For sale today is a desirable 1970 Torino 429 Cobra. Car is a beautiful example of Ford muscle. Lots of history to these Torino's as they are getting scarce.

IMPROVED in many ways by installing a complete rebuilt genuine 429 Cobrajet engine along with her 4 speed factory 10 spline, 31 spline toploader close ratio, heavy duty output, all taken from a shaker J code 429 cobrajet Torino that was used for racing.  Engine is the Cobrajet D0ve-A model with DOOE-R CJ heads. CJ manifold. Cobrajet Radiator. Cobrajet fan. The carburetor is the original Quadrajet 4 barrel. Cobrajet exhaust manifolds....nice.  

ITS ALL THERE

The car itself came to us stripped and the owner pretty much completed all the body work. For the most part there is no more body work needed anywhere on this car, just some cosmetic touches. Floors were redone, as well as body panels. Frame rails are all good. Original CALYPSO CORAL paint with one repaint.  Has all glass and windows. Original interior with console. Has a Hurst shifter hooked up. Has its shaker top and scoop. Had to pry the Original 429 Quadrajet carburetor off the CJ intake when we got the engine...nice  VERY ORIGINAL. Even has some original Torino 1970? FIRESTONE whitewall tires and painted rims which we kept on for authenticity. Needless to say tires will need replacing. Car also comes with rare under dash Frigette air conditioning unit.

As you can see we stripped the engine to clean it up and rebuild. We verified all the parts to make sure it is all Cobrajet, down to the pistons. Please see video for verification.




Vehicle has a Hurst shifter to go with the 4 speed toploader transmission. Transmission spins freely.

The car is very desirable and is an easy car to take to the next level.  Since it does need some finishing touches but everything is there to take to the next level w
e are offering this at NO RESERVE so the HIGH BIDDER will win. . We wanted to give the winning bidder some flexibility on the final price so NO RESERVE... HIGH BID gets it.


We do have the 429 CJ emblems and stickers we will place on the car before it gets to the next owner. Original exhaust will be in place. This is a louver car. We dont have the louvers but the brackets holes are still intact. We may have a contact for a pair of louvers I can put you in touch with. It will come with all window trim & extra Torino pieces.

These Torino's are collectors items. Here is your chance to get one for a NO RESERVE price. We do have it offered for sale a couple other places so we reserve the right to end the auction at any time. We would entertain worthy offers to end the auction early.

Ford recalls 1.3 million Fusions, MKZs: Steering wheels could come off

Wed, Mar 14 2018

When driving a car, the steering wheel is only expected to move in a rotational fashion, either clockwise or counter-clockwise. When it moves in some other direction, something is wrong, and when it moves the wrong way enough that it is no longer attached to the steering column, that's a really, really bad thing. And apparently, according to a recall issued by Ford, there are over 1.3 million Ford Fusions and Lincoln MKZs that are at risk of this happening. And at least two accidents and one injury have been attributed to the issue. Ford says the problem is that the steering wheel bolt that keeps the wheel attached to the column might not provide enough torque, resulting in the bolt slowly loosening and working its way off the column. The good news is that the fix is really simple. Ford will install a larger bolt with more threads along with a larger nylon patch to keep it all locked down. The fix is completely free to owners. Cars affected by the recall include 2014 to 2017 Fusions built built at the Flat Rock plant in Michigan between August 6, 2013, and February 29, 2016. Model year 2014-2018 Fusions and MKZs built at the Hermosillo factory in Mexico are also affected. So if you have one of those sedans, please get in touch with your local dealer to have the issue addressed. Related Video:

Ford won't be releasing GT500 lap times for the 'Ring, or any other car

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

Trucks have towing capacity, EVs have driving range and performance cars have Nürburgring lap times. What do all three have in common? They should all be taken with a grain of salt. Currently, there is no sanctioned way to record lap times or verify production-spec cars - a lesson we recently learned with the 2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo - and until there is a way to do so (and there probably never will be), we'll never officially know the actual time it took for Ford to lap the 'Ring with its ultra-powerful Shelby GT500.
After posting a Ford-made video of a 2013 GT500 running around the 'Ring, the guys over at SVTPerformance.com (an enthusiasts forum not affiliated with Ford or SVT) wanted more answers. They got in touch with Ford's Global Performance Vehicle Chief Engineer Jamal Hameedi, who said until there is a way to verify the times and inspect the cars, Ford will not get involved with lap-time wars. In the email, Hameedi pointed out that the 'Ring is a useful tool in that it allows a wide spectrum of track conditions, but until there is a governed way to record times, there is no way to accurately compare cars head-to-head.
And as much as some may not like it, Hameedi speaks the truth. It really isn't possible to compare times from one car to another, unless those cars were lapping the same track at the same time with the same driver. Not that any of this means there won't be continuous wars by fans and manufacturers alike... in other words, feel free to voice your opinions in the Comments below.

Ford reveals Fiesta ST race car, points at road ahead for bigger things in Global RallyCross

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST doesn't go on sale until this summer, but fans of Global RallyCross will be able to catch the car in action before then. Announced ahead of the Chicago Auto Show, the Fiesta ST will be the car run by Ford GRC teams this season, and the model on display in Chicago will be the racecar built by Swedish tuner OlsbergsMSE driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan. Ken Block and his newly renamed Hoonigan Racing Division will also be competing in the Fiesta ST.
The 2013 GRC season has not been announced yet, but the venues will also include the summer X Games events in Brazil, Spain, Germany and, of course, Los Angeles. Ford announced that it will be the sole automotive sponsor of this year's summer X Games, and it will be looking to bring home a gold medal this year after Block placed silver last year.
In other Ken Block- and Ford-related news, another Chicago debut will be a tuned Focus ST called the TrackSTer project. Built in cooperation with Block, Ford and automotive tuner fifteen52, the TrackSTer will get plenty of styling, performance and handling upgrades. Some of the add-ons include a performance exhaust and short-throw shifter from Ford Racing, a rebuilt engine, upgraded components such as the limited-slip differential, intercooler, engine controller and clutch as well as upgraded brakes.
