One very complete and intact 1962 Ford Fairlane 500 Barn Find. Original V8 car (engine does run), 3 speed transmission and just 2 doors. VIN 2R41L130185 confirms the 221 V8, built in San Jose, Corinthian White exterior and 500 trim. The car was rescued from storage (last registered in 1973), cleaned, engine fired and evaluated. 84,000 miles on the odometer. The small 221 V8 was only available in '62 and '63 adding to the unique originality of this find. Here is what I can tell you about the car.
The Good:
Very complete car, 2 door, engine runs good and does not smoke, 8" drop out style rear, all glass is excellent, title in hand, structurally solid (wheel wells, engine compartment, unibody rails, shock towers), rockers and door jambs in good shape, rolls freely, doors shut nicely, practically new tires, new ignition tumbler/key, new water pump, new fuel pump, seats are solid but need new covers, parking brake operational, transmission works without noise, car will drive and shift. Generator converted to a delco internally regulated alternator. Hear it run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ7BHUa5elg

(the rope has been replaced with a real V-belt)

The bad:
Floors & trunk have some soft spots, drivers lower quarter needs replacement, drivers door dented, passenger quarter has some damage/dented, needs master cylinder/brakes not working, door key missing, interior needs overhaul, trunk latch missing.
This is a great candidate for full restoration or with a few components could be driven. This car hasn't seen the road for 40 years so it would need a good looking over however its a great start. Additional pictures available upon request. Will need to be towed, selling as is.

Ford previews new C-Max ahead of upcoming debut

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Looking at a Ford Focus? These days you can get it as a five-door hatch, a four-door sedan, or... that's all. European buyers don't even get our sedan, but they do get a wagon. And while the three-door hatch, two-door coupe and two-door cabrio have long since ended production, buyers around the world can also get the company's larger C-Max. And now, like the Focus upon which it's based, Ford is preparing to roll out a new version.
The tall wagon (or small minivan, depending on your perspective) is being treated to what Ford says is "an extreme makeover." Details to accompany the teaser image above remain few and far between, but following the spy shots we recently posted, it looks destined for some of the same visual updates as Ford rolled out on the 2015 Focus, with "even more refinement, practicality and technology."
Like the Mercedes B-Class, which is only available Stateside as an EV, American buyers can only get the C-Max in electrified form, either as the C-Max Hybrid or C-Max Energi. Overseas buyers, however, will be able to choose from a range of powertrain options and two wheelbase lengths - the longer of which boasts seven seats and the Grand C-Max name. (Remember when Chrysler did the same with its minivans?) Both are set to debut on September 17, so watch this space. After that, we'll expect to see it on display at the Paris Motor Show.

Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.
Scroll down for more about Ford's planned job growth as well as how to go about applying for said openings.
