I have owned this car for over 12 years. I have enjoyed driving it around town and even with some rust and a few dents, I get a few smiles and thumbs up.
History: I purchased this car from a friend who owned it new (per her story, never confirmed). It was an anniversary gift from her husband at that time. They lived at the Air Force Base located just outside of Lompoc, CA. She told me that car was purchased at the local Ford dealer in Lompoc. I have the original owners manual but the persons name inside has been blacked out. She drove the car to work every day until about 1991 when it was put in the garage for about 9-10 years. I worked with the owner at that time and we made arrangements to view the car. It had not been driven or started all that time. We agreed on a price and with a change of gas, oil and battery, she started after a few spins. The car was re painted by her son in High School but he didn't do the best in body work and some rust has come through after sitting on the coast at the Air Force Base.
I had the front end and rear end rebuilt. It has a new radiator. Tires are good. Exhaust system is newer. Brake system was worked on right after I bought it. The interior is not original but it looks great outside of needing new door panels.
The car comes with: 2 front fenders, 2 rear panels and a reclining front passenger seat from a parts car. Rebuilt AM/Radio/8 Track player, additional skirts, hubcaps and lots of extra parts. She starts and runs great. I don't see any blue coming out when you are driving and/or starting it but she has a few leaks here and there.
I hate to see this car go. It has been good to me and always makes me smile when I am driving around down but do to the loss of a job a while back, going without a job for a while, now having a job but need to move out of state, I think its time for her to move on to someone that can and wants to do more with her.

Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
Ford readying three-row Edge for China
Fri, Nov 21 2014The next-generation Ford Edge will be available with quite a growth spurt for its debut in China next year, with newly announced plans also to build and sell a three-row version exclusively in the People's Republic. However, markets outside of there likely won't see the larger model. Ford marketing boss (and future head of Ford of Europe) Jim Farley announced the three-row version of the crossover at the Los Angeles Auto Show, according to Automotive News. To create the extra room, Ford made the Chinese-built variant about 16 inches longer than its two-row counterpart. Farley didn't specify at which of the Blue Oval's plants in the country this model would be assembled. The Explorer and forthcoming Everest already offer three rows from the Ford lineup in China, but the company thinks the market can easily support all of them. According to Farley to Automotive News, the utility segment is up 485 percent in the country since 2008. Customers in the US can still look forward to the two-row Edge hitting dealers early next year. It'll be the first model in the Blue Oval's lineup here to come standard with EcoBoost power.
Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?
Tue, 26 Aug 2014
Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.
