Gorgeous 1984 Crown Victoria Wagon 63k Mile Time Capsule! on 2040-cars
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Absolutely beautiful example of a car that is heading it's way to the collectors world! I purchased this 1984 Crown Victoria Wagon from its original owners. The car has always been garage kept, the body is rust free, the chrome shines with a gleam, and the paint shows no sun fade or clear coat loss. Currently at 63K miles and not missing a beat, the 5.0 Throttle Body Injected v8 runs like a top, the transmission shifts smoothly and the car will stop on a dime. It steers straight as an arrow down the highway, cruise control works fine with no issues. The interior is almost as nice as the day it left the factory, when the car was purchased new the owner did two things, they put blankets over the front and back seats, and they requested the rear seats to not be installed. (I have them and they are included, they appear "new" and never mounted. It has never been smoked in. All electronics function as they should, windows and door locks work without hesitation, the clock is accurate, the factory radio tunes in perfect with no static from the speakers. The two-way tailgate works as it should. The car had four brand new tires put on it before winter. The AC does work, but will be in need of a recharge, (Car is still running R12 and I couldn't bring myself to retro-fit it over) The gas gauge does not work, which according to the owners, stopped working in 1986. A NOS sending unit they purchased in 86' is included to solve this problem. There is a 2" scratch above the passenger rear taillight, and one tiny ding on the door pillar, that the owner swears Ford themselves did when the car was purchased off the lot. I have a clean and clear PA title for this beautiful machine, and it is inspected in PA until the end of next year. The car is for sale locally and I do reserve the right to end the auction early. I can be reached at 610-679-0311 with any questions. I am not looking for any trades.

Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]
Thu, 27 Mar 2014Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.
Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology
Tue, 20 Apr 2010In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
