THIS LOOKS LIKE THE CAR I DROVE IN HIGH SCHOOL. "MY BOYFRIEND" WRECKED THE ORIGINAL. I BOUGHT THIS ONE IN 2008 TO CELEBRATE 10 YEARS AS A CANCER SURVIVOR. NOW I FIND MYSELF WIDOWED AND ON SOCIAL SECURITY----SO....
THE COLOR IS CALLED PEACOCK BLUE AND THE PAINT IS IN GREAT SHAPE, AS THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED AND COVERED SINCE IT WAS PAINTED. THE BACK SEAT HAS THE ORIGINAL UPHHOLSTERY AND IS IN GOOD SHAPE. THE FRONT BUCKET SEATS WERE REUPHOLSTERED WITH THE ORIGINAL FACTORY TYPE COVERS. SHE HAS A NEW DASHBOARD PAD AND COVER, A NEW TOP AND A NEW BOOT. THE CARPET IS ORIGINAL . THE FRONT FLOOR MATS ARE CUSTOM MADE. THE GAS GAUGE "BOUNCES" AROUND SO I ALWAYS FILL HER UP WHEN I GET IN (IT'S A GIRL THING). THE SPEEDOMETER WOBBLES OVER 60 MPH. THE SUN VISOR BRACKET ON THE SHOTGUN SIDE BROKE THE LAST TIME I DROVE IT. I'LL TRY TO FIND A REPLACEMENT AND FIX IT.
THE HEATER WORKS GOOD BUT SINCE MY GOAL WAS TO RESTORE HER TO AS NEAR ORIGINAL AS POSSIBLE THERE IS NO AC. THE ORIGINAL AM RADIO IS INCLUDED BUT I'VE NEVER TRIED IT. THE ONE IN THE CAR IS AN AFTER MARKET BUT IT DOESN'T PICK UP MANY STATIONS. THE CLOCK WAS REPLACED BUT IT IS CURRENTLY 'RESTING' AND HASN'T BEEN DIAGNOSED YET. ALL OF THE WINDOWS OPERATE EXACTLY AS THEY DID 50 YEARS AGO WITH KNOBS AND GOOD BICEPS. IT PASSED TEXAS INSPECTION IN NOVEMBER 2012 SO ALL OF THE TURN SIGNALS AND LIGHTS WORK.
THE WHITEWALL TIRES ARE IN GOOD SHAPE AND THE WHITEWALL SPARE HAS NEVER BEEN ON THE GROUND. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL HUBCAPS BUT THE ONES ON IT ARE WHAT WE CALLED 'SPOKES'. MOST OF THE CHROME IS ORIGINAL AND LOOKS GREAT. TWO PIECES WERE REPLACED WHEN THE CAR WAS PAINTED. SOME OF THE CHROME HAS VERY MINOR DENTS AND SCRATCHES.
NOW FOR THE MAN STUFF: IT HAS A 390 CID WITH APPROX. 95,000 ORIGINAL MILES AND A FORD 4 BARREL CARBURETOR AND AN ELECTRONIC POINTLESS IGNITION. THE SPARK PLUG WIRES, SPARK PLUGS, DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND VALVE COVER GASKETS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. SHE HAS POWER STEERING BUT NOT POWER BRAKES. SHE HAS DUAL EXHAUST WITH GLAS-PAC TYPE MUFFLERS. IT ALSO HAS A SERVICE MANUAL AND A WIRING SCHEMATIC INCLUDED. IT HAS THE OLD TYPE BUMPER JACK.
THE CAR DRIVES GOOD---USING THE STANDARDS OF 50 YEARS AGO. SHE HAS SURVIVED IN MUCH BETTER SHAPE THAN MOST FOLKS OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER HER. IT BREAKS MY HEART TO LET HER GO SO PLEASE: TO A GOOD HOME. I'M SURE THERE ARE THINGS I FORGOT SO PLEASE EMAIL QUESTIONS. WE INVESTED 35K INTO HER BUT ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED. ...
NOW THIS IS THE PART I'M 'SUPPOSED' TO PUT: ALL BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 10 FEEDBACKS NEED TO ASK BEFORE BIDDING OR THE BID MIGHT BE CANCELLED. THE SUCCESSFUL HIGH BIDDER WILL SUBMIT $1000 - NON REFUNDABLE - PAYMENT DEPOSIT WITH PAYPAL WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION TO SECURE THE VEHICLE. FINAL PAYMENT WILL BE U.S.BANK CHECK, BANK WIRE TRANSFER OR CASH DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF CLOSE OF AUCTION. ITS THE BUYERS OBLIGATION TO ARRANGE FOR SHIPPING. ALL FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS MUST BE COMPLETE BEFORE DELIVERY OF VEHICLE. FINAL PAYMENT THROUGH PAYPAL IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
Ford Mustang GT350 drops some camo
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Now that we've poured over the 2015 Ford Mustang in its standard form, it's time to look ahead. We already knew (and heard - literally) that Ford was working on a higher-performance version of its 'Stang to replace the Shelby GT500, and earlier reports have stated that it will simply be called the GT350.
We don't have a ton of detail to go on, but this latest set of spy photos clearly shows a hood-mounted air scoop, which suggests a forced-induction powerplant is under the hood. However, this disagrees with earlier reports that the GT350 will be all motor, using a naturally aspirated engine to send massive horsepower to the rear wheels. Our spies also point out the functional vent aft of the front wheels to allow for better airflow, and the massive quad exhaust pipes can be seen, clear as day.
Expect to see the Mustang GT350 in April, when it debuts at the New York Auto Show in conjunction with the Pony's 50th anniversary. In the meantime, have a look at our gallery above to see the latest shots of the hot Mustang out testing.
