YOU ARE VIEWING AN ORIGINAL UNRESTORED 1956 FORD FAIRLANE VICTORIA 2-DR HARDTOP. THIS CAR WAS SOLD NEW AT ROZAN MOTORS IN MITCHELL AND HAS SPENT ITS ENTIRE LIFE IN DRY, ARID SO. DAKOTA….. 47K ACTUAL AND DOCUMENTED MILES FROM NEW. IT IS STILL WEARING THE ORIGINAL FACTORY COLONIAL WHITE PAINT AND HAS NO RUST.  THE CAR WAS IN DRY STORAGE  FROM 1972-2014 AND WAS RECENTLY BROUGHT BACK TO RUNNING CONDITION RECEIVING A NEW BRAKE SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM INCLUDING GAS TANK,  EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND TIRES. ALL SYSTEMS WERE SERVICED AND FLUIDS CHANGED. ORIGINAL SPARE IS STILL IN THE TRUNK AND NEVER BEEN DOWN. ALL GLASS IS GOOD EXCEPT FOR ONE SMALL CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD THAT’S BEEN THERE SINCE 1959. INTERIOR IS FACTORY ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR CARPET, FACTORY HEADLINER IS BEAUTIFUL. CAR RUNS AND DRIVES AWSOME AND IS EQUIPPED WITH FACTORY POWER STEERING, REAR FENDER SHIELDS, AND ROCKER TRIM. CHROME IS EXTREAMLY NICE WITH LITTLE TO NO PITTING…. Footnote.  I don't mean to be brash about selling a car, but this car is not an example that you will come across very often.  I know what I have searched out and found over the years. I like un-restored cars....with original factory paint. With original paint, you know the body underneath that you are buying. While I appreciate nicely restored cars, I do not own restored vehicles. Some of the so-called best restored cars have been hit, thrown together, etc. Not for me. I used to own restored cars but not anymore. Too many issues...the body being hit, rust, major components being lifted from another car, reproduction parts, and poor workmanship being some of the important ones. It is worth searching and finding the GOOD original UNRESTORED cars.....and if it costs more money once you have found what you are looking for...and it should...it's worth every penny....at least to me.  Nothing better than to look at that car in your garage knowing that the car you own is one that the factory built and not one built by a local shop doing their best imitation of the original. Not my cup of tea. Nobody does it like the factory, and that is truly reflected in today’s values and desirability of UNRESTORED classic cars. SERIOUS BIDDERS/BUUYERS ONLY.IF YOU HAVE ANY NON PAYING VIOLATIONS, PLEASE MOVE ON. THANK-YOU.

Ford Fiesta RS with 250 horsepower mooted

Thu, Jan 29 2015

We know Ford is unveiling a new Focus RS on February 3, and it's heavily rumored to arrive brandishing an all-wheel-drive powertrain and as much as 350 horsepower. The folks at Ford Performance have also promised they are working on at least 12 models through 2020, and that still leaves a lot of time to get additional exciting vehicles out the door. One of those could be an RS version of the Fiesta, according to Evo. An RS take on the latest Fiesta would obviously need substantial boosts in both power and handling ability to warrant the work over the current top Fiesta ST (pictured above), which is already one of our favorite cars. Evo speculates that the 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder could be tuned further, possibly up to about 250 horsepower, and the high-performance hatch might even take some inspiration from the Fiesta WRC rally car with an all-wheel drive system. An unnamed Ford spokesperson remained cagey about the chances for the pint-sized hot hatch to Evo, though. "We can't say anything at this moment, but we have promised to produce 12 performance models in the coming years. We'll leave it for you to decide whether that includes a Fiesta at this moment," the source said to the magazine. Evo doesn't expect a launch across the pond until at least 2017, if it actually happens. Of course, there's the lingering question of whether such a niche project would work in the US. In Europe, the Fiesta RS would challenge similarly diminutive speedsters like the Volkswagen Polo R and Audi S1, but true competitors of an equivalent size here would be much more scarce. In fact with 250 hp, the hotter Fiesta could provide unwelcome competition within Blue Oval showrooms for the Focus ST.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Grand Marquis LS

Sat, Jan 21 2023

Ford's now-defunct Mercury Division first began using the Marquis name in 1967, on a sporty full-size hardtop based on the Ford LTD, then began offering the Grand Marquis beginning in the 1979 model year. These big, boxy luxury sedans were replaced by big, curvy luxury sedans (on the same platform) starting with the 1992 model year, so today's Junkyard Gem is one of the very last squared-off Grand Marquises ever built. The 1991 Grand Marquis (or "Grandma Keith," as many refer to it today) looks nearly identical to its 1979 predecessor at a glance, just as the 2011 model doesn't differ much from the 1992 model. Ford saw no reason to follow short-lived fashion trends with its simple, sturdy rear-wheel-drive sedan. Only two Grand Marquis trim levels were available for 1991: the base GS and the (somewhat) upscale LS. The former listed at $18,741 and the latter at $19,241, which comes to about $41,494 and $42,601, respectively, in inflated 2022 dollars). This interior would have seemed comfortingly familiar to a 1968 (or even 1958) Mercury owner time-traveling to 1991.  This is the optional "full grain leather seating surface," which cost an extra $489 (about $1,083 today). Dig those opera lights! Air conditioning was standard equipment in the 1991 Grand Marquis and its wagon counterpart, the Colony Park. The engine is the good old pushrod 5.0-liter Windsor V8, which would be replaced by a far more modern 4.6-liter SOHC mill in the '92 Grand Marquis. This engine was rated at 180 horsepower. A four-speed automatic was the only transmission available. The early 1990s ended up being the last gasp for padded vinyl roofs being considered mainstream equipment on new Detroit cars; this one was called the "Formal Coach" roof and cost an additional 725 bucks ($1,605 now). Such roofs were still available on a few cars later in the decade, but their time had passed. Why would such a clean Grandma Keith end up in a place like this? That's easy: it got T-boned directly into the right front wheel, mangling the body and bending up the suspension. This damage might have been worth fixing when the car was five years old, but it's a write-off when it happens to a 31-year-old Ford Panther. 1991 Mercury Grand Marquis Commercial - Savings Ad The granddaddy of them all, and on sale in South Texas!

Jay Leno drives postcard-perfect '32 Ford Highboy Roadster

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

At the turn of the century, it was arguably the Honda Civic that best defined inexpensive performance tuning, and in the '50s it was the Tri-5 Chevys. One of the earliest platforms to gain a huge following among young people looking for a cheap way to go fast was the classic '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. This week, Jay Leno's Garage looks at one of the very first vehicles that defined the look of the hot rod heyday.
This '32 Ford was built in the '40s and graced the cover of the fourth issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in 1948. All of the hot rods that you see shining at car shows today owe a serious debt of gratitude to this roadster. It bears all of the cues that define the look, including a notched frame and hidden door hinges. Under the three-piece hood is a flathead V8 boasting all sorts of period modifications, including copper cylinder heads. It was seriously fast in its era too, and proved it by reaching 112.21 miles per hour on a dry lakebed in 1947.
These days, this hot rod is on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Although, if you can't make it to California to see it, the United States Postal Service is celebrating this Ford with one of its two hot rod Forever stamps. Like Jay says in the video, in terms of hot rodding, "it all comes back to this." Check out the video to learn more about this rolling piece of tuning history.
