Attention to all of Oldshep12's awesome customers,,, My father is no longer able to list all of the Fobs from his 50+ year collection or other select items he's selling. I am Doug Simon (ebay ID markmartinstheman), Ed's son & the one who helped him with his selling on ebay. I have been doing ebay since 1999, and have done over 5,000 transactions with great success, but mostly in the automotive area,,, and though dad & I were involved with collecting fobs together when I was younger, I haven't been involved with them since the 70's,, so PLEASE bare with me on my knowledge on all of his items. At some point, ebay may require me to sell his items from my own account (markmartinstheman), so for now I'm basically trying to introduce myself with all of dad's faithful customers. All of the proceeds from dad's items are to help out my mother. Thanks,, if you have any questions on items, please ask,, email me or you can call me on my cell (319) 389-8507 10am-11pm central time (evenings are better since I'm usually home after 6pm) This auction is for: (1) Low Mileage "99 Ford Ranger" Ext. Cab, 62K, 2 wd, 4 dr. This was dad's very nice "LOW MILEAGE" 1999 Ford Ranger XLT that he took very good care of(well maintained) and kept in a garage. Presently, it only has 62,602 miles on it. It is a 2 wheel drive, Extended Cab with 4 doors. The receipt for the matching topper said it cost around $1,100. Dad had also updated the rims, with (5) nice 16" aluminum wheels(including the spare). The Cooper tires are also in very good condition. I'm a 32 year mechanic, with the last 5 yrs. at a large used car lot, where I go through vehichles making them right/safe. Today I put dad's truck on the hoist & checked it all over. The truck looks to be in very good condition,,, and like every other vehicle, it has the normal rust coating on everything underneath the truck,, BUT, there are no signs of any major rust anywhere that I saw,, everything looks very solid! This truck has a Disc/Drum brake setup on it,,, and there's approx. 60-70% left on the brakes,,, the insides of the front rotors are rusted from sitting,,, but there is no pulsation during braking(very good feeling brakes). The underside of the truck looks very good,,, very dry,,, not coated with oil. The exhaust is still the factory stainless ex. with the exception of a Magnaflow Muffler,,, so the truck has a slight rumble,, but not too much(dad was in his 70's). Under the hood looks very good also,, just the normal light dirt. I changed the oil today,, and cleaned the $50 Amsoil, nano-fiber air filter(keep this clean with light air pressure & it should outlast the truck, this is the best air filter you can buy,, high flow rate, but yet it's 98% efficient @ 2 microns. All of the fluids looked good(I topped them off), and so does the Serp. belt. The battery has also started the truck up every time,, even after sitting a week. Of coarse the topper is removable,, and as you can see in the picture,, there are a couple of sand bags in the back along with a full rubber floor mat, rug & a set of jumper cables(all included). The tail gate works just fine, and so do the topper's back window(with a slight finessing to latch it). Overall the condition of the exterior is pretty good for it's age,,, there is a slight amount of body rust,, but not that much, and not that bad at all. When you look at the pics,, the worst spot is on the right-rear wheel well lip,, but even that's not that bad,, but you be your own judge. The interior is in very-very good condion,, everything seems to be in good condion & is in working order(not sure about the casset player). The AC works great,, along with the radio & AC/Heater selectors. The windows are hand crank,, non electic,,, they work just fine, but the driver's side one pops a little, right at the top when closing,, but it closes just fine. Don't let the age of this truck fool you,, it's a great truck!! Low mileage trucks like this sell for 6k and above on the car lots around here,,, SO you can Save BIG Here!!! You Must Pay for this truck when you pick it up,, I will NOT take any personal checks for this item,, and I will NOT accept payment through Paypal,,, unless you want to pay that 3% fee! You can contact me here(through an email question), or call 1-(319)-389-8507,,, 10am-11pm (Central time) The truck is to be picked up at the shop where I work ( 150 7th Ave. Marion, Iowa 52302 (by Cedar Rapids, Iowa) within 7 days of the end of the auction, UNLESS otherwised arranged with me(DOUG) before the end of the auction! |

Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...
Tue, 17 Dec 2013Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
Enterprise working with renter's insurance to cover $47k Mustang stolen from its lot
Sat, 11 Jan 2014There was more than a bit of public indigence following the recent story of Enterprise Rent-A-Car billing a customer $47,000 to replace a Ford Mustang GT Convertible stolen from a Nova Scotia lot. To recap: Kristen Cockerill rented the Mustang for two days, returned it to the lot on a Sunday and left the keys in a secure dropbox only for Enterprise employees to find the car gone the next day.
Despite Enterprise policies stating that customers are responsible for vehicles dropped on off-days, the company has admitted that the situation could've been handled a bit better.
In a recent statement, Enterprise has backed off the big-bill story, and claims to be working with Cockerill and her insurance company to resolve the issue. Further, the Enterprise general manager overseeing Nova Scotia has spoken with the harried renter, and apologized "for the way this claim was handled during the last few months."
