1971 Torino Station Wagon Original Unrestored Mustang Cougar Cyclone Ranchero on 2040-cars

Year:1971 Mileage:40000

Monroe, Michigan, United States

 1971 Torino Station Wagon. 40000 original miles. This car is rust free! And in all original condition! When is the last time you even saw one, let alone in this condition! Don't get me wrong, there are a few imperfections. There are a couple of dings and small dents on the car. And there are some paint touch ups, but after all, it's 43 years old! The paint was pretty dull, so I took it over to a professional detailer, and it really came out pretty darn nice!

The car runs and drives great! (well I mean for a 43 year old car). It has the 250 straight six with a C-4 Automatic. And a 9" (station wagons got the 9" rearend as standard equipment) with 3:00 gears. (car gets great gas mileage).

The interior is in very nice condition. No rips or tears in the seats, a couple of small holes in the headliner. The dash pad has one small spot on it. The rear cargo area is very nice, usually wagons were beat up back there. It doesn't have the third row seats. Everything works too! Radio, lights, turn signals, horn, etc. (I put in all new LED bulbs in the dash board lights). Car also has the rubber flooring and not carpet.

I have never found any rust on this car. Typical to Station wagons, usually the tailgates are rotted out, not this car! (see pic's). Also the spare tire storage area's are usually rotted, but not on this car!

The rear power window only works from the inside, and it needs someone to help it up and down while someone runs the switch. The rear key switch on the rear door handle doesn't work at all.

Car comes with the original 14" wheels and hubcaps with brand new tires. Also included are 15" Magnum 500's (tires really should be replaced)

All options are listed on the Marti Report, and everything matches to the car.

I recently showed the car at the Fairlane National's and it took a 3rd place in the 1971 Torino Class!

You are more than welcome to come and inspect the car, or have someone else look at it, and I highly recommend it. I have sold cars on ebay in the past, and have had no complaints.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of things, so if you have any questions, please call Ron @ 734 735 2260. I prefer calls or text, as I don't always check my email

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.

180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains

Wed, 21 May 2014

If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.

2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
