1969 Ford Fairlane 428 Cobra Jet, Only 39k Miles !! on 2040-cars
Marengo, Illinois, United States
I am selling a true time capsule. This 1969 Ford Fairlane has only 39,000 original documented miles. Absolutely NO RUST ever on this car. It has the original numbers matching 428 Cobra Jet Motor with the factory Ram Air still intact and operational. It's the original 3 speed automatic C6 Trans, and runs perfectly. The interior is all original and in EXCELLENT condition. The original polyglass spare tire is still in the trunk. I have the factory build sheet, protecto plate, Marti Report, and a copy of the original title when purchased new. This car was purchased from the son of the original owner 6 years ago and has been pampered in a climate controlled garage since. The only components ever replaced on the car are the tires, a water pump and a carburetor. I still have the original water pump and carb. The car has been repainted once in the factory color. The paint and chrome are very smooth and shine like new. The interior is in EXCELLENT condition as well with no signs of wear, or sun fading. The under carriage of this car is as clean and rust free as the top. Entire car is VERY clean and in EXCELLENT condition. The car needs nothing at all.... If you are looking for an ALL Original, extremely low milage, clean honest car, this is the one. This car drives incredibly well, it's tight, with no squeaks or rattles, and drives as straight as an arrow. Every once in a great while you come accross a true collector car and this is one of those. Absolutely nothing to hide and no sales pitch needed, walk in the climate controlled garage and see for yourself. The car will sell itself and you will NOT be disappointed.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.
Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017
Wed, 13 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.
