We have owned this beauty for five years. It has been a daily driver for my wife. We have put about 60k miles on it since purchasing. Runs good, sounds good. Excellent starting point for a complete restoration. She is ready for a different toy.

I personally sanded the entire car down three years ago for paint. Body is solid. No rust on the body. Some minor rust under front floorboards. Less than 1 cup of body filler on the entire car. Truly an excellent Georgia car. Recently replaced all four tires, rear brakes, rear wheel bearing on passenger side, carpet is new, battery is less than a year old, power steering pump was replaced about two years ago. The interior was redone before we bought it. The dashboard and door panels are very nice. The dash board has not been cut. The stereo is mounted under the air conditioner. Still has the original radio.

The engine runs strong. About due for a tune up, starting to get a little hesitation. We have been back and forth to Georgia several times. It rides beautifully on the open highway.

Here's the ugly.

The antenna is broken.

The seats and interior are in good shape. The front seat has one split seam.

The pulley on the power steering is warped, it wobbles. Apparently it finally wore out the seal. It leaks fluid.

The AC compressor will need to be replaced. AC not working now.

The steering is sloppy. The tie rods and bushings seem solid, the steering box seems to be the issue.

The flywheel was replaced with a cheap one last year. Not well balanced. It shakes some from that.

The horn contact plate is worn out. Horn doesn't work.

All in all, this is a great car. We honestly don't care if we sell it or not. Just thinking it's time for a new toy. Might flex on the price. Cash talks.

Also willing to consider a partial trade on an older VW convertible or another convertible. Not looking for an even trade. There will be cash involved. Getting ready for a project car.

I will get more pictures up ASAP.

Ford will keep Escape and MKC plant open an extra week to meet demand

Thu, Jun 8 2017

Crossovers keep selling like popular pastries, and for Ford, that means it needs to keep production going. The company announced that, rather than the usual two-week shutdown, its Louisville, Ky., assembly plant will be open for one of those weeks. The plant builds the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC, which Ford reports have had record sales. According to Ford, Escape sales through May are up 3 percent, and MKC sales are up 10 percent compared with last year. In total, the Escape has sold about 130,000 units through May, and the MKC has sold around 11,000. Keeping the Louisville plant open will allow the company to build an additional 8,500 vehicles. Ford stated that all other assembly plants will continue with the two-week shutdown as scheduled.

2015 Ford Focus ST zooming toward Goodwood reveal [w/video]

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Ford has quite a party ready for the Goodwood Festival of Speed starting on June 27. Not only is the 2015 Mustang going to be driving in front of the European public for the first time, the Blue Oval is also unveiling its 2015 refresh for the Focus ST.
Official details about the latest Focus hot hatch are practically nonexistent at this point. Ford's teaser image shows narrower headlights, and the company says that the ST also benefits from the technical and quality improvements from the refreshed standard model, which likely means an even more Aston-Martin-like grille. However, any improvements for the power or handling are a mystery for now.
Ford will even give visitors to the festival the chance to drive the new ST - at least virtually. Gran Turismo 6 kiosks will be on hand with the hot hatch loaded up to race the Goodwood Hill Climb. There will also be real-time races between former Stig Ben Collins in the real ST challenging a player up the hill in the game.

Monsoon rains disrupt production for Ford, BMW in India

Wed, Dec 2 2015

Even modern production techniques can be stymied by Mother Nature. This was demonstrated most recently in India, as torrential, monsoon rains caused a deluge that forced multiple automakers to suspend production. Ford, Renault, and BMW all halted work at their Indian facilities around the southern city of Chennai, also known as Madras. The annual rains disrupted public transport around the city, preventing employees from making the trek into city's factories. According to Automotive News, Chennai saw 48 inches of precipitation last month alone, which is more than Seattle, WA saw in all of 2014. While Ford and BMW closed things down for all of December 1, Renault just cancelled a pair of shifts at its Chennai factory. This is the second time in the past month that automakers in southeast India have been forced to stop production due to severe flooding, and things aren't likely to improve. According to The Weather Channel, forecasts call for thunderstorms over five of the next seven days, while the chance of rain won't fall below 80 percent until December 8. Ford, Renault, and BMW are far from the only automakers that could stand to be impacted by the rains. The city has been nicknamed "The Detroit of India" for its extreme automotive presence. Daimler, Hindustan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Nissan all own factories in the region.
