1974 Ford Gran Torino 4 Door No Smog Required! Local Pickup Only!! on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
|
NO SMOG REQUIRED! LOCAL PICKUP ONLY!! Just registered it this month but ran into a snag. So at least registration shouldn't cost you very much. Runs and all and is road ready. Is in relatively decent shape. No big dents or anything. Bought it off my cousin (used to belong to my uncle) a little less than a year ago thinking I would have time for a project, but turns out I don't. Has a 400, V8 that was rebuilt a couple years before I got it so maybe a few thousand miles on it or so. Mileage listed isn't correct, obviously. Odometer no longer works. C-4 or C-6 auto trans, I think, Crager rims w/ wheel locks, and I still have the key. I did a bunch of the steering linkage, re did some interior stuff (there's a pic of the gauge bezel I re-did), changed out all the locks, got new visor pins, had the carb. gone through by S.D. carb., replaced the rear drivers side tail lens, still have the original grille, changed the oil, etc. I swapped the seat tracks in the front, as well. The driver side was powered but the motor seized so its manual now. All the power windows still work but one gets a little sticky. It runs well but it does need some work. Could use new paint and headliner, new windshield gasket, weatherstripping, the kill switch in it needs to be replaced, there is no radio but some pretty decent speakers in the back. Definitely needs a brake booster and a steering gearbox. Both will run you around $100. I have receipts for everything I've done. It really sounds awesome when you fire it up, too. I frequently run the engine for about 15 mins at a time to keep things flowing. Doesn't get driven too much. I can send more pics upon request. Serious only, please. Thanks.

Long winter means most automakers won't curb summer shutdown
Sun, 18 May 2014A lot more happened during this latest brutal winter than days of snow and Netflix binges. Automotive sales took a battering. After all, going out car shopping when it's eleventy-billion degrees below zero isn't a good time.
Because of this Old Man Winter-induced sales slump, inventories are abnormally high as we head into the summer car buying season. That's led some analysts to predict that automakers will be more inclined to idle factories this summer, in a bid to trim some of the built-up inventory. Traditionally, American manufacturers offer up a two-week break in the middle of summer, although the burgeoning sales of the past few years have seen this practice become less popular.
"We're likely not going to see an acceleration this year," Jeff Schuster, a senior vice president at LMC Automotive, told The Detroit News. "We'll see production increases in 'pockets' but I don't know if it will be as widespread as in recent years."
2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost
Wed, 19 Nov 2014
A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.
2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
