You are bidding on one of the early "sport cars" made by Ford. This is a sharp car but is not by any means a number one show car. We have had it for several years but drove it very little. It has a rebuilt motor that runs good. We are unable to provide the mileage but since the rebuild it has not been driven very many miles. It also has a new exhaust system, rechromed bumpers, new grill, and new rear fenders. The inside has been completely redone with a new head liner, new seat covers, curtains, and floor mats. The hardtop with Victoria windows has been completely redone and the car has had a paint job. It has 5 new white side wall bias tires and a new master cylinder. . Prior to our ownership there had been four attempts to restore (preserve) this historic model. So as I mentioned it is not in perfect condition which if you look close you will find the flaws. Fixable problems are: the radio does not work (which is not unusual in the older models), the windshield wipers do not work, there is no blower motor or duct, some of the knobs on the dash are missing. It does not come with a soft top only a removable hard top. I have tried to include everything I am aware of but keep in mind an issue could exist I do not know of.
I encourage anyone seriously interested to look at it prior to the end of the auction. This vehicle is being sold as is with no warranty either expressed, written or implied and the seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs.. No allowance or set aside will be made due to any incorrectiness, imperfection or defect. The description is for identification purposes only and is not to be construed as a warranty of any type. The buyer has the responsibility to inspect the vehicle and make the decision as to condtion and value.

GM, Ford, Honda winners in 'Car Wars' study as industry growth continues
Wed, May 11 2016General Motors' plans to aggressively refresh its product lineup will pay off in the next four years with strong market share and sales, according to an influential report released Tuesday. Ford, Honda, and FCA are all poised to show similar gains as the auto industry is expected to remain healthy through the rest of the decade. The Bank of America Merrill Lynch study, called Car Wars, analyzes automakers' future product plans for the next four model years. By 2020, 88 percent of GM's sales will come from newly launched products, which puts it slightly ahead of Ford's 86-percent estimate. Honda (85 percent) and FCA (84 percent) follow. The industry average is 81 percent. Toyota checks in just below the industry average at 79 percent, with Nissan trailing at 76 percent. Car Wars' premise is: automakers that continually launch new products are in a better position to grow sales and market share, while companies that roll out lightly updated models are vulnerable to shifting consumer tastes. Though Detroit and Honda grade out well in the study, many major automakers are clumped together, which means large market-share swings are less likely in the coming years. Bank of America Merrill Lynch predicts the industry will top out with 20 million sales in 2018 and then taper off, perhaps as much as 30 percent by 2026. Not surprisingly, trucks, sport utility vehicles and crossovers will be the key battlefield in the next few years, Car Wars says. FCA will launch a critical salvo in 2018 with a new Ram 1500, followed by new generations of the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra in 2019, and then Ford's F-150 for 2020, according to the study. Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy said the GM trucks could be pulled ahead even earlier to 2018, prompting Ford to respond. "This focus on crossovers and trucks is a great thing for the industry," Murphy said. Cars Wars looks at Korean (76 percent replacement rate) and European companies more vaguely (70 percent), but argues their slower product cadence and lineups with fewer trucks puts them in weaker positions than their competitors through 2020.

Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US
Thu, 18 Jul 2013YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.
