Willis Wharf, Virginia, United States
1980 Ford Courier. 3 owner truck with 48k original miles. Miss Roberta from Girdletree Md. bought it new and sold it to Mike in 2011. I bought it from Mike last September. This truck has always been garaged until I bought it and never driven in snow. 2.3 Pinto motor, A/C, auto trans. Soft ride package and rear step bumper were the options. There is a sparkomatic radio and speakers installed. A/C unit is an ARA package and blows cold. Truck runs and drives great. Seems to run better every time I drive it.. A little slow off the line but really moves quite well once it gets rolling. Plenty of pep and passing power @ 55 mph. Everything works except one license plate bulb. When I bought it I did a complete tune up, oil & filter, and new shocks all around. Interior of the truck is like new. No rips, see photos. Mike painted the truck and did a fair job. There was no rust on it but they could have done a better job. Several runs and some orange peel. There is a small dent in right front fender and a little ding in passenger door. If I was going to keep it I would sand and spray the hood due to poor prep work. Check out the pictures of the interior and engine bay, very clean and original. Truck will come with 4 matching whitewall tires that have at least 75% tread. I am
selling it due to the purchase of an investment property and some toys must go. Willing to deliver it within 300 miles from my house for a fee of $200. Otherwise I can help with getting it transported but that expense is the buyers responsibility. |

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.
Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.
