Needs a new rubber lining kit for front and rear lights. Interior needs a kick panel on drivers side, latch repaired on center console and rearview mirror put back on (parts included). Nice int."

This is a great project car. It did not have the original engine in it when we bought it in 2006. We would have had more done to it if I hadn't become ill and had to quit work.  The electrical needs to be reconnected on the door switches and the headlights. I believe all wiring is present. Also comes with a Budge car cover. There are a couple of places where the paint has chipped off. Not the original paint job. And,

the rear panel behind the rear window is rusted, a new one comes with the car, but has not been installed yet.  The rust on the lower outer kick panel on the passenger side, should be easily repaired by rust remover and a little bondo.  The car was involved in an accident before we purchased it. The front grill and bumper had been badly damaged so we found a replacement in very good condition with headlights.  The support brackets behind the bumper need to be straitened a little more before the bumper can be tightly secured.  Rear bumper and trunk was slightly pushed in and needs to be pulled out. The trunk does not latch right now, but all the parts to fix it after pulling it out are included.  The interior is  in pretty good condition, some small things need repair. Carpet is still in good condition.  The 390 engine came out of a '73 Ford F250 and was rebuilt and painted. We used some of the parts off the other engine, like the Thunderbird valve covers. We were going to put in a dual Flex-Lite fan, which is included with car. It may need new springs or shocks and It has a new electronic ignition as well.  I don't want to sell her, but I have to do to unforeseen circumstances. She has GREAT potential. Shipping will be buyers responsibility.

Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:

2015 Ford Mustang potentially 'leaked' by Car and Driver

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Few upcoming debuts have been as eagerly anticipated as the all-new Ford Mustang that's expected to debut shortly as the Mustang's 50th anniversary year approaches. Well, Car and Driver magazine would have us wait no longer as it claims to be leaking Ford's new global pony car early.
Of course what you're looking at is just as likely to be a composite rendering based on what C/D projects the new Mustang to look like, but to our eyes it looks spot on. Combining design traits from the Evos Concept with classic Mustang signatures and Ford's Aston-inspired grille treatment, C/D's images - including a complete 360-degree digital navigator - show a Mustang not only for the modern era, but also for global distribution, taking a quintessentially American car to markets its predecessors were never designed for.
Those global considerations are expected to spell the demise of the outgoing Mustang's holdout live rear axle in favor of an independent suspension, and a slight constricting of the exterior dimensions. And thanks to a separate leak, coming from a digital survey, we have apparent confirmation of what will power the new pony car. While the existing 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engines will apparently carry over with only slight adjustments in output, the survey confirms a new 2.4-liter turbo four will be positioned in between them, offering slightly more power than the V6 but markedly improved fuel economy for a manageable $560 premium over base.
