How would you like to drive around in a car that will get stares and “Thumbs Up” from all ages? Do you like get a real bargain? Maybe even a steal.
Well here is your chance. 58 years old and still going strong. This vehicle was given to me by my father prior to his passing in 2008. He purchased the vehicle from a local collector in 2003. It always won a trophy when we entered it into a local care show in the Richmond VA area. Why am I selling it? Good question. This is a wonderful car, but not what I ultimately want. My father had 3 antique cars and this is the one he gave me. I presently don’t have the time to drive it as much as I would like. Doesn’t do anyone any good just sitting in a garage. NOTE: I am not interested in a vehicle trade. What I know about the vehicle… · Partially restored (75-80%) in early 2000 by a local collector. · Garage kept · Interior o Carpet shows normal wear, must not have been included in the restoration. o Seats are clean, no rips or tears. · Exterior o Clean paint job o Normal paint nicks from usage · Engine/Transmission o V8: Not sure if it is a 292 or 312 o Runs great o Will occasionally come out of second gear if not under power. But how often will you stay in Second. o Three-speed on the floor. · Overall o Considered a “30 Footer”. o Will chirp the tires in all three gears. o Hard top convertible. o Continental kit. o Fender Skirts o Speedometer is not hooked up. o Mileage shows mostly Zeros. Not sure of actual mileage. According to NADAGuides, this vehicle price range is: Low Retail: $35,000 Mid Retail: $52,000 Even though it has a few minor issues, in my opinion the car easily exceeds the guidelines of a Low Retail car. If you want more pictures or specific details, please do not hesitate to post a question. I will answer your question as soon as possible and to the best of my ability.

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president
Mon, 15 Sep 2014Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."
Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief
Thu, 29 May 2014The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
