"NO RESERVE" listing, but note that the winning bidder will have $60.00 added to the final bid to pay for the ebay fees. Sorry, but listing cars is expensive! Rare, solid project car. We have the title in hand. Would be a great platform to restore, customize, or turn into a "Rat Rod". (Even had one guy who wanted to turn this into a hybrid vehicle!) Please note the car DOES NOT currently run, but the engine is not frozen and will turn over with a breaker bar on the crank bolt. Not the original engine, but a larger, 200 inline six was installed at some point. (originally came with a 144 inline six) The generator and starter motor are missing. The car currently is partially disassembled, but everything that was taken off of the car is present, and any hardware was bagged and labeled. Outer steering column sleeve, steering wheel, gauge cluster, have been removed and we have them all. Both front fenders are off the car, (straight, solid, and clean) along with the windshield trim, headlights & surrounds, tail lights & buckets/lenses,  grill and rear/front bumpers and filler panel. The rear tailgate has been damaged, but could easily be repaired with a little effort & know how and is off of the car. The interior has been stripped, and the included seats are not original, but we have one door panel and everything else that we removed. I will include pictures of the car when I first bought it and the rest of how it looks now. My son and I were working on the car but health issues, and lack of funds, and my son discovering girls, have stalled the project. We'd like the car to get the attention and love it deserves. We have several boxes of parts, the car is 95% present. (Likely more, but we're being conservative) VERY little rust for it's age and model. These cars have a reputation to rust and rot out, but this one is amazingly solid. The rocker panels are perfect, and the doors line up and open and close smoothly. The passenger door does not latch properly, as the mechanism needs repair. Glass is present and in good shape. The bed is straight and clean. The floor boards have one small rust hole, about the diameter of a pencil, on the driver's side. Also have a model specific wiring guide booklet, which is quite detailed and informative. Will also include several parts catalogs if the new owner wants them. Again, a solid platform to restore, customize, or what have you. The tires are old bias ply and not in good shape at all. (we have all five original rims) Think the back tires will hold air long enough to load on a dolly or trailer, etc. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us via ebay.

Shipping is the sole responsibility of the new buyer but I'll assist as I'm able with logistics, etc. I reserve the right to end the auction early, with or without bids, as I have the car listed for sale locally and have had a lot of interest. You won't be disappointed! Car MUST be paid for in full within 7 business days of auction's end or listing's end. Paypal for the deposit is fine, and a $200.00 deposit is due within 24 hours of auction's end. The balance due within the timeframe stated above.

Cash, check, is acceptable for payment, but the car will NOT leave here until fully and completely paid in full and all funds have cleared. I will consider any "Buy It Now" offer over $1100.00 prior to any bids being placed, but no "low ball" offers, please. I'm not trying to get rich off of this car, but she is rare, and hard to find one not all rotted to pieces and this complete. I have described the car to the best of my ability, and I'm an honest seller, so please don't waste your, or my, time if you won't/can't complete the transaction in a timely fashion. Good luck and bid to win! Again, feel free to ask any questions...

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.

Former Ford president, Jaguar chairman Nick Scheele dead at 70

Sun, 20 Jul 2014

We have the privilege here at Autoblog of reporting a lot of good news, but it is our duty as well to report the bad news and sad news as well. And this is one of those occasions as the automotive industry mourns the passing of one of its leaders.
Nick Scheele was born in the UK in 1944 and joined the Ford Motor Company upon graduating from the University of Durham in 1966, staying within the Blue Oval's portfolio for the entirety of his career. After moving to North America in 1978, he rose through the ranks to become president of Ford's Mexican operations in 1988. After acquiring Jaguar, Ford appointed Scheele as its chairman.
Scheele subsequently acted as chairman of all of Ford's European operations, making difficult decisions to take the division out of the red and into the black. He briefly headed up Ford's North American division before he was appointed in 2001 as president and chief operating officer of the global automaker, working under CEO Bill Ford following the departure of Jacques Nasser departure and retaining the role until his retirement in 2005.

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]

Sun, 29 Jun 2014

If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
