1963 AMC Rambler American 220. Ugly car. I bought this car on EBay in February 2012 and had it shipped in from Oregon. Way more money in it than I will ever get out of it but I don't want to scrap it out. When I got it I either had the carburetor rebuilt or bought another one for it. I also ordered a water pump which was nearly impossible to find. I believe the engine is an L6, not 100% certain. It has been a while since I worked on it. I licensed it and insured it and just cancelled the insurance two days ago. The engine ran great, as far as I could tell. After I had the carburetor work and the water pump replaced and whatever else I had done to it, the transmission got stuck in two gears. Not sure if it was the linkage or the transmission itself. Anyway I got tired of messing with it and parked it and it has been sitting ever since. I have not tried to start it, it has no battery. I'm pretty sure that it is still stuck in two gears. I have an ignition key. I don't think I ever had a trunk key. I have no idea what is in the trunk or what condition it is in. The floor boards are rusted pretty badly. The body is not as bad as a lot of the old Ramblers. It is not all dented up but it does have some rust. A lot of it does not appear to be through the metal. Please check out the pictures and ask any questions that you may have before bidding and I will do my best to answer them. The head liner is still attached and not sagging. The seats have probably two seat covers so I'm not sure what kind of shape the seats are in. At least one, if not two tires are flat. They were up and holding air when I got it. I did drive the car very little. The tires may or may not hold air. I'm pretty sure all four would need replaced should you decide to try and fix the car up. The paint job on the car was done poorly and it is chipping and looks bad. I don't know what else to say about the car. Ask questions if you have them. The new buyer will be responsible for shipping. If the new owner does not live too far, say about two hundred to two hundred fifty miles, I may be able to deliver it at an additional charge depending on distance, tolls, etc. The car will be sold as-is. I do have a clear title in my name. A non refundable payment of $200.00 is due within twenty four hours of auctions end, pay pal will be fine. If for any reason you change your mind about finalizing the deal, the down payment will be non refundable. The balance can be paid in cash when picked up or by pay pal before picking it up. There is no great rush in having it picked up. I know how it is getting a trucking company. Two or three weeks unless we make other arrangements.

Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.

Shelby Cobra, Mercedes 300SL and 1947 Woodie from Petersen Museum headed to auction

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

The changes happening at the Petersen Museum have been making the rounds in major press, but it probably won't be until August 18, during Pebble Beach, when we get the full story on what's happening; that's where and when museum reps plan on announcing the way forward for the SoCal institution. In the meantime, the museum is still reorganizing its collection, and that means auctioning some of its showpieces at this weekend's Auctions America event in Burbank.
Three of the stars are a 1964 Shelby Cobra 289, one of less than 20 produced with a three-speed C-4 automatic transmission, a 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL owned by actor Robert Stack and the last 1948 Ford Sportsman 'Woodie' ever produced. The Cobra, now restored to its original white exterior and red leather interior, was a factory demonstrator that first sold for $5,250. Showing just 38,950 miles on the odometer, its pre-sale estimate is $800,000 to $1 million.
The 300SL is actually a 1957 model but wasn't titled until Robert Stack took possession in 1960. The lead actor in the The Untouchables TV series used to drive by the Sunset Boulevard Mercedes dealership to ogle the car, but couldn't justify spending the money to buy it. When he and the producer of The Untouchables won Emmys for the show, the producer, who happened to be Desi Arnaz, bought the car for Stack. He owned it his whole life, it has been left as Stack drove it and still bears the California license plate "UNTCHBL."

2016 Ford Explorer order guide revealed

Wed, Jan 21 2015

The configurator for the refreshed 2016 Ford Explorer is already up and running. However, if you're the type of person that really likes to dig into the nitty-gritty of a vehicle's features, then the order guide for this latest Ford is now available (pictured right). While the documents don't list fuel economy, engine power or pricing, they give a precise idea of all of the differences separating each of the five trim levels: Base, XLT, Limited, Sport and Platinum. In addition to the tweaked styling across the board, even the Base model now features a rearview camera with a washer. There are also three new colors available: Shadow Black, Blue Jeans Metallic and Guard Metallic. Base, XLT and Limited trims are available with either a 3.5-liter V6 or new, optional 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. All of them are mated to a six-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive is optional with either engine. The new Platinum trim basically loads the Explorer up with everything imaginable. Power comes from the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, matched with all-wheel drive. Plus, the Platinum trim gets standard luxuries like a dual-pane moonroof, adaptive cruise control, a premium sound system and Ford's super-soft Nirvana Leather covering the seats. There are also some new tech features throughout the rest of the lineup. For example, an updated auto-parking system is also available on the Limited but comes standard on the Platinum. Furthermore, a 180-degree front camera and second-row USB charging are optional on the Sport but are standard on the Limited and Platinum. Check out the gallery for even more of the changes.
