This car was a barn find. It was sitting there for 17 years. We pulled the car out of the barn. I replaced the distributor cap, spark plugs and wires and the car started right up. Except for the carburetor needs work and the old gas in the system. The car never smoked and it sat and idled and ran great. Except for the old gas in the system and the carburetor not working right the car is drivable. I think the accelerator pump inside the carburetor has dried up. The windshield is not cracked and there is no broken glass in the car. The car had a vinyl top on it. Someone had stripped it off so I do not have the moldings for it. The holes are still in the roof where the moldings were. I've looked the car over and I can't find any indication that the car has been wrecked hard but there is some body filler in a few places around the car. The car does need some body work. The lower left and right rear quarter panels are rusted out and the valance panel under the front bumper is damaged but there is a good one to replace it in the trunk. I haven't looked under the car but all the floor pans seem to be solid. I tried to take pictures of everything on the car that may be a problem so please pay attention to the pictures. THIS CAR HAS 83,000 ORIGINAL MILES. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION. At the end of the auction, $500 will be paid to PayPal. If money is not deposited in PayPal within 24 hours of the end of auction, the sale is voided. Negative feedback will be left and the car goes back on eBay for sale. For local pickup only. Any cost of moving this car from this property is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Balance to be paid when the car is picked up. The car has to be moved within 7 days. Serious bidders only. Good luck. |

Enterprise customer billed $47k for Mustang stolen from rental lot
Sun, 05 Jan 2014A weekend rental of a Ford Mustang GT Convertible sounds like a nice, relaxing way to burn some gas, but one Nova Scotia woman's two-day rental is turning into a months-long headache. In early October, Kristen Cockerill picked up the Mustang from Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and she returned it the following day as stipulated by the rental contract. Unfortunately, she dropped the car off on a Sunday - a day on which the particular Enterprise office is closed - and the car ended up being stolen overnight.
Now, two months later, CBC reports that Cockerill received a bill from Enterprise for the full replacement of the car totaling $47,271 (a base 2014 Mustang GT Convertible currently costs $40,349 in Canada). As it turns out, the fine print in the contract says that the renter is responsible for cars dropped off after hours until it can be inspected the next business day - this is also reflected on the key drop seen in the news report video, which states "vehicles returned after hours are the responsibility of the renter until inspected on the next business day."
It's not clear how much, if any, of that amount Cockerhill will be responsible for once her insurance company gets involved, but if the insurance company refuses to pay, Enterprise will bill the amount to the credit card she provided during her rental. While this ordeal is far over for Cockerhill, it's a good reminder for the rest of us to always read the fine print.
Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla details factory expansion; Ford and SunPower raise money for Sierra Club
Thu, Nov 20 2014Tesla has revealed the details of the upgrade of its Fremont, CA factory. One major change is the addition of a dedicated production space for the dual-motor P85D version of the Model S. Robots will be doing the battery installation on the Model S to save some time, and new export docks allow Tesla to get the cars out the door and on the way to their new owners more quickly. The new robots that move the cars around the factory have been named after X-Men characters, which makes our inner geeks smile. Check out the factory upgrade in the time-lapse video below and read more at Teslarati or at the Tesla Motors Blog. A program in Beijing for privileged registrations for EVs hasn't had much success. Of the 1,424 lottery winners, only about 30 percent went on to register an electric car despite a two-month extension of the deadline to do so. Buyers are likely discouraged by the lack of charging infrastructure, which the city hopes to ameliorate with the addition of 1,000 new charging stations by the end of the year, and by requiring new and renovated developments to set aside parking specifically for EV charging. Read more at Green Car Reports. The UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies suggests that laws designed to protect dealers and consumers are stymieing the adoption of EVs. Laws like the ones certain states have in place that block or otherwise restrict Tesla's direct-to-consumer business model are not helpful for companies that want to introduce new products to the market. They prevent companies from passing on savings to customers for whom they would likely make the difference in a purchasing decision. One possible solution would be to allow exemptions to certain selling restrictions for a certain number of vehicles sold. "This could give automakers the degree of control needed to work out kinks with early customers, develop scalable processes for supporting PEVs, and ensure that effective dealer performance standards are in place before handing the reins over to wholly independent retailers," according to UC Davis ITS.

The main purpose of the program is to move toward eco-friendlier carmaking at each of its plants worldwide.
