California car that was brought to Illinois in 1993. Since then has been in garage storage. Belonged to an elderly gent that just could not part with it. This car is in exceptional shape for the year.( Interior ) The all original leather interior is in very good shape as you can see.  The headliner is in the same great shape.The dash pad is cracked and there is minor sun bleaching on door panels ( Exterior Body ) This car has very little rust. The floor boards are solid as a rock as is the trunk floor. The trunk does have some surface rust but no rust through.Fenders are very straight except a couple of dings that are to expected for a car this old.The bumpers are straight but need to be re-chromed.All chrome trim is on the car with exception of the trunk lock and cover.

( Mechanically ) The car has 47,695 original miles on it. It will start and run. The trans does shift through the gears.I do not have the keys for this car but it will turn over by crossing the starter terminals. We have been turning the motor over periodically since the start of storage. This car does need a new fuel pump and some misc repairs. All in all, this is a very easy restore for someone that is mechanically inclined.I will be installing a new battery tomorrow. The brakes seem to work fine but should be checked before driving.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.

2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.

Ford unveils Mustang 50th anniversary logo, plans merchandise

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

The Ford Mustang turns 50 years old this year, and this is the logo that will announce the milestone occasion on a special line of merchandise. The graphic is the result of an internal design competition, and Ford will give 50 different companies the license to use it on traditional logo merchandise like shirts and watches, along with some untraditional items like pinball machines.
Ford is going to begin the celebrations at this week's New York Auto Show and continue them throughout the year, but April 17 is the official birthday of the the pony car that just won't quit. You can expect to start seeing anniversary merchandise in the next couple of weeks.
