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......

Ford recalling 390,000 cars over door latch woes

Fri, Apr 24 2015

Ford is recalling certain Fiesta, Fusion and Lincoln MKZ vehicles due to faulty door latches, marking the latest in what seems to be a recurring issue for the Blue Oval. This is the third door latch recall from Ford in 2015, following a 213,000-unit recall in March and a 205,000-unit recall in January. This one, however, is significantly larger. A total of 390,000 units are affected, including Fusions and MKZs from model years 2013 and 2014, as well as Fiestas from model years 2012 to 2014. A "broken pawl spring tab" is the culprit, potentially keeping doors from latching shut. According to Ford, even if the door does shut, it could come open again without warning. The affected Fiestas were built between February 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013 at the Cuautitlan, Mexico factory. The Fusion and MKZ siblings, meanwhile, were screwed together at Hermosillo Assembly in Mexico between July 1, 2012 to May 31, 2013. Ford is aware of three minor reports of door malfunctions. In two cases, the door bounced back open, quite literally hitting drivers on their way out. In the third case, a door swung open of its own accord while a driver was attempting to park, hitting another vehicle. Ford will notify owners, who will need to report into dealers to have all four latches replaced. Scroll down for the official press release. Related Video: APR 24, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD MOTOR COMPANY ISSUES SAFETY RECALL IN NORTH AMERICA FOR DOOR LATCH ISSUE ON FORD FIESTA AND FUSION, LINCOLN MKZ Ford Motor Company is issuing a safety recall for approximately 390,000 2012-2014 Ford Fiesta and 2013-2014 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ vehicles for a door latch issue. The door latch in these vehicles may experience a broken pawl spring tab, which typically results in a condition where the door will not latch. If a customer is then able to latch the door, there is potential the door may unlatch while driving, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is aware of two allegations of soreness resulting from an unlatched door bouncing back when the customer attempted to close it, and one accident allegation when an unlatched door swung open and struck an adjacent vehicle as the driver was pulling into a parking space. Affected vehicles include certain 2012-2014 Ford Fiesta vehicles built at Cuautitlan Assembly Plant, Feb.

SNL, Jim Carrey late to the Lincoln MKC ad spoof party

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

At this point, making fun of the Lincoln MKC ads starring Matthew McConaughey is getting pretty old, though apparently Lincoln loves it. The commercials have been airing for over a month, but Conan O'Brien, Ellen DeGeneres and even South Park have all taken their swipes at the spots with the smooth-talking actor monologuing about his new luxury crossover. Saturday Night Live might have finally killed the joke in its recent episode featuring Jim Carrey.
The problem certainly isn't that Carrey does a bad job in the spoofs, and he actually pulls off a pretty good McConaughey impression. They start out as pretty direct mimicry and slowly evolve into the absurd, including cracks at McConaughey's acting career and the way he rubs his thumb and finger together. Carrey certainly raises at least a chuckle at times, though.
However, the comedian's engaging performance can't take away from the fact that SNL has arriving to this mocking party pretty late in the game. The jokes just don't feel fresh anymore, so hopefully these ads put the final nails in the coffin for the riffs - at least until the next batch of Lincoln ads arrive.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.
