Here for your consideration is a 1957 Ford Fairlane Wagon that is one of the best I've seen in several years. The wagon is from Colorado, where salt on roads was rarely used, thus it does not have the typical cancer that you see on these old wagons. The car has never bee hit. The rear gate and rear glass are very solid and operate as they should. All of the folding assemblies inside the car work properly. The only required rust repair is in the floorpans, none of which is large enough to warrant panel replacement, but rather forming patch panels and installing. The is very minor rust in the lower corners as pictured, again, not enough to replace panels, but simply repair. If you are familiar with these wagons, you will agree that this is a solid of a '57 you are going to find these days. I have not tried to crank the engine, so I know nothing about it's condition. This is also a power steering car which is a fairly rare option on and old wagon. I have a clear NC title in my name for this car. I have no documentation, but the condition of the car seems to indicate the the 82000 miles is original. Again, this is the easiest 57 wagon project you are going to find, don't let it get away. Buyer is responsible for transporting thcat to it's new home, but I can help find a transporter, depending on where you are located. I reserve the right to end this listing at any time, as I have the car listed for sale locally. Full payment need to be made within two weeks of auction's end. The car can stay here for 60 days if needed. Thanks for looking.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Ford looks to space robots to improve car-to-car communications [w/video]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Ford has partnered with St. Petersburg Polytechnic University for three years to research various kinds of connected vehicle communications. The university tie-up is part of its study of space robots, NASA systems created to enable space-to-Earth communication, and the university's own development of systems that enable communication between the International Space State and Earth.
The objective is for Ford to engineer layers of robust networks and redundancy systems that will allow your car to speak to other cars, to emergency vehicles, to infrastructure like traffic lights and buildings, and to the cloud. Benefits would come in just about every area of transit, from avoiding accidents, to getting medical workers to an accident more quickly, to improving the flow of traffic during rush hour.
Check out the press release below for details on what Ford wants to learn from the JUSTIN Humanoid and NASA Robonaut R2, and a video of technical leader Oleg Gusikhin discussing his interest in the project.

Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.
