1968 Ford Torino Gt Fastback Stock And Sweet!! Pristine! Original, Very Nice** on 2040-cars
Garden City, Idaho, United States
|
Here you have an incredible and original classic 1968 Ford Torino GT Fastback. This car has been freshened up with new base/clearcoat paint in the original Gulfstream Aqua Color that looks fantastic! Great color and trim combination. It retains the original interior in GREAT SHAPE and original carpet in fabulous condition. The rear hat shelf in the rear window has been refurbished and new tires installed. The car has new upper and lower ball joints, new radius/control arm bushings, tie rod ends, upper and lower control arm bushings, new lower control arms, and new sway bar bushings and retainers. Drives and tracks incredibly well. The 302 V8 runs and powers the car very well and feels every bit as spunky as a 351 that I drove. The A/C is Factory but is not hooked up. This car is in the dry Northwest and as the pictures show, the bottom of the car is nice and dry showing the factory red oxide primer still. No undercoating covering the bottom of the car. The car was purchased from the son of the gentleman that put on all but a few of the miles on the car before he passed. Original documentation as shown in the pictures of owner's manual, warranty info, selling dealer info, and registration/title application. I took and posted a lot of pictures to show how nice this car is and to hopefully answer most of your questions. If you have questions, just send them through and I will do my best to answer them. The car still has the original AM Radio in the dash (not sure about the dash speaker). The dash has no cracks or heaves. Gauges and instruments read fine. Lights all work fine. Wipers work well. The trunk is rust free and has not only the new liner but also retains the felt liner that was in the car. Has a new fuel tank, new heater core, heater hoses, cooling hoses, and new spare tire hold down. New plugs, new plug wires. New fuel filter. Has four wheel drum brakes that are power booster assisted. Could use new door felts and all the glass is nice in this car. This is a nice honest, clean and stock Torino Fastback GT that has not been hot rodded or modified. A true Classic to enjoy and drive and would do very good at show and shines or local car shows. Not too many like this left !! Not the usual Ebay car. Priced fairly for what it is. Try to find one like it?! Don't miss out on this one! Thanks for looking. |

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room
Fri, 08 Mar 2013A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.
