This 1986 Crown Victoria was a Florida car all of its life so there is no rust underneath and only on the drivers door in fact due to a scrape while my dad was driving it. I have the full service history on the car(receipts) from Goodyear of Brooksville Florida. There are no dents, just not a good paint job on the door. This was my dad's car until he passed away in '96. About 5 years ago I put new brakes on it and a new exhaust and a new fuel tank and fuel pump. However now after starting it the other day and driving it around the neighborhood I notice that the fuel gauge does not work...that came with the pump and so I am guessing that Father Time did something. The other things that do not function correctly are the A/C, that works but the R12 leaks out, the fuel gauge as I mentioned, the dash pad is cracked badly around the speaker hole, the glove box door opening button or knob is broken and would need replacement and set of tires probably. Now the tires hold air and they only have about twenty thousand miles on them but they are old and so there is the reason why I listed the tires. The engine runs good, leaks a little oil while sitting, but does not smoke, the transmission shifts good and there are no noises from the rear end. So here is the scoop, I am selling the car and telling you that you could use this car as a drive to work car, driver, or for parts. For an almost thirty year old car this ain't bad! There is no warranty implied and it is a buy as is sale. You must pick it up locally. The car is in Grayslake Illinois.
You must have a Pay Pal account and pay a non refundable deposit of $500.00 within 48 hours of the auctions end. The balance to be paid in full within 3 days of the auctions end. Local pick up only. No warranty on this vehicle as it has over 68,000 miles on it.

Ford EcoBoost smashes records at Daytona
Thu, 10 Oct 2013Some mighty machines have lapped the banks of the Daytona International Speedway over the years: thunderous V8-powered stock cars, Le Mans-conquering Group C prototypes, open-wheel Champ Cars, knee-dragging superbikes... heck, the infield lake has even hosted powerboat racing. But this - this is the fastest car ever to lap the legendary raceway.
What you're looking at is the new Daytona Prototype being prepared by Riley Technologies for the new United SportsCar Championship. The car, released just last week, is powered by a new 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 from Ford's EcoBoost family, and just obliterated the top speed at the track with a blistering 222.971 miles per hour through the traps.
That's enough to annihilate the previous record that was set, also under Ford power, by Bill Elliott while placing his Thunderbird on pole for the 1987 Daytona 500 that he would go on to win. His 210.364 mph record had stood for 26 years until now.
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank
Mon, 07 Apr 2014Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.
