Vehicle Description

         

We purchased this Ford Explorer Limited from an insurance company.  The vehicle was sold after sustaining fresh water damage.  It appears that the previous owner drove through standing water which in turn was sucked into the engine hydro locking it.  We replaced the engine with one out of a 2013 Ford Edge that had 3283 miles on it.  The engine swap went smooth with no other issues.  This Explorer now runs and drives excellent with no issues found in the engine, transmission, suspension, cooling and/or electrical.  The interior of the vehicle was dry when it arrived and there are no must odors.  There are no warning light illuminated on the dash.  There are a few minor dents that are visible in the photos.  For questions or to set up a time to test drive this Explorer please call our office M-F 8:30-5:00 at 248-446-8289.

       
       

Disclosure Agreement

Every vehicle we sell is subject to a $135 buyers fee.  Michigan residents must pay 6% sales tax and a $15 title fee.  License plate fees will vary.  We accept cashiers checks, bank wire transfers, cash, Paypal and credit cards (with applicable fees).
We do require a $200.00 deposit payable through paypal within 24 hours if you are the successful high bidder.  We require full payment within 7 days of the auction end.  We do ship vehicles through-out the continental US.  Please call us or send an email with your zip code for a quote.  

       

About The Warranty

This Power train warranty comes at no charge and covers the power train for 90 days or 4000 miles.  All warranty work must be performed at our dealership in Brighton, MI.  For out of State customers should something major occur we are more than happy to ship parts do you but we do not cover labor charges that our not our own.

       

About The Title

This vehicle has been inspected by a licensed Michigan State police officer and issued a rebuilt salvage title that can be registered and plated.  Michigan rebuilt salvage titles are processed just like a clear title in most states.  It can usually be transferred and plated to any buyer in any state or country with no further inspections.  Please check your local state regulations for confirmation.

Buyers enjoy huge savings on rebuilt and salvage titled vehicles.  If you plan on driving this vehicle a long time, not immediately reselling it, you will certainly save many thousand of dollars over a clear title vehicle.  Please remember you drive the vehicle NOT THE TITLE.  I recently heard a Car-Fax commercial stating the amount of salvage vehicle on the road has doubled.  I guess more folks are choosing to enjoy the savings available!

       

Drivability Details

This vehicle has been test driven and is found to be in excellent operating condition.  The wheel alignment is correct, the tires are balanced, the brake pads and rotors have no issues.  There were no noted issues with the transmission or engine.

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype

Wed, 08 May 2013

Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.

2015 Ford Transit

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

As a segment, fullsize vans are stealth-fighter invisible on most consumers' radar. Visit a dealership for any of the four brands that offer them and you'll be lucky to find even one on display. These are commercial vehicles primarily, even more so than pickup trucks. Vans are the shuttles for plumbers, caterers, carpenters, concrete layers, masons, electricians, florists and flooring, and a huge part of this country's productivity is accomplished using them. At the moment, Ford is the 800-pound gorilla in that room - fully 41 percent of commercial vehicles wear a Blue Oval. So when Ford announced three years ago it would be ditching its commercial bread-and-butter E-Series, it meant the Transit that would be replacing the Econoline had huge, 53-year-old shoes to fill.
We were still a bit nostalgic about Econoline vans going away until going directly from the Transit first drive in Kansas City to an E-350 airport shuttle. Climb up through the Econoline's tiny double doors and bang your head on the opening, crouch all the way to your seat then enjoy a loud, rattle-prone, creaky, harsh ride on beam-hard seats while struggling to see out the low windows. This is an experience nearly every traveler has had. By comparison, the Transits we'd just spent two days with were every bit of the four decades better they needed to be. It cannot be understated just how much better the Transit is in every single way. The load floor is barely more than knee high. There's a huge side door, and hitting your head on a door opening is nearly impossible. Stand up all the way if you're under six-foot, six-inches - no more half-hunching down the aisle. There are windows actually designed to be looked out of. The ride is buttery smooth, no booming vibration from un-restrained metal panels and no squeaks. Conversations can be held at normal levels rather than yelling over the roar of an ancient V8. The seats are comfortable. The AC is cold. There are cupholders.
Enough anecdote-laying, what's in a Transit? We're talking about a very fullsized unibody van that's enjoyed a 49-year history in Ye Olde Europe. This latest iteration is part of the "One Ford" initiative, so it was designed as a global offering from the get-go, eschewing the body-on-frame construction the E-Series has used since 1975. Instead, the Transit integrates a rigid ladder frame into an overall frame construction made of high-strength cold-rolled and boron steel. The suspension is a simple but well-tuned Macpherson strut array up front with a rear solid axle and leaf springs.
