Up for auction is a 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Convertible Sunliner.

This was a father son project that we took in on trade. I don't know much about it, but will describe it to the best of my ability. Do NOT Assume anything about this car. Please email any questions you have after reading the entire ad, and I will respond to the best of my knowledge.

This is a Mid 50's convertible that runs and drives, it will be a great project car!

The floor pans have been patched, it has had rockers and quarter panels put on it. The inner wheel houses are original. Body work is roughed in and needs finish work on the right rocker panel. All of the body panels need to be a little better aligned. we just rebuilt the master cylinder and we put 2 new wheel cylinders on the front. It runs but needs the carburetor rebuilt. The previous owner put a new fuel pump on it, but it needs the fuel tank cleaned. We have all of the parts in a pile and will in the next couple of days add pictures, but from what we can tell all of the parts are there. It has a 312 4 barrel with a rebuilder tag on it, I don't know how many miles ago that it was rebuilt, it seems to run good and does not smoke. The car will only start in the neutral position, the neutral safety switch needs to be adjusted. This car has no exhaust, there is 6 inches of pipe off each manifold. All of the top bows are there and in good shape, there is no canvas. The seats and back panels need to be reupholstered. The dash is complete. The bottom of the car is very clean, looks like someone has cleaned, painted and undercoated it. I will also add pictures of the bottom of the car. The jack and tire iron are still in the trunk.

There is a $1000 Nonrefundable deposit due on this car within 24 of end of auction.

Full payment must be received within 7 days of the end of auction.

Car will not leave until funds have been cleared.

This car is listed locally, so I reserve the right to end this listing at anytime.

There is no reserve, if you serious about this car send us a offer, but don't waste our time or yours with low ball offers.

We are not responsible for Transporting this car, buyer is responsible for all transportation costs.

Buyer must have a feedback score of 10 or notify us prior to placing bid or we will cancel your bid.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.
