If you have less than 3 positive feedbacks, sorry, but I am requiring you to contact me before placing a bid with a name and phone number, at which point I will call you to verify your interest. If you do not contact me, then I will cancel your bid. This is due to the fact that this item was previously sold to a zero feedback member who never contacted me after the sale. For newer members, I am sorry about this--but if you are legit, there's no problem, just get in touch with me. Also, to ward off fraudulent bidders, I am requiring a paypal deposit for $295 within 48 hours of auction close. If it sells for above $295, the rest can be paid when you pick it up. Thanks for looking. Please read the entire description thoroughly before bidding:

1994 Ford Escort LX station wagon. With title. You'll need a tow truck to pick up in Nashville.

Needs a new TIMING BELT in order to run. Other than that, it is in good shape mechanically, and has lots of good parts. Cosmetically, it is terrible. I used it as a work vehicle for about three years, so it has lots of battle wounds, and I never made any effort to repair cosmetic issues. See photos. I did, however, maintain the mechanical aspects. Recent repairs include a new serpentine belt on August 2011. On the same date I had two new tires installed--Hancock 185/65 R14. The Hancocks are virtually new, as the car broke down in the Spring of 2012 and hasn't been driven since. The other two tires are mastercrafts, and they are in very good shape. In the summer of '09 I had extensive maintenance done including: PCV tube replacements, thermostat, water temp sender, spark plug wire set, new battery (currently needs charging), brake job, and new master cylinder. I have records for all those repairs.

The car has a busted odometer, so I have no idea how many miles it has. It is stuck at 78,000. I would estimate 150,000 or so.

Here are the issues that I can think of:

Needs new TIMING BELT to run.
Oil needs to be topped about twice a year. I would say two quarts a year. It was like that when I got it around '06, and it never got any worse or better. There were never any oil puddles under the car.
Radiator fluid needs to be topped occasionally.
The guy who had it before me got rear ended and put a replacement hatch that is red instead of gold. The rear bumper is still pretty mangled.
The front bumper is sagging on passenger side.
The interior rubber pulls of both front doors are coming off.
The passenger door cannot open from inside.
The passenger seat is terrible. I had placed some batteries on it, and some acid spilled. I neutralized all the acid with baking soda, but the seat is in terrible condition. The passenger seat belt is also shot.
The driver side window does not go up all the way. Leaves about a nickel's width.
The windshield is cracked.
I'm pretty sure the AC does not work. Also, radio does not work.
IMPORTANT to know that the temp gauge signals overheat, but it is NOT overheating. My mechanic looked at this issue extensively, replaced thermostats etc, and tested all the temperatures. It is an issue with the gauge, not the engine.
The ignition on the steering column stopped turning with my key, so my mechanic rigged it so that you can turn it with any key. It still looks like a normal ignition.
Hood has hail damage.
Passenger side exterior mirror has been taken off the car. I have the part and hardware and it can easily be re-installed.

Overall, it's an old car that has seen better days. When the timing belt went, I decided to move on. I have described all issues to the best of my knowledge, but I am selling this car AS IS. There could be some other minor issues with it that I cannot recall. So, again, being sold AS IS, NO RETURNS. Please ask all questions before bidding. If you want to check it out, contact me and we can arrange a visit.

Thanks for looking. Feel free to ask any questions. Check my seller feedback and bid with confidence.

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.

Ford of India in hot water for Figo celebrity bondage ads

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Apparently sensibilities in India, at least in the case of some Ford marketing partners, are downright lascivious at times. Case in point are a new series of print ads, presumably touting the vast cargo capacity of the Ford Figo hatchback, that involve more than a whiff of T&A, S&M and other sexy abbreviations.
In all seriousness, the advertising campaign is taking some major heat in the Indian press for being outrageously sexist. All three images - which seem to be produced by a graphic artist with some Heavy Metal work in his/her portfolio - show bound and gagged people stuffed into the Figo's boot. With a tagline reads, "Leave Your Worries Behind." one version features a peace-sign throwing Silvio Berlusconi holding hostage three buxom and barely clad women, all wearing ball gags with hands and feet bound. Charming. Another version shows Paris Hilton similarly kidnapping a trio of Kardashians, while a third (tame in terms of the clothing at least), has Michael Schumacher toting Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, and Lewis Hamilton.
Clearly in bad taste, at least, the Indian source also questions the timing of these risqué Ford ads, as the follow by days new anti-rape legislation passed by the Indian Parliament. Ford has responded in a statement, that it and its advertising partner (JWT India) "deeply regret" the ads, and claim that they "never should have happened."
