This is an awesome car! I had it listed once before and have dropped the reserve because I just purchased another car ((Jaguar) and I am out of garage room. The car has been nearly totally re-done. It has the following;
1. new front fenders and front bumper covers
2. new rear window motors
3. new interior
4. new professional black paint job
5. new boot
6. new hydraulics on convertible top
7. new hood
8. new trunk lid and lock
9. new custom wheels
10. rear quarter panels repaired
Also have the original rims and center covers which will go with the car. Also have two extra front fenders (vendor sent me two extras when I bought the first two) you can also have if you want.
I took the car to my mechanic when I first bought it and they checked it all over and could find no problems mechanically. I would be happy to give you their number and you can call and ask any questions.
I did not put a new top on because the one is nearly new that is on it. Exhaust is good, clutch and transmission are sound.
Issues:
I have never had the car in the rain, but would guess the windows would need to be adjusted if you were going to use as a daily driver. I am a car collector so I have never driven the car in the rain.
The rubber trim on driver's side window may need to be replaced.
Power seats not hooked up...they are manual.
Power gas lid deactivated.
Power trunk lid deactivated.
On the car fax you will see a minor front end accident. That is why I replaced the entire dog house. The only damage was on the passenger side front bumper cover, but I replaced both fenders as well as entire bumper cover so I knew everything was OK.
I am sure I have forgotten some of the improvements I have made. I will never get back the money I have invested, but I realize that. I bought this to fix up and restore for my oldest son and now he has decided when I kick off he would rather have the Jaguar.
The car will also be listed locally and I reserve the right to sell locally.
If you have questions or need more pictures you can contact me through Ebay.
Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
New car market raining on convertibles' parade
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Whether fitted with soft or hard folding lids, today's droptops are better than ever for year-round motoring. Advancements in power top mechanisms, sealing, aerodynamics, structural rigidity, rollover safety and creature comforts like heated and cooled seats mean that modern convertibles are more versatile and better to drive than ever before. Yet the segment's sales took a dive during the recession and haven't come back, Automotive News reports.
Part of that is because automakers are looking at today's more sensible buyers and simply not developing as many new models, and that lack of fresh iron is curbing sales. AN cites R.L. Polk data which notes that only about one percent of new vehicles registered in the US last year had tops that folded. Back in 2009, it was 1.4 percent, and it was 2 percent in 2006. All-in, some 151,636 convertibles were registered in 2012. That's more units more than were registered in each of the past three years, but the market has also grown as the economy has picked up speed, and as a percentage of new vehicles purchased, convertible sales are lagging.
Thus far in 2013, the Ford Mustang is America's top-selling convertible, with 6,421 units registered through the end of April, followed by its rival, the Chevrolet Camaro, at 4,751 units. The Volkswagen Beetle isn't far behind, with 4,305, but from that point, it's a steep drop off to the fourth-place Mercedes-Benz SL-Class and its 2,380 sales.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
