Trim: Custom 300
This is an unmolested 1957 Ford Custom 300, it is currently not road worthy but it is not far from it. The title and the odometer show 21,923 miles, the car has never been repainted and has very little rust, the frame, trunk pan, deck lid, hood, and floor pans are all in very good shape, there are a few small patchable holes in the front pans, but they will not need replacing, car had a rubber mat from the factory as opposed to carpet. I purchased this car about a year ago from a man who decided to strip it for his ranchero, I felt it was too good of a car to strip and luckily got it before he got anything major off of it, parts he stripped were as follows, headlight switch, horn ring, driver side window trim, sunvisors, master cylinder, headlight trim rings. This is a very good starting point and an easy restoration for someone just wanting a 1950's cruiser. It has an open clear title. I have a replacement driver side fender in good shape. All glass is good, some small bubbles but nothing major in the glass. I have had the car running and I know it moved on its on power, but I have not had it on the road. I have just installed plug wires, points, condenser and a rotary button, rust spot on the low driver fender, passenger rocker has a couple of small rust places, passenger quarter looks like it swiped something, doesnt need replaced it is very fixable, one small place on the driver lower rear quarter, of course, around the headlight area is a little rust etc, if you want to know anything specific, feel free to ask, it is not currently running but a good weekends worth of work could put it on the road again, the tires are junk.
I am trying to get down to one classic, I also have a 1937 pontiac project car, a 1960 Borgward Isabella coupe, and a 1968 vw beetle for sale as well.
Full payment is due on this car within 5 days of auction end, buyer pays all shipping cost. The mirrors in the pictures are no longer on the car also, will post more pics of the car asap

Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow
Wed, Mar 16 2016Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
Last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible nets $500k for charity at Barrett-Jackson [w/video]
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible was sold on Saturday at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Reno, Nevada, for $500,000. Ford donated the Mustang to be auctioned for charity, and all of the money is going to the Brain Injury Association of America.
Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indianapolis 500, was there on behalf of the BIAA with his son Page, who suffered a brain injury in a sprint car crash in 1994. The bidding increased quickly, reaching $500k in no time, spreading a bit more hope to people who live with brain injuries.
The winning bidder will be able to choose the GT500's exterior, interior and stripe colors, and is scheduled to receive the car, signed by Parnelli Jones in appreciation for the donation, by the end of 2013. Watch the video below to see the auction-block action.
Ford recalls 2020-21 Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, 2021 E-Series
Mon, Dec 21 2020Ford announced safety recalls for the 2020-2021 Explorer and Lincoln Aviator along with the 2021 E-Series early Monday. The recalls address entirely different issues. In the case of the 2020-2021 Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, that issue is motor mount hardware. Specifically, the fasteners that secure the passenger-side motor mount may back out. In Ford's words, this can result in a "loss of power," which is the entirely predictable result of an engine parting ways with the vehicle it powers. As alarming as that may sound, owners should not have to worry about anything extreme, as the passenger side mount is only one of multiple, and Ford says it is not aware of any incidents that have occurred with vehicles in customer hands. Ford says it impacts only about 1400 examples of the Explorer and Aviator in the States (plus two in Mexico and 65 in Canada) that were built at Chicago Assembly Plant between July 28 and 30, 2020. Ford is in the process of alerting its owners to the recall, and those with affected models will have their mount hardware replaced by their local Ford dealerships free of charge. The 2021 E-Series is being recalled for a potential heat management issue resulting from improperly aligned thermal insulation on the underside of its engine cover. In vehicles where this insulation was not properly installed so that it reaches all the way to the edges of the cover, the resulting heat bleed can cause high in-cabin surface temperatures, and direct contact them could result in burns. This is the larger of the two recalls, as Ford says it covers nearly 33,000 examples sold in the United States and Canada. Fortunately, as with the above issue, Ford says it has not been made aware of any customer incidents. Ford says the remedy is a set of insulation patches for the exposed areas. Related Video:
