First delivered new in 1997 to the Riverside OH Police Department as a duty cruiser, it was bought by a local car collector at 17,000 miles, after a minor nose accident took it out of service. The collector took it to Custom Coach Builders in Lima OH, a hearse and flower car builder, with the task of turning it into a station wagon. Custom Coach used a mid-90's rear end from a Mercury Sable, plus new sheet metal from the rear side doors back, to turn it into a factory-looking wagon. The collector then took it to a high end auto upholsterer, who redid the seats and the roof liner, then installed the rear-facing third seat. It also has nice late 90's Mercury Grand Marquis wheels. The rear window opens separately from the rear deck door. I swapped out the original radio for a Kenwood radio/cd/Sirius player.

It sat in a heated garage until I bought it in Feb. of 2010, when it had 23,500 miles. Before buying it, I verified that it was a true P71 full Interceptor, and that it had a clean CarFax and title. I installed a class 3 hitch and electric trailer brake, so I could occasionally pull a boat trailer. I garaged it and drove it to work on Fridays before I retired in Nov., 2012, and the car now has 40,600 miles and is extremely well maintained (absolutely no rust.)

The tires have 10-12,000 remaining wear and no services will need to be done before the happy buyer takes across country. Interceptors have a special speed chip, two radiators, a transmission cooler, heavy duty suspension and an anti-sway bar. It will likely do 140 mph, as noted on the certified speedometer. I have magnetic badges that I apply when I take it to car shows (LAPD Badge # 714 and US Navy Shore Patrol.). Always a hit at car shows, the car guys know that Ford didn't build a big wagon after 1991, but they all agree that if built by the factory, it would look just like mine.

I sold the boat and bought a Class C RV, so I no longer need my big rig. It is garaged in Raymond ME, not far from the Portland airport. 631-813-9006 for more information.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.

2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]

Sat, 28 Jun 2014

When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."

This unique '64 Mustang was Edsel Ford II's first car

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

You probably had the same dream when you were a teenager. Your sixteenth birthday is coming up, or Christmas, or maybe both, and all you want is a muscle car to call your own. That dream has come true for some, and one of them was none other than Edsel Ford II.
Henry Ford's great grandson turned 16 on December 27, 1964 - two days after Christmas and eight months after the original Mustang went on sale. And that's just what was waiting for him in the driveway, courtesy of his father (and reigning chief executive) Henry Ford II.
The specially-prepared pony car had a pearlescent cream paintjob with narrow blue racing stripes, functional hood scoop, chrome trim, Euro-spec fender-mounted mirrors, a blue leather and aluminum interior, a monogrammed fuel cap... and a 289-cubic-inch V8 under the hood.
