This is "The Car" for you if you're looking for a ready to ride classic.This was the first year of the LTD as its own car. This one is equipped with every option for '66 except front discs, but they are power. It has power windows and power steering but best of all it has air conditioning THAT STILL WORKS WITH R12! Purchased in February of 1966 from Gwaltney Motors in Smithfield Virginia by a little old lady. Garage kept till the mid 70's when my friend's grandpa bought it. He drove it and maintained it till he was unable to drive. It spent the next 12 years under a carport where I found it.

   I pulled it out, got it running and went about making it a daily driver again. I found it to be in surprisingly good shape. It passed and has a current VA safety inspection.I have been driving it since June and the A/C kept me comfortable through the hottest Virginia days. It has been an attention getter and a downright pleasure to drive. I lowered it 1.5" and painted the wheels and added chrome lug nuts (I have the OEM hubcaps). I have replaced/repaired the following items; Rebuilt carb(original Holley 4150 4bbl), replaced belts and all water hoses including 11 feet of heater hose, fuel pump, power steering pressure hose, removed radiator and had pressure tested and repaired(had small leak), replaced battery and both cables, replaced alternator, installed radiator overflow bottle, replaced brake booster, master cylinder, all wheel cylinders, brake shoes, rubber hoses(drums were new from 12 yrs ago). Replaced tires with 4 new ones and a new spare tire also(has original bumper jack and lug wrench). Installed new front shocks. Replaced transmission modulator valve. Serviced rear differential and I have changed oil twice(for good measure). The radio stack and cup holder were added by me and are held in by only 3 screws(nothing's butchered). Oem radio does not work but I did not troubleshoot it, could be a simple fix. Doesn't smoke or burn oil.

  Car is virtually rust free.Floor pans and all lower fenders are free of rust and no evidence of any repairs. Has a little rust in lower corners of doors(no bondo). Car was repainted in the late 70's and had some dents repaired and some repairs around rear glass. Rear glass needs repair again because it leaks at corners onto package tray and ultimatly into the trunk(trunk is SOLID), hadn't been rained on in over 12 years. Right rear quarter had taken a hit below taillight and was buckled and folded over. A friend at a bodyshop pulled the rear bumper and quarter and it's ready for a final smoothing out. I fixed the right front fender and installed a new headlight bezel/trim piece. This fender had been bent and repaired before as evidenced by the body filler that I popped out when straightning the fender.

  Things that I know it needs are; Fuel gauge doesn't work(I used odometer all summer, gets 13.4 mpg), rear quarter glass have not gone down but do exhibit a current draw when switches are toggled so I feel they are just stuck. A/C, heat and defrost all work but slide control is out of sync with actual modes. Trans pan gasket leaks(tightened bolts,helped some). Front seat has been recovered and split again(OEM cover still in place, see pics) Cancun blanket not included. Needs a u-joint at transmission end of driveshaft, vibrates at 70 mph. I greased it but it has a little play in it. Trunk gasket needs replaced. Dash has a crack in center at speaker hole.

Blue Oval's new Cargo cab-over rig is largest "One Ford" initiative yet

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The imposing commercial truck above has a feature that might be surprising to most Autoblog readers - a Blue Oval emblem on the front. Here in North America, Ford simply doesn't play in the eighteen-wheeler sandbox, but that doesn't mean that the Dearborn-based automaker is absent in the heavy hauling space in other parts of the globe. In fact, Ford presently fields two completely different big rig ranges under the Cargo moniker - one a product of an Eastern Europe/Turkey joint venture, and another from Brazil. But that's about to start changing with the advent of this new cab-over model seen here.
Unveiled in São Paulo, Brazil, this new generation of Cargo is perhaps the largest physical embodiment of CEO Alan Mulally's "One Ford" global streamlining strategy. Instead of multiple models, company engineers have developed a new single truck that it says will better meet the needs of truckers in all markets. Designed to compete in what's known as the "extra heavy-duty segment" elsewhere in the world, this Cargo was developed jointly by Ford engineering teams in Brazil, Turkey and Europe.
Specifics remain hard to come by (read: unreleased), but Ford is promising an all-new engine enabling hauling capability of up to 56 tons while still returning excellent fuel economy. Ford's global Cargo lineup will henceforth consist of a dozen models, but Ford tells Autoblog has no plans to bring this hot and heavy-duty action to North America.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford Transit hybrid conversion, PlugShare updates app

Tue, May 5 2015

A new report quantifies China's growing vehicle scrapping industry. With major growth in vehicle ownership since 2000, China is expecting its first scrappage peak this year. In 2013, China's scrappage rate was four percent, around two to four percent below other developed countries. However, more and more organizations are being certified to dismantle and recycle vehicles. With 9 to 12 million vehicles reaching end of life in 2015, and 12 to 16 million by 2020, recycling and remanufacturing parts could be a significant industry in China - as much as $32 billion this year. Read more in the release from ReportBuyer. PlugShare has updated its mobile app with a new interface and features. The EV charger locator service's most important new feature is a trip planner, which shows charging stations within five miles of the specified route (that range is expected to become adjustable with future updates). Other new features include a local charging activity viewer, bookmarks, messaging, leaderboards, a customizable user profile, and new search options. Users can now specify specific plug types or charging networks in their search for charging options. Check out the rundown of the updated app at Green Car Reports. XL Hybrids has created a hybrid system for the Ford Transit. The conversion company has adapted its XL3 Hybrid Electric Drive System for Ford's popular van, allowing for better fuel economy and low-end torque. The system works with model year 2015 and 2016 cargo and passenger versions of the Ford Transit, powered by either the 3.7-liter or the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine, regardless of the wheelbase or roof height. It can improve fuel economy and CO2 emissions by about 20 percent. Vans with the XL3 system installed retain their factory warranty, and the hybrid system comes with a three-year, 75,000-mile warranty from XL Hybrids. Read more in the press release below. XL Hybrids Introduces the First Hybrid Electric Ford Transit Van for the North American Market The XL3 Hybrid Electric Drive System to be compatible with MY2015 and MY2016 Ford Transit cargo vans and passenger wagons BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--XL Hybrids, Inc., the leader in fleet electrification solutions for commercial and municipal fleets, today announced its XL3 Hybrid Electric Drive System has now been adapted for the Ford Transit van – the first hybrid electric Transit van for the North American market.
