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.

2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]

Sat, 28 Jun 2014

When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."

This unique '64 Mustang was Edsel Ford II's first car

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

You probably had the same dream when you were a teenager. Your sixteenth birthday is coming up, or Christmas, or maybe both, and all you want is a muscle car to call your own. That dream has come true for some, and one of them was none other than Edsel Ford II.
Henry Ford's great grandson turned 16 on December 27, 1964 - two days after Christmas and eight months after the original Mustang went on sale. And that's just what was waiting for him in the driveway, courtesy of his father (and reigning chief executive) Henry Ford II.
The specially-prepared pony car had a pearlescent cream paintjob with narrow blue racing stripes, functional hood scoop, chrome trim, Euro-spec fender-mounted mirrors, a blue leather and aluminum interior, a monogrammed fuel cap... and a 289-cubic-inch V8 under the hood.

2013 Ford F-150 Limited

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.
