1988 Ford Country Squire LX Woody Wagon 5.0 V8 Fuel Injected engine, 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission.  This wagon is from the estate of the 2nd owner who recently passed.  The wagon was stored in a garage until a few years ago.  Maintenance records included!  Low mileage, just 78,608! It was last 2009.  In 2004 the wagon had 67,000 miles so it was driven very little the last 10 years.  The gas tank was emptied and replaced with new gas and the car runs great now.  There is a minor exhaust leak but it makes it sound really cool.  The valve cover gaskets leak a little after driving a while.  This is from the car sitting for so long.  It’s an easy repair.  The wagon can really benefit from a complete tune-up and fluid changes but it isn’t necessary right now, it drives great and always starts right up.  This classic wagon weighs less than 4000 pounds and gets great gas mileage and has plenty of power, tires will spin if you step on it.   Remember this has the Mustang engine so it’s easy to work on and parts are plentiful.  Looks very retro like wagons from the 60s Country Squires but has all the modern technology for a dependable cruiser.  Paint is all original and fading in some places.  There is minor surface rust on the driver’s door that can be easily repaired and color matched for very little money.  The woodgrain stickers on the side are worn and faded in spots.  The owner had some decals and reflectors that were removed from the painted surfaces but there is some residue left behind that is noticeable if you look close.  Most of the interior is nice, dash looks great, no tears in the seats, door panels or headliner.  Carpet is original and very nice and clean.  The wagon is eligible for classic car insurance and QQ classic license plates in NJ which means no inspection and can cost less than $200 per year to insure with zero deductible.    Clear Connecticut title ready to go.

Cosworth double-feature is XCar's a drool-worthy look back

Wed, Jun 11 2014

While American fans of Ford performance cars in the '80s and early '90s were loving the 5.0 Mustang, Taurus SHO and, for those who wanted to be a little different, the Merkur XR4Ti, British fans of the Blue Oval were getting their own unique take on speed. The Sierra RS Cosworth (which was similar but not identical to the aforementioned Merkur) and later Escort RS Cosworth were the stuff of dreams with huge wings, hood vents and big power for their time and class. XCar Films aims to find out whether it is little more than nostalgia that makes these classics famous or it really is their legitimate performance. Thanks to its Formula One and racing success, Cosworth was already a well-established performance name in the UK by the time it began selling tuned engines to Ford for the Sierra and Escort. The Sierra RS Cosworth hit the scene in 1986 with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. Its huge wing at the back signaled it immediately as something special, and it proved to be a performance powerhouse on and off the track. When it was retired, Ford replaced it with the Escort RS Cosworth that used an upgraded version of the same engine with 217 hp, all-wheel drive and an even bigger rear wing to net yet more racing victories. XCar really gets into the spirit of the time, opening the video with the lo-fi grain of '80s and '90s TV, but to find out whether the Cossies stand up to modern scrutiny, you have to watch the video below. Stay tuned until the end to enjoy them at their best with some vintage motorsports footage. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
