Runs and drives. It has an exhaust leak, it's ugly, there's a crack in the windshield and some rust, but it runs and drives. It has gotten me from a to b for a few months (since I bought it), now it's time to pass on this sweet machine to someone else. These GTs are actually pretty tough to find. They get decent gas mileage. Four cylinder engine and five speed manual transmission. I would always recommend coming to look at the car for yourself (bring your mechanic if you'd like) before putting in a bid. The great thing about this escort is that it's cheap. I've driven it as long as 3 hours over this summer. Apart from getting a little overheated in heavy traffic, she's done awesome. (I added some extra water to the resevoir and haven't had any problems with that since, but that could be because the weather has gotten cooler). The heat blows hot and so does the a/c. Well it's not actually hot, but I wouldn't call it cold either. Cruise control works. Any questions, contact me through email. Thanks and happy bidding! The odometer is only five digits on this car so it says something like 45,000. That doesn't seem too likely to me... could be 145k, could be 945k... there's no way to verify.

P.s. The car is also for sale locally pretty cheap, so get your bids in while you can. Reserve is well below buy it now price.

Project Ugly Horse: Part V

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The 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.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
