This car was born in california, raised in Vegas and brought to Michigan for restoration. Being a solid Western car, we chose to go over board and make it better than new.. In doing so, we had some minor modifications made to the body and interior. These modifications were designed to make it a show car, with best of show ability. This has paid off well, with best of show wins and many trophy's, including Good Guys. The minor modifications are as follows.

The brite work was replated with cu., ni, ch., and the aluminum was re anodised. All the stainless trim was removed and restored and polished as new.

The body was striped and blocked to remove factory imperfections.

The paint is base clear, Guards Red, that was color sanded and polished to a mirror finish.

The car was lowered 3'' and fitted with rear air shocks to be used when required. This did not effect the smooth ride.

The wheels were changed from 14" to 15" chrome smoothies and dressed with radial white wall tires. That improved the ride and handeling.

The hood and doors were shaved, with keyless enrty for the drivers door, controled by the key fob.

The lake pipes are decrotive and are not connected.

The interior was done in briliant pearl white, which refects the heat so well, that it is comfortable in the hot sun.

The convertible top is white and has recently recieved a new top motor and lines, to make it perform like new.

The engine came with the car, I don't think it's original, but is period correct and was rebuilt about 4000 miles ago.The engine was fitted with petronics and a new 4V.

The transmission is a standard shift three speed , with over drive, which makes it comfortable as a interstate cruiser.

The dual exhaust has glass pacs along the exhaust extensions, I which I call echo cans and are 3 1/2" X 18" and produce a low pleasant tone.

We have had a lot of fun with this car and it's the best in the collection, but age has crept up on us, so it's time for it to find a new home. Having sold are other cars, we have found that the new owners have become friends and hope this is the same with the Sunliner. We will continue to attend shows, but it will be with our 49 Merc, which is where it all started.

Thanks for looking

PS: The car has been driven to local shows, but yes, it's a trailer queen for the out of town shows.

Mysterious small Ford spied in Germany

Sat, 29 Jun 2013

Our spy photographers have just popped off a few shots of something curious. This little runabout was spotted in Germany out testing with a current-generation Ford Fiesta. We're fairly confident the machine is a Ford, but exactly which Ford model is up for debate. The hatchback could be the next-generation Ka, but we've also heard that the Blue Oval supermini might not get a replacement. Our shooter says the five-door is a bit smaller than the current Fiesta, though there is a chance that this rig is just an engineering mule for drivetrain development. Then again, it could be a model built specifically for the South African market or China, or not a Ford at all.
Whatever it is and wherever it's headed, you can check out in the gallery for a closer look before heading into Comments to weigh in with your best guess.

Ford recalls over 500,000 trucks and SUVs, including Explorer, F-150, and Lincoln Aviator

Fri, Aug 30 2019

For the second time in a month, Ford is recalling the brand-new 2020 Explorer and 2020 Lincoln Aviator for minor safety issues. This recall, which also affects certain 2018-2020 Ford F-150s, 2019-2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty trucks, 2018-2019 Ford Explorers, and 2019-2020 Ford Expeditions, pertains to potentially faulty seat-back reclining mechanisms. In total, the recall touches 550,186 vehicles. A mechanical part meant for relaxation and comfort has the Ford Motor Company stressin'. Ford says potentially affected vehicles might be missing the "third pawl required for seat-back strength" in the reclining mechanisms on certain seats. Because of this, the seats might not properly keep a person in place during the event of a crash or otherwise. In the F-150s, F-Series Super Duty trucks, 2018-2019 Explorers, and Expeditions, the recall affects vehicles with manual driver and/or front passenger seat-back recliners. On the 2020 Explorers and Lincoln Aviators, rear outboard seats with manual recliners are of concern. Of the more than 550,000 vehicles, 483,325 vehicles are in the United States, 58,712 are in Canada and 8,149 are in Mexico. Thus far, Ford is not aware of any injuries from the issues. Ford says it expects most vehicles will not need repair, but dealers will inspect the seat structures out of precaution. If fault is found, dealers will replace the seat structure altogether. For this recall, Ford's reference number is 19C07. Contact your dealer for more information. Featured Gallery 2020 Ford Explorer View 47 Photos Recalls Ford Lincoln Truck SUV

Ford debuts Fusion NASCAR racer that edges closer to stock [w/video]

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

The sixth-generation NASCAR Sprint Cup racecar, which will make its competition debut at the 2013 Daytona 500 this weekend, marks the closest thing to a "stock car" that the sport has seen in more than 20 years. No longer using just stickers to distinguish the different brands, the image above shows the lengths NASCAR and automakers went in order to create a racecar design that more closely resembles the individual cars they represent.
Ford, one of the more open and vocal OEMs regarding the Gen6 car's development, is giving us a closer look at its racing version of the Fusion with a pretty revealing side-by-side comparison with last years' racer (click above for an expanded view). Aside from the more realistic front end and production-like body lines, the overall shape, dimensions and proportions have also been designed to give the racecar a more stock appearance. Most of the new racer was designed by the Ford Design Center, which the automaker says was the first time it has been so involved in the design process since the 1960s. Of course, one area the Sprint Cup Fusion really differs from the production Fusion is its Ford Racing 5.8-liter V8 producing around 850 hp. Can you say Fusion SVT?
Scroll down for a quick video from Ford Racing showing a production Fusion morph into a Cup car.
