The winning bidder will receive :
A beautiful 1971 Ford Torino 500 2dr. with less than 15,000 actual miles and personally autographed by Jack Roush. This trophy winning Ford is a garage kept, rust free, turn key, ready to show and go looker with plenty of documentation including original window sticker, mileage statement, and original purchase order from The Moberly Motor Company in Missouri. This original wimbledon white ford comes with a fully detailed 302 V8, automatic, dual exhaust, factory 15" Magnum 500 Rally wheels and BF Goodrich white letters, perfect trim and chrome, an immaculent trunk area and original spare and jack, and detailed undercarriage. Blue vinyl top is original and like new. Blue interiot is all original and like new. Runs, drives and sounds great!
Note: This is "not" a wreck or rebuild! This car was bought new by a lady in 1971. It was left to her niece when she passed away at 91 years of age. Her niece kept the car in her heated and insulated garage until I purchased it. The niece verified that her "Aunt Flossie" drove this car 1/2 mile to town and 1/2 mile home everyday for 30 years. I did have it repainted the original wimbledon white in a base coat, clear coat to give it a nice deep shine. There are no dings, dents, and very, very little visible wear to the naked eye. Jack Roush personally autographed the dash for me and a framed picture comes with it. You'll also recieve with this car a personally autographed by Brian Keselowski Torino replica diecast, and a gold-chrome Talledega Torino #43 diecast, personally autographed by "The King" Richard Petty with picture of them signing. There is a small lien on this car that we will satisfy before taking possession.
Included with this car, you will receive an actual one-of-a-kind, impossible to find Martinsville Grandfather Clock Trophy won by Morgan Shepherd at Martinsville Speedway in 1979. This was given to me as a gift by Morgan Shepherd personally. With his blessing, I'm including it with this package. This is a highly coveted trophy by NASCAR drivers that stands 78" tall and 16 1/2" wide with a race winner plate and personally autographed by Morgan Shepherd. The Martinsville race has given Ridgeway grandfather clocks as trophies since 1964 and this one is an actual Gravely Furniture Company made clock. Today's clocks are made in Michigan by The Howard Miller Company. You cannot find or buy these anywhere. You can own a piece of NASCAR history that is a must have for the serious collector and can actually be more valuable than the Torino. This clock is in cherry wood finish and perfect operating condition. Morgan won this trophy clock in the Late Model Sportsman Series(now known as the Nationwide Series) the year before he won the 1980 championship.
You will also recieve a custom built Golf-Cart with graphic design of Brian Keselowski's #52 Wreaths Across America 2013 Daytona 500 race car with your company name included and personally autographed by Brian Keselowski.
Also included in this package is a season long honorary TruckerFan.com team associate sponsorship including two(2) guest passes to all Camping World Truck Series events on the 2013 schedule and any race event that rian Keselowski may be entered into the Sprint Cup Series. These passes can be offered to family, friends, employees, co-workers, company management, or clients. Your name or company name or even that special tribute will be on the race car as an associate sponsor and included on our Truckerfan.com team website throughout the year as a sponsor for additional advertisement. In the pit-area, you'll hang out with our sponsored team, meet other teams and drivers up close for pictures, autographs, and a memorable experience that lasts a lifetime and all for a great cause!
There is a reserve on this package. Our hopes is to raise enough funding to continue the Wreaths Across America awareness through our race teams and our fundriasing efforts. To feel more comfortable before you bid, you may contact our company our company at www.truckerfan.com for more information, details and additional photos. Shipping of your winning bid can also be arranged.
Thank you for your bid!

Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.
