Many more pics avail on request.

I have stripped, bagged and tagged most of the car. Was running and driving a year ago.

This is a super rare Canadian Falcon variant.

I have ALL of the impossible to find trim items: Maple leaf emblems, hubcaps, front fender side trim, propeller styled grill, trunk lid, hood and decklid emblems, horn ring emblem, and unique air filter unit, etc.

Additionally, I have a super rare Australian Hood Bird for  the car, NOS front fender guides w. clear tips, a NOS set of rear fender spears (6 total), a prof, rebuilt pushbutton radio, repop fender skirts, full set or repop full rear 1/4s, manuals, and a few hundred $$ in other repop bits.

Glass is all good.

The bad? Front fenders, 1/4s and front floors. DS fender is to be replaced. PS has a patch. Floors need repop units - which are avail. and inexpensive. I am including full repop 1/4s in the sale - a $750 value!

All parts except trim are same as falcon - and Falcons, like Model Ts, have tons of repop stuff avail at low cost.

This is one of six known Frontenac 2dr to have survived, according to the experts.

Original color was dark metallic blue w. aqua blue interior and two tone blue upholstery.

These cars are cute as can be restored, and sought out for ProStreeting.

I have advertised the car for sale or trade on kijiji Ontario and elsewhere. See kijiji.ca Ontario ad # 1003527776

Mileage referenced is a guess - I forget actual mileage.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.
