See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"About 5 years ago I put new brakes on it and a new exhaust and a new fuel tank and fuel pump. However now after starting it the other day and driving it around the neighborhood I notice that the fuel gauge does not work...that came with the pump and so I am guessing that Father time did something. The other things that do not function correctly are the A/C, that works but the R12 leaks out, the fuel gauge as I mentioned, the dash pad is cracked badly around the speaker hole, the glove box door opening button or knob is broken and would need replacement and set of tires probably. Now the tires hold air and they only have about twenty thousand miles on them but they are old and so there is the reason why I listed the tires. The engine runs good, leaks a little oil while sitting, but does not smoke, the transmission shifts good and there are no noises from the rear end. There are no warrantys implied. Sold as is."

This 1986 Crown Victoria was a Florida car all of its life so there is no rust underneath and only on the drivers door in fact due to a scrape while my dad was driving it. I have the full service history on the car(receipts) from Goodyear of Brooksville Florida. There are no dents, just not a good paint job on the door. This was my dad's car until he passed away in '96. About 5 years ago I put new brakes on it and a new exhaust and a new fuel tank and fuel pump. However now after starting it the other day and driving it around the neighborhood I notice that the fuel gauge does not work...that came with the pump and so I am guessing that Father Time did something. The other things that do not function correctly are the A/C, that works but the R12 leaks out, the fuel gauge as I mentioned, the dash pad is cracked badly around the speaker hole, the glove box door opening button or knob is broken and would need replacement and set of tires probably. Now the tires hold air and they only have about twenty thousand miles on them but they are old and so there is the reason why I listed the tires. The engine runs good, leaks a little oil while sitting, but does not smoke, the transmission shifts good and there are no noises from the rear end. So here is the scoop, I am selling the car and telling you that you could use this car as a drive to work car, driver, or for parts. For an almost thirty year old car this ain't bad! There is no warranty implied and it is a buy as is sale. You must pick it up locally. The car is in Grayslake Illinois.

You must have a Pay Pal account and pay a non refundable deposit of $500.00 within 48 hours of the auctions end. The balance to be paid in full within 3 days of the auctions end. Local pick up only. No warranty on this vehicle as it has over 68,000 miles on it.

Weekly Recap: Hackers demonstrate auto industry's vulnerability

Sat, Jul 25 2015

There's always been a certain risk associated with driving, and this week cyber security came into focus as the latest danger zone when researchers demonstrated how easily they could hack into a 2014 Jeep Cherokee from across the country. The incident raised concerns over the vulnerability of today's cars, many of which double as smartphones and hot spots. During the now-infamous experiment, Chris Valasek and Charlie Miller infiltrated the Jeep's cellular connection and were able to control the infotainment system, brakes, and other functions. The hackers told the Jeep's maker, FCA US, of their findings last year, the company devised a software fix. Though Valesek and Miller hacked a Cherokee (like the one shown above), several FCA products, including recent versions of the Ram, Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango, and Viper were also affected, illustrating potentially wide exposure that could reverberate across the sector. "For the auto industry, this is a very important event and shows that cyber-security protection is needed even sooner than previously planned," Egil Juliussen, senior analyst and research director for IHS Automotive, wrote in a research note. "Five years ago, the auto industry did not consider cyber security as a near-term problem. This view has changed." Hours after the Cherokee hacking incident was publicized on Tuesday, Sens. Ed Markey (D-Mass) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn) introduced legislation to direct the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Federal Trade Commission to establish national standards for automotive cyber security. The bill also would require vehicles to have a cyber-rating system to alert consumers how well their cars' privacy and security are defended. "Drivers shouldn't have to choose between being connected and being protected," Markey said in a statement. "We need clear rules of the road that protect cars from hackers and American families from data trackers." Though FCA and its Jeep Cherokee were in the spotlight this time, they were just the latest to showcase how automotive technology has advanced faster than safety and regulatory measures. IHS forecasts 82.5 million cars will be connected to the internet by 2022, which is more than three times today's level. "Cyber-security will become a major challenge for the auto industry and solutions are long overdue," Juliussen said.

Ford reveals automated Fusion Hybrid

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Autonomous cars may still be in their infancy, but more and more big names in the auto industry are diving in head first. Nissan is already making strides with a semi-autonomous Leaf EV and General Motors is planning to offer semi-autonomous tech by 2020. And then there's Google, doing its thing with a fleet of Toyota Prius. Now, Ford is showing off its latest automated effort, a driverless Fusion Hybrid.
Partnering with the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and State Farm Insurance, the project is part of Ford's Blueprint for Mobility, the company's plan for transportation beyond 2025. "The Ford Fusion Hybrid automated vehicle represents a vital step toward our vision for the future of mobility," Chairman Bill Ford said. "We see a future of connected cars that communicate with each other and the world around them to make driving safer, ease traffic congestion and sustain the environment."
The automated Fusion features four LiDAR infrared sensors that scan the road 2.5 million times every second, using a principle similar to the echolocation used by dolphins or bats. Using the infrared light emitted by the LiDAR, the car can draw a picture of everything within 200 feet to create a map of its surroundings. According to Ford, the sensors are able to tell the difference between a paper bag and a small animal from a football field away.

Next Lincoln Navigator to drop V8 in favor of V6, but Ford Expedition might get both

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

A great many buyers fled from full-size body-on-frame SUVs to car-based crossovers in large measure to save fuel. But that doesn't mean there's still not a buying audience for more traditional truck-based utility vehicles, and those consumers doubtlessly wouldn't mind saving some dollars at the pump, too. According to Motor Trend, those shoppers might be in luck.
That's because the magazine has confirmed that Ford isn't walking away from the full-size SUV segment, and it's poised to do something about its offerings' economy ratings, too. According to MT, global Lincoln director Matt VanDyke has hinted that the next Navigator may drop two cylinders and go with a V6 model - the current model gets just 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway from its 5.4-liter V8. The obvious fitment would be Ford's 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6, an engine that has spread like kudzu throughout the rest of the Blue Oval's large vehicle lineup.
Downsized turbocharged engines like Ford's EcoBoost franchise have come under fire as of late for not delivering their EPA fuel economy ratings, but their benefits extend beyond consumption - the 3.5L offers superior power and a better torque curve than the naturally aspirated V8. MT also suggests that Ford's 3.7-liter V6 could form the base engine for the next Navi - it has similar horsepower but a lot less torque than the current 5.4L. That may be less of a problem with the next generation tipped to go on a diet, which could level the playing field somewhat.
