This car belonged to my dad and after settling his estate my sister decided she didn't want the car that I had been holding for her. This car snorts! My dad bought this for revisiting his childhood and was recreating a car that he had down to the twilight mist (purple) color. The car has been altered from original as follows: emblems, hood ornament, trunk key hole and gas cap hole all removed and smoothed out. 455 engine crammed in with a 4 speed auto. Front axle is not original and has disc brakes. The good about this car is that it is fun, easy to work on, and starts fairly easily. It's a great toy. The bad it that it has sat for years and there is some surface rust in the engine compartment (mainly on the engine block and master cylinder) and isn't perfect by any means. The things that I have noticed are the seals on the door windows are not in place, when you put the pedal down I think a wheel may rub a little since I hear the same noise on small bumps when going slow and the rear wheel wells have been repaired from rust (see pics). We have not had any issues with the rust repair in the wheel wells and appear smooth from the outside of the car. Simply this will never be a show car but is a fun car. I don't consider it a money pit and thought about keeping it for cruise ins but I'm a farmer and I'm busy that time of year. The reserve is reasonable. We had this car appraised twice in 2006 (13-12k) and I realize that was a different time economically but this car is a luxury item and not a need so I am not looking to give it away but it needs a different home.

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?
Sat, 13 Apr 2013This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.

Ford Shelby GT350R, GT successor, F-150 Raptor and more rumored for Detroit debut
Mon, Dec 1 2014According to a pair of reports from Hearst's car mags, Car and Driver and Road & Track, Ford has a whole mess of good stuff on deck for the Detroit Auto Show in January. And it all sounds awesome. First, expect to see a hotter version of the Shelby GT350 in Detroit, likely called GT350R. Think of this as the already-hot Shelby with even more track-focused bits baked in – brakes, tires, aero, etc. Everything about the GT350 sounds great, so expect this R variant to be something seriously fierce. As R&T suggests, if the GT350 is the company's new Boss 302, the R is the Laguna Seca. But that's not even close to the biggest news. Road & Track believes a proper Ford GT replacement will debut in Detroit – a road-going version of the Le Mans GTE-class car the Blue Oval is working on for 2016. We've heard about this before, but having the street-legal car debut in Detroit would be absolutely huge news. The performance story continues, though, with R&T suggesting that the next-gen Ford F-150 Raptor will bow in Detroit. Details are scarce about what, exactly, the aluminum-bodied desert stormer will hold, but we expect good things. Finally, Ford's hot hatches might make some news in the Motor City, too. Car and Driver seems to think the all-wheel-drive Focus RS will bow in The D, and that an updated version of the Fiesta ST will also show its face. Road & Track, meanwhile, believes the Focus RS showing will be saved for a European auto show – think Geneva – and our gut feeling is to agree with the R&T theory. All of these rumors point to Ford officially announcing its dedicated performance division – like Mercedes-AMG, BMW M, and so on. We've heard reports of a new, global performance brand from the company already, with the name 999 thrown out as a possibility. In any case, if these rumblings prove to be true, there's going to be a ton to drool over from Ford in January. Stay tuned.
