 Here is one of the cleanest,lowest mile 1976 Ford Torino 4dr Sedans in the country I'm pretty sure.

Bought from the stereotypical little old lady in Ohio who owned it from brand new in 1976 till the Spring of 2013 when it was sold to the gentleman I bought it off several months later. Car still has a clean Ohio title.

This Torino has an unbelievable 28,979 ORIGINAL miles on it and was garage kept it's entire life by the original owner and has been garage kept by me since the day I bought it and as you can see by my pictures, is still garage kept.

Interior is green and is a 9.9 out of 10...like brand new also was never smoked in.

Exterior was Ford Factory Light Yellow, I had it painted Ford Bright White, I bought the car with the intention of making it into a 1976 Sheriff's Police Patrol Vehicle from Cook County,Illinois. Even if I would have decided to just drive the car I would have had it painted anyway as I did not like that sickly yellow color.I did have the inside trunk done to the white color change but left the door jams yellow to do them myself and I have the extra paint to do them,saves about 1200.00 off of the paintjob which I had already spent 1500.00-didn't see the need to make it 2700.00

 Due to family and work commitments I have no time to mess with this car(needs nothing but adding on the police equipment)for at least 2 years and I'd rather see it in the hands of someone who would appreciate it as much as I do.

Car is basically a civilian Police Package car from the factory,having only A/C(blows cold but not ice cold-needs charging) Power Brakes and Power Steering, Factory am/fm and factory dog dish hubcaps. Remember this car has 28,979 original miles and runs like new. Before it was painted it had a very little surface rust on a few spots,mainly above the drivers rear wheel well(no rot,just surface rust) and a few road dings from rocks...those were done the right way then the car was painted professionally. Bodywork was done by the paintshop. This car has never been crashed. I have put less than 100 miles on this car since I owned it,only driving it to the paint shop and back(about 70 miles) and few dozen times around my block. I even had it trucked up to Illinois from Ohio.

DO NOT miss out on this Torino if you love the big body 4dr's of the 70's...you may never see one with this low of miles and body condition again. Transportation is the buyers responsibility but I will help in any way I can. I have used a company called Direct Express(google for phone number) on 7 occasions since 1999 shipping cars to me or from my address. Direct Express is very dependable,always at least half of the price of larger shippers and does door to door service.

I also have all of the antique Police Equipment should the buyer want want to convert it into an old Police Cruiser.  I have the old lightbar,backseat cage,NOS Spotlight,and antique radios.  Call me if interested in these to go with the car,or if new owner would just like the Spotlight to install on driver's door pillar to make it look like an old unmarked unit and drive like that I will gladly give it to you.

Ford Australia goes miniature with Beachkhana 1.0 video

Tue, Mar 3 2015

Ken Block's Gymkhana franchise may have started with Subaru, but it's most closely associated with Ford, which the rally star joined way back in 2010. That fruitful partnership has spawned a number of Gymkhanas, and Block even showed up to help introduce the new Focus RS. To honor this, Ford Australia has come up with an adorable parody (for lack of a better word), starring the hero Sun Block. Rather than a full-scale rally Fiesta piloted by a Vegemite-munching Aussie, though, Ford of Oz has gone tiny for its tribute. Really tiny. The product is Beachkhana 1.0 – Wild on the Beaches of Australia, is a funky little stop-motion feature using tiny, 1:43-scale cars in much the same manner as Mr. Block drives his Fiesta rally car. It even pokes some fun at Mercedes-Benz's hilarious Magic Body Control ad. Check it out.

Ford builds Lightweight Concept with Fusion shell [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

It's a fairly well known fact that removing weight from a car is essentially a panacea for many of the modern automobiles problems. Does it handle like crap? Remove weight. Underpowered? Don't add power; trim the fat. Need to improve fuel economy? It's diet time.
Actually executing a major weight reduction program, though, much like with human beings, is no easy task. Unlike you or I, where motivation is the issue, the prohibitive measure in trimming a car's waistline is money. Lightweight materials are expensive, with carbon fiber and carbon-fiber reinforced plastic still primarily in the domain of higher end vehicles. Even aluminum construction, pioneered on a mass-produced level by Audi and Jaguar, is only now starting to make its way into the mainstream, thanks to the upcoming Ford F-150.
With this concept, though, Ford is attempting to show that a mass-produced, lightweight vehicle isn't too far off. This is the Lightweight Concept, and while it may look like a Fusion, it weighs as much as a Fiesta. For reference, the lightest Fusion available to the public is the 3,323-pound, 2.5-liter model with a manual transmission. A manually equipped, 1.6-liter Fiesta, meanwhile, is just 2,537 pounds.
