1955 Ford Sunliner Base 4.4l on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
Very nice car that is fun to drive. Mechanically it is very sound. Has new radial tires with under 500 miles on them. I have owned the car for 5 years, purchased it from another person who owned several collector cars. He owned the car at one time and bought it back after restoration, then sold it to me. I have done some work on the car to improve it during my ownership, including the tires, new hubcaps, gauge repairs, door and window alignment, and front end sector shaft and bushing replacements and front seat belt additions. Ford O Matic transmission, 272 cubic inch Y block V8 engine with 2 barrel carb. Brakes work great but are not power, manual steering as well. The top is in good condition. The power top cylinder lines have been replaced and pump reconditioned. The chrome is good and the car has a continental kit. I am not sure if the radio works, it is missing a speaker wire. I do have 3 older style wheel covers which will come with the car. It is a very attractive car that presents well. Exterior is straight and basic paint is good. It looks like a full paint job was done at restoration. Note there are a couple of paint chips/flakes and two small bubbles above the passenger fender skirt. The car is used seasonally while I am in Arizona and is garaged when not in use. The new owner will drive it with pride, it always gets thumbs up, honks and waves when I drive it.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.
