I have owned this car for over 12 years. I have enjoyed driving it around town and even with some rust and a few dents, I get a few smiles and thumbs up.
History: I purchased this car from a friend who owned it new (per her story, never confirmed). It was an anniversary gift from her husband at that time. They lived at the Air Force Base located just outside of Lompoc, CA. She told me that car was purchased at the local Ford dealer in Lompoc. I have the original owners manual but the persons name inside has been blacked out. She drove the car to work every day until about 1991 when it was put in the garage for about 9-10 years. I worked with the owner at that time and we made arrangements to view the car. It had not been driven or started all that time. We agreed on a price and with a change of gas, oil and battery, she started after a few spins. The car was re painted by her son in High School but he didn't do the best in body work and some rust has come through after sitting on the coast at the Air Force Base.
I had the front end and rear end rebuilt. It has a new radiator. Tires are good. Exhaust system is newer. Brake system was worked on right after I bought it. The interior is not original but it looks great outside of needing new door panels.
The car comes with: 2 front fenders, 2 rear panels and a reclining front passenger seat from a parts car. Rebuilt AM/Radio/8 Track player, additional skirts, hubcaps and lots of extra parts. She starts and runs great. I don't see any blue coming out when you are driving and/or starting it but she has a few leaks here and there.
I hate to see this car go. It has been good to me and always makes me smile when I am driving around down but do to the loss of a job a while back, going without a job for a while, now having a job but need to move out of state, I think its time for her to move on to someone that can and wants to do more with her.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
Find out if the Ford Fiesta ST can match Europe's latest hot hatches
Tue, 11 Feb 2014The V8 grunt of the Mustang has defined Ford performance cars in the US for the last 50 years, but in Europe, the Blue Oval has nearly as a long history of building some of the best hot hatches on the market with the Fiesta, Escort and later the Focus. The latest Fiesta ST has just hit the roads on both sides of the pond and has been enthusiastically received thanks to its combination of a peppy, turbocharged engine and hatchback utility.
However, Europe is getting a bumper crop of hot hatches at the moment, including the forthcoming, third-generation Mini Cooper S. Should Ford have waited to launch the ST until it knew how the competition performed? That's the answer that Xcar is after in its latest video, and it took the Fiesta to the track and some very misty, Welsh roads to find out. Scroll down to find out whether the ST stacks up.
Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA
Tue, 29 Oct 2013With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.
