1968 Ford Country Squire "Surf Wagon." Numbers matching car with 302, FMX transmission, and 3.25 limited slip 9 inch. 3 owner car with 74000+ original miles. I have this car titled in my name with 68372 miles. This is a SURVIVOR car. This car was bought new in Chicago, Illinois and before me and my wife bought it, it spent its last 25+ years in New Mexico. This is the ultimate cruiser. I added an Edelbrock intake and a Holley Carburator. The plugs, wires, hoses, belts, brakes, exhaust, radiator, shocks, gauges, and tires have all been replaced within 5000 miles. I would drive this car ANYWHERE. We took it to Denver in October to purchase the Surf Boards and did not have any problems. The spare tire has never been on the ground. The body is RUST FREE and super straight. The only not original panel is the hood which was replaced by the previous owner. The interior is amazing and the only problems are a small crack in the dash and a small rip in the front seat on the driver side. The hidden headlights work great and it runs like a top. I have all the original paper work for this car including the build sheet. I hate to sell it, but I want to redo my high school car and my wife says this is the only way! If you have less than 5 feedback, contact me before biding, or your bid will be cancelled. I reserve the right to end this auction early as I have the car for sale locally. If you have any questions, please call me @ 605-490-1950.

BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod
Thu, 20 Jun 2013Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
