This is a 1986 Ford Escort Diesel 5-speed. It is rare in that it is a diesel and there were not many of these sold here in the U.S. I think this is about as clean of a car as you will find for the year and model. I purchased this car with about 34,XXX miles on it from a fellow who had purchased it from an elderly woman who had had it in her garage for years and had barely driven it. As far as I can tell these are the original miles. I ran a carfax and there is nothing to suggest otherwise. I have had a little over $2,500 worth of work done since I purchased it. Mostly cleaning everything up and replacing things that needed to be replaced from sitting. We are selling because we are looking for a small truck and do not have a need for this car anymore.
The Good: The car runs great and has been consistently getting 45-50 mpg. It is very clean. Interior is great. All of the electronics work. I have done maintenance to get it up to speed. Low miles. No Rust. I wouldn't hesitate to drive the car across the country.
The Bad: It does have a crack in the dash above the steering wheel. It does leak a small amount of oil which I believe is coming from the oil pan seal. It leaked/burned less than half a quart in 3,000 miles and it has a 7.2 quart oil capacity. A/C needs to be recharged.
You can Check out the video I made on YouTube here: http://youtu.be/59yLvpuEROc
Here is a list of things that have been done in the past 6 months. I have receipts for all the work that has been done. I also have the original owners guide along with the supplemental guide for the 2.0 liter escort diesel.
- Diesel fuel pump removed and rebuilt (little over $500)
- Fuel Filter Replaced
- New Starter
- 2 front tires are new with about 3,000 miles on them, rear tires have about 65% tread left
- Water pump replaced
- timing belt replaced
- camshaft oil seal and crank oil seal replaced
- Brake fluid bled and replaced
- Tie rod replaced on front right
- front and rear suspension new
- Oil pressure sender replaced
- expansion block/orifice tube replaced
- coolant temperature sensor/switch for idle kicker replaced
- cleaned brakes
- glow plugs replaced
- New Brake master cylinder
Please let me know if you have any questions. Again, I have posted a youtube video that can be seen at the following link:

Watch live as Mark Fields is officially named Ford's next CEO
Thu, 01 May 2014We've heard rumblings of a changing of the guard at Ford, and this live stream from The Blue Oval itself is set to confirm the rumors: Alan Mulally will be succeeded by the automaker's current Chief Operating Officer, Mark Fields.
Mulally, who is 68 years old, has served at the head of Ford for eight years, and his official retirement date will be July 1st, 2014. Fields, who is 53 this year, has been with Ford for 25 years and has been groomed to take the helm from Mulally for the last several of those years.
There's an official press release that you can read, but if you're more of a visual person, you're welcome to watch the live video feed of the announcement down below.
Project Ugly Horse: Part V
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The Slippery Slope
I've had a healthy appreciation for cars that stop since one truly unfortunate incident with a runaway 1971 Lincoln Continental.
It's funny how quickly a party can turn from, "We're all having blast" to "What happened to the front of the house, and how many stitches do you think this is going to take?" Standing in a Mustang salvage shop in Kodak, Tennessee, I couldn't help but feel I had strayed into the latter territory with Ugly Horse. There was a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 plucked from a rear-ended Cobra sitting off to my left. The shelves were lined with second-hand Roush and SVT components galore, but I couldn't stop staring at a set of rotors with the approximate diameter of my chest.
2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*
Mon, 28 Oct 2013When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).
