I bought this to work on with my son...Going to go another direction. He is wanting to build a T Bucket.
The car is solid for the most part, rust along trunk lid-it will need to be replaced, We were going to take all the side chrome off and slick it out. The bumpers have been painted as well as most of the trim. The frame above the rear axle has been prior repaired, someone used plate steel and rough cut it. The underside of the car has some type of under coating on it.
The inside is really good, top is good, carpet good, seat good,tires have tread on them. The car runs really rough, have messed with it a little, there is 1/2 tank of gas in it, have had 2 different mechanic types tell me it may be the gas, added additive it does run a little better, the choke wire is off of it, that may be part of the issue?? The former owner stated it has only been driven 4-5 times in last 3 years, gas stinks, we have only had it for a month or so. The car does run and drive, it just runs really rough. Will need to be trailered home.
The left side of grill mounting tab is broken, the AC does not work. There is a piece of trim on right front fender that is missing, some has dents and dings in it. Trim has been painted. Crack in dash pad.
Windows and top all work really well, glass is OK.
Mileage shows 68,427- the title shows different 76,520, the guy we bought it from said there was a typo on the title, in order to get fixed they would have had to go back to the original owner to get fixed and she is dead...The inside of car, top, pedals look right for miles, the title shows different than what the car has. So I am selling as unknown miles.

Ford adds 850 jobs to build 2015 F-150
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Pickup trucks tend not to advance at quite the same pace as the rest of the industry. That's what makes the new Ford F-150 so remarkable, jettisoning its old steel construction in favor of aluminum. It's a game changer that Ford is betting big on, and in anticipation of surging demand, the Blue Oval automaker is adding 850 new jobs to put the thing together.
Those 850 new employees will be centered at Ford's Rouge complex in Michigan - with 300 at Dearborn Stamping, 50 more at Dearborn Diversified and 500 at the Dearborn Truck facility, the latter of which has already kicked off what Ford describes as "the largest manufacturing transformation in decades." Old manufacturing equipment is being replaced with the latest technologies, and even the Ford Rouge Factory Tour is undergoing a complete overhaul.
The new jobs come as part of the commitments Ford made to the UAW in 2011 to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the United States by 2015 - a number which Ford has already exceeded at 14,000. Over 4,000 of those are centered in southeastern Michigan.
Ford car-camo artist works his craft on Australia's new Falcon XR8
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Ford is among the kings of concealment when it comes to test cars. On one recent Mustang SVT mule, the automaker went to the extreme of putting baffles over the exhausts to hide how many there were. Sounds like a lot of work, right? In a new video, the Blue Oval has decided to take fans behind the scenes to show them what it takes to camouflage a prototype. In this case the subject was the recently unveiled 2014 Falcon XR8 for Australia.
Ford's prototype build coordinator Down Under has the very appropriate name of Neil Trickey, and it's his job to obfuscate the important bits of test cars to keep them out of spy shooters' camera lenses. Trickey calls his job a "dark art," and he shows off some of the tricks of his trade in the video. It turns out that the fabric we often see on mules is a type of lycra, but his team isn't above getting out a can of spray paint to conceal parts, too.
Scroll down to watch a video about a man who you probably wish could be a little worse at his job.
Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Ford has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.
