Bellingham, Washington, United States

Thanks for looking at my auction up for bid tonight is a car I am selling for a friend...1964 Ford Fairlane 500 Sedan. Presently I am using the car for a daily driver and it runs great. This car has had an excellent start to restoration. The following is a list of items that have already been completed... Engine and transmission rebuilt New seats and dash done New exhaust system (dual exhaust) New voltage regulator New Battery New fuel pump - mechanical New fuel sending unit (although not entirely happy with how it sends the signal to the gas gauge on the dash The car had been painted but it is my daily driver and needs a good cleaning/polishing New plugs, wires, coil and distributor New master cylinder and brakes done all the way around (including wheel cylinders) Rebuilt carb Just replaced the brushes in the generator
I know I have spent way too much money as I have spent more than $3500 on the seats and dash alone. Now is the time for someone to carry on and finish the restoration. Unfortunately I am running out of money and don't want to see this wasted. The upholstery guy scratched the car on both sides (see pics) and then went out of business. Till it was used for a daily driver it was stored in a warehouse for more than 15 years. The body is pretty straight there is a dent in the back bumper and trim piece but as well there is a small dent in the front grill (see pics) Things I know for sure that I would do is replace the tires and the shocks and leaf springs...they had been replaced before but they are noisy right now and the leaf springs look like they have flattened out. I HAVE THE CLEAR TITLE SIGNED AND READY TO BE TRANSFERED TO THE NEXT OWNER I love driving this car...the heat works great the heater ducts have just been worked on to work better on Monday! The fan is in great condition. There is no rust through........there are a few spots of minor rust starting to bubble but not very big in size. It has a 260 cu inch engine that purrs like a kitten. Pump the gas once and turn key and starts perfectly. I noticed too that the pics do not show a air cleaner but I have a air cleaner that is now on the car (after market)
This car gets noticed every where I drive it.

Saleen previews new 302 Mustang
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The introduction of a new generation of a model like the Ford Mustang may be exciting enough in its own right for enthusiasts, but that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, because you know that Ford itself as well as numerous aftermarket tuners will soon follow up with even more desirable versions. And few Mustang tuners carry quite the same clout of Saleen.
Recently reunited after its previous split, Saleen is back on the map and hard at work on new aftermarket modifications for a wide array of muscle cars. We knew it would only be a matter of time before it would release a new 302 Mustang, and now it's sent out the first image to show us what to expect.
Details are scarce, but House that Steve Built says the 2015 Saleen 302 Mustang "is perfectly positioned as the next American exotic." And it should know, considering that it's the same outfit that produced the Saleen S7 that really was a true American exotic. From the teaser image above we can see that Saleen has given its Mustang a new front air dam, a very wide air scoop on the hood and of course Saleen's trademark slat grille.
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
