1969 Ford Country Sedan Stationwagon. 390 Big Block Ford FE 2bbl Motor and C6 Automatic Transmission. Runs strong and shifts smooth. The odometer shows 35,108.  This is the full size Ford based on the Galaxie or LTD platform. I have the full Marti Report on this car.  It has A/C, original factory AM-FM Stereo, Power Steering, Power Brakes with Disc in the front, and Power Rear Tailgate Window. The A/C needs to be recharged and the Power Rear Window is not working currently. The Tailgate is the dual opening style. It opens to the side like a door, or down like a truck tailgate. This particular car was not ordered with the 3rd Row Seat. The Country Sedan was the model just below the Country Squire. The only difference being that the Country Sedan did not have the 'Wood Panel' sides. Everything is original on this car except for a repaint of the original Blue years ago. The interior is blue and all original. The door panels are in great shape, however the dash pad is cracked, and the front seat has a few seem rips. 

The frame is perfect. The car has had a ton of mechanical work done already.

Brakes and Brakes lines
Master Cylinder
Fuel line
Starter and Selenoid
Carb rebuild
Plug Wires and Cap
New Pertronix Electronic Ignition Module, (eliminates the points in the distributor)
New Exhaust Manifolds
Top End of the Motor rebuilt including Reconditioning the Heads and Re-gasketing everything, (head gaskets, intake gaskets, exhaust manifold gaskets, carb gaskets, valve cover gaskets)

The gas tank has a few pin holes in it so I currently have it running off a 2 gallon gas can. I've already had the tank out, it can be removed in less than 10 minutes. I did find a place in PA who will completely refurbish the tank

As for the body, there is some rust. The rust is in the typical areas, rear quarters, spare tire well, rear storage area floor, (where the 3rd seat would normally mount), the front edge of the hood, and the tailgate skin.

All in all, the car is 100% complete. All of the trim is intact, the factory tinted glass is all perfect. With a gas tank repair this car can be rolling down the road.

Livestream: Ricardo Innovation & Sustainability Symposium 2015

Thu, Mar 19 2015

Making decisions on how to invest billions of dollars in future technology is scary even if you're developing something as simple as a smartphone. But when you've got to invest that money in something as complex as a car – one that might drive itself, or operate just on electricity, or even possibly be crash-proof – that task becomes daunting. Today, at 9:00AM, a slate of auto industry leaders are gathering at automotive supplier Ricardo to celebrate the company's 100-year anniversary by looking toward the future. Moderated by Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Sharon Carty, the panel will talk about Ford's vision for the future, look at battery development, environmental issues, and may even debate the future of flying cars. Maybe. If you're interested in following along, take a look at the livestream. Government/Legal Green Ford Technology Emerging Technologies Videos ricardo Sakti3

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
