I have owned this car for over 12 years.  I have enjoyed driving it around town and even with some rust and a few dents, I get a few smiles and thumbs up.

History:  I purchased this car from a friend who owned it new (per her story, never confirmed).  It was an anniversary gift from her husband at that time.  They lived at the Air Force Base located just outside of Lompoc, CA.  She told me that car was purchased at the local Ford dealer in Lompoc.  I have the original owners manual but the persons name inside has been blacked out.  She drove the car to work every day until about 1991 when it was put in the garage for about 9-10 years.  I worked with the owner at that time and we made arrangements to view the car.  It had not been driven or started all that time.  We agreed on a price and with a change of gas, oil and battery, she started after a few spins.  The car was re painted by her son in High School but he didn't do the best in body work and some rust has come through after sitting on the coast at the Air Force Base.

I had the front end and rear end rebuilt.  It has a new radiator.  Tires are good.  Exhaust system is newer. Brake system was worked on right after I bought it.  The interior is not original but it looks great outside of needing new door panels.

The car comes with:  2 front fenders, 2 rear panels and a reclining front passenger seat from a parts car.   Rebuilt AM/Radio/8 Track player, additional skirts, hubcaps and lots of extra parts.  She starts and runs great.  I don't see any blue coming out when you are driving and/or starting it but she has a few leaks here and there.

I hate to see this car go.  It has been good to me and always makes me smile when I am driving around down but do to the loss of a job a while back, going without a job for a while, now having a job but need to move out of state, I think its time for her to move on to someone that can and wants to do more with her.

Hot sales have Detroit automakers shortening summer shutdowns

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Back in May, there was speculation that the Detroit Three automakers would maintain or perhaps even extend their traditional summer shutdowns, mostly due to a bitingly cold winter that saw below-freezing temperatures infiltrate the southernmost reaches of the US, putting a chill on auto sales. Now, though, the numbers are in, and thanks to some promising sales figures, it looks like some domestic line workers are going to be working clear through July, in some cases.
According to Automotive News, Ford has slashed its traditional two-week hiatus for factory workers in half at four of its plants, while both Chrysler and General Motors will keep factories running nonstop (two plants in Chrysler's case and a third of GM's factories).
This is, as we said, thanks to some positive numbers. Chief among those is the Seasonal Adjusted Annual Rate, which was at an eight-year high of 17 million units. Individual figures were less promising. GM, embroiled in its recall scandal, still saw a one-percent increase while Ford dropped six percent in year-over-year sales. Chrysler was the big winner, though, with a nine-percent jump in June.

Ford to add more than 2,000 jobs in Kansas City

Thu, 02 May 2013

Continued high demand for the Ford F-150, along with the addition of the all-new Transit series of commercial vehicles, has led Ford to announce that it will add over 2,000 jobs at its Kansas City Assembly Plant. At the time of the announcement, the plant boasts 2,450 hourly employees working on two shifts. All told, Ford will invest $1.1 billion in the Kansas City plant to expand truck production and begin producing the Transit series.
According to the automaker, fullsize truck sales are up 19 percent through April of 2013, leading to an additional 900 workers and a third shift of production for the F-150. Production of the Transit series will begin in the fourth quarter of this year, requiring an additional 1,100 workers. In addition, Ford estimates that a total of 18,000 jobs will be created by suppliers to its Kansas City plant to support the additional vehicle production.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.
