1973 Gran Torino Sport Fastback. 351C 4V Q code, C6 Transmission, 9 inch rear.

Mileage on the odometer (18176) does not reflect actual mileage, it has probably rolled over at least once.

I purchased this car in 3/2009 from the first owner. The car comes with the original window sticker and owner's manual. Included are the body side moldings, original radio, and the five Magnum 500 rims, (four with old tires on them) and the fifth is in the trunk with a new spare on it. There is also a Procar Pro 90 seat and mounting brackets for two seats still in boxes and a B&M Transpak.

Some of the parts replaced since purchase include:

  • rear brake shoes and rear wheel cylinders
  • radius arm bushing
  • sway bar link kits
  • correct windshield with dark band on bottom
  • seat belts (changed to retractable style in front)
  • headliner
  • carpet
  • steering wheel (Grant)
  • rubber seals for doors, windows, trunk, cowl, rear window
  • window felts
  • stereo and speakers
  • Edelbrock Air Gap manifold
  • Holley 670 Street Avenger
  • Ford Racing chrome valve covers
  • starter
  • fuel sending unit
  • fuel pump
  • rims and tires (BF Goodrich T/A's)
  • A/C compressor and drier (Freon changed to R134-A, needs more work and comes with additional new parts to be installed)
  • front and rear bumpers rechromed by Goodmark  

This is not a full restoration show car; it was intended to be a solid daily driver. The car runs well, needs minor work with the A/C, fan and wiper controls. It needs paint work and the seats need recovering.

If you just want a fun, reliable older car or a great starting point for a full restoration, this is it.

This vehicle is being sold as-Is with No Warranty Expressed or Implied.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.

Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
