1978 Ford Courier, 1.8L engine, 5 speed manual transmission, 93726 miles. The truck is in good mechanical condition. The body is in descent shape. There are a few small dents and dings on the truck and the front bumper has a dent in it on the passenger side. The paint is faded, with some surface rust, more on the passenger side than on the driver's side. The interior is in good shape. The dash pad is cracked, mostly around where the speaker is. Seat and door panels are in good shape. All the glass is good. The floor pans are also in great shape.I bought this truck a couple years ago with 85k original miles and title in hand. After I purchased it, I rebuilt the carb, replaced the brakes, cleaned the gas tank and put new tires on it. I started driving it to work, 38 miles each way and averaged 30-32mpg. Local driving it averaged 28-30 mpg. After driving it a little while I noticed that the valve guide seals were dried out, so I had the head removed and a complete valve job done. The truck runs great and does not smoke. The only issues I'm aware of is the turn signal return inside the steering column is broken out so you have to manually turn the turn signals off and the emergency brake connector inside the passenger side rear wheel is broken. This truck would be great for a daily driver or for restoration. I have tried to describe this vehicle the best I can and I hope the pictures help out. Mileage may increase a small amount during auction. I reserve to end the auction. Cash purchase or Certified Cashiers Check. All money will clear before vehicle is released. (706)983-1063 Joey Thanks

Autoblog Podcast #317:
Ford Escort testing, may be bound for Europe
Tue, 01 Apr 2014There has been little news about Ford's China-focused Escort concept since debuting at last year's Shanghai Motor Show, but the no-frills sedan has shown its camouflaged face again during cold weather testing in Northern Sweden. While far from a guarantee, the test location might hint that the Blue Oval plans to market the car outside of Asia.
The Escort's black robe and zebra paint make it hard to tell if anything specific has changed about the design, but the shape of the sedan looks close to what was shown in Shanghai. Under the disguise, you can still make out the hexagonal front grille from the concept. When Ford announced the model, the company said that the design wasn't supposed to be "arrogant or pretentious," and it certainly achieved that. The engine range is still a mystery, but it seems safe to expect small, economy-focused powertrains.
A report from last year indicated that Ford may be considering broadening the new Escort beyond Asia and possibly even selling it in Europe. The fact that the company brought it to Sweden for testing could bolster that argument. A release date hasn't been set yet, but the automaker has promised 15 new products for China by 2015. The basic sedan could be on the road soon.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
