Up for bid is my 1973 Ford Gran Torino Sport Fastback. This Torino has been well cared for with few owners. I am currently the 3rd owner. I purchased this Torino from Alabama 13 years ago with 54,000 original miles on it. To my knowledge this car was purchased new in Alabama and stayed there until I brought it to Mississippi. This was my first car and a daily driver for me for many years. It has actually been the most dependable vehicle I've owned, which is quite funny considering the age. The car was repainted back the original color around 11 years ago and shortly after won the only car show I ever entered it in. But being an every day driver it does have some wear on the paint such as chips, fades, and flakes which are all minor. The cars interior is mostly original from the factory. This is the sport interior with bucket seats and automatic in the floor console. I'm not much of a bench seat fan for my sports cars. I did replace the carpet which is now faded a bit but that's a simple fix. The seats are original but have just a few seams starting to separate. the headliner also has a small separation of a few inches in the back corner. Other than that the interior is in great original shape. The dash is crack free which is a big deal. The door panels, console, and everything else is well preserved also. As for the body there are a few small rust spots on the passenger side and some on the chrome. Also some minor damage to the passenger rear corner which mostly just chipped the paint more than anything. None of these I would consider major. Other than that the body is excellent! All gaps line up perfect. The doors, hood, and trunk all close very easily and smoothly with the push of a finger. All of the windows are in working order and all of the glass is without a crack, chip, peck or blemish anywhere. The trunk is solid and includes the original Polyglas GT spare. The lights and signals are all in great condition. This Torino has been driven less than 100 miles since the carburetor and tires were replaced new. Also, the dual exhaust (although original) sounds great. This car currently has 82,166 actual miles on it and a NADA average retail of over $11,000.00. I also have some extra emblems and a few other things that will go with the car. This is a rare find. Bid with confidence. Congratulations to the winning bidder!

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford
Tue, 07 Jan 2014
The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
Spy shooter claims proof of upcoming aluminum Ford F-Series Super Duty
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford has already confirmed that the 2015 F-150 (pictured above) was just the beginning for its more extensive use of aluminum. CEO Alan Mulally said it himself during the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. We've even already seen the future Raptor testing with an aluminum body. But a recent discovery from an intrepid spy photographer might indicate that the lightweight metal is coming to the Blue Oval's Super Duty pickups in their upcoming generation, as well.
According to Automotive News, a spy shooter in Colorado spotted a prototype for the next-gen F-350 testing. He happened to have a magnet on hand and got close enough to check the truck out. When he held it up to the metal in the bed, it didn't stick, which signaled to him a switch from steel to aluminum.
Obviously, this claim raises some questions. Given that it was a test vehicle, one possibility is that the Blue Oval is just evaluating the feasibility of switching to aluminum for the Super Duty trucks, not necessarily committed to it yet. Ford has been testing it quite exhaustively, after all. In fact, much of the rest of the truck in question was covered in camouflage, so it's possible that the magnet failed to work along the rest of the body not because it was aluminum, but because it wasn't powerful enough to get through the disguising material. Thus, the lightweight metal's use could be far less substantial than on the new F-150. Still, it was a clever idea for the cameraman to check things out and might have given us the first hint about brand's next heavy-duty models.
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
