hello! this is the last of my project type cars. i have been moving a number of them in the last year and half. this is a great 59 wagon that be restored to original or make a great rat rod wagon. honest barn find here in ohio but was driven from 0klahoma in the early 80s. it has sat quite awhile, needs total restore but great bones and very complete except for minor things. first off let me say importantly that the car will need floor pans obviously. but i have taken much time to scrutinize all the rust issues on the car, and the outer body,doors, rockers and inner rockers,floor supports,core support,rear wheel wells and lips, inner and outer quarters are all incredibley good. it has one small rust area in the spare tire well at the forward dip, see pics. there is minor rust out under the rear seat reall just needs minor patching.that pont forward is what needs replaced as you can see in the pics. the supports where the pans set are excellent front and back, and where the pans meet the inner rockers are also perfect. it will be very easy to make your own for a quick job or lay new ones in and will be hard to even notice. the tailgate is excellent. the hood looks good from the outside but typical bottom lip is going.battery box area rusted but overall very nice inner fenders, air ducts etc. the interior is still pretty nice, typical front seat, but very respectable door panels, this is a 9 passenger and the jump seats are super nice. the bottom of the extra seat is there but the top is missing. even the original cardboard headliner isnt too bad. decent tinted glass all the way around,crack in left vent and left rear side. roll up and down great. the the right door has obvious damage but should be pulled out with out major effort. 332 auto condition unkown. pulled the plugs and oiled her up, does turn over by hand, at the least the trans stays in park very well i think f you had a rust running 59 4 door would be a good way to do the car, or a late model crown vic etc. it can go rat rod on a cheap budget as the outer body is fine as is.or a good car to restore to original. the mettalic blue was sprayed right over top the original wedgewood blue and is cooly flaking off in various places. there appears to be no previous body work any where. only known missing parts is hubcaps,wiper motor and air cleaner that i see. the sill plates where bad. ask any questions you have. this will make a neat car, the real main effort is the floor pans. will help with loading here. overseas buyers fine. 0 and lower negatives contact first or i will cancel bids if i smell a rat. thanks!

Ford Transit Skyliner Concept does discreet luxury in NYC
Thu, 17 Apr 2014There's something to be said for luxed-out vans. They're cool, and as a means of getting chauffeured about, they're extremely comfortable and far more low key than your typical executive luxury sedan. For the 2014 New York Auto Show, Galpin Auto Sports has shown the potential of the new-for-the-US Ford Transit as an ultra-luxurious people hauler.
The Transit Skyliner Concept, which we previewed last week, sports four finely crafted captain's buckets that can be moved into different formations based on need. Want to watch a movie? The seats can be swung around to face a 52-inch screen. Riding along with some business associates? A table can be popped up. There's even a configuration for tailgating.
The materials are, unsurprisingly, pretty plush. The leather seats and wood floors (yes, wood floors in a van) look great, while the trunk and its customized luggage are a nice touch, as well.
Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:
Ford launches pair of recalls affecting fullsize sedans and Transit Connect van
Wed, Jan 28 2015Ford has announced a pair of pretty significant recalls affecting the 2010-2013 Ford Taurus and Police Interceptor, as well as their platform-mate, the Lincoln MKS. A separate recall covers the 2014 Transit Connect. The fullsize sedans include 205,000 vehicles built at Chicago Assembly over a variety of timeframes, ranging between December 1, 2009 and November 30, 2012. The vehicles, 194,889 of which were sold in the United States, have an issue with the spring controls on the interior door handles that could cause the door to open in a side-impact crash. The Transit Connect recall, meanwhile, includes 16,100 vans built between November 6, 2013 and September 20,2014 at the company's Valencia, Spain factory. In these vehicles, the seatbelt fasteners may not have been tightened properly, which could cause them to loosen over time, a condition that's obviously bad news in the event of a crash. Ford says it is not aware of any accidents, injuries or crashes in either recall. Owners will, of course, be notified and asked to report in for inspections and if necessary, free replacements. Scroll down for the full press release from Ford, which includes the complete breakdown of dates during which the affected sedans were built in Chicago. JAN 28, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS Ford is issuing two safety recalls. No accidents or injuries are attributed to either of these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans for interior door handle issue Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 205,000 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans due to an issue with the spring that controls the interior door handles. If the spring is unseated, the door may become unlatched in a side-impact crash, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus vehicles built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant; certain 2010-2013 Lincoln MKS vehicles built June 2, 2011 to Oct. 31, 2011 at Chicago Assembly Plant; and certain 2010-2013 Ford Police Interceptor sedans built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant.
