This wagon has the very rare and desirable factory bucket seat option with a floor shift console. It also has rare power windows. I have too many cars to have the time to enjoy this one. I put new points in the distributor and it fires right up, but it does need some ignition wiring worked out. I have video of it running... As the photos show, the front buckets need to be addressed and so does the headliner. The only thing I see it's missing is the clock in the dash and the antenna mast. As far as rust goes, it's really very solid with just two dime size wholes in the pass side floor and a little in the roof on the corners, that's all I could find. The quarter panels are all solid. It's a shame that both rear quarters have slight damage around the taillights. There is a small section of fiberglass woodgrain missing from the drivers side. This car has gotten a lot of interest and everyone loves the very desirable patena that this original paint shows. I'm also under the impression that the whole car is original inside and out including the motor. I found the car exactly as it sits, just cleaned and photographed. I did put four new tires on it as the others were shot. I would call this a barn find that I found in a field. Clean clear California title and bill of sale from previous owner. Chris 310-709-5561

Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford
Tue, 07 Jan 2014
The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
