2009 Police Interceptor Sedan 4-Door, 4.6L 281Cu. In. V8 FLEX SOHC Naturally Aspirated, mileage: 91,660 miles

This vehicle is surplus property of the Village Of La Grange and MUST be sold according to Illinois law; it MUST be sold in an auction-type setting such as eBay.  There is NO Buy-It-Now option.  We will NOT accept any trades for this vehicle. The vehicle is being sold AS IS and with NO existing warranty; neither express nor implied.  All sales are FINAL and NO returns will be accepted and price adjustments given.  The vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder after the starting price has been satisfied.  There is NO reserve on this vehicle-the starting price is BOTTOM LINE what we will accept for this vehicle-DO NOT MAKE AN OFFER!

Again, this vehicle has 91,660 original miles.  The vehicle has no notable body damage or rust-just normal wear-n-tear scratches, dings, and dents-nothing major!  The vehicle has power locks, windows, mirrors, trunk release, power driver's seat lumbar/recline, power cut-off switch (push switch and remove ignition key and car will stay on, however, car cannot be placed in drive and stolen), rear defrost, dome light, interior lights, and spotlight ALL IN GOOD FUNCTIONING CONDITION.  The vehicle also has manual tilt steering wheel, power adjustable gas pedal, AM/FM stereo, and air conditioning all in good working order.  The vehicle is equipped with cruise control, however, we did not use it often, so we do not know if it works (probably works).  The vehicle has driver's seat and passenger-seat air bags.  Lastly, the vehicle's exterior lights, lamps, signals, wipers, defrost, etc. are all in working order.  There are NO illuminated warning lights on in the dash indicating any malfunctions with the vehicle.  Lastly, the vehicle's tires are in good condition (they were replaced 072013 and in good condition).

The vehicle shows normal wear-n-tear regarding scratches and dings, however, there are NO major imperfections in the vehicle's body.  The exterior of the roof has a couple of "plugs" from holes drilled in the roof for the light bar that was attached and removed.  The police de3cals were all removed from the exterior, however, glue is very slightly visible.  A good detailing should eliminate the glue from the decals left over.  The interior roof liner has a smaller hole cut in between the driver and passenger seat, which once housed a police camera system, now removed.  The rear removable seat (vinyl) is brand new, however dirty from being in storage-it will need to be wiped off.  The front seats are in good condition with no tearing, however, they will need to be cleaned.  The interior vinyl flooring is in good condition, however, again, will need a good cleaning.  The following reflects the service record on the vehicle for "more major items:"

Radiator replaced on 033111, A/C Condenser replaced on 041811, Blend Door Actuator & Motor Assembly replaced 050911, Cooling Fan Sender, Motor & Fan Assembly replaced 060711, Air Bag Jewel/Warning Lamp, Water Pump Assembly, and Intake Manifold/Thermostat replaced on 062411, Driver's Seat Belt Buckle Assembly replaced 112911, Manifold Intake, Gaskets, Thermostat, and Ignition Wire replaced 021712, Alternator replaced 032912, Tires, Left Inner Tie Rod Ends and Alignment completed 040912, Sway Bar Links replaced 052412, Front/Rear Brakes, Serp Belt, Right Outer Tie Rod, and Alignment completed 100212, Transmission Service/Flush completed 101812, Front Driver's Seat Rebuilt 112912, Trans Assembly, A/C Condenser replaced 042213, Blower Resistor, Air Bag Jewel/Lamp/Breaker, and Instrument Cluster replaced 051313, 4 Tires replaced on 072013, A/C Compressor, Accumulator and A/C Recharge completed 100113, Vehicle Involved In Minor Accident on 030414 (Front Passenger-Side Bumper/Headlight).  All Repairs Completed To The Amount Of $1,300.00.  On 040114, the vehicle was at the dealer, at which time an electrical issue under the dash was repaired which was "blowing" fuses.  The vehicle currently has an oil filter adaptor leak in which the dealer charges approx. $300.00-this repair was NOT made.  The vehicle will eventually need brakes replaced-fine for now though.  Lastly, we were notified this year of a safety recall on the vehicle for the steering column shaft, which we have not repaired.  The paperwork will go to the winning bidder and the repair at the dealership is free.

DISCLAIMER:  The vehicle, again, is surplus property of the Village Of La Grange and MUST be sold according to Illinois law; it MUST be sold in an auction-type setting such as eBay.  There is NO Buy-It-Now option.  We will NOT accept any trades for this vehicle.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.

Is that the Ford GT Le Mans racer in the background of this Forza video?

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Shortly after the reveal of the new Ford GT in Detroit a couple of weeks ago, Microsoft announced that it was putting the new American supercar on the cover of the upcoming sixth installment of the Forza Motorsport video game series. Now it has put out a video of the process of digitizing Dearborn's latest. Whether you're into Detroit steel (or carbon fiber and aluminum in this case), exotic supercars or video games, the video is worth a watch in and of itself. But our eyes were focused on something else. In the background of one shot (around the 1:49 mark) you can see a design board with renderings of what looks to be the rumored racing version of the GT – complete with reshaped air intakes, deeper side sills, a bigger rear wing and a central rear fin like you'd find on the latest LMP1 racing prototypes. It wouldn't be the first time we've caught wind of the prospect of the Blue Oval's new supercar going racing. We first heard of the plans last October, further reinforced in December with reports of the new GT coming to Detroit. And as we reported just a couple of weeks ago following the supercar's reveal, a return to Le Mans could be in the cards – which would be fortuitous timing, since next year will mark the 50th anniversary of the original GT40 scoring its landmark 1-2-3 finish in the 24-hour race.

Is this the 2017 Ford F-250 and its all-new aluminum body?

Thu, Mar 12 2015

We don't have much to go on, but our friends at Jalopnik have uncovered a completely undoctored photo (used with permission) of what appears to be the 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty. There's no indication of what's under the boxy new sheetmetal – our bet, like that of Jalopnik, is that the 6.2-liter gasoline-powered V8 will join the latest torque-monster of a 6.7-liter PowerStroke V8 – but we're still left with lots of time to work out the details. For now, we see the same kind of upright and in-your-face styling that we've come to expect from the Ford Super Duty, including more chrome than a '60s Cadillac up front and huge headlight clusters that cut deeply into the side bodywork. We also note plenty of glass making up the large greenhouse, which should be a boon for visibility. Of course, the big news is the actual metal that the body is stamped from. We're expecting to see lots of aluminum, with the heavy-duty pickup following the smaller, lighter-duty F-150 into the lightweight realm for increased fuel savings and greater pulling and hauling capabilities. Stay tuned for more. Related Video: News Source: JalopnikImage Credit: Jalopnik Ford Truck Future Vehicles Off-Road Vehicles ford f-250 autoblog black
