I am selling a true time capsule. This 1969 Ford Fairlane has only 39,000 original documented miles. Absolutely NO RUST ever on this car. It has the original numbers matching 428 Cobra Jet Motor with the factory Ram Air still intact and operational. It's the original 3 speed automatic C6 Trans, and runs perfectly. The interior is all original and in EXCELLENT condition. The original polyglass spare tire is still in the trunk. I have the factory build sheet, protecto plate, Marti Report, and a copy of the original title when purchased new. This car was purchased from the son of the original owner 6 years ago and has been pampered in a climate controlled garage since. The only components ever replaced on the car are the tires, a water pump and a carburetor. I still have the original water pump and carb. The car has been repainted once in the factory color. The paint and chrome are very smooth and shine like new. The interior is in EXCELLENT condition as well with no signs of wear, or sun fading. The under carriage of this car is as clean and rust free as the top. Entire car is VERY clean and in EXCELLENT condition.  The car needs nothing at all....    If you are looking for an ALL Original, extremely low milage, clean honest car, this is the one.   This car drives incredibly well, it's tight, with no squeaks or rattles, and drives as straight as an arrow.  Every once in a great while you come accross a true collector car and this is one of those.  Absolutely nothing to hide and no sales pitch needed, walk in the climate controlled garage and see for yourself.  The car will sell itself and you will NOT be disappointed.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?

Tue, 26 Aug 2014



Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.

Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.

Ford Focus RS ready to make our hot hatch dreams real

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Ford's current hot hatch siblings the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are already two pretty great entries into the segment, but there's always a desire for a little more. Thankfully, it looks like the Blue Oval is ready to satiate that need because it's continuing to test the even more powerful Focus RS around Europe. According to our spy shooters, these shots come from near the Nürburgring.
As with previous photos, Ford engineers continue to heavily camouflage the front end of the RS prototypes, but there's a big difference here. Unlike earlier ones, this example appears to have a closer-to-production-ready front bumper rather than just a horizontal strip for the license plate. That may point to development getting somewhat closer to wrapping up. Although, this one lacks the larger rear wing from prior testers, and the exhaust also appears to be a work in progress with the rear diffuser covered in mesh in these latest shots.
The RS is rumored to be using the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Mustang, but power is reportedly turned up from 310 horsepower in the 'Stang to somewhere between 325 hp and 350 hp for the Focus. Routing all that just through the front wheels could be a recipe for serious torque steer, and all-wheel drive is potentially being used for better traction.
