1957 Ford Custom 300 Sedan Hot Rat Rod Bomb California Kustom No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars
Sacramento, California, United States
You are looking at a real California Custom Cruiser that the
whole family can enjoy! This 1957 Ford has the right "Kustom Kulture
Look" The body is straight and solid shot in Grey high fill primer, ready
for paint. It starts, drives and stops very well. It has a low mileage 292 cu in
Y-Block engine with a new 2 barrel Holley carburetor, great on gas. The “Three
on the Tree” Transmission shifts well. I have replaced the battery, coil, distributor cap, rotor, condenser, plugs wires, put an electric fuel pump on
it, all wiring has been either replaced or fixed, new starter solenoid, new 12 Volt
“One Wire alternator” conversion with custom brackets, put a cut off switch in
for the battery it's under the dash so it's hidden installed it because these
cars were easy to hot wire, radiator was removed flushed, new upper and lower
hoses, all new vacuum hoses, water pump was replaced. Purrs like a kitten, runs
like a cheetah, and stays cool like Fonzi. Originally sold in San Jose California and used as a Fed Service Car. It has all the holes in dash and room from where the CB radio and police lights were mounted. The holes in the roof were filled though so you can't see them from the outside. I also installed a custom bracket in the back seat for children car seats since there are no seat belts.

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014
They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.
Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data
Fri, 14 Feb 2014Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
