CA Car New Engine
in 2007 @86,854 Ownership
change to PA @ 89,641 in Oct 2010 Runs great,
Fun Drive
Car was
purchased from CA owner in September 2010.
When I bought the car, the ad run stated the following” CA car… the
engine rebuilt, rebuilt the transmission and had new brakes installed. All electric system has been thoroughly
worked on and is in nice working condition.”
CA owner provided receipts for work to include the engine rebuilt in
2007, steering box replaced, battery replaced, head gasket, door locks and
flashers, mirror drivers side, foam added in front seats, rear leaf spring
bushing, vacuum lines, window motor and switch work, sway bar link and bushing
kit. Since I have owned the car, I had
work done on the top to include some switch replacement, solenoid replaced, all
new hose kit and the top has worked great ever since. It has been inspected for PA. I had the carburetor work done to replace
floats, and have done regular maintenance.
The car had 89641 on the odometer when I registered it and currently has
92,047. It is fun to drive, a head
turner, enjoyable vehicle with some charm.
It is not perfect. The previous
owner stated he had spent 15 to 20K on the car, I have spent around 5K. The price reserve is low in hopes to find
this bird a new home. As with any car, this bird has some wear and
some things that could be improved on they are as follows: Separation
of lather seat seem at back top about 1 inch. Water temperature gage and radio
do not work. Kick plate on interior passenger side is missing fuse cover and
cracked. Door panels show age with some cracking. Cigarette lighter missing.
Driver side mirror loose. Driver side fender at top has slight bubble in paint.
Passenger side right front fender has scrape type damage. Rear plastic window
is fogged. Other items may exist and buyer is welcome to have vehicle
inspected. Miles listed are at time of
listing and may be higher since the vehicle is driven on nice sunny days with
the top down and a smile on the face! |

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Ford E-Series chassis cabs and cutaways to survive mass Transit onslaught
Fri, 18 Apr 2014In March 2013, Ford announced we'd be getting chassis cab and cutaway versions of the Transit. Since incoming Transit vans will soon be rolling over the grave of the E-Series van, it was assumed that all E-Series models would go six feet under as well. According to a report from PickupTrucks.com, however, that's not the case, the report claiming that the highly modifiable E-350 and E-450 chassis cab and cutaway versions will continue being produced in Avon Lake, Ohio "at least until 2020."
Being decades old, the be-cabbed E-Series platform has found its way under an army of heavy-duty shuttle buses, work truck and ambulances. Ford spokeswoman Jessica Enoch verified the production horizon, telling Autoblog that the particular E-Series configuration "are a higher GVWR than the Transit chassis cab and cutaway (available this summer), which is more Class 2 and a new segment for us." So there you have it.
More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags
Thu, Jan 12 2017The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
