1976 Gran Torino Starsky and Hutch tribute car all original numbers matching car. 351 engine & FMX trans in great running condition. I have had 3 professional mechanics that all have agreed that they believe the mileage to be accurate but because of the age of the car that can't be guaranteed. The car runs and drives great. Very nice ride. New Replaced items include wheels and tires, frt and rear brakes, front shocks and rear air shocks, radiator, battery, plugs and wires,steering gear box, rag joint, carpet, headliner, sail panels and rear speaker deck panel. paint is 1 1/2 yrs old. heater works, all lights work, AC is all there but does not work. Rebuilt carburetor. Interior is in excellent shape. Most of the parts that were taken off of the car emission and trim pieces etc. go with the car. All gauges except the clock naturally ha work and are very clear. All original glass. I have new door rubber and 1 gallon of red paint to finish the door jams, under hood and trunk lid that will also be included with car. There is a small chip in paint which when painting the door jams will take care of that because its right on the drivers side door opening. There is a small leak in oil pan gasket so I am including a brand new gasket. I have driven this car on 300 mile round trips twice with no problems. This car has placed in Car shows and is a head turner and truly an attention getter. Very Dependable driver . If you don't like attention this would not be the car for you. I have had several nice cars in the past but nothing even comes close to the attention this car has brought. It puts smiles on peoples faces just from remembering the TV show. I wish I had a dime for every time I heard hey Starsky and Hutch. I will miss this car greatly as it was one of my dream cars but I need the money sadly for other things so its time to make someone else's dream come true. I have tried to include everything that I can think of but will probably miss something that's been done. Oh one thing worth mentioning is it has the much desired 9 inch Nodular rear end. I am also including the red police light. I recently purchased the black pin striping to border the white paint and I will also include that with the purchase. I have tried to be as honest as possible to my knowledge about the cars condition and you can see that my feedback is 100%. Good luck with the bidding. Buyer is fully responsible for shipping the vehicle.

Ford picks up new Ranger overseas [w/video+poll]
Tue, Mar 24 2015The new Ford F-150 is lighter and more efficient than the model it replaced, but if it's a smaller Ford pickup that you really wanted, you're going to have to pack your bags. Because while Dearborn stopped selling the Ranger in North America years ago, it still offers one in markets overseas. And it's just rolled out a refreshed model at the 2015 Bangkok Motor Show in Thailand. Following the reveal of the new Everest sport-ute with which it shares its chassis, the refreshed Ranger pickup benefits from revised sheetmetal, powertrain and equipment throughout. The changes are punctuated by a front end with a more rugged-looking grille, a more sculpted hood and projector headlamps. The interior has been updated as well, not only in terms of style but equipment as well, with an eight-inch touchscreen display in the dashboard running Sync 2 and dual TFT displays flanking the speedo in the instrument cluster. Under the hood, buyers will be able to choose between a carryover 2.5-liter inline four with 163 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque that's the sole gasoline option or one of two diesel options: a 2.2-liter four now producing 158 hp and 284 lb-ft, or a 3.2-liter inline-five with 197 hp and 347 lb-ft. The diesel engines are more efficient than before with available stop/start engine management, and offer what Ford says is class-leading towing capability. Six-speed automatic or manual gearboxes transmit the power to the road through either the rear wheels or all four. Production will continue in Thailand for the Asia Pacific Market, South Africa for Africa and Europe, and in Argentina for Latin America. All told the new Ranger will be offered in 180 markets, around the world but for better or worse, ours won't be one of them. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford F-150 production hampered by frame shortage
Sat, May 30 2015If anyone has questions about how Ford's new aluminum-bodied F-150 will hold up, it's not buyers. Orders are so strong for the fullsize pickup that competitors General Motors and Ram are discounting their offerings to hold onto market share. It's a shame for the Blue Oval then, that it can't build all the trucks it needs because frame supplier Metalsa isn't delivering enough frames. Neither Ford nor Metalsa has said what the problem is, but Ford employees are at Metalsa's Kentucky plant trying to get it sorted out, Automotive News reports. Overtime shifts at the Dearborn Truck Plant and the Kansas City Assembly Plant have been canceled due to the shortage that's been a problem for at least two months now. The issue is exacerbated by this being the changeover period in production from the old model to the new, which comes with its own issues. That would help explain why even though Dearborn production finished ramping up in January, output in April was down 9.2 percent compared to last year, according to AN. Transaction prices are up for the new truck, but overall F-150 production in Q1 was down 40 percent, and missing product means missing profits. Combined with the production drop for the new Ford Edge, the company's Q1 bottom line was robbed of $1 billion. It isn't clear when the frame issue will be solved, but workers at the plants are ready to run "all-out" when it is.

Ford partnering with MIT, Stanford on autonomous vehicle research
Fri, 24 Jan 2014Ask any car engineer what's the biggest variable in achieving fuel economy targets, and he'll tell you "the driver." If one human can't understand human driving behavior enough to be certain about an innocuous number like miles per gallon, how is an autonomous car supposed to figure out what hundreds of other drivers are going to do in the course of a day? Ford has enlisted the help of Stanford and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to find out.
Starting with the automated Fusion Hybrid introduced in December, MIT will be developing algorithms that driverless cars can use to "predict actions of other vehicles and pedestrians" and objects within the three-dimensional map provided by its four LIDAR sensors.
The Stanford team will research how to extend the 'vision' of that LIDAR array beyond obstructions while driving, analogous to the way a driver uses the entire width of a lane to see what's ahead of a larger vehicle in front. Ford says it wants to "provide the vehicle with common sense" as part of its Blueprint for Mobility, preparing for an autonomous world from 2025 and beyond.
