99% rust free!  The doors close so factory firm, there's a ping to them. 

I purchased this from the grandson of the original 1970 purchaser.  Approximately 1000 miles put on it since 1991 (maintenance sticker is on the door dated 1991 with 32,500 or so miles logged; the grandfather passed away shortly after).    Always garaged since new.  Grandpa used it for rock hunting hobby in Wyoming (only in the clear weather times).  He also had an International 4x4 truck that was used for most transportation & some rock hunting. 

There is a wood shelf mounted that Grandpa had for his dog to sit on behind his head (can be removed).  A grab handle is on the passenger side of the dash which was for Grandma to pull herself into Bronco.  Grandpa also must have discovered black spray sealent as you can see in the engine compartment.  Sealed any possibility of air leaks around all cables, etcetera.  He also kind of shielded areas where rocks might grab in the tires, fly up, scratch or dent the underside.  As mentioned he'd go 4 wheel'n to look for his rock gems.  Where there's rocks there's pebbles which get caught in tire tread & fly.  He probably had more rough ready tires at that time.  The 4x4 hubs lock/unlock and works.  The floor 4x4 engager is stiff, but gets all ranges.  1000 miles since 1991 needs some lube spraying for sure.  No water leaks, overheating, or oil smoke (at start up or driving).  All gauges work correctly.  I have not tried the tank switch yet (not sure how it works but will read up on it).  Everything works (lights, roll up windows, forgot to push horn to fry-will report when know).  Glass is almost perfect with the windshield having two BB/stone spots on the passenger side, but all clear/no cracks/no fogging/no seperation.  According to the grandson, the top has never been off and the windshield has never been down.  The rear hatch lift window & tailgate work as new.  Locks all work.

Has two gas tanks, the original jack parts/spare, some small parts, two old type flares, four oil filters/old oil cans & an old fashoned magnetic trouble light.  The original air cleaner assembly is included (original carb was replaced).

Other pictures are available including one of the original air cleaner (in excellent condition), engine, wheel wells, more floor areas, etc.  Two locking gas caps w/keys are in parts (previous owner/grandson liked the blue painted caps.  Grandson said he changed oil-filter.  He drained the water system for most of the storage period after he inherited it.  He added new antifreeze to the empty system a couple weeks ago do to selling decision.  That decision was due to divorce.  Other new items: shocks & fuel pump.

Has original rubber floor mat.  Vehicle ID plates are in correct places.  Florida title.

Ford gathering data to improve how bikes and car interact

Tue, Jul 7 2015

More than a hundred years ago, the Ford Motor Company changed the landscape of US cities with its cars, and the company is once again trying to disrupt the way Americans move around their metropolises by ditching four wheels for two. Ford is hoping data will make the difference in its quest to create a city friendly to both cars and bikes with what it calls a "mobility experiment" known as Info Cycle. Engineers are riding bikes with data sensors on the front fork around the tech town of Palo Alto, CA, according to CityLab. This data is analyzed and made public on Ford's open-source site called OpenXC. The sensors record everything from speed to temperature to ambient light. Ford hopes the data give city governments and biking activists the tools they need to make roads safer for all travelers. Along with data gathered from cars, Ford hopes to foster a better urban ecosystem for both bikers and drivers. Ford has tried to crack into the bike market before, but concepts like the Think and e-bike were never fully realized or came to market too early to capitalize on the current transportation revolution. Now that car ownership and miles driven are down and alternative modes of transportation are catching on in the United States, Ford wants to be on the cutting edge of the mobile revolution. Earlier this year, Ford introduced the MoDe:Flex, an electric bike concept, along with the previously announced MoDe:Me and MoDe:Pro.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
