Download or read book Ford Torino and Fairlane written by Paul Mclaughlin and published by Enthusiast Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some of the most popular cars that left the Ford factories in the 1960s and 1970s carried the names of Torino, Fairlane, Fairlane 500, Fairlane GT, Torino GT, Cobra, Talladega, Thunderbolt, Torino Brougham, Torino Squire, Torino Sport, and Elite. Prior to the 1962 Ford model year, the Ford Fairlanes were full size automobiles. That all changed when the Ford Motor Company decided that America needed a resized Ford that fit between the compact Falcon and their full-size Galaxies, and thus was born the new mid-size Ford Fairlanes. Those new Fairlanes would be joined by the upscale Torino models in the 1968 model year and over the course of fourteen years from 1962 through 1976 Ford would ship over 5.25 million of these cars... including one for this author. Right from the start these Fairlanes and Torinos were designed and equipped to appeal to a wide range of customers; from the cost conscious customer who liked the "Plain Jane" basic Fairlane sedans to the Torino buyers who liked the upgraded trim and convenience items found in their Broughams, Sports, GTs, Squires, and Elites. In addition, Ford offered a wide range of performance oriented Fairlane GTs, Thunderbolts, Torino GTs, Cobras, and Talladegas equipped their 289 "Hi-Po", 351, 390, 427, 460,428, and 429 Cobra Jet and Super Cobra engines. For Ford enthusiasts, the 1960s and 1970s were loaded with interesting cars and trucks that we fondly remember now. In this book we will cover all the different mid-size Fairlane and Torino models that Ford offered from the very first models built for 1962 as well as the last models built here in the United States in 1976. As a bonus we will also cover Ford's racing history from that period when modified Fairlane and Torino models were racing and winning on tracks from coast to coast and helping to promote the performance image of these special Ford cars.

This book was released on 2020-03-15 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relive Ford’s glory days in the muscle car era in this stunning new volume covering the popular and powerful Cobra Jets! Ford’s “Total Performance” racing program in the early 1960s was the first stone turned in the task of repurposing its image to the youth market. The introduction of the Mustang increased that exponentially, but even in 289 Hi-Po form it was no match for the Pontiac GTO or other muscle cars. Neither was the 1966 Fairlane GT or subsequent 390 Mustang the following year. But when the 428 Cobra Jet Mustang debuted at Pomona for the NHRA Winternationals in 1968, that image evolved from wholesome to fearsome! Cobra Jet Mustangs downed all comers and took the vaunted Super Stock Eliminator crown while introducing a new weapon under the hood to serve as fair warning to what was to be uncoiled at the stoplight. By the next model year with the revolutionary shaker hood on Cobra Jet-equipped Mach Is and the striking snake adorning the sheet metal of the midsize Cobra, Ford’s image makeover was complete. The demise of the muscle car era didn’t signify the end of the Cobra Jet, as Ford continued the performance reign with the 351 Cobra Jet. The legacy left by Mustang, Cougar, Torino, Cyclone, and Ranchero 428, 429, and 351 Cobra Jet-powered vehicles is indelible. Mustang Monthly editor Rob Kinnan and muscle car expert Diego Rosenberg bring this history back to life in an all-encompassing book that is the first to specifically feature all Cobra Jet cars, including the purpose-built drag cars of today! Cobra Jet: The History of Ford’s Greatest High Performance Cars will hypnotize you as the first and complete history of Ford’s most famous engines during the era’s peak.

Download or read book Detroit written by Joe Darden and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1990-06-28 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hub of the American auto industry and site of the celebrated Riverfront Renaissance, Detroit is also a city of extraordinary poverty, unemployment, and racial segregation. This duality in one of the mightiest industrial metropolises of twentieth-century North America is the focus of this study. Viewing the Motor City in light of sociology, geography, history, and planning, the authors examine the genesis of modern Detroit. They argue that the current situation of metropolitan Detroit—economic decentralization, chronic racial and class segregation, regional political fragmentation—is a logical result of trends that have gradually escalated throughout the post-World War II era. Examining its recent redevelopment policies and the ensuing political conflicts, Darden, Hill, Thomas, and Thomas, discuss where Detroit has been and where it is going. In the series Comparative American Cities, edited by Joe T. Darden.
