1970 Ford Torino GT, 351C 4 barrel, 4 Speed!! All matching numbers!!!! The 351C is still all original and runs great!!! It is also a factory 4 barrel engine which is a little more rare!!! I have actually drove the car locally here, around the block etc...The 4 Speed is very slick and smooth with no problems at all!!!! Car is great shape overall!! Although the car does need minor work to be back road ready, including final touches over the brakes, some exhaust work, small patches on the front floor pans (VERY SMALL PATCHES, ONLY AT THE EDGE OF EACH SIDE NEAR THE ENTRY PLATES) and maybe a couple other little things here and there to get it to pass state inspection!?!? I just put new brakes on the front and new wheel cylinders front and rear last month, I just didn't finish adjusting everything completely!! The car has aftermaket exhaust including some type of glass pack mufflers and dual pipes...just believe it may have a leak here or there!? I was goin to put all new exhaust with twin flowmasters and dump them out behind the rear tires when I started working on the car but I just have too many projects and no time!! Of coarse if someone wanted a really nice car or even a show car this one would need more work!! I've only owned the car for about a year and a half...I had big plans for it since it was factory Cleveland 4 Speed!!! I was goin to restore the entire car from ground up, but like I said...I just have too much goin on, so honestly my loss is your gain!!! Id rather see it go to a good home instead of just sitting!!! I bought it from an elderly guy that has owned the car since the late 70's, he had to go into a nursing home due to illnesses!! He had the car painted and everything redone in 1995 but then had a heart attack later that year and the car had to sit out!! From there the car started to fade again and so on!! So the car is of coarse faded and in need of paint and body work, and also interior work!! As far as body work the car has a very small amount of rust in the lower rear quarter panels and maybe a little amount here and there around the lower portion of the other body panels!! Nothing serious enough to have to replace any body parts or panels!! The car other than that is very straight and very solid, absolutely no rust in the frame rails etc!!!! It will need a hood I believe...due to it being weak near the passenger hood hinge!! My plans were to put a shaker on it when I redone it!! The interior is in need of work also, both front bucket seats need recovered, needs a headliner, and new carpet!! Dash pad also has a few cracks in it!! All interior lights still work great along with the dash cluster lights etc!! All the glass in the car is complete and in very good shape!! Car is a hide away headlight car which is all still in contact, just not working due to someone having the vacuum lines unhooked!! Someone just opened the hide aways and left it as that! The Gt tail lights all work and are also in great shape!! Like I said the car is in really great shape and would only need a little love to be back a really hot muscle car cruising the strip!!! Especially being a 4 speed car!!!! When I bought the car I put a brand new battery in it, both new battery cables, new starter, new spark plugs and like I said earlier brakes and all new wheel cylinders!!! Would be a great low budget cruiser for someone or an awesome, solid start for a show car for someone wanting a little more than just a daily driver!!!! For any questions please feel free to give me a call anytime, my cell phone number is 1-540-430-3741, Thanks!!

Ford unveils its facelifted Falcon finale with new XR8
Thu, 24 Jul 2014While its days may be numbered, Ford isn't just going to let its Falcon sedan limp out for the Australian market. No, the Blue Oval is releasing a refreshed Falcon for its final years, and it's lead by this, the new XR8. That's right, this dead-car-driving is going to go out on a high note.
Ford's global design DNA dominates the looks of the new Falcon, with a grille reminiscent of the US market Fusion and the European-market Mondeo. The headlights aren't a straight port, and boast their own unique LED running light pattern (at least on the XR8), but the overall look is strikingly similar. Out back, LED taillights highlight the rear of the Faclon. Despite the substantial new fascia, this is still a mid-cycle refresh. That means most of the rest of the Falcon's body panels are carryovers from the current model.
The XR8 model, shown above, arrives with a supercharged V8, allegedly displacing 5.0 liters. Unfortunately, details on the Falcon's mechanicals are in remarkably short supply. Ford has committed to a range of turbocharged four, as well as turbocharged and naturally aspirated six-cylinders, in addition to the V8, although specifics on those mills aren't available.
Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]
Fri, 12 Apr 2013The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.
Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
