Windham, Maine, United States

Up for auction is my 1963 Ford Convertible with the optional roadster tonneau cover (included).  I bought this 5 years ago and restored it to its present very good condition.  It was redone to its original Corinthian white exterior and original red vinyl interior, ( 76A-M-55-19M-53).  The tires on the car are 90% tread and 2 new tires are included.  The car is registered, insured and is driven weekly.  It has a new, professionally installed vinyl top.  All glass is very good.  New aluminum door and dash panels.  Car does not have A/C but there is an A/C vent in dash.  All gauges, except clock are working.  New vinyl upholstery.  Rear spats are included but need to be painted.  The retractable top is working beautifully (some relays and hydraulic cylinders replaced).  Front and rear bumpers are original and in good condition.  The rear chrome light surrounds have been rechromed.  All the electrics work.  Windows and seats are manual.  Downside...the transmission needs to be adjusted, as it sometimes snaps out of park into reverse.  This is why I always park it in neutral and apply foot brake.  Also,( as shown in photo) there is a small dent in left rear fender measuring 4 inches in diameter.  As a plus, I was told, when I bought it, that the engine rings and bearings were done a few years previously.  Car has great power and is a real "eye catcher" with its red and white color combo.  Sorry to see it go but other projects are waiting.  Buyer is responsible for shipping or local pick-up.  Requires $1000.00 pay pal deposit within 48 hours of sale.  Being sold as is/ where is.  Any questions?  Call Chuck at 207-653-9026

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.

Riding along in Ford's bonkers Fiesta ST Global RallyCross car [w/video]

Wed, 28 Aug 2013



The Mountune-worked Fiesta ST GRC does 0-to-60 mph in 1.9 seconds.
On any given day, and every single weekend, there's at least one parking in the country invaded by manufacturer and team trucks. The be-chromed beasts and their 53-foot trailers are slotted into rows, men and women decorate the lot with orange cones to mark the invisible tracery of a temporary track, cars get unloaded, crews fret over them. The ritual can be as beautiful as the sunrise to those with enthusiast hearts, but it's just as common.

Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.
