I have decided to sell my car as I am purchasing a real eliminator and cannot store two cars. It is a great driver quality car that I have done alot of work to and stands out everywhere you go and gets lots of attention. Originally a 351 auto M code car. The engine is a 302 crate motor and is around 5 years old, and the paint job is about 10 years old. I am unsure of the exact mileage but I would say less than 10,000. The paint is not perfect but certainly looks nice and has no major flaws. The chrome/body trim is nice, but has some pitting but for a driver it is fine. Car is very solid with little rust, one blister on passenger door and one on trunk lid nothing major. The car is very reliable and can be driven anywhere. It has slotted front rotors and power disc brakes up front (new.) Has brand new ceramic coated headers and mild flowmaster exhaust. The car had a c4 automatic transmission when I purchased the car, but just this summer swapped a 4 speed close ratio manual transmission into the car. If desired I will include the c4 automatic transmission and parts with the sale. During the 4 speed swap I installed a Mcleod shatterproof bellhousing, Mcleod flywheel, brand new Mcleod Pro ceramic/organic clutch (up to 500hp) brand new mini starter, new throwout bearing and pilot bearing. Has a Edelbrock performer intake and 600CFM carb. Engine is stout for a 302 runs and starts perfectly, it isnt a 11 second car but it does pretty good for a 302 especially with the 4 speed. We installed a hurst shifter with brand new linkage during the transmission install. I purchased the 4 speed transmission from a gentleman who rebuilt it 2 years ago and used it in his drag car. Internally the transmission looks great but the third gear synchro is a little worn causing a slight grind going into third gear, but it does not effect the function. Painted the rear leaf springs, rear end housing, ladder bars, driveshaft, transmission, and bellhousing so the underside of the car really looks great in gloss black. The car has a actual eliminator hood scoop and rear spoiler. The interior looks great on this car as I have put some work into it. Just this year I put new vinyl on the steering wheel and wrapped it with a very nice leather wrap, new burl wood console insert, new visor chrome/hardware, new sill plates, new seat latch levers, chrome visor hardware. I hate to sell the car because it is a very nice car, but someone else will truly get the chance to drive it and enjoy it as much as I have. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
