AS MANY OF YOU ARE AWARE, I HAVE BEEN MARKETING CLASSIC CARS
OF EVERY KIND FOR MY CLIENTS ON EBAY FOR OVER 10 YEARS...
EVERYTHING FROM DARRIN'S TO DUESENBERGS!

OFTENTIMES (AS IN THE CASE OF THIS TORINO), THE OWNER HAS PASSED AND THE INFORMATION THE FAMILY HAS PROVIDED IS BOTH LIMITED AND SKETCHY. AS SUCH, I WILL DO MY BEST TO DESCRIBE WHAT I CAN.

 ANY HELP FROM MY FELLOW EBAYER'S IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED!


DETAILS INCLUDE:
  • I have no idea what size the engine is or if it is original to the car. (One family member told me it was a 460 and another told me a 429.)
  • Same thing for the transmission and rear end.
  • The speedometer worked when we drove it to the service center and after performing some minor exhaust work it stopped. (Odometer & Title will reflect 92,000 actual miles.)
  • The temperature gauge does not work. (After market one does)
  • The bright light switch is stuck on high beams.
  • Little round knob for window handle is missing.
  • Restored approximately 10 years ago.
  • VIN: 1A38C156078
  • Exhaust Manifold #: DOOE - 9430 - A (I couldn't read driver's side.)
  • Driver's side of motor: D2OE - AB
  • There is a very large "CP" on the rear of the engine.
  • Transmission has a big "14" on it.
  • The tag on the door reads: Body 63H - Col - X - Trans U or O - DSO - 21
  • Dark Blue Paint with Metallic - Not sure if it's original.
  • Runs & Drives Excellent
  • Sound Incredible! (Must have a larger cam shaft.)
  • Family members all say that Dad was very meticulous about this car. (He worked for Ford his whole life and was a "Ford Man" through and through.
  • He knew Bill Shenk personally (a big wig with Ford) and had him sign the car.
  • Several chips in paint that have been touched up. (I couldn't find them without my reading glasses on.)
  • Small area on roof has a few hair line cracks in paint. (I didn't need my glasses to find them!)
  • Tires seem good with plenty of rubber and very even wear.
  • Car steers straight with no issues.
  • Power brakes and power steering.
  • Wiper switch has a mind of its own. (Won't shut off sometimes.)
  • Radio doesn't work.
  • Brakes stop the car fine with no real pulling.
  • Idled for over 30 minutes without ever overheating.
  • Air Conditioner System seems to be missing.
  • Small imperfection in floor pan. (See picture)

YOU CAN INSPECT THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO BIDDING UNTIL THE AUCTION HAS ENDED. PLEASE CONTACT ME AND WE CAN ARRANGE A TIME. I HAVE LISTED THIS VEHICLE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY, BUT BEING A USED CLASSIC CAR IT IS NOT IN PERFECT CONDITION. 

All used vehicles should be assumed to have some degree of wear. No vehicle is perfect in any way. Each vehicle has its strengths, styles, tendencies and shortcomings. Therefore, despite our best efforts to verify a vehicle's mechanical condition, we are not able to warranty a manufacturer’s workmanship or previous owner’s diligence in care. It is for this reason that all vehicles are sold "AS IS". We have described the above mentioned vehicle to the best of our ability. However, with all pre-owned automobiles, the condition is subjective. Please be advised that no oral or written statements concerning any vehicle constitutes a representation or warranty of the condition of said vehicle. I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time and for any reason.


DISCLAIMER

As always, I reserve the right to cancel this auction at any time and for any reason. I will entertain any reasonable offers, both online and otherwise, and therefore may decide to sell prior to auction ending. If I agree to accept an offer, whether online or not, the buyer must agree to consummate purchase through Ebay and abide their rules and conditions.

Please note that no car is perfect. It has been driven. It may have minor wear and minor marks from being on the road. I would suggest coming to see it in person before bidding so you know the degree of wear of the vehicle. I listed this vehicle to the best of my ability. However, I am only human and could have missed a flaw. So please if you have any concerns contact me. Thank you!!

Happy Bidding!!!

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
