Your bidding on a 1999 Ford Taurus I am the original owner, purchased the car in Sept. 1998, The left driver door, left front fender, and hood was replaced and paint matched, also it has new front roters, pads, starter, alternator,heads, fuel injectors,tie rod ends,upper and lower ball joints, front brake lines, last summer new fuel pump and rear shocks. The motor only was replaced this past summer it's from a 1986 Mercury Sable same size engine 3.0L V6 it has about 155000 on it and does not smoke. Interior is in mint condition never smoked in and we don't have any children. There are only a few rust spot and I had this car undercoated when I bought it. Everything on this car is original, but the motor only, the car has 193000 miles on it, it still gets 24.5 miles to the gallon which is pretty good for a car this old. Now there are some issues with the car like the door lock don't work with the key so I don't lock it, the heat in the car very minimal clears window thats about it, and the transmission sticks briefly in 2nd once in a while. I believe this is a mechanics dream it's in good condition, still gets good gas miledge a good work car. A payment of 300.00 is due within 24 hours of auctions end. Buyer is responsible for delivery of the car and the balance of the money due before delivery, a seperate invoice will be sent for the balance. Please if you have no car knowledge don't bid on this car. I beleive this a good work car or car to flip.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
