I have some spare parts i have collected for it. It has a dent in the passenger side front fender. It has a broken rear window latch I haven't been able to find a replacement for. I have it tied together with a piece of wire until I have been able to find that part. It could use a paint job but I like the patina."

This hot rod econoline has been my Family car now for the past 3 years. I've had a lot of fun with it. We recently moved to Utah from the Portland Oregon area (Vancouver, Washington). It has been to several car shows up and down the coast in Oregon and Washington. I came across it by accident. when I traded a bronco I had, it ended up being part of the deal. I wasn't to happy about it at first but after driving it the first time I was sold. Since having it I have had the transmission gone through and re sealed. I have had the brakes re done, the suspension fixed up with new bushings and shocks, It now has power steering which is a huge plus. I also put in a stereo head unit cd player with accessory port, remote, amp, 2-10" speakers in a box, 2 tweets in the dash, 2-6" speakers in the doors and, and 2 6"x9" speakers in the back. Its loud and has good quality sound. The kids love it and its loud enough my deaf daughter can feel the music. I put in some Lincoln leather seats in the front. The stock benches are still in the back they are all in great condition. I put a new head liner in it a couple years ago. Since we have been in Utah I have had new magna flow dual exhaust put on it and had the carb rebuilt. It passes safety and emissions. Its a little cold blooded but when it warms up its a monster. The 302 (5.0) has plenty of power. It is a really good cruiser on the freeway. Nice and smooth and doesn't wander. It has a nice set of slotted mags on it. The rear tires are one size taller than the front so it has a nice rake to it. I have a few more parts that are ready to go on it I just haven't had the time since moving. They will go with it if you want them. Power brake bracket, booster and master. (that setup is hard to find). A fresh re-cored 4 core radiator. (it's also bigger out of a motor home) the little radiator in it now is fine but gets a little warm for my liking. Also an extra vent, some lights and a hood. This rig is hard to find parts for, so when I have found them I got them. This is still my family car and I drive it regularly. This van is definitely outside of the norm. But its rust free and a lot of fun to drive, it gets a lot of attention.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.

2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
