I just bought this wagon last week because I was going to make it into a surf wagon to take to cruises and shows while I'm building my wifes 1957 Buick Hardtop Riviera coupe. Come to find out, I am not really al lthat interested in the "Surf" theme after all and I think I would be happier with a coupe, so I am selling the wagon, no other reason, that's it.

I have a free and clear Florida title in my name, the car is registered to Florida, I have driven it this last weekend, it drove fine for what it is, a 6cyl, manual steering and drum brake wagon. The motor is a little cold natured, it does run fine once it warms up, the transmission works quite well, it is a 2spd I think, to be honest I never drove it over 45 MPH, so I'm not sure. The steering is a little sloppy, but the are not shakes, rattles or weird things happening in the steering as you drive, it tracks straight, does not shimmy when you hit bumps in the road, it brakes straight and does not pull to the side when you brake. No over haeting that I can tell, no snoke, no weird smells, I just went ahead and had the oild changed and the oil was clean, no worries on the motor or trans, and as stated, the brakews work well for drum manual brakes. I think the steering box needsto be adjusted to remove some of the play in the steering wheel.

All of the gauges appear to work, the A/C blows cool, not ice cold, but I thin kit just needs to be re-charged. All the belts and hoses look good, the radiator and condenser appear to be in good shape. The fuel pump appears to work fine, but I think it could use some tightening of the fuel line, there is a small amount of leakage, nothing freaky, just needs some tightening which I will lokk into this weekend.

The tires appaer to be newer, they are 13", they hold air and ride fine. The body is really pretty good for the age of the car. look at my pictures, I try to show what the bad spots are, the top of the rear quarters fenders have the paint flaking off, and there are two bad spots in the drivers side door and rear door. The pans are very good shape, the doors open and close very well, the interior is in good condition, a couple of small tears , but nothing horrible. All of the glass is good, rolls up and down, the rear tailgate glass does need help getting it up and down, but it does work, I think it needs some lubrecation. the carpet / mats are not great, they could be replaced, the fold down rear set works great, the rear spare and all of the jack and stuff is there, it does rattle a little when you are driving, I will tighten up the mounts,

Overall the car is nice and well worth my reserve. I reserve the right to end the auction early because I do have the car listed locally. I will work with a buyer on shipping. I would be willing to deliver it myself within a 150 mile radius for the buy it now price.

I would be open to trades for a good driver quality 1960 -1963 Falcon coupe, no 4 doors. And maybe a 1960 - 1965 Chevy II coupe. No motorcycles, boats, land or your Mom's Jewlery.

I will be glad to try and answer your questions and Good Luck on the bids.

Camouflaged Shelby GT350 seen on the street

Fri, Mar 27 2015

The Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang made a grand debut at the 2014 LA Auto Show, and its more extreme GT350R sibling bowed at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. With the order guides already leaked and the R lapping the Nurburgring in a claimed 7:32.19, many of the big questions about the high-performance pony cars have already been answered. However, when they aren't showing up at events, Ford apparently still sees reason to keep the models fully camouflaged on the street. Case in point: this recent video showing off one in testing. With the design already fully unveiled, there's not much left to spy under all of the concealment. This short clip does provide a real-world opportunity to hear the song of the 5.2-liter V8 with its flat-plane crank, though. As a development car nothing here is final, but based on this video, Ford is definitely making sure the Shelby's engine sounds great. Related Video:

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.
