1964 Ford Fairlane 500 four door sedan.  This car was stored in a dairy barn since 1979.  The gentleman that originally owned the vehicle replaced the original 260 V8 engine with a 289 Special that he had acquired from a wrecked low mileage 65-66 Mustang.  The reason he changed the engine was because the original 260 threw its oil pump through the oil pan.  The car has not run since 1979 and appears to be very solid.  The floors and the trunk compartment are solid with no rust through.  The front fenders have some minor rust holes coming in the lower sections.  The inner fender at the battery box is rusted out, but all the shock towers are solid with not signs of visible rust.  The left rear quarter panel was damaged in the late 1970s, and the owner attempted to beat the fender back out.  There is no sign of rot in the rear quarters.  The under carriage including all boxed framing appears to be solid and complete.  There are some parts missing from the car and I have no idea what the gentleman did with the parts.  The parts that are missing from what I can see is the master cylinder, power steering pump, headlight bezels, hubcaps, spare tire, jack, and the grille.  Although there is a grille in the trunk which is in good condition, it appears the grille is from a 1963 Fairlane rather than the 64.  There is an extra set of taillights in the trunk as well as a few other parts that goes with the vehicle.  All of the glasses are in good shape, but the exhaust system has deteriorated.  The car is not running and has not been started since 1979, so please be advised that this is not a vehicle that someone can drive away.  It will require towing and time to get it back into running condition.  I am including enough pictures to give an accurate depiction of the overall condition of the vehicle.  Please take the time to study the pictures and ask questions prior to bidding.  All questions will be answered honestly and as accurately as possible.

The vehicle is currently being sold as-is and where-is with no warranty implied or expressed.  Make sure to ask any and all questions prior to bidding on this vehicle.  A deposit of $200.00 dollars will be required within 3 days from the close of auction.  The buyer is responsible for shipping and transport.  The high bidder can make additional arrangements with seller if both agree.  Full payment is required within 7 days of auction's close.  Cash or Cashiers Check/Money Order.

United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars

Tue, May 10 2016

Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America – which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports – and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models – AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders – the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars – Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories – a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant – that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.
