Great little classic. The engine is strong and the oldschool three on the tree column shift is a blast to drive. The car was given a once over about six months ago. It was given the usual points, plugs, and fluid maintainence but I also replaced all of the breaks and put a new gas tank in. Lights, wipers, horn ect are also all working. The locks all work HOWEVER I have an ignition key and a trunk key but no door key.  I will include the key blanks. I just never got around to having them cut. A modern stereo is installed in the glove box (so that the dash wouldn't lose it's original look) and pioneer speakers have been professionally installed.

I was originally planning to make this one of my daily drivers because of the great shape that it is in. Between work and many other projects, it has sat in my driveway waiting to be shown the love that it deserves. On the brightside, I was honest with myself about how busy I was and disconnected the battery and emptied the gas tank after parking it. So no rust or sediment in that new tank. And the most that you should have to do is replace (or possibly just jumpstart) the battery. And then you have yourself a classic that is sure to get noticed.

Not looking to overcharge. I got the car in good condition and at a good price and have put a little bit of money into improving it so I want to pass on a great deal to another lucky person. This is a great car and it will make somebody very happy. I'm just looking to have more room in my driveway and get back what I have invested. You won't be disappointed.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.

Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014



The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
