Up for sale is a 1998 Ford Expedition XLT 5.4L Triton V8 Motor, with 131,476 miles on it. I bought it in Februrary, planning to repair everything to restore it cosmetically, and tow with it.  Title is clear, and in hand. The truck appears to me,  to have been in an accident, due to the various body damage that it has on it.  Once listed, vehicle information should be available within the listing.

I don't want to put anymore money into it, and am looking to recoup some of the money invested.  After I bought it, I had to have the inner and outer tie rods replaced, tires, and an alignment.  So the Good-Engine and Trans, Tires, inner and Outer tie Rods, Alignment, and Hitch.  Have all paperwork for that recent work which costs me $990 total.
  It has 4 wheel drive, but when I tried it to get out of a parking spot, it didn't seem to help, so I am not sure what the issue is.  Bad- Cosmetically not appealing, and there is a wire that came loose on the passenger side, that appears to plug into something, but didn't keep it from driving.  I am not sure what it is, but I drove it back from Chicago that way last night, and have driven it today as well. If I find out what it is, I will ad it to the listing later.  It has tan leather seats, that need TLC, and no 3rd row seat.  Seatbelts work in the front and the passenger rear side only.  The worst area is probably the passenger rear quarter panel, the front passenger headlight and corner light, and the bumpers.

The passenger front window won't come down.  The driver's side looks pretty good.  There is a hitch on the SUV, but no ball.  The back door opens and window, however it did get stuck on me once and wouldn't open.  The top hinge of the rear window needs fixing.  All items can be found at a junkyard, and replaced. Found headlight 4 piece set on ebay for $50.  Has an aftermarket CD player that works, but not great, and speakers are horrible, except maybe one. The exterior is Black, with some flat black painted areas.  Feel free to ask me questions, and I will respond the best I can , with what I know about the truck. 

Running a 3 day auction, or you can click the Buy it now and buy it immediately.  Upon Auction end, payment of $750 is expected within 24 hours, and the remainder within 3 days.  Depending on the distance, I may be able to drive it to you, for an extra charge, which I would require through Paypal, and can add to the invoice.  If that is of interest, please send me a question through Ebay and let me the city and state you are in.  I am near Champaign, Illinois, two hours south of Chicago, Illinois.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
