I’ll be right up front about this listing; Sadly this “Grocery Getter” probably isn’t worth much for anything other than a parts car. It s a complete 1959 Ford Country Sedan that was converted into a “Surf Wagon” back in the 70’s and then parked under a pine tree closed up tight where it sat untouched for over 30 plus years. The floor pans are rotted through. the Interior has allot of condensation rust from being sealed up, upholstery is trash. Well except maybe the back seat which is still wrapped in a dealer installed plastic cover. You can pretty much tell the overall abused/neglected condition of this poor old “Long Roof” in the pics, which are current.
I haven’t tried to start it (332 V8, w/automatic), the tires hold air for about five minutes, no brakes. I bought this station wagon for the 9inch rear end which I had rebuilt and exchanged it with the overhauled 8 inch out of my 56 Fairlane resto rod. This wagon has a good 56 Ford sedan rear end under it currently, other than that it hasn’t been touched in 30 plus years.
I don’t want to invest allot of time answering questions about this car. I’m also not interested in parting it out. No B.S., if it doesn’t sell I’ll have it picked up for scrap. However if you are seriously interested and in need of a parts car, I’ll do my best to help with any questions or take specific pictures as I’d hate to see this poor ‘ol wagon crushed. Yes, I have the title, but I won’t surrender it until you physically remove the car, as I don’t want the car abandon here and me without a title to have it hauled off. And really, it’s probably not worth fetching unless your within a few hundred miles of Redmond Oregon, it will have to be picked up on site and wenched onto your trailer. In it’s current shape it can’t really be moved towed anyplace for shipment. 10 percent deposit withing 48 hours, balance due when car is picked up within 30 days of end of auction (Cash or Cashier check)

First Ford Mustang prototype shots caught by legendary spy shooter Jim Dunne
Fri, 12 Apr 2013You know how people refer to someone as having "been around the block" to mean they're very experienced? Well, when it comes to automotive spy photography, Jim Dunne actually laid down the concrete slabs of the block's sidewalk. The unforgettable Dunne more or less invented the car spy game - a fact he cemented by writing book called Car Spy - and has been delivering spy shots and reporting on the industry for some 45 years now. (He also once employed this writer as his impromptu personal chauffer on a Volkswagen trip in Germany, while he slept, but that's a story for a different time.)
In any event, Dunne must be on a mission to prove that "elder statesman" doesn't also mean "washed up" as it is his shots of the upcoming new 2014 Ford Mustang that we've been handed by our friends at KGP Photography.
Mr. Dunne has likely spent the last few years obtaining powerful telescopic lenses, as the Ford in question has clearly been photographed from some distance. Nevertheless, what you see here is visual evidence that the sixth-generation Mustang has moved beyond the mule stage, and is now testing in proper prototype form. Sources indicate that there are production-spec body panels under that baggy canvass dress; but the slightly less bulky silhouette of the new car can be just made out. While the car's bumpers have been removed to obfuscate things, we can tell by way of the camo's apertures that the car's taillights have moved upwards and towards the lip of the tail. A fender vent appears to be visible, too, just behind the front wheel.
Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350
Tue, 17 Dec 2013During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.
