For your consideration is a super rare muscle car that happens to be a Torino. 1968 1/2 Ford Torino GT Fastback
Cobra Jet, 1 of 660, back in 1968, today? 1 of ??? remaining. She is was delivered to the famous west coast "Galpin
Ford Dealer", special ordered by the owner as a showroom floor center piece. This was the only 1968 1/2 Torino GT
Fastback Cobra Jet inspired model to be ordered and sold at Galpin Ford, order type (see Marti Report) was "Basic
Off-Standard Equipment" Marti Auto-works describes this as...."It means Ford ordered and built this car without
someone having pre-ordering it" that is the (basic part), but they (Galpin Ford) put options on that were not very
common (that's the Off-Standard Part), such as 428CJ, 3.91 Traction-Lok Axle Ratio).
The Torino has all of its original paperwork, and when I say all of it, I mean all of it, you name it she has it
including copies of canceled checks for deposit purposes, temporary owners card as well as the dealer mailed owners
card sent to the buyer, original window sticker, Dealer IOU, Dealer Security agreement, Original owners manual and
pocket protector

Ford owns Automotive Loyalty Awards, Audi and Subaru are king of conquests
Thu, 23 Jan 2014 18:32:00 ESTCustomers are a commodity in the automotive industry, and like any other commodity, automakers trade them back and forth. Only nobody wants to give up their customers - just to keep the ones they have and try to attract others.
That's what the Polk Automotive Loyalty Awards are all about. Every year the industry research body names the automakers, brands and models that manage to keep their customers coming back for more - and attract buyers to switch from other makes. Ford usually does pretty well, but this year it rose above even its own track record.
Not only did Dearborn win the Overall Loyalty to Manufacturer award, but also the Overall Loyalty to Make. Ford also took the African American category, and the F-150 was named the top full-size half-ton pickup in customer loyalty. Ford COO Mark Fields (pictured above) accepted the awards and gave the keynote address at the awards ceremony.
Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]
Wed, 05 Jun 2013 09:00:00 ESTFor the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.
Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit
Tue, 14 Jan 2014 17:28:00 ESTFord has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.
