"CAUTION" THIS MAY BE ADDICTIVE

VERY LOW MILES

Cruising in this totally original absolutely rust free 1962 Fairlane may be habit forming. Actual 41,000 low miles and it shows.

I just acquired it from the gentleman who had his eye on this classic for over 25 years. Finally was able to buy and add to his other cars. After spending a bunch on plugs, points, cap, rotor, ignition wires, carb kit, fuel filter, new gas line and remove, clean and coat inside and outside of gas tank plus labor, decided the fun maxed out. He decided to sell it to me. (Maybe because it still ran a little rough?) Anyway, I discovered and corrected an ignition wiring issue and now it purrs better than our cat. Fixed a tear and seam in the front seat, replaced the gear shift knob, played with it a little and now it's headed for your place. Don't forget to bid first.

I have the original Bill of Sale from the Ford Dealer in Missouri to the original owner in Lohman, Missouri where it is still located. The paint is original, never painted, just some light primer over some very thin paint areas on hood and right fender. Could be buffed out, painted or with some paint thinner, wipe off the primer for the patina look, it's optional. Has all original interior including rubber floor mats in excellent condition. The headliner is not as nice as the seats and door panels, they look excellent. Still has the cardboard heater operation instructions hanging from the heater controls (however, heater hoses are currently bypassed in the engine compartment.) Trunk sports the original mat, tire and bumper jack. Doors, hood and trunk lid open and close like new. All the sheet metal is lazer straight and rust free as is the entire under carriage. Looks like it was accident free also. Tires look new but they are not.

Some one loved and cared for this 1962 Fairlane since new and now it's up to you to carry on and enjoy this for years to come and watch your investment grow.

Ask questions or come look. That's free! I always recommend trailering to avoid issues.

Please don't bid if you have "0" feed back or negative feedback until you contact me first with some information to indicate that you are a serious bidder so that your bid will not be disqualified. Sorry but there are some who just play games.

Compact SUV Comparison: Specs, pics and reviews of every brand's crossover

Wed, Jul 25 2018

Honda CR-V vs Toyota RAV4. Chevy Equinox vs Ford Escape. Mazda CX-5 vs Subaru Forester. Whichever combinations of compact crossover SUV you're considering, there's probably a comparison test or chart out there to read. Heck, you can even create a three-car comparison yourself here at Autoblog. However, if you want a bunch of that information all in one convenient place, well, here it is. Our mega comparison of specs, features and photos of compact SUV entries from every mainstream manufacturer that sells them. That includes the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox, 2018 Ford Escape, 2018 GMC Terrain, 2018 Honda CR-V, 2018 Hyundai Tucson, 2019 Jeep Cherokee (it's already on sale with notable changes from 2018), 2018 Jeep Compass, 2018 Kia Sportage, 2018 Mazda CX-5, 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (none of Mitsu's SUVs are perfect fits for this segment, so we deemed the MEC the most competitive fit), 2018 Nissan Rogue, 2018 Subaru Forester, 2018 Toyota RAV4 and 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan. We can update this comparison as more information about 2019 models is released, most notably the Forester and RAV4. Now, there are certainly some models that are smaller (Nissan Rogue Sport) or larger (Kia Sorento) that could also be considered, but we figured it was wise to stick with those in this sweet spot of comparable size and price. We also included links to Autoblog reviews, buying guides and smaller comparisons. Engines and Transmissions With rare exception, this segment features four-cylinder power. Sometimes it's turbocharged, often its not, but standard engine outputs are generally in the same ballpark. Therefore, we'd recommend focusing on torque output, as it's what will make a difference around town or when passing, and weighing that versus fuel economy (the Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain, Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-5 make particularly strong cases in this regard). Many drivers aren't too fond of continuously variable transmissions (CVT), either, so that's another thing to consider and note during a test drive. As you can see, several models are available with performance upgrades. Besides the Jeep Cherokee's available V6, all are more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The exception to this would be the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape, as their 1.5-liter turbo engines don't prioritize performance. Instead, they serve as overall upgrades to the base naturally aspirated engines standard on only their base trim levels (CR-V LX and Escape S).

TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles

Wed, Jan 15 2014

We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.
