1970 Ford Torino Cobra Gt Ranchero Fairlane Hideaway Headlight Grille Assembly on 2040-parts.com
Delta, Colorado, US
For your consideration is this ultra rare hideaway headlight and grille assembly for a 1970 Torino Cobra, Torino GT, Ranchero GT, Ranchero Squire, or Fairlane GT. This unit was taken out by me personally from a running Ranchero. Included is the extremely hard to find vacuum cannister and even the core support brace. I have all but one of the original bolts (one of the hidden bolts on the extreme upper right corner of the front of the grille was missing) to install it. The top side of the grille that is normally all cracked and broken on the support braces from mechanics leaning on it is in perfect condition as shown in photo #'s 8-10. Several of the plastic tabs are broken off on the bottom backside of the grille as shown and will need repair. The center eggcrate is broken in several places and was somewhat repaired poorly years ago using small screws/bolts as shown in # 7. Both headlight doors and eggcrates are in extremely good and undamaged condition. Both doors open and close smoothly by hand. All 4 headlights are intact with all 4 trim rings in very good shape. One headlight is an original Ford script light. There is no damage to the headlight areas on the front or backsides and the headlights unplugged very easily. There is obviously some missing stainless trim pieces on the leading edge of the grille. The vacuum cannister and associated actuating rods and springs are all there and look fine. No rust anywhere. I don't know if the cannister holds vacuum or not. The rubber boot is even in great shape with no tears or dry rot. Even the rubber hoses pulled off the cannister nipples quite easily. This car was in California for over 30 years before coming to dry western Colorado.

Range Rover (2011): first pictures, new V8
Thu, 17 Jun 2010Land Rover might only have revised the Range Rover last summer, but there’s now a new version, complete with a bigger and better 4.4-litre TDV8, plus it's available as a limited-run Autobiography Black special edition to celebrate the car’s 40th birthday. For a start the engine has grown from 3.6 to 4.4-litres, but still retains the twin sequential turbochargers. That means 309bhp (up from 267bhp), while the torque figures climbs from 472lb ft to 516lb ft.

Wed, 26 Oct 2011Alfa Romeo MiTo Quadrifoglio and 2500 Balloons Alfa in the UK rather like a bit of social media promotion. So they’ve set up a competition to promote the quite warm Alfa Romeo MiTo Quadrifoglio. But instead of just doing the usual ‘Like us on Facebook to win’, they’ve put a bit of thought in to the whole thing.
Tokyo motor show 2011 - a walkaround review
Fri, 02 Dec 2011Two years ago, in the midst of the worldwide financial crash, the 2009 Tokyo motor show felt like a tiny regional event as Western manufacturers abandoned ship. Not this year. The 2011 Tokyo motor show was different, with Audi (A1 Sportback), BMW (ActiveHybrid 5) and VW (Cross Coupe concept and Passat Alltrack) all unveiling new metal.
