This wagon has the very rare and desirable factory bucket seat option with a floor shift console. It also has rare power windows. I have too many cars to have the time to enjoy this one. I put new points in the distributor and it fires right up, but it does need some ignition wiring worked out. I have video of it running... As the photos show, the front buckets need to be addressed and so does the headliner. The only thing I see it's missing is the clock in the dash and the antenna mast. As far as rust goes, it's really very solid with just two dime size wholes in the pass side floor and a little in the roof on the corners, that's all I could find. The quarter panels are all solid. It's a shame that both rear quarters have slight damage around the taillights. There is a small section of fiberglass woodgrain missing from the drivers side. This car has gotten a lot of interest and everyone loves the very desirable patena that this original paint shows. I'm also under the impression that the whole car is original inside and out including the motor. I found the car exactly as it sits, just cleaned and photographed. I did put four new tires on it as the others were shot. I would call this a barn find that I found in a field. Clean clear California title and bill of sale from previous owner. Chris 310-709-5561

2014 Ford Fiesta Titanium
Mon, 28 Oct 2013You might not be interested in owning a subcompact (B-segment) hatchback for $20,000. Let's be clear from the get go here: there are any number of reasonable arguments for staying away from the highest-content versions of these small cars. Ford's player in the B-segment arena is the newly updated 2014 Fiesta, and the Titanium trim represents the most luxurious instantiation of the model. We recently were loaned a Fiesta Titanium for a week, whose final sticker price hit $20,390, with navigation being the only standalone option added to the bottom line. By way of comparison, the most basic version of the all new, one-segment-up Mazda3 hatchback costs $19,740 with delivery and destination accounted for, and no options added on.
Hold on to that thought for a moment, we'll get back to it.
Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
