How would you like to drive around in a car that will get stares and “Thumbs Up” from all ages?  Do you like get a real bargain? Maybe even a steal. 

 

Well here is your chance.  58 years old and still going strong. 

 

This vehicle was given to me by my father prior to his passing in 2008.  He purchased the vehicle from a local collector in 2003.  It always won a trophy when we entered it into a local care show in the Richmond VA area.

 

Why am I selling it?  Good question.  This is a wonderful car, but not what I ultimately want.  My father had 3 antique cars and this is the one he gave me.   I presently don’t have the time to drive it as much as I would like.  Doesn’t do anyone any good just sitting in a garage. 

 

NOTE: I am not interested in a vehicle trade.

 

What I know about the vehicle…

 

·         Partially restored (75-80%) in early 2000 by a local collector.

·         Garage kept

·         Interior

o   Carpet shows normal wear, must not have been included in the restoration.

o   Seats are clean, no rips or tears.

·         Exterior

o   Clean paint job

o   Normal paint nicks from usage

·         Engine/Transmission

o   V8: Not sure if it is a 292 or 312

o   Runs great

o   Will occasionally come out of second gear if not under power. But how often will you stay in Second.

o   Three-speed on the floor.

·         Overall

o   Considered a “30 Footer”.

o   Will chirp the tires in all three gears.

o   Hard top convertible.

o   Continental kit.

o   Fender Skirts

o   Speedometer is not hooked up.

o   Mileage shows mostly Zeros. Not sure of actual mileage.

 

According to NADAGuides, this vehicle price range is:

                Low Retail:          $35,000

                Mid Retail:          $52,000

 

Even though it has a few minor issues, in my opinion the car easily exceeds the guidelines of a Low Retail car.

 

If you want more pictures or specific details, please do not hesitate to post a question.  I will answer your question as soon as possible and to the best of my ability.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best

Tue, May 3 2016

Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.

Ford Mustang GT350 seen and heard in motion for the first time

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

We just recently saw our first spy shots of the next-gen hi-po Ford Mustang slated to replace the Shelby GT500, but now we're getting our first look - and listen - of prototypes captured on video. Mustang6g.com has the video (along with some different spy shots), which show that, if nothing else, SVT knows how to tune an exhaust system. The :50 mark is a good example of this, but fast-forward to around 2:00 where the driver revs the engine and really gets on the throttle hard taking off from a stop.
There's still no definitive evidence that the next-gen SVT Mustang - said to be called GT350 - will be naturally aspirated, but it sounds just as menacing as the current Shelby GT500. While the video posted below exhibits the sort of quality that is to be expected from someone driving while trying to film someone who is attempting to elude being filmed, it's still exciting to see and hear this new Mustang in motion.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.
