1971 Ford Torino 500 Fastback. These cars are getting harder and harder to find...and this one is solid! This vehicle is a good daily driver right now but would make a great start to a full on restoration project. It was originally a 302 (original engine included) but now has a 351 Cleveland 4V, aluminum intake, Headman headers, Auto, PS, Factory Air (not installed but I have ALL the pieces), Magnum 500 wheels and nearly new tires. Brand new items include...full length FlowMaster dual exhaust with crossover pipe, Edlebrock carb w/electric choke, distributer, water pump, high volume oil pump, rod bearings (engine was NOT rebuilt but had some lower end noise, I replaced bearings and eliminated 90% of engine noise), spark plugs, brake master cylinder, fuel pump, B&M ratchet shifter, trans mount, motor mount, AM-FM CD player and speakers as well as a bunch of other misc items. All electrical items like lights, signals, wipers, temp gauge, fuel gauge, wipers etc work well. One exception...although the heat/AC fan is operational the heater core has been bypassed and my assumption is that it's bad. The paint is faded and worn in various places. It also has some surface rust in a few areas (top of fender, roof line and trunk) but only one area on the body where it is through the metal. The body is very solid and so is the undercarriage (I took some undercarriage photos of the frame and floors). There is one area rusted through on the drivers side floor but over all is in great shape.  The undercarriage is actually original and NOT all painted up underneath so you can actually see what you get (photos show this). The trunk, inner fender wells and shock towers are also original and rust free. The interior is all original and has tears on both seats, the headliner and carpet. The odometer reads 64,159 miles and the previous owner and the title state that it is original. Again, this is not a show car but it is solid! I am definitely ONLY interested in selling it, so no trade offers please.  I am also offering it for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  The vehicle is sold with no warranty expressed or implied.  If you have any questions shoot me an email and I will reply as soon as I can.  Good luck and good bidding.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.

Ford patents a multi-touch version of its classic keypad

Fri, Sep 9 2016

For decades, Ford has offered a keypad on the doors of their cars that would allow owners access with the right code. Amazingly, the keypad has survived almost unchanged except for a recent touch button version. A new patent from the Blue Oval shows the keypad may get a big upgrade soon. The first big change is that it looks like the keypad may move to the key fob. Although it might be possible to have it on the car itself as well, the patent only seems to focus on the key fob. In addition, the fob will now be a multi-touch pad similar to that of modern smartphones. This will allow for more diverse code entries, according to the patent's description. Instead of just a simple number code, owners could enter a code that involves swipes and keystrokes, and even simultaneous keystrokes. For instance, you could enter a code that requires swiping from 1 to 3, followed by holding 2 and 4 to unlock the car. The patent also seems to indicate that this keypad would then display unlock functions and other functions on the fob after the correct code is entered, thus making it more than just a way to unlock the car. As for the practical implications of this keypad system update, it could provide an added layer of security. If someone steals your keys, they would have to also know your access code to get into the car. Whether this would also help make the key and car harder to hack would remain to be seen, though. Another possible benefit could be the prevention of accidental lock and alarm button presses, although that likely isn't a common issue. There could be potential downsides as well. If used as an extra layer of security, the legitimate owner would have to punch in their code on the fob to get in, which would render proximity key benefits relatively useless. Moving the keypad to the fob would also mean owners couldn't get into their cars without having the key with them. We don't have any clues as to when this could become a feature, but it doesn't seem like it would be difficult to implement, so it could show up in the next few years.

2016 Ford Focus RS leaked ahead of official debut

Tue, Feb 3 2015

We won't officially see the new Ford Focus RS until the Blue Oval shows it to the world at an event on Tuesday, but here it is ahead of time, courtesy of the folks at Evo. As you can see, this is one hot little hatch, and if Evo's story is to be believed, those aggressive looks will be backed up with some pretty serious performance. Power is said to come from Ford's 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine, though the magazine's estimate of 250 horsepower seems awfully conservative to us (considering that's less than the current Focus ST). If earlier reports are to be believed, we think the RS will come packing more like 300 hp, if not more. For the first time, the Focus RS will use all-wheel drive with brake-operated torque-vectoring, and Evo says that up to 70 percent of the engine's power can be sent to the rear wheels. Hitting 60 miles per hour will reportedly take less than five seconds. Otherwise, it's business as usual, with a mean-looking exterior complete with the necessary aero bits (notice that wing!), and inside, we can see a beefy set of Recaro chairs. That's really all we know for now, but stay tuned for more when the Focus RS makes its official debut in the not-too-distant future. Related Video:
