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!

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.

2020 Lincoln Aviator fuel economy revealed

Tue, Jun 18 2019

Ford finally revealed some of the last details, such as fuel economy, for the non-hybrid 2020 Explorer. So it's no surprise that its classier corporate twin, the 2020 Lincoln Aviator, has had its own fuel economy data released by the EPA. Though, like the Explorer, we only have information for the non-hybrid versions. The 2020 Lincoln Aviator has just two engine options, a base turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 with 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, and the same engine coupled to a hybrid system with 450 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. That base engine is the one we have fuel economy numbers for, and it's shared with the Ford Explorer ST, though the ST's version makes an extra 15 pound-feet of torque. With all-wheel drive it gets nearly the same fuel economy as the fast Ford with 17 mpg in the city, 24 on the highway and 20 in combined driving. The Explorer ST gets one more mpg in town. Unlike the Explorer ST, the Aviator does offer rear-wheel drive with this turbocharged V6. This model gets improved fuel economy of 18 in the city, 26 on the highway and 21 in combined driving. This isn't too surprising, since all-wheel-drive vehicles often do a little worse when it comes to fuel economy. We'll be especially curious as to how the Aviator hybrid performs. We doubt it will match the Ford Explorer hybrid, since that crossover relies on a less-powerful naturally aspirated 3.3-liter V6. But it might give the all-wheel-drive four-cylinder Explorer a run for its money, since the rear-drive V6 Aviator is only 1 to 2 mpg behind it. Related Video:

More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags

Thu, Jan 12 2017

The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
