1988 Ford Country Squire LX Woody Wagon 5.0 V8 Fuel Injected engine, 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission.  This wagon is from the estate of the 2nd owner who recently passed.  The wagon was stored in a garage until a few years ago.  Maintenance records included!  Low mileage, just 78,608! It was last 2009.  In 2004 the wagon had 67,000 miles so it was driven very little the last 10 years.  The gas tank was emptied and replaced with new gas and the car runs great now.  There is a minor exhaust leak but it makes it sound really cool.  The valve cover gaskets leak a little after driving a while.  This is from the car sitting for so long.  It’s an easy repair.  The wagon can really benefit from a complete tune-up and fluid changes but it isn’t necessary right now, it drives great and always starts right up.  This classic wagon weighs less than 4000 pounds and gets great gas mileage and has plenty of power, tires will spin if you step on it.   Remember this has the Mustang engine so it’s easy to work on and parts are plentiful.  Looks very retro like wagons from the 60s Country Squires but has all the modern technology for a dependable cruiser.  Paint is all original and fading in some places.  There is minor surface rust on the driver’s door that can be easily repaired and color matched for very little money.  The woodgrain stickers on the side are worn and faded in spots.  The owner had some decals and reflectors that were removed from the painted surfaces but there is some residue left behind that is noticeable if you look close.  Most of the interior is nice, dash looks great, no tears in the seats, door panels or headliner.  Carpet is original and very nice and clean.  The wagon is eligible for classic car insurance and QQ classic license plates in NJ which means no inspection and can cost less than $200 per year to insure with zero deductible.    Clear Connecticut title ready to go.

2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost

Wed, 19 Nov 2014



A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype

Wed, 08 May 2013

Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.
