Hoschton, Georgia, United States

1973 Gran Torino Sport Fastback. 351C 4V Q code, C6 Transmission, 9 inch rear.

Mileage on the odometer (18176) does not reflect actual mileage, it has probably rolled over at least once.

I purchased this car in 3/2009 from the first owner. The car comes with the original window sticker and owner's manual. Included are the body side moldings, original radio, and the five Magnum 500 rims, (four with old tires on them) and the fifth is in the trunk with a new spare on it. There is also a Procar Pro 90 seat and mounting brackets for two seats still in boxes and a B&M Transpak.

Some of the parts replaced since purchase include:

  • rear brake shoes and rear wheel cylinders
  • radius arm bushing
  • sway bar link kits
  • correct windshield with dark band on bottom
  • seat belts (changed to retractable style in front)
  • headliner
  • carpet
  • steering wheel (Grant)
  • rubber seals for doors, windows, trunk, cowl, rear window
  • window felts
  • stereo and speakers
  • Edelbrock Air Gap manifold
  • Holley 670 Street Avenger
  • Ford Racing chrome valve covers
  • starter
  • fuel sending unit
  • fuel pump
  • rims and tires (BF Goodrich T/A's)
  • A/C compressor and drier (Freon changed to R134-A, needs more work and comes with additional new parts to be installed)
  • front and rear bumpers rechromed by Goodmark  

This is not a full restoration show car; it was intended to be a solid daily driver. The car runs well, needs minor work with the A/C, fan and wiper controls. It needs paint work and the seats need recovering.

If you just want a fun, reliable older car or a great starting point for a full restoration, this is it.

This vehicle is being sold as-Is with No Warranty Expressed or Implied.

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here. You can also check out the full press release below.

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.

Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

General 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.
