 Go back to 1969 and you will find the only year till this year, that THE KING ever drove a blue oval beauty. He did however tear up the racing world in a beautiful PETTY BLUE TORINO COBRA. As the year wore on and the coming of the Daytona's and the super birds, Ford sought to capitalize on the King's season before he jumped ship. They reached out to a select number of southern dealers for a promotion to sell petty blue cobras. The cars were all 351 engines with the exception of I believe 3. The 3 were special promo cars and were all big block 428 cars. These were given away as sweepstakes cars. This car is one of the all original 428 cars and has a just shy of 100k original miles on it. The car is a survivor and hasn't been restored or messed with. The pics you will see are the actual car and have NOT been photo enhanced. The bottom of the car is perfect and better than most one year old cars. the interior, with exception of a good cleaning is perfect. The car runs and drives superb with no flaws and tons of power. The engine purrs and holds nothing back. The car is a factory ordered bench seat c-6 automatic car with the beast, the 428 cj motor backing it up. I hate to sell this car but I have opened a new shop and need to thin out our inventory. I have talked on 2 occasions to a retired NASCAR driver that I have promised not to mention by name that has tried to buy this car twice and I told him I wanted to run on ebay before I actually considered his offer. It is for sale locally and available for viewing and driving before auction ends. I will be glad to make it available to any inspector or you personally for inspection. The car has its flaws in the paint and one surface rust spot under hood but again, I think I would hurt the value of the car by doing anything to it as it is in great shape and runs like a dream. This car is a show stopper anytime I take it out. Marti report shows this as a Promo car and after talking at great length to one of the biggest Ford store owners in the area, he verified all the information I have given you. I have also talked at great lengths with the Petty Foundation and other members of the southeastern Nascar promotions dept, who all verify the Ford Promotions that released these cars to the public. The color code on the door plaque is blank as it should be with any custom or promo cars from Ford of that era. Car is titled and is in locked down dry storage with our other 50 cars. This is truly a one of a kind piece of Ford and Petty history for that collector that wants to have something nobody else has. I have spent a year searching everywhere on the net and only found records of one more of these cars. So bid often and ask any questions you want. The number to our shop is 706-778-3235 or feel free to use the ebay ask question button.  First pic is that of Petty's car and the rest are of the car your bidding on. I have already turned down two of the high end auction companies that wanted to pick the car up and I don't need any help selling it. No scammers because Ive seen it all before. I build and restore cars for a living and did corp contract law for 15 years, so if you think you can scam me, think again. NO JOY RIDERS ECT,

Ford gets colorful with Mustang anniversary infographic

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Preparing to celebrate its 50th birthday, the Ford Mustang has seen a lot of vehicle trends come and go, and this especially goes for paint colors. Using historical production data, Ford has managed to create an infographic dating back to 1967 that breaks down the three top Mustang colors for each year as well as calling out some of the more interesting trends and colors over the years.
Over its five generations, the Mustang has been offered in a seemingly endless rainbow - from Playboy Pink in '67 and color-changing Mystichrome on the 2004 Cobra - but the most popular has always been red, which is the color of choice for 21 percent of all Mustangs ever made. Almost every year since 1967, red has been among the top three colors for the Mustang, but other popular colors have included blue, white, brown and, most recently, black. There are even websites and registries available for people owning certain-color Mustangs.
As the all-new 2015 Mustang gets ready for its debut later this year, there's no telling what kind of exciting and/or wacky colors Ford has in store. Click on the image above to see the full infographic (choose the "large" option for optimal viewing), or check it out in a smaller size along with the press release posted below.

Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod

Tue, 21 Oct 2014

Woodie 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.
