 This was my Fathers 1969 Ford Talladega project car, it has a clean title.  It is a rolling chassis, very solid with only small holes in the front bottom of the rear quarter panels and one hole in the trunk next to the fuel tank vent line in the rear corner, frame rail is NOT involved.  The car has subframe connectors installed but they could be removed.  The body is about 65% original Talladega with sections replaced and most if not all panels replaced show all spot welds in original locations.  NEW:  Front brake assembly's-----upper ball joints----fuel tank-----rear brakes and hardware---tires.   The car has the wrong interior installed but if you want to keep the 69 Torino buckets the extra cross member is in the car but will need to be welded in. I have the original Talladega window sills and rear panels and the DASH PAD is in good shape with no rips or splits, sorry I could not post a picture because I was only allowed 24 total.    Car comes with interior window trim and new headliner, most exterior trim, extra glass, NOS grille seal and clean Talladega paperwork. Car has original 31 spline 3:25 9 inch Nodular center rear axle installed. All glass is good in the car, windshield is not perfect but no cracks or chips. The engine compartment is very clean and painted.  NO MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION. 

I have access to the original type C6 automatic transmission for the car with "R" servo and cast iron tail shaft with torque converter.  It has been in storage since the 1980's and will only be available to the buyer of the car for an additional $1300.00.  The transmission is not for sale any other way, it is not mine but I have made an agreement with the owner and will need advanced notice if you want it so I can go and pick it up.

This car needs bodywork everywhere, was stripped mostly to bare metal and has a very light coat of primer on it just for storage.  Rolls fine and the Emergency brake is functional. NEEDS FULL RESTORATION.  Sold AS IS where it is. I WILL NOT SHIP, payment is cash on pick up withing 7 days of end of auction.  I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells locally for a much higher price than opening bid.  

Note:  The big block engine mounts are in the car.  I have both outside sports mirrors.  The oil cooler mounts are there, no oil cooler, lower bracket has been repaired. I have the correct front coil springs.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013



That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.
