-Car has never been in an accident

-I have the carfax!

-137,000 miles may go up it's my daily driver

-My wife broke the driver side window regulator I'll fix before the auction ends if I have time!! It is still somewhat operational.

-Could use sway bar bushings. A soft squeak can be hear sometimes over certain bumps. Chicago roads are full of bumps....

-Brakes squeak sometimes when hot.

-Engine could use some routine maintenance (Chain guides and tensioners) Just being honest. The car runs great and will continue to, but sometimes on cold days there is a little chatter right when you start it up. Very typical for these engines. I'd say 4/5 of them with over 120,000 miles do it. The parts are $100 it takes about 2 hours to fix. You don't have to be a genius to do it. If you are interested in the car but worried we can work something out. I can fix it for you for an additional $200. Or, just drive it. I'm just anal I am a mechanic and my job is driving vehicles and diagnosing what is wrong with them so I notice everything..

The paint has some touch up work where some of the white has peeled on the roof. There are some dings and small dents here and there and some scratches. Keep in mind it was an actual police car and hasn't had any paint work since. Still, Cleans up great and has a very lustrous shine.

-Over all you really cant beat it. Great car at a great price drives like new.  I buy and sell a lot of Crown Victoria's this is by far the nicest driving one I have come across yet.

-Turn the key and drive it home or anywhere.

-Feel free to ask questions. I encourage anyone interested to come look at it or drive it before buying. I promise no let-down.

 Thanks - Mike                       Happy bidding!

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013



The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.

Muscle wins big at 2013 Amelia Island Concours as 1936 Duesenberg, 1968 Ford GT40 take top honors

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

The 18th-annual Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance took place this past weekend, and in one of the show's biggest years yet (bringing in more than 25,000 spectators and attracting more than 300 vehicles), two powerhouses ended up winning the judges' hearts. The top Concours d'Elegance award went to a 1936 Duesenberg SJN, while the Concours de Sport went to one of the celebrated marques, a 1968 Ford GT40.
Owned by Helen and Jack Nethercutt of Sylmar, CA, this flawless Duesy is described as "one of the most powerful open cars of the 1930s," and it displays design cues of the era like rolled fenders and a tapered rear end. The SJN's supercharged straight-eight allowed it to accelerate to 100 miles per hour in just 17 seconds - surely not a disappointing feat for its day.
On a much different level of performance and timelessness, this Gulf-livery GT40 from the Rocky Mountain Auto Collection is not outdone by the elegance of the big Duesenberg thanks to some well-documented racing history. This not only includes winning at LeMans in both 1968 and 1969 - Chassis No. 1075 also managed to win a total of six times in just 11 races.
