I am a small private Collector and a perfectionist! I purchased this vehicle late Dec and Received it Mid January. The car was sold New in W. Virginia, garage kept and covered! The original owner passed away approximate 2.5 yrs ago and his Senior Son brought the Car to his home in Colorado. He told me his father was very fussy and had the oil changed every 2000-2500 miles. Which was very evident when I removed the valve covers to refinish them. There was NO Sludge or Varnish on the engine head or inside of the valve covers (Pictures are attached). I removed the radiator and sent it out to be flushed and pressure checked. I completely refinished the engine compartment, removed all hoses and incorrect clamps. I replaced every hose with period correct Hoses and clamps, I actually was able to find Autolite Radiator hoses with the double wire clamps I installed all New Autolite Ignition wires, spark plugs and Autolite engine Decals. I found a Autolite Battery Topper and had Red Autolite Vinyl letters made for the battery. I re sprayed under the hood and covered the engine blankets with fire retardant felt. The top of the Grill Shell had some fading, the top section of the 4 piece bumper and bumper ends was spotted with patina and some surface rust. I sent the Grill Shell and 4 piece bumper to a Top Quality Chrome shop and had it refinished (took 9 weeks). The Car sat from 2007 till I purchased it. Mechanically I had to have a complete new brake system Installed including Master cylinder. The fuel pump was leaking, the starter was noisy so both were replaced. The power Steering pump started to leak and the Steering box was squealing so both of them were replaced. The car runs very smooth and starts with a flick of the key!! The Original NEW Spare Tire is in the trunk, the Michelin Tires on the ground measure 10/32nds and are recent. The exhaust pipes have some surface rust and are very sound, the mufflers are recent. The resonators are older but appear sound!  The Interior of the car Shows NO Wear, there are No crakes or scratch's in the leather. To the best of my knowledge the paint is original with exception of the header panel around the head light doors and some paint work has been done to the left front fender  to repair a scratch. There are 2 pencil point door dings on the right side of the car, one being towards the bottom of the right door and one over the rear wheel opening! I bought the car as a 139,000 miles, there is nothing which indicates that it has this kind of mileage!!!, That's what Sate Motor Vehicles put on the title. I have full documentation original titles window sticker and buyers Purchase. order I am a Senior  and am having some health Issues and taking care of 4 cars is just to much for me now. Ask any questions and I will answer! All Sales are final!! I have described this vehicle in detail and have tried to cover all details. I am not responsible for any errors or omissions! The car is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end this listing at my discretion!

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.

Lincoln cancels plan to build electric vehicle on Rivian's platform

Tue, Apr 28 2020

Just three months ago, Lincoln announced a project to build a vehicle atop Rivian’s skateboard platform. Today, itÂ’s canceling those plans. Automotive News originally reported the news, and a Lincoln spokesperson confirmed it to us. Lincoln reportedly informed dealers of its decision to cancel the electric project earlier today, citing the “current environment.” Language like that these days in the automotive industry refers to the coronavirus pandemic and flailing vehicle sales. Originally, Lincoln announced that this model would launch in 2022. It was to be built using the same platform underpinning the Rivian R1S and R1T. The partnership with Rivian was so close that this Lincoln was going to be built at RivianÂ’s Normal, IL assembly plant. Production of the plant itself was halted recently in the face of the coronavirus, which is bad news for any products meant to be built there in the near future. Lincoln never announced that this vehicle was going to be an SUV, but that was the likely result of it using RivianÂ’s platform designed for rugged and large utility vehicles. However, Lincoln says it still has plans to build an electric vehicle. The companyÂ’s statement follows: “Given the current environment, Lincoln and Rivian have decided not to pursue the development of a fully electric vehicle based on RivianÂ’s skateboard platform. Our strategic commitment to Lincoln, Rivian and electrification remains unchanged and LincolnÂ’s future plans will include an all-electric vehicle consistent with its Quiet Flight DNA.” Lincoln hasnÂ’t specified any product details or timing for when this mystery electric vehicle will launch. It could be based off the Mustang Mach-E platform, or it could be a larger vehicle based off the future electric F-150 platform. The former could launch sooner, while the latter is likely a little ways out still. Lincoln doesnÂ’t want this news to be read as a loosening of ties between itself and Rivian either. “Our partnership with Rivian is strong,” LincolnÂ’s statement reads. “While the Lincoln electric vehicle did not turn out to be the right opportunity, we continue to work closely together with Rivian. Our strategic commitment remains unchanged and we will continue to work with Rivian on an alternative vehicle based on RivianÂ’s skateboard platform.” As of now, Lincoln hasnÂ’t revealed exactly what didnÂ’t line up to make the planned collaboration work.
