Up for auction is my 1971 Ford Torino 500 model, uniquely equipped. Its powered by its ORIGINAL M code, 285hp 351 4 barrel Cleveland engine backed by its original C6 transmission. The 9" rear end houses its original 3.00 geared traction lock differential. The engine runs strong and the trans shifts like it should. It has a nice cam in and a 3000 stall converter from Broader Performance. GREAT SOUNDING full length dual exhaust with Flowmaster 44's. Looking at the Marti report, it shows the car was not dealer stock order but specifically ordered with these options by a customer. Along with the drivetrain, it is equipped with power steering, power disc brakes, air conditioning, tinted glass, visibility group (under hood, trunk, glove box and map lamps), sport mirrors, styled steel wheels and the in dash tachometer. The interior is in good shape but could use a dash pad or a dash cap. The door panels, upholstery, headliner all in nice shape. This is a very solid car as it spent the first part of its life at the southern end of Indiana, not far from Kentucky. It has most of its life North Carolina (since early 80's). All lamps work; turn signals, brake lights, headlights, horn, wipers, windshield washer, heater fan, dash lights, tachometer, door locks, parking brake. Brake pads are at about 50% and rotors are in good shape. Car starts right and and runs/drives/stops good. No smoke, knocks or ticks. While the car has a small amount of rust at the lower rear 1/4, it is nowhere near a rust bucket. This is an EXTREMELY solid car otherwise and is VERY straight! The floors, doors, fenders, cowl, trunk, EVERYTHING is solid solid solid.. The front shock towers have NOT been torched for greasing the upper control arms which is a rare find.

The car has new window crank knobs and door lock knobs, dome lamp lens, Duralast Gold battery, reproduction battery cables, battery hold down and bolts, remanufactured correct carburetor, wiper refills in original frames, pre-bent fuel line from fuel pump to carburetor, Monroe front shocks, Cooper Cobra tires and Alpine 6x9 rear speakers. It has an older JVC cassette deck that DOES work. I do have the original shoulder belts and they go with the car along with the air conditioning compressor. The compressor is not frozen so it should be good. I have receipts and paperwork going back to the mid 80's and covering 4 different owners. The vehicle also retains its original owners manual, operators manual, warranty card, starting instructions sleeve and warrranty facts guide. It has all 5 of the styled steel wheels. Correct, new reproduction center caps for the wheels.

In addition to all of this, during the end of August and beginning of September, the engine was pulled for installation of the stall converter along with an engine bay clean and detail.

Engine - cleaned, new oil pan/timing cover/water pump/valve cover/ intake gaskets/ carburetor and a repaint. Fresh distributor (has a Pertronix conversion) and carter fuel pump. Engine has a double roller timing set. New engine harness and all new/fresh decals and markings. New valve springs and belts, fresh Motorcraft oil filter and Brad Penn oil.

Engine bay - Degreased / Powerwashed, prepped and painted with Rustoleum 7777. Everything has either been cleaned and detailed or is new. All fresh replated hardware. Concours restored wiper motor. Reproduction battery cables, radiator and heater hoses, hose clamps, decals, windshield washer pump,master cylinder cover and master cylinder mounting nuts. Alternator cleaned and painted, reproduction fan and pulley. I have pictures from engine removal, cleaning, painting right up to the finished product.

Grill Assembly - Complete grill assembly disassembled, cleaned, taped off and painted. Headlight stands/buckets disassembled, cleaned and painted.

Heater core removed, repaired (broke soldered joint for tube), flushed and pressure tested. Heater control repaired and all underhood vacuum lines for heater/AC system repaired/replaced and properly run. Heater box now functions as it should with vent/heat/de-fog and de-ice functions working properly. Blower motor works great. Great heat!

I'm sure there's a lot of things I'm forgetting and I'm always updating and making things more factory correct..

Ran 14.70 at the Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race with a 4.11 locker installed. The car currently has its original 3.00 traction loc differential installed.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.

Saleen SA-30 Mustang, Camaro and Challenger help celebrate the big 3-0

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

After 30 years of tuning performance cars and building racecars, Saleen is celebrating its racing heritage with a limited-production car line called SA-30. Based on the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger, Saleen will only build 10 of each SA-30 model at a base price of $95,000.
For that money, buyers will get upgraded suspension, brakes and engines, and while the power figures have not been released for the SA-30 620 Camaro and SA-30570 Challenger models, the SA-30 302 Mustang will be the top performer with 625 horsepower. Each car will be painted up in a custom pearl white hue with black and yellow accents, and get white wheels shrouding yellow powder-coated brake calipers. Inside, the SA-30 offerings will all get a proper Saleen interior with black leather and white Alcantara on the seats, along with the expected smattering of SA-30 badges.
On all three SA-30 models, customers will have various options available to further customize their cars, including a rear-seat delete option that transforms each car's cabin into a race-inspired interior with a chassis-strengthening rear cross brace. Perhaps the coolest feature of all, though, is the Saleen Frost-Touch Glass that is an option on the SA-30 302 Mustang. Similar to the Mercedes Sky Control roof first introduced on the Mercedes SLK, the Saleen Frost-Touch Glass allows the Mustang's optional glass roof and rear window to be switched from transparent to opaque at the push of a button.
