I am very pleased to offer this "EXCEPTIONAL" 1955 Ford Sunliner Convertible. This beautiful American classic has been fully restored to "Show Winning" condition. The restoration was completed about 2 years ago and the car has been driven very little since. The car was painted in a beautiful yellow over white. The paint work is of the highest quality and shows beautifully. The body on this Sunliner was amazingly solid and it shows. The body is straight as an arrow and looks beautiful. All the chrome and bright work has been replaced or rechromed. The convertible top was replaced along with the top motor and lines. The power top functions perfectly. All the glass is in great shape. The car rides on excellent tires and has brand new factory wire wheel covers that look great on this classic. The bottom of the car is very clean with no issues at all. This Sunliner is powered by the optional 292 V8 that was the first year used and most powerful engine offered in 1955. The car runs excellent! The car has the Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission that's make this car a true pleasure to cruise it. The car runs and drives excellent. A very reliable fun car to cruise in!! The interior of the Sunliner has been completely redone. It was done in a matching yellow and white two-tone and looks amazing!  The Sunliner looks factory new inside with original Ford Round push button radio, clock, and Ford magic Aire System. This is a very roomy comfortable car. The interior looks beautiful. This car also has power steering and  brakes. This really is an exceptional 1955 Sunliner. No expense was spared making this car beautiful and reliable. The car was appraised in 2012 by a world-wide auction company for $75,000. I'm selling this beautiful car to help fund the down payment on a vacation home for my family. I am offering the car "No Reserve" and I'm confident the right people who will appreciate this beautiful car as much as I have will bid it to a fair price. If your looking for a truly beautiful investment quality vintage automobile you found it!! I truly hope it goes to a good home and is appreciated and enjoy!! Thank You for looking at my listing. The car is available for inspection any time during this auction. I would be happy to work with any shippers that may move that car. I am available and will do everything I can to help make this a very smooth easy transaction. I have clear title in hand. If you have any questions I am happy to help answer them!! Thank You and Good Luck!!

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.

These Canadians somehow forgot how to drive in snow

Tue, Dec 6 2016

Montreal drivers experienced a slow-motion pileup on their streets this weeks thanks to the first snow fall of the season. According to the CBC, slippery conditions caused a small pileup involving cars, buses and even a street clearing vehicle. Onlookers in neighboring office buildings watched as vehicle after vehicle slid down Cote du Beaver Hall and crashed into the scrum of waiting cars. First there was a city bus, then a white Ford F-150 work truck loaded down with ladders, then another city bus came along and sandwiched the poor F-150. A Montreal Police Charger then came down the hill backwards, hit the bus in a slow, sad crash before it was crashed into by an out of control plow truck. Since its posting yesterday, the video of the crash has gone viral. Various other vehicles–a green-topped Scion delivery truck and a couple workaday sedans–were lucky enough to escape the pileup, but still suffered through a white-knuckled slippery descent down the hill. Colin Creado, who works nearby the crash site, told the CBC although it was pretty slippery, he was surprised at all the carnage since the storm was forecast well in advance. "You would have thought ... they would have salted the area or at least cordoned it off, because that road is pretty steep," he told the station.

Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America

Wed, May 27 2015

Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.
