WARNING!!! PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE SUMMARY BEFORE YOU CONSIDER BIDDING ON THIS VEHICLE!!!!!!! I'm selling my 1992 Ford Crown Victoria LX I recently purchased due to it needing major engine and frame work that I have neither the time or money to invest in it and believe it should be parted out! The vehicle does run and drive but sometimes wants to stall out after a warm start and idles roughly, sometimes very roughly when warmed up. There also seems to be a strong smell of gasoline under the hood and under the vehicle plus there is some residual gasoline coming out of the tailpipe when the car is started cold. I've been told it could be bad fuel injectors and/or bad camshafts since the 92 models had issues with loose cam lobes. I have replaced the following items: spark plugs and wires, fuel filter, oil and filter change, MAF sensor, TPS sensor, IAC valve, air filter, and PCV valve, plus the AC was converted to R134A by the previous owner and does blow cold but takes a few minutes. I have stopped driving it due to this and am strongly recommending the vehicle be towed to its new home. Also the frame is severely rusted with a portion of the front frame behind the passenger front wheel rusted almost completely through. I've included pics of the rust underneath, which is extensive and very bad. That's why I am also recommending that the car be parted out instead of fixed because the rust is too extensive and very thick and the engine problems may be cost prohibitive. The air bag light and ABS light are both on due to some faults in their system. I disabled the airbag system (removed the wiring from the clockspring) and unplugged the front crash sensors. I also removed the ABS controller due to it being faulty. I STRONGLY DO NOT RECOMMEND DRIVING THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE SEVERE PROBLEMS WITH THE FRAME AND MOTOR! The winning bidder is responsible for picking up the vehicle or to have the vehicle shipped to their home. I have a low reserve price set also; message me on ebay if you would like to know the reserve price. Please read this summary BEFORE you bid and if there are any questions please by all means ask!!!

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
Next-gen Ford Taurus spotted in China
Fri, Jan 2 2015We're getting our first look at the next-generation Ford Taurus thanks to some spy shooters in China. While the camouflage and angle of the photo keep changes to the body a secret, there's no hiding the massive hexagonal, chrome grille up front. It lends a look very similar to the Fusion. Beyond the eye-grabbing grille, the headlights are reshaped, but are still quite squinty. There's also a new lower air dam that runs the width of the front with LEDs at the top corners. The hexagonal grille fits the design of the Fusion well, but this single image makes it look a little too big and disproportionate for the fullsize Ford sedan. Maybe the integration works better from a different angle, though. The next-gen Taurus is rumored debut for the 2016 model year and reportedly rides on a stretched and widened version of the Fusion's platform. Ford's big goal for the new model is allegedly to shed as many pounds from the scales as possible. The sedan also may get a nine-speed automatic to boost fuel economy. The engine range is still a mystery, but EcoBoost options are practically a sure thing, possibly even making up the whole model lineup.
