1969 Ford Torino Cobra
Q-Code 428 Cobra Jet
Original #'s Matching
You are viewing a very rare original 1969 Ford Cobra Q code. The car is verified with a deluxe Marti Report. The Q code VIN on dash, door data plate and registration all match. This car still retains its original 428 CJ motor and Traction-Lok rear axel. This car was an original 4 speed car, but the 4 speed was swapped for an automatic C6. Clutch pedal still in the car. Has staggered rear shocks and oil cooler. As you can tell, this car would benefit greatly with a good detail.
Motor has been completely rebuilt, solid lifter cam and roller rockers, motor runs great but still needs final valve adjustment. The C6 has also been rebuilt. Flowmaster Exhaust, Power 4 wheel disc brakes and new lines . The suspension has been rebuilt. Brand new BF Goodrich T/A Radials on original Cobra wheels, trim rings and caps are as new.
The body on this car is very straight and 99% rust free. The floors, trunk, frame rails, door bottoms, quarters, lower fenders are all nice. The car was repainted 1969 Fire Mist about 12 years ago and still looks good, there are some small chips here and there, no dents. Glass is nice, front bumper is nice, the rear bumper is solid with some of the chrome peeling, the rest of the chrome is nice.
The Interior looks beautiful, new seat covers and carpet, the door panels and dash are original and look like new.
Check out the pics and the deluxe Marti Report. This is an extremely rare top of the line Ford Muscle. You don't find to many of these Big Block Original Cobra's anymore. For a negotiated price I can add a Buy It Now which I can include a Ford 4 speed Top Loader, Bell Housing and Flywheel, pedals are still in the car.
Please call Tim (845)728-0428 or (845)728-6575 to discuss the car. Out of country bidders must call first. Car is available to view before auctions end. Can store inside for a reasonable time while you arrange shipping. Car is sold with a Transferable NYS Registration (NYS does not title cars prior to 1974).

Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva
Sun, 24 Feb 2013We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
