This classic was discovered in a barn from the Midwest, it was stored for about 20 years. This is a great opportunity for the person who wants to drive a true classic muscle car, before starting a possible restoration. , It is all original Candyapple Ford Red with a repaint over 25 years ago. I think the only things aren't original are the steering wheel, front fiberglass bumper and air cleaner. I put a lot of work to get it running and drivable. However it is not road worthy, partially due to the rear drum brakes not working. It will definitely be able to get on and off a trailer.This appears to be the original 351 Windsor, and it runs strong with no blowing oil. I think it has a bigger cam. One RARE item on this is the "Buddy Bar" aluminum intake manifold #C90X-9424-A, if you don't know, please research this NASCAR icon $$$$. Simply put this manifold was used with Shelby back in the day.... This is the real deal.....look at the pic. The original interior which is RARE, having a bucket seat with console, the condition is remarkable. There weren't many made, most have a bench seat. It has a 9", 3:00 ratio rear end. The extra options were the FMX automatic trans and front DISC BRAKES! It also has the argent steel wheels with emblems. I have the "Marti Report" to back all of this, see pic. The worst rust is on the front portion, left and right floor. Partial rear frame rails seen in the trunk, and some of the panels. Again look at the pics. The L&R door windows are off the track. All the glass is in excellent shape. All trim is good as well. The headliner is loose. The hood scoop is awesome, and it is functional. The turn signals,lights and dash gauges work except for tach. There are also aftermarket gauges installed on the left of the dash. I have some extra parts....manual, paperwork, original ford carb. It has a new battery. This GT is good, and I have set a FAIR reserve, this opportunity doesn't come around often! I have to state the typical DO NOT BID unless you will purchase this classic.......NO SCAMMERS, FAKE BIDDERS ETC....I would like you to contact me via phone, with ANY questions, pics etc..at 773)443-9544-Kevin. A $500 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE WITH IN 24 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE. PICK UP AND FINAL PAYMENT WITHIN 7 DAYS UNLESS OTHERWISE DISCUSSED. I AM FLEXIBLE. I also know of a transporter that is in the Midwest, He owns his company and is real fair.....He is not a broker and when you deal with him, its only him and he is the driver. Please ask for info. Thanks for bidding.

Ken Block shows us around his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax

Thu, Jan 22 2015

From his Fiesta HFHV to his '65 Mustang Hoonicorn, the inimitable Ken Block has some awesome machinery at his disposal. But arguably the coolest of the bunch is the RaptorTrax. Based on the previous-gen Ford F-150 SVT Raptor - the one with the steel frame and V8 engine - Block's back country snowmobile on steroids packs a set of tracks at each corner, a full roll cage, equipment rack, lighting, jump seats, survival gear... everything he could need for a trip off road. The Gymkhana master showcased the beast a couple of months ago on the slopes of Baldface in Nelson, BC, but now he's followed up with a less eye-popping but more informative clip in which he shows us everything his RaptorTrax has to offer.

How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality

Wed, 01 May 2013

The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.

Major automakers post mixed US June sales figures

Mon, Jul 3 2017

General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV posted declines in US new vehicle sales for June on Monday, while major Japanese automakers reported stronger figures. Once again, demand for pickup trucks and crossovers offset a decline in sedan sales. Automakers' shares rose as overall industry sales still came in above Wall Street expectations. The US auto industry is bracing for a downturn after hitting a record 17.55 million new vehicles sold in 2016. Analysts had predicted that overall, US vehicle sales would fall in June for the fourth consecutive month. As the market has shown signs of cooling, automakers have hiked discounts and loosened lending terms. Car shopping website Edmunds said on Monday the average length of a car loan reached an all-time high of 69.3 months in June. "It's financially risky, leaving borrowers exposed to being upside down on their vehicles for a large chunk of their loans," said Jessica Caldwell, Edmunds' executive director of industry analysis. GM said its sales fell about 5 percent versus June 2016, but that the industry would see stronger sales in the second half of 2017 versus the first half. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." GM shares were up 2.4 percent in morning trading, while Ford rose 3.3 percent and FCA shares jumped 6 percent. "US total sales are moderating due to an industry-wide pullback in daily rental sales, but key US economic fundamentals clearly remain positive," said GM chief economist Mustafa Mohatarem. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." Ford said its sales for June were hit by lower fleet sales to rental agencies, businesses, and government entities, which fell 13.9 percent, while sales to consumers were flat. But it sold a record 406,464 SUVs in the first half of the year, with Explorer sales increasing 23 percent in June. And sales of the F-150 had their strongest June since 2001. On a media call, Ford executives said an initial read of automakers' sales figures indicated a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of around 17 million new vehicles for the month, which would be better than 16.6 million units analysts had predicted. FCA said June sales decreased 7 percent versus the same month a year earlier.
