Selling my 1993 Ford Probe GT. I purchased this car from my friend, who drove it regularly on 40+ mile trips.
I drove the car daily to school (10 miles each way), and also made many trips that were over 50 miles, with a few weeks where I was putting nearly 100 miles on it daily. I absolutely love this car, but unfortunately cannot afford to keep it anymore.
Power Windows work
Power Door Locks work
Custom Exhaust (sounds great!)
Front Wheel drive (great for snow)
Front wipers and sprayers work
Rear wiper and sprayer works
5 speed manual transmission, no rattling or noise
Clutch works fine, no issue driving
Lights go up and down with no problems, and do not get stuck.
All lights, exterior and interior, work (including fog lights)
Radio works well, CD player works. Aux input jack is a little loose, but still works.
Car also has antilock brakes (ABS) and driver airbag
A few months ago, I started this car and heard some noise (at idle). I took it to the mechanic, who could not figure it out. During this time, my distributor went out (great luck..).
I got a new distributor so my mechanic could work on the car, but he was unable to pinpoint the issue. Many others have said it is possibly a piston ring issue, rocker or a valve issue, but I don't have the time to look into it unfortunately. I returned the distributor since I didn't need it. As such, the car must be towed in its current state. If you add a distributor, the car WILL RUN, but will just make a loud ticking engine noise.
Would be a great car for someone to work on or restore.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014
The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
