Needs a new rubber lining kit for front and rear lights. Interior needs a kick panel on drivers side, latch repaired on center console and rearview mirror put back on (parts included). Nice int."

This is a great project car. It did not have the original engine in it when we bought it in 2006. We would have had more done to it if I hadn't become ill and had to quit work.  The electrical needs to be reconnected on the door switches and the headlights. I believe all wiring is present. Also comes with a Budge car cover. There are a couple of places where the paint has chipped off. Not the original paint job. And,

the rear panel behind the rear window is rusted, a new one comes with the car, but has not been installed yet.  The rust on the lower outer kick panel on the passenger side, should be easily repaired by rust remover and a little bondo.  The car was involved in an accident before we purchased it. The front grill and bumper had been badly damaged so we found a replacement in very good condition with headlights.  The support brackets behind the bumper need to be straitened a little more before the bumper can be tightly secured.  Rear bumper and trunk was slightly pushed in and needs to be pulled out. The trunk does not latch right now, but all the parts to fix it after pulling it out are included.  The interior is  in pretty good condition, some small things need repair. Carpet is still in good condition.  The 390 engine came out of a '73 Ford F250 and was rebuilt and painted. We used some of the parts off the other engine, like the Thunderbird valve covers. We were going to put in a dual Flex-Lite fan, which is included with car. It may need new springs or shocks and It has a new electronic ignition as well.  I don't want to sell her, but I have to do to unforeseen circumstances. She has GREAT potential. Shipping will be buyers responsibility.

Ford 1.0L EcoBoost 3-Cylinder: Autoblog Technology of the Year award finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

As the old saying goes, "There's no replacement for displacement." But these days, many automakers are launching powerful, downsized engines that offer similar or better power output than their predecessors, all while offering improvements in fuel economy and emissions. These days, we're seeing automakers replacing eight-cylinder engines with turbocharged sixes, and the naturally aspirated six-cylinder motors are being phased out in favor of potent turbo fours. But Ford has gone even smaller, offering a three-cylinder, turbocharged engine with one single liter of displacement.
Sure, three-cylinder engines aren't anything new - they've been offered around the globe for ages. But Ford's EcoBoost 1.0L powerplant is perhaps the best application the Autoblog team has tested. Gone are the triple-cylinder complaints of yore - this engine doesn't sound anemic or buzzy, and there's healthy power output on tap. In fact, compared to the 1.6-liter inline-four that Ford also offers in the Fiesta, the 1.0-liter is more powerful, while boasting an impressive 45 miles per gallon on the highway.
This engine has already received numerous accolades, including winning the International Engine of the Year award in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The 1.0L EcoBoost will be available in the refreshed 2015 Ford Focus here in the US.

Long winter means most automakers won't curb summer shutdown

Sun, 18 May 2014

A lot more happened during this latest brutal winter than days of snow and Netflix binges. Automotive sales took a battering. After all, going out car shopping when it's eleventy-billion degrees below zero isn't a good time.
Because of this Old Man Winter-induced sales slump, inventories are abnormally high as we head into the summer car buying season. That's led some analysts to predict that automakers will be more inclined to idle factories this summer, in a bid to trim some of the built-up inventory. Traditionally, American manufacturers offer up a two-week break in the middle of summer, although the burgeoning sales of the past few years have seen this practice become less popular.
"We're likely not going to see an acceleration this year," Jeff Schuster, a senior vice president at LMC Automotive, told The Detroit News. "We'll see production increases in 'pockets' but I don't know if it will be as widespread as in recent years."
