- I am the 3rd owner and have all records from the 2nd owner who bought it from the 1st original owner-dealer back in 1999 when the car had 15,000 miles on it.
- I bought it in 2006 when it had 79,000 miles and I always changed the oil every 3,000 miles on the dot...never missed an oil change...also changed transmission fluid often, fuel filter often, rear differential fluid and would add fuel injector cleaner with a gas fillup at least once a month or every 3rd or 4th fillup. Non smoking adult, never abused, always clean, cared for and bathed in armor all. Good leather seats, interior, carpet and steering wheel! - Original Paint, nothing to hide, no accidents. Original factory stereo-radio-cassette and CD player, will include cassette to 1/8 inch audio mini jack adaptor so you can plug in your phone, iPod, laptop, tablet etc... Trunk is clean with spare, jack and wheel locks. - I had Intrax lowering springs installed and KYB Gas Shocks which brought it down 1 1/2 to 2 inches, so the ride is much, much better, super tight handling and it looks cool, also front camber kit for proper front end alignment. - Some recent maintainence done within the past year and a half include, A/C charge-new hose, Radiator flush, new upper and lower radiator hoses, radiator cap, thermostat, S-belt, battery, coil, rack and pinion, heavy duty steering shaft, fuel pump, motor mounts, transmission mount, and I just installed new trunk lift hydraulic support things, so the trunk stays up. - New Intake manifold was installed a while ago...all the late 90's mustang intakes corroded and leaked coolant at one point around 80-90k miles...I already had it replaced with the redesigned model, so you don't have to worry about that happening again. - It has been in a garage most of the time for the past 8 years where I worked...all day. The garage was difficult to get in and out of, so I have touched up the corners of the bumpers where I scraped them up a bit. I have been working from home since september 2012, so I rarely drive it anymore, maybe put 2,500 miles on it since then. The odometer had stopped working recently, but I just had it fixed, so there are maybe 1,000 more miles on it that what is displayed. - Tires are great Michelin Pilot Sport XGT 245/45/ZR17 - Known Issues...mostly cosmetic...no surprises - As I mentioned before, I have nothing to hide, so there will be no surprises, I will list everything I know about this car here... -The top does NOT leak but there were some rips in it which I have patched up with a kit I bought online as best I could, please see picts...you can see close up but not noticeable from a distance...at least this way they won't spread. -There are some "soft" dents on the right rear passenger side quarter panels because the previous owner's kids used to kick a soccer ball into it where they played in the front yard, again, please look at the pictures...you can see close up but not noticeable from a distance, didn't bother me, so I never tried to fix, maybe you can pull them out with a suction cup. -When the fuel pump was replaced, the seal on filler tube should have been replaced or maybe they didn't put it back in too well, so if you top it off at the pump a little gas will leak, I never noticed it before because I filled up and got on the freeway right away, so, by the time I got home, I never saw any gas leaking, so if you put in 10 gallons and do not top off, instead of the 13 gallons to fillup and top off, you will be good - Left front drivers side corner lense was cracked, by a co-worker of mine, I repaired with clear silicone adhesive sealer, hardly noticeable now from a distance, but they are cheap and easy to replace. - Does NOT smoke, drip or burn oil, if you can see the picts of my driveway, there are no oil spots on there but I do have to add a quart when it gets close to the 3,000 mile mark...which is when I change the oil anyways - The bright orange shifter indicator sticker thing came off a long time ago, so when you go from Park to reverse to neutral to drive, you have to keep count, you might be able to "fish" it out of the console and stick it back on, I can see it laying on the bottom inside the shifter-console there but it didn't bother me, so I never tried to fix it. - Bottom line - its getting harder and harder to find these with original paint and in decent condition, this is in way better shape than 90% of the ones I see out on the road today. It has lived its entire life here in southern CA and it has been a dependable daily driver for me since 2006, other than the top, it is in excellent overall condition. I recently saw another one just like mine sell in Texas for $5,000.00 so I think its a good deal, although that one had a new top, it didn't have the lowering springs like mine...and my engine compartment is cleaner. - I am an individual so you do not pay sales tax and I cannot offer or arrange for shipping, warranty etc... I am in Encino CA near the 101 and 405 freeways, you can come see the car during the day before the auction ends if you like. It will come with 2 PATS chipped Keys and one keyless entry, remote trunk opening fob. - if you do buy it and are coming from out of state, I am willing to pick you up from Burbank airport (which is closer to me) or LAX airport so you can drive it back home...just please give me a ride back to my home first, before you go on your way. |

Will Ford's SUV blitz include the Bronco?
Sat, Feb 13 2016Ford announced this week it will add four sport-utility vehicles in the next four years, an ambitious bet on a segment the industry once shunned. This led to wild speculation about what form these utes will take. Here's what we know: They will be new nameplates, and Ford is thinking globally. That means at least one might not be a product with US intent. They will also be in segments where the company does not currently compete, Ford said. The Blue Oval isn't specifying exactly what's it's doing, so here are some of our theories. We think one will be called the Bronco, which is great news for enthusiasts. We hope it follows the Mustang playbook with some heritage styling, but a thoroughly modern execution. Ford needs an off-road Jeep Wrangler-fighter. Fuel prices are low and it's been 22 years since the infamous O.J. Simpson white Bronco chase. This is the best chance Ford will ever have to bring back this iconic name. Our man on the ground at the Chicago Auto show, Sebastian Blanco, reported that Ford sales and marketing vice president Mark LaNeve said a "mini utility" will also be one of the utes. This could be primarily an overseas play. We've also seen lots of spy shots of the EcoSport, a small crossover that Ford sells in India and other overseas markets, being tested on American roads. That is an existing nameplate. Maybe Ford adds a small ute related to the EcoSport in the United States, but calls it something else. We think Lincoln gets a three-row SUV out of the deal. It could slot between the MKX, which was new last year, and the Navigator. Lincoln is leaving money on the table by not being in this segment. The platform could be used for a Ford at some point, too. The Blue Oval brand does actually have a tweener three-row vehicle, the Flex, but this chassis might underpin a replacement. Or maybe Ford makes one of these a hybrid. The company laid out ambitious plans in December to ramp up its electrification strategy, something that could mean a dedicated hybrid SUV (Kia unveiled one of those right after LaNeve's speech in Chicago). It's also possible hybrid technology will be integrated into this new portfolio. The Escape used to have a hybrid sibling. Whatever form they ultimately take, Ford is betting heavily on SUVs. The company thinks they are what Baby Boomers and Millenials want and expects the segment will continue to grow. It's important to note: this will be a diversified strategy.
Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium
Thu, 21 Mar 2013According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...
