free with the exception of some bubbling under the vinyl roof. Which is common with vinyl tops, but the roof is solid. Exhaust was converted from single to duel by the previous owner. Sounds incredible, but pipes have some rust. 

This is the same model car from the Clint Eastwood movie "Gran Torino", and its value has been increasing steadily since the movie came out. This actual car is also in a movie that is scheduled to release this year called "79 Parts". Check it out on IMDB. 


Thanks,
John

Ford Escort testing, may be bound for Europe

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

There has been little news about Ford's China-focused Escort concept since debuting at last year's Shanghai Motor Show, but the no-frills sedan has shown its camouflaged face again during cold weather testing in Northern Sweden. While far from a guarantee, the test location might hint that the Blue Oval plans to market the car outside of Asia.
The Escort's black robe and zebra paint make it hard to tell if anything specific has changed about the design, but the shape of the sedan looks close to what was shown in Shanghai. Under the disguise, you can still make out the hexagonal front grille from the concept. When Ford announced the model, the company said that the design wasn't supposed to be "arrogant or pretentious," and it certainly achieved that. The engine range is still a mystery, but it seems safe to expect small, economy-focused powertrains.
A report from last year indicated that Ford may be considering broadening the new Escort beyond Asia and possibly even selling it in Europe. The fact that the company brought it to Sweden for testing could bolster that argument. A release date hasn't been set yet, but the automaker has promised 15 new products for China by 2015. The basic sedan could be on the road soon.

Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.

Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
