Up for auction is a 1969 Ford Torino GT 428 CJ Q code (non ram-air) automatic car. This car is a major project car but is well worth the time and money. It is a factory 428 CJ automatic on the column car. It was originally a bench seat car but the bench seat was gone when I got the car as well as the running gear. I have a standard 428 motor, a C6 trans with rebuild kit and new R-servo, and a 3:55 posi chunk for the rearend. The paint on the car is Petty Blue. The car has big King Cobra stickers on both right & left fenders. From what I have been able to find out from people that were familiar with the car when it was new is that it was sold as a tribute to this being the only year Richard Petty drove a Ford and a Torino. You should be able to get more information on this with a Marti report. I just have not had the time to do so as I have talked with people around the SC area where the car was sold new. I have a clear SC title for the car and the door tag reads as follows: Body 63F Color _____ (no numbers) Trim 6B Date 17A
D.S.O 220148 Axle A Trans U. According to the books I have to decode this information, the blank numbers code indicates the car was shipped from the factory in primer.
If you have any questions, please email and I will try to answer asap.
I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY AS THE CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY.

Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building
Wed, 31 Oct 2012After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.
Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor
Sat, 16 Mar 2013Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.
