Up for bids is a very nice 1968 Ford LTD Galaxie Brougham. I would say it is in good overall shape. I bought this car to tinker with but I don't get to drive it much so I am selling it. Car can be used as a daily driver or can be fully restored. The car has a great sounding 390 V-8 engine which runs great. The transmission shifts fine. Tires look to be new and the car cruises at 75 mph with no shakes or bumps. Headliner is like new and interior is in better than average shape. Front driver seat has two very small holes which could easily be sewed and it looks like maybe there is some gum in one spot. Carpet is in great shape. Dash has some minor waves but no cracks. Woodgrain looks great. All windows roll up and down fine. A great bonus on this car is that the old outdated A/C has been upgraded to a new R-134 system that blows ice cold. AM radio still works fine. Everything that I can see is there with no missing buttons or parts. When I bought the car it had a $1500.00 chrome package to redo the cars chrome in a never opened tube. I will be including this. I never opened the package but was told it was enough to redo the car. The hideaway headlights doors still work like they should. I was told when I bought the car that a new set of headers was just installed. Here are the things I know that are wrong with the car. Heat and defroster do not work. The paint looks great from about 5 feet away but does have a few imperfections in it as I have tried to show in the photos. I believe at one time this car was white and has been painted red. All in all this car could be used as a daily driver without doing one thing to it. Get in and drive it home. Call or text Lee at 843-230-6963 with questions or to test drive. |

Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
Ford Escort returns, just not for US
Sat, 19 Apr 2014Ford is set to give the burgeoning Chinese market its very own C-segment model, while also reviving one of the brand's more notable nameplates. The new Escort, which will make its world debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show will be built in the People's Republic at the Changan Ford joint venture facility.
The Escort's exterior is best thought of as a mix of the finer points from the US market Focus and Fusion, with the Aston Martin-ish grille and narrow, wraparound taillights presenting a clean look at either end of the car. It's all fairly true to the concept car from last year's Shanghai Motor Show. That said, this exterior job is almost too clean. There doesn't seem to be a lot of character or substance beyond the typical Ford looks.
There's a similar issue in the cabin - it all looks pretty nice, but the design is rather plain, particularly when viewed alongside the display-filled cabin of a US-spec car. Still, there looks to be a fair amount of space in both the front and back seats, and the trunk isn't exactly tiny, either.
NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
