 This is a very nice one of a kind car....if you are tired of Camaros and Mustangs at car shows then dare to be different ! This car has been restored cosmetically correct but has later model running gear and suspension to be safer.  It has a built 460 Ford with a loppy cam and high rise and a brand new Holley double pumper carb. New Griffin radiator with dual electic fans. High volume water pump,external fuel filter and oil filter coolers. Has a beefed up auto C6 trans with stall converter and a full spool poi trac rear end with 4.11 gears. ( Runs good down highway due to tall tires....65 mph all day long) Has full dual 3" exhaust with stock mufflers and manifolds ....its quiet going down the road. If you want it loud it has electric cut outs...flip a switch and you have the drag strip !! Also rebuilt the frontend and installed disc brakes and all new bearings and axles and converted to dual master cylinder for safety. Car was stripped inside and painted,undercoated the floorboard and then layed insulation all through out. All new CORRECT interior,trim and chrome. Radio works but no antennae installed on car. New heater core and rebuilt box. Car was painted Springtime Yellow and new door and trunk rubbers installed. New felts and roof rail rubbers and verticals. Channel rubber we got was wrong and never got around to it but everything else is new !! Fiberglass 406/427 style hood. Dash pieces and both bumpers were rechromed and are like new. All lights work as should...has aftermarket gauges,tach,and shifter. I have nearly all the pics from the build. Has new gas tank too this year. Clear Texas title and tagged and driven weekly. I built this car 3 years ago. It has been driven by a 70 year old man this 3 years.....not poked along but DRIVEN...sometimes WIDE open !!!lol. Car has been fun but bought a 64 Thunderbolt and dont need two. Car still looks good,drives even better (floats down the road at 100mph if want) Would need little to be a show car and does good at local shows. Paint is really nice..interior like new. The only bad would be the following....at the bottom edge of door and a small place by rear wheel well there are small rust bubbles starting ( a dime probely cover either one.) Trunk above gas tank has rust but cant really see it so didnt mess with it. Motor has some blowby when driven down highway but still runs good so never worried about it.Rear main seal leaks and need to keep cardboard or drip pan under car( kinda like a Model A) Car has been driven....not a garage queen so has small chips and pecks but believe me....its still very nice. I spent about $20,000 buying and building this car. I have had fun but time to pass it on. If someone makes a reasonable offer I will let it go . Car is "AS IS"....I bought on here that way and selling the same. Buyers with "0" buys or feed back will be cancelled. $500 deposit due when sale ends. Cash or wire transfer due within 3 days....you can pick up the car whenever after paid for and after payment is made it can stay as long as you need here. I can deliver in Texas or close by if paid for first. I also have shippers (if available). Call if any questions BEFORE you buy !!!! Thanks and good luck !!! 682-459-3078....car is 30 mile south of Fort Worth ,Texas off I-35W...

RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.

2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost

Wed, 19 Nov 2014



A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.
