Drivers side drum is shot with hole in it. See pictures. The back of the frame doesn't look bad from what i can see but the front core support member needs help or maybe can't be fixed but included is a front core support frame section that i cut out of a 1963 1/2 galaxie xl frame.                                                                                                                                                     I will also be installing the rear end and  regular rear springs from that same XL frame to make this a roller.  It wasn't till October that 427 cars got 31 spline axles and this one is a 28 spline so it  would be correct for 427 early cars which this one is.  It still has the door jam tag and cal tags attached and a clean Oregon title. It decodes as.

See pictures.                                                                             Also an alarm sticker. Did the car get stolen and had to be rebuilt. Or is this one of 12 gold light weight cars that got rebuilt with regular parts after it crashed??? I wish i knew the stories it could tell about those 411 gears and how many people say its tail lights at the end of the run???? It appears it might have ran with skinny tires on 15x7 us slot mags that i will have on the front of the car with newer 165 /15 tires that hold air. The wheels have patina like they lived there for 40 or more years.                                                                                                                                 Then there is the special seat belts that were only in the front but that say Superior ind model 985????? Were they race car  seat belts???Not included in sale!!!  And how many cars were ordered with 411 rear ends and for what use????? I wish it could talk and tell me stories!!!!  If any one knows what car it was please help me id it. It came back to the mainland to Portland Oregon and with its friend a light weight car that was thought to be Bonhams car that now houses the original engine trans and rear end out of this car. ? I think it might have some race history and if you know it does please help if not for the car but the people of Hawaii this could be a national treasure not junk!! License number AXX 191 aloha state.                                                                                                                                                                                                           Don't laugh to much!

How privacy fears are driving automakers in the age of the connected car [w/poll]

Wed, Aug 27 2014

A recent GAO report concluded car companies don't adequately disclose how and why they share location data. As cars collect and store more and more data about the whereabouts of their drivers, automakers are responding to critics who say they should be more transparent about how those details are used. Ford is hiring a global privacy policy attorney to craft the company's customer privacy policies in the era of connected and autonomous cars. "In this emerging space, there is an important need to address customer privacy policies," reads a job description posted on the "people and careers" portion of the company's website. "As part of our compliance and ethics organization at Ford, this person will have an immediate and direct impact in shaping existing and future policy and corporate thinking in this area." Ford is creating the new position, based at its Dearborn headquarters, at a time technology advances are outpacing privacy protections. Earlier this year, a report from the federal government concluded car companies don't adequately disclose to motorists how and why they share location data. That report, from the Government Accountability Office, found many car companies did not describe how they shared location data, did not allow consumers to request their data be deleted and that there was a "wide variation" in how car companies retained vehicle-specific or identifiable location data. It noted there is increased risk of location data being used in ways "consumers did not intend." Ford was one of 10 companies the GAO surveyed while compiling its report. Customers are opting to share that data largely by using features like maps and turn-by-turn direction that are run by a vehicle's telematics unit. Depending on the company, it can be unclear how that data is collected, retained or shared. At the time the GAO report was issued, AAA, the nation's largest motoring club, urged carmakers to be more transparent in how they handle data and to offer stronger security protections. Shaping Autonomous Car Regulations At Ford, the new hire could change how the company handles that data. According to the job description, the successful applicant will, "demonstrate visionary thinking around privacy strategy – imagine how consumer and employee expectations around privacy may evolve and how business should adapt, develop approaches that maximize the benefit of data sharing for consumers and business, etc." (Emphasis from Ford).

Ford Q3 pretax profits drop to $1.18B

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Following positive third quarter financial results recently from General Motors, rival Ford took a tumble in Q3. The automaker posted pre-tax profits of $1.18 billion, compared to about $2.59 billion in Q3 2013, a drop of around 54 percent. Net income also suffered with $835 million made in the quarter, versus $1.272 billion last year, a decline of about 34 percent. The Blue Oval blamed the gloomy figures on three reasons in its release: "lower volume, higher warranty costs and adverse balance sheet exchange effects."
There were problems of one kind or another in practically every region. North America experienced higher warranty costs than expected, partially due to recalls. The sales volume for the quarter was 665,000 units, versus 725,000 in Q3 2013, and pre-tax results amounted to $1.41 billion versus $2.296 billion last year.
South America and Europe both posted worse pre-tax results than last year. On the bright side, European volume was up slightly to 321,000 vehicles, from 303,000 in Q3 2013. The Middle East and Africa also lost $15 million, but that was an improvement compared to the $25 million loss previously experienced in this region.

Ford sells 7-millionth Explorer in America

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Say what you will about the evolution of the Ford Explorer, from roofed Ranger to body-on-frame sport utility vehicle to unibody crossover - the bottom line is that it's been a tremendously successful model for Ford. In fact, the Blue Oval automaker has sold seven million Explorer models in the United States alone.
The milestone, marked nearly a quarter-century after the introduction of the original in 1990, comes on the eve of the introduction of a new Explorer at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week. We don't yet know how the new Explorer will shape up, but we're mere days away from finding out.
Now heading into its sixth generation, the Explorer has formed the basis of Ford's utility lineup for over two decades. The Explorer landed on the market right around the time that the Bronco was trailing off, predating the company's expansion into larger SUVs like the Expedition and Excursion and crossovers like the Escape, Edge and Flex.
