I have owned my SVO since 1989 when it had 29K miles. I have always kept it garaged and never abused the SVO or drove it in bad weather.  This SVO is tight, has good power, handles well and looks great. 
Here's a detailed list of pros and cons: 
 
PROS
Excellent mechanical condition, body and interior
Never hit - all original sheetmetal and glass
Everything works except a/c - It is complete but needs to be serviced
Car was fully repainted in 1998 and paint is still excellent. No door dings or dents
I replaced the valve stem seals in the past 2-3K miles. Burns no oil-excellent compression
I remoted the TFI module from distributor to fender apron
Original seats were replaced by me with a set I purchased from a low mileage totalled SVO
I replaced the interior carpet and still have replacement hatch area carpet in box
New SSBC rotors, pads and rebuilt calipers all around
New Kumho tires
Clutch was replaced at 29K and still works perfectly - I have always babied this car
Original rag joint replaced with Flaming River steering shaft
OEM replacement rear exhaust pipe. Current exhaust is fine but twin chrome tips are rusting
Retained original parts I replaced such as temp control module, original Marchal fog lights, front parking light bezels and rag joint
Numerous spare parts included e.g. spare TFI module & wrench, plugs, cap/rotor, oil
New Marchal fog lights with two sets of covers
I have service and inspection paperwork dating back to 1988
Has factory sunroof, PW, PDL, premium sound system
CONS
A/C is complete but needs to be serviced
Small scuff marks on corners of passenger side bumpers front and rear (pulling in and out of garage) - if you look closely at photos you can see the marks
Two inch scratch on hatchback near passenger side upper wing
A few small paint chips on nose
Car has 1986 lower wing (working third brake light) replaced by previous owner
Headliner is not torn but is wrinkled over rear seats and needs to be reattached

Jerry Seinfeld doesn't love Sarah Jessica Parker's new Country Squire in latest CiCGC

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee has finally returned for its fourth season of combining Jerry Seinfeld, a miscellaneous celebrity and a cup of java. But rather than fondly remembering some older piece of automotive machinery, this time around, Seinfeld is utterly unable to keep his hatred of Sarah Jessica Parker's 1976 Ford LTD Country Squire from coming out to hilarious effect.
However, Parker has such a high level of infectious enthusiasm for her recently purchased Country Squire that she seems to win over Seinfeld by the end - at least a little bit. For most of their time together, the two of them drive around Manhattan and the suburbs waxing nostalgic about what things were like when these wagons were ubiquitous.
Since this is actually SJP's car, she and Seinfeld trade off driving duties, and the image above should give you some indication of Seinfeld's reaction to the Sex and the City star behind the wheel. It seems this '70s land yacht might be a little too much for her to handle in New York traffic. Regardless, she is absolutely in love with her Ford.

2015 Ford F-150 enters production

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.

The 11 best scenes from the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed

Tue, Jun 30 2015

Over the last three days, the Goodwood Estate has played home to the eponymous Festival of Speed. Thrown by the biggest gearhead in the British aristocracy – Charles Gordon-Lennox, the Earl of March and Kinrara – the Festival of Speed is essentially a tremendous, gasoline-fuelled party, complete with a very large lawn sculpture, that features the world's hottest, weirdest, fastest, and loudest race, production, and historic models. While there are quite literally dozens and dozens of videos from the event – not to mention the full-day replays (of which only day one is available, at present) – we've sifted through them to pluck away the very best. There's stuff from the official Goodwood YouTube channel, as well as several videos from automakers and other third-party channels, and it's all available below. 2015 Ford Mustang GT350R Looks Barely Controllable If you thought the highest-performance Ford Mustang would somehow get more tractable or civilized once it moved to an independent rear suspension, this video shows you have nothing to worry about. Watch as an unnamed driver wrestles the new Shelby GT350R and its flat-plane, 5.2-liter V8 up the hillclimb circuit. Even with the new suspension and sticky tires, this Mustang wants to go any direction but straight, especially following its launch. 2016 Ford Focus RS, Is Very Loud, Blue Ken Block makes his first appearance on our list. Before he steps into his Hoonicorn Mustang, though, the Gymkhana expert tackled the hill in the all-new Focus RS. The vicious bellow of the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder is the star of this commentary-free video, although the gorgeous Nitrous Blue paint job is a nice accompaniment, as well. 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn Runs Hill, Nearly Kills Lord March Mr. Block's two runs behind the wheel of the Hoonicorn were, unsurprisingly, very eventful. While one attempt goes off without a hitch, seeing the American rally driver slip and slide his way to the top of the hill while taking a short break for a donut, the other is slightly more dramatic. Block, along with Lord March in the passenger seat, carries a bit too aggressive an angle into a turn and nearly puts the NASCAR-powered Mustang into the hay bales. Check out the first video above, and the second one below. Kimi Raikkonen Makes Us Miss F1's V8 Era The latest Formula One cars have been maligned for the lackluster noise produced by the new 1.6-liter, turbocharged V6.
