1976 Mustang Cobra Ii 302 V8 on 2040-cars
Brookfield, Wisconsin, United States
1976 Ford Mustang II Cobra with a 302 V8 and Automatic Transmission I am told the following was done before it was parked several years ago:
I have never received any documentation to prove the work listed above and I have never started or driven the car. Note: Included is the very rare Aluminum Rear Window Louvers and a brand new front spoiler (note: I was told the spoiler is for this model Mustang but cannot guaruntee it) Please note that this car is being sold in non running condition and I am making no representations or warranties as to its condition. VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS, and WITH ALL FAULTS" I recommend and encourage any prospective buyers to thouroghly and personally inspect the car prior to placing any bids. Unless you have made arrangements with me prior to bidding the car must be paid for in CASH upon in person pickup or if shipping must pay with cashiers check and allow 7 to 10 days for check to clear prior to pickup. ( absolutely NO PAYPAL, Personal CHECKS, MONEY ORDERS, etc.). Vehicle must be picked up within 7 to 10 business days of auction end. After 10 days a storage fee of $25 per day will accrue and vehicle will not be released until storage fee is paid. Note that paint appears better in pictures than it actually is - looks like it may have been partially repainted and sprayed with a clear coat - the clear is yellowed and chipping with numerous scratches and small dents - I would characterize rust as being minimal for this year car as they tended to be very rust prone. Interior is likewise rough with torn seats and missing carpet etc. I added a picture of the Mustang II Cobra with Farrah Faucett on the hood for those of us who remember Charlie's Angels. Several Mustang / Ford Brochures are also included ( see picture ) Please note that I poured a little gas into the carburetor and connected a battery and it did start and run momentarily and sounded pretty good.. Because it has been sitting for so many years I suspect the gas in the tank is bad - plus it smells aweful.
I tried the brakes and they seem to be working with decent pedal. |

Ford Escort Concept goes back to basics
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Here's the thing about China: The folks buying cars there have a very different set of standards than shoppers in many other markets around the globe. While we all drool over hot metal with bold designs, and while we appreciate automakers going an extra step to inject even their cheapest offerings with aggressive and interesting cues, that sort of sheetmetal sex appeal doesn't always sell in the People's Republic. Case in point is Jaguar, which may be designing a more traditional-looking version of its XJ for the Chinese market, or more to the point of this story, Ford currently sells the less-exciting, last-generation Focus compact in China right alongside the new one.
So consider this new Shanghai-bound C-segment concept a preview of what's to come for that more traditional, budget-minded, less-sexy market. More proof of this pudding: Ford's even calling this concept the Escort - a nod to the Blue Oval's compact car days of yore, and a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design. "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious," Ford states. And this new Escort concept previews a possibility of providing exactly that for this rapidly expanding automotive market.
What you're looking at, then, is one of the most simple Ford designs we've seen of late, though it still incorporates all of the automaker's latest DNA. The signature hexagonal grille is front and center, flanked by attractive LED headlamps and chrome-rimmed foglamp housings. The entire car's design focuses on clean, smooth surfaces, with one strong character line flowing from front to back just below the beltline. We will say that the car looks decidedly more premium from the rear view, where narrow, horizontal taillamps with an LED accent give the car added visual width. Bland as it may be, it's a handsome little concept, though fear what would likely happen if all of the conceptual details get dumbed down for a production model.
2015 Ford S-Max adds all-wheel drive, adaptive steering
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The Blue Oval's 'One Ford' mantra has seen rapid commonization of the automaker's products across markets, but North America still has to look from afar at most of the company's Max-branded people movers, including this new S-Max. That's a bit of a shame - we like the space efficiency and above-average driving dynamics of the C-Max models we do get, but seeing this updated seven-seat small minivan makes us want the One Ford initiative to extend even further.
The new model's changes include an updated powertrain range including a 1.5-liter EcoBoost four with 158 horsepower, and a larger, 237-horsepower, 2.0-liter model, along with a pair of revised lower-emissions 2.0-liter diesels. The big news, however, is the advent of available all-wheel drive, something that hasn't been offered since the S-Max first went on sale back in 2006.
On the technology front, the S-Max is the first European model to receive Ford Adaptive Steering, a variable-ratio technology we recently sampled in a prototype Fusion that is expected to go into production on the next-generation Edge. The S-Max also receives a new aluminum-intensive integral link rear suspension, packaged to continue to fit up to 32 different seating combinations. Safety equipment is always a prime concern in kinschleppers like the S-Max, and to that end, this new model receives pre-collision assist technology and LED headlamps.
Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue
Fri, 15 Aug 2014Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.
