My 1st impression

Offenhauser Three Deuce Holley 94 Carb..............292 Wide Block ...............................
Needs new carpeting...............all stainless and lots of it in excellent shape.......... paint in good condition - some rust at door bottom (see photo).........most chrome/ bumpers have some pitting- could be rechromed to take this vehicle to the next level.......interior/ seats in good shape/ same owner for last 25 years / vehicle has been kept indoors -not exposed to harsh rain, snow and sun of the Northeast .

Note:  As mentioned above, the previous auction ended after only 1 day due to technical problems with Ebay site loading additional pictures for me. At Ebay's suggestion, I closed out listing and relisted yesterday-sorry for inconvenience. In first 24 hours of original auction though, car had over 1300 hits. Amazing! 

Any additional info. call Tom  @   302-571-0562
I am listing this car for my neighbor Marty (owner), who is not internet savy. I am helping him clean up car and getting it ready for a new home as we speak. If you are really serious about purchasing this car, call me and I will give you Marty's (owner) private number. Don't waste his time though, he's a no nonsense older fella.

THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS WITH NO WARRANTY - EXPRESSED, WRITTEN OR IMPLIED.

Subcompact sales slump, yet again

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
