I saved this little diamond from a mad scientist gear head sorta guy! This little car was "restored" when it was still a 6 banger 3 spd papaw car, then it passed into the hands of a "fabricator" who cut the entire stock front suspension out of it and attempted to install a fox body mustang front, rear, and drive train in it. It sat unfinished for several years until it was swapped to a local junkyard for an engine. Then a fellow motorhead rescued it from the jaws of the crusher and made plans to slice and dice it. I talked him into letting me swap a fistful of dead kiteflyers for it.... and here we are! The front rails have been repaired with boxed tubing and is ready for an IFS. the rear still has the OEM leafs in place. When this lil car received its original facelift it got NEW bumpers (fr & rr) NEW weatherstripping, NEW paint, NEW windshield, NEW interior. All the cosmetics are good. it simply needs the giddy-up-go parts. Now I DO have a fresh 1970 460 w/dove heads, a T-5 tranny, Ladder bar kit and coilovers, and a set of American Racing Torque Thrust D's 17x9.5's and 17x6's with new z rated tires that is NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION!  All of which can be PURCHASED POST AUCTION. Then all you need is a mustang II IFS and a 9"...... and of course some glue! Im selling this car as-is where-is. I fully expect the winning bidder to pick this up in East TN. I have equipment and the ability to load it onto your trailer without damaging the car. I have so many projects, Im a lifetime behind, thats the only reason Im letting it go. It would make a great pro touring or even a gasser if you must. I am more than willing to provide any information that will allow a bidder to make a well informed intelligent decision. Please ask any questions you might have. The winning bidder will be required to make a deposit of $1000.00 thru paypal @ the end of the auction with the balance due in cash or certified funds upon pick up. If you have a boatload of neg feedback you need to contact me before bidding. Thanks for viewing my auction and good luck!

Enterprise working with renter's insurance to cover $47k Mustang stolen from its lot

Sat, 11 Jan 2014

There was more than a bit of public indigence following the recent story of Enterprise Rent-A-Car billing a customer $47,000 to replace a Ford Mustang GT Convertible stolen from a Nova Scotia lot. To recap: Kristen Cockerill rented the Mustang for two days, returned it to the lot on a Sunday and left the keys in a secure dropbox only for Enterprise employees to find the car gone the next day.
Despite Enterprise policies stating that customers are responsible for vehicles dropped on off-days, the company has admitted that the situation could've been handled a bit better.
In a recent statement, Enterprise has backed off the big-bill story, and claims to be working with Cockerill and her insurance company to resolve the issue. Further, the Enterprise general manager overseeing Nova Scotia has spoken with the harried renter, and apologized "for the way this claim was handled during the last few months."

Ford Transit production fires up, American Pickers among first takers

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

Not long ago, the History Channel showed a seemingly unending stream of World War II documentaries, but it made a switch a few years ago to include an increasing mix of 'reality' programming. American Pickers was one of the early attempts at this new formula, with cameras following hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz around the country in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as they tracked down collectibles and "rusty gold" for their Iowa shop, Antique Archeology. The show has since gone on to become one of the channel's most popular programs.
Starting in the new episode airing tonight, the affable hosts will swap their Benz for a 2015 Ford Transit, a nicely timed bit of marketing to coincide with the launch of the model's assembly at the Blue Oval's Kansas City Assembly Plant, which also kicks off this week. Ford is touting 2,000 new jobs created as part of its $1.1-billion investment in the plant.
No strangers to product placement, the guys from American Pickers say their switch away from the Sprinter is because they wanted to balance cargo capacity and fuel economy to make the most of their cross-country jaunts. They opted for the largest Transit available with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof, giving them 487 cubic feet of cargo room. Hauling power comes from a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel engine with 190 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque and a six-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Fittingly, the van wears the same Antique Archaeology logo over white paint as their old Sprinter.

Ford recalls more than 550,000 trucks and SUVs for various safety issues

Wed, Aug 12 2020

Ford announced safety recalls for its current F-150 pickup along with several Ford and Lincoln crossovers early Wednesday. The recalls cover more than 550,000 vehicles and address various safety defects, ranging from a fire hazard to potential loss of braking power.  The most far-reaching of the recalls covers approximately 550,000 examples of the 2015-2018 Ford Edge and 2016-2018 Lincoln MKX, which may have been assembled with defective front brake jounce hoses (also commonly referred to as "flex lines"). These hoses run from fixed points on the chassis to the individual front brake calipers. Defective hoses could potentially rupture, allowing brake fluid to leak and resulting in a loss of braking function. Ford will replace the components in question with revised parts.  The next-largest recall is for roughly 3,000 2020 Lincoln Corsair crossovers. The affected models may have been assembled without proper clearance between their rear suspension springs and toe link brackets. The components could potentially make contact, wearing down the protective coating on the rear coil springs, allowing corrosion to occur over time. This corrosion could eventually lead to a failure of the spring. If this happens while the vehicle is being driven, it could result in a sudden change to the vehicle's handling characteristics, and the spring fragments could potentially cause further damage to the car or surrounding traffic.  Ford says owners will be notified that their Corsairs need to be inspected; if there is not adequate clearance between the rear suspension components, Ford's service technicians will remove material from the toe link bracket to allow for operation without contact.  The final (and by far the smallest) recall is for the 2020 F-150. Some units may have left the factory with the incorrect retention nut on the hot lead to the starter motor. Ford says it can cause increased heat generation or electrical arcing, which could potentially result in a fire. Ford says this issue is limited to just a few hundred examples sold in the United States. Dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace the nut if necessary.
