First off.... I am not a dealer nor am I a flipper.. I'm just a car guy who does not know how to say no....My plans were to keep this car & do the five speed conversion. But I fell in love with a 73 Torino 2 door coup with a factory four speed...Need I say more????? Even though this car has low mileage I'm not going to scream & holler that its the greatest thing since sliced bread. I'll let the car & the pictures speak for them self...A lot of sellers would be screaming $15,000 $15,000 $ 15,000. I'm not even close to that. In fact my reserve is south of 10.
 
A gentleman from Madison NJ bought this car new & he kept it in a climate controlled garage. And from what I was told this was his baby & he rarely drove it. The car never saw snow nor did it see rain....Unfortunately he became ill & passed away in 2011. CANCER SUCKS!!!  At that time the car had 10,000 miles. He willed the car to his niece. She kept it in a garage for a year & was forced to park the car outside. Approximately one year. I found the car in the summer of 13 & at that time it had 15,000 miles. We worked out a deal & its been in a garage since.
 
Description....1-10
 
Body.....9     The body is in very good shape.. It has never been hit nor has it been painted. All the original tags are in place & the paint shines. There are no dents anywhere. There are a few rock chips here & there thanks to the idiots who run Sussex County NJ. The chrome is in very good condition. The 1/4 windows do have some pitting & some of the emblems show some wear from being outside but overall they are in great shape.
 
Glass...9.5
 
Wheels...Sorry not BBS.....I know it broke my heart also. The front two need to be reconditioned or replaced. The clear failed. The rear wheels are 9 & a 9.5
 
Tires ....Original....Yes original.. They are in very good shape but they are just starting to crack...Just a little......Around town no problem...Highway??????
 
Moon roof...Does not leak!! Works perfectly.
 
Interior...EXCELLENT...Dam near perfect!!!!
 
Radio...Needs to be reconditioned......But its the highly sought after Sony single cd player without the silver buttons.
 
Undercarriage...9   Shows some wear due to being outside...BUT ONLY SMALL AMOUNTS OF SURFACE RUST ON NON COATED PARTS.
 
Under the hood.. 8.5 Same issue as the undercarriage.
 
Transmission.... 10     First thing we did was drop the pan & change the fluid. It was pink so We figured it was done shortly before the owner passed. We adjusted the PSI to 32 but that was just too much like being at the drags. So we bumped it down to 30 PSI. It shifts nice & tight without too much bang. I never got around to swap out the TV connector. It still is in grat shape BUT THAT IS SOMETHING YOU MUST DO!!!
 
AC.  Ice cold.
 
Air suspension.....10... Works perfectly! The bags are in excellent shape. No dry rot, cracking, or leaks.
 
Mechanical 9.5
The drivers air bag (SRS) does not work. The clock spring needs to be replaced.
Thats it! Everything eles works.
 
What I have replaced.
 
Battery.
Water pump.
Serpentine belt.
Lower radiator hose.
Front Calibers & pads.
Passenger side lock actuator...Go figure.
Antenna...Double go figure
 
Overall this is a excellent car & only needs a little el bow grease. It is probably one of the tightest cars I have ever owned. Who ever buys this car will not be disappointed.
 
Any bidders that have a feedback of ten or less MUST contact me first or your bid will be cancelled!!
 
Good luck......

Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response

Fri, Jan 25 2019

Part of the beauty of children is that they can find worth in something adults might deem unworthy or overlook entirely. Five-year-old Patch Hurty didn't see garbage or a broken piece of a car when he spotted a Ford badge lying on the side of a road. He saw an artifact, a souvenir, a start to a collection he could only dream of. Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics tells the story of Patch and his quest to turn that one lost badge into a museum of manufacturer logos. According to the article, Hurty is a car fanatic through and through, even using car names as a way of learning to read. After finding the Ford badge near his Connecticut home, he and his mom put together a plan to reach out to dozens of automakers, confessing his love of things on four wheels. In each letter, Patch assembled a picture of himself standing next to one of the cars, and a penny to pay for whatever he hoped was sent his way. The response was unexpectedly and overwhelmingly positive. Of the more than 50 letters he sent out, including to obscure or defunct companies such as Bugatti, Suzuki, and Saturn, a majority responded with warm notes and some type of souvenir. Two of the coolest responses came from Lincoln and Bentley. Lincoln sent a sketch of a Continental (all car lovers enjoy drawing cars, right?), and Bentley sent a wheel center cap. How awesome is that? The story reminds us of something that can easily be lost in all of the negativity involved with the auto industry: Everybody is in this because of a common infatuation with automobiles. For more details on the souvenirs Patch received and accompanying photos, read the rest of the story.

Lincoln MKC prototype caught partially covered, reveals some changes

Tue, 14 May 2013

When Lincoln pulled the wraps off the MKC Concept at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year, we said that the very attractive concept was going to closely mirror the production vehicle. With few exceptions, a clad prototype recently caught running on public roads seems to substantiate our statement.
From what the pictures reveal, the disguised Lincoln MKC production mule and show concept seem to share the same waistline with identical sculpting over the wheels. The midsection of the two also appear to match with the same flare and styling. The lower rockers have been cleaned up a bit, mainly to be more practical in the real world (the deep chisels on the show car would have collected mud and snow).
Taking a look at the exposed front bumper, we see a very similar lower fascia complete wtih the metal skid plate on the chin. The window profile also seems to match the concept, though we're still unclear exactly how that C- and D-pillar section is going to look. Of course, and it always seems to be the case when concepts evolve into production vehicles, the MKC gains four normal door handles, standard-sized mirrors and a slightly smaller wheel/tire package. We expect the production version of the Lincoln MKC to debut later this year.

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too

Thu, 22 Nov 2012

The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
