I have owned this car since 2/2011. It has been in my garage when not in use. It is a "25 footer". It looks great from 25 ft. away. It is not a show car. It is a solid runner , on the road and NYS inspected. The 390 motor is powerful and solid, no lifter noise or anything like that. The transmission shifts fine. The interior is newer and in great shape. The top is also newer but the plastic window zipper is not compatible with the top. The installation was done prior to my ownership. The power top mechanics work well. In 3 years of ownership I have had the following items replaced; power brake booster, wiper motor, battery,starter, turn signal lever, flasher,rear brake shoes & drums, axle & bearing seals, u joint.
The tires still have new tire nubbins on them. The floor pans will need to be replaced. I took the car to 2 body shops and they stated that the frame will need work in 3-5 years. There are a few quarter size holes the the frame but it is still solid. All gauges work except the clock & notice there is no radio or antenna. I have no way of knowing what the real mileage of the car is. The car is parked with a battery tender device and always starts right up. When the tender is not in use the battery would be dead after a few weeks so there is leakage somewhere in this almost 50 yr. old car. There is no jack or spare but I think i have a rim and tire they will be included with the sale. Also included is a full size cloth car cover. Please do not waste our time with low-ball offers. I travel a great deal with my work & yet will help any serious prospective buyers questions etc The buyer is fully responsible for pick up. If you want to use 1 of those inspection services I will try to accommodate. Good luck bidding!! |

Ford, Volvo join Redwood in EV battery recycling push in California
Mon, Feb 21 2022Ford and Volvo will join battery recycling startup Redwood Materials in developing processes, starting in California, to collect end-of-life batteries from electric and hybrid vehicles and recover the materials for use in new batteries, the companies said Thursday. Redwood Materials, co-founded by former Tesla executive JB Straubel, formed an earlier partnership last fall with Ford to develop a “closed loop” or circular supply chain for electric vehicle (EV) batteries, from raw materials to recycling. On Thursday, Redwood Materials said it would work directly with dealers and dismantlers in California to identify and recover end-of-life battery packs. The materials in those packs will be recovered and recycled at Redwood Materials facilities in northern Nevada. U.S. automakers Ford and General Motors Co (GM) have said the battery recycling effort is crucial in efforts to develop a domestic supply chain to meet increasing EV demand. GM and battery partner LG Energy Solution last year announced a partnership with startup Li-Cycle to recycle battery scrap material from Ultium Cells, the GM-LG joint venture that is building battery plants in Ohio, Tennessee and Michigan. Redwood Materials has similar partnerships with battery makers Panasonic in Nevada and Envision AESC in Tennessee, as well as with Amazon. Ford and Amazon are among the investors in Redwood Materials. Reporting by Paul Lienert in Detroit; Editing by Mark Potter Green Ford Volvo Green Automakers Electric
Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.
