Orange, California, United States

This listing is for my 1970 Ford Country Sedan. It has the original numbers matching 390V8 with a C6 automatic transmission. This is an original California car, it does not have any rust and has not been wrecked! I have the CA title in my name, the license is current through January 2015, this car does NOT require a CA smog test. I bough this car from a friend of mine who owned a tow yard. In order to get the car re-registered we had to do a salvage sale, hence the salvage title. This has been my daily driver on and off over the past seven years. The engine and transmission were rebuilt at about 98,000 miles by the previous owner. All the work that has been done to the car since I have owned it has been done in the last four years and less than five thousand miles. The car is now, almost, completely done. Only the interior needs a little work and a good detail. The car was recently painted. The car still needs a little work to be complete. The front door panels are not as nice as I would like, the car needs a new headliner, some small interior trim and the rear side storage compartments need to be carpeted. Now on the positive side. The car has leather bucket seats, the front two are power. The rear two fold flat to increase load capacity. The power steering box is new, it also has a new power steering pump, new power steering hoses, a new Edelbrock 4BBl carburetor, a new Malory unilite distributor, new plug wires, new spark plugs, a new HP coil and new water pump. It has a new thermostat, the tires have less than five hundred miles on them, the heater and defroster system is a new. All the hoses and belts are new, it has a new aluminum cross flow radiator, new brakes, new front spindles, new front brake calipers, new tie rod ends, new idler arm, new upper and lower control arm bushings, new strut rod bushings and new brake hoses. The rear axle bearings and seals were replaced. It has a new NASCAR style dash board with all new gauges and switches, the instrument and dashboard wiring was all replaced along with new fuse panels and circuit breakers. The new dashboard and speedometer were installed at the same time as most of the other work was done. The car only has 2,402 mile on it since the dashboard and most of the other work was completed. The old speedometer had 129,464 mile on it . So the total mileage on the car is only 131,866! The carpet is new, it has a floor mounted shifter, the steering column was replaced and a new steering wheel. The paint is only about two month old, never even been waxed yet! This car is a great daily driver, it starts, runs and drives very good. I wouldn't hesitated to drive it on a long trip! wish I had the money and health to do the little things to finish this car. But I don't, so I have to sell it! I am selling my wagon as-is with NO RESERVE! The high bidder gets it, bid to win, this is a great driver! Thanks for looking, good luck bidding.

Ford recalls 591,177 vehicles in four separate campaigns
Wed, Apr 29 2015Ford is issuing recalls for a total of 591,177 vehicles worldwide, in four separate campaigns. The announcement comes just days after the discovery of door-latch problems in 390,000 of the automaker's cars. The largest of these new recalls covers 518,313 examples of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ from the 2013-2015 model years, plus the 2015 Edge. Of these, 487,301 of are in the US and 31,012 are in Canada. For vehicles in cold-weather areas, the bolts that hold the steering gear motor can corrode and fracture. If this happens, it could cause the power steering to fail, but manual control would be retained. There are no reported accidents or injuries from this problem. To fix things, dealers will replace the bolts and seal them. The next campaign covers 50,157 examples of the 2014 Focus, Edge, Escape, and Transit Connect, plus the Fiesta from 2014 and 2015. Of these, 45,505 are in the US, 4,618 in Canada, and 34 in Mexico. All of them exhibit a problem with the fuel pump where the nickel plating can cause the part to seize and the engine to stall, if this occurs. (All of which sounds like recent problems with Nissan and BMW models.) According to Ford, there is one allegation of an accident from this problem. Dealers will replace the fuel delivery module to fix the problem. Ford is also recalling 22,616 units of the 2015 Lincoln MKZ because when the headlights are on, the parking lamps are brighter than they are allowed to be. The light could affect the vision of other drivers. This campaign includes 21,435 of them in the US, 1,066 in Canada and 115 in Mexico. There are no accidents or injuries from the issue, but Ford is updating the software to dim the lights on these sedans. Finally, Ford has a safety campaign for 91 examples of the 2015 F-150 because an underbody heat shield might not be properly installed or not present at all, which can be a fire risk. There are no reports of any actual accidents or fires, though. The affected pickups will have the parts replaced or added, as necessary after a dealer inspection. To see the specific build dates for the models affected by each of these campaigns, you can read about them in the press release below.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
