This car was a barn find.  It was sitting there for 17 years.  We pulled the car out of the barn.  I replaced the distributor cap, spark plugs and wires and the car started right up.  Except for the carburetor needs work and the old gas in the system.  The car never smoked and it sat and idled and ran great.  Except for the old gas in the system and the carburetor not working right the car is drivable.  I think the accelerator pump inside the carburetor has dried up.  The windshield is not cracked and there is no broken glass in the car.  The car had a vinyl top on it.  Someone had stripped it off so I do not have the moldings for it.  The holes are still in the roof where the moldings were.  I've looked the car over and I can't find any indication that the car has been wrecked hard but there is some body filler in a few places around the car.  The car does need some body work.  The lower left and right rear quarter panels are rusted out and the valance panel under the front bumper is damaged but there is a good one to replace it in the trunk.  I haven't looked under the car but all the floor pans seem to be solid.  I tried to take pictures of everything on the car that may be a problem so please pay attention to the pictures.  THIS CAR HAS 83,000 ORIGINAL MILES.


PLEASE PAY ATTENTION.  At the end of the auction, $500 will be paid to PayPal.  If money is not deposited in PayPal within 24 hours of the end of auction, the sale is voided.  Negative feedback will be left and the car goes back on eBay for sale.  For local pickup only.  Any cost of moving this car from this property is the sole responsibility of the buyer.  Balance to be paid when the car is picked up.  The car has to be moved within 7 days.  Serious bidders only.  Good luck.

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.

Bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta hams it up for International Bacon Day

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

This is a bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta. It is a real thing, that a real, multi-billion-dollar company designed. And it isn't even April Fools' Day. Designed for International Bacon Day, which is also apparently a thing, the 2014 Fiesta is finished in Green Envy paint - we're told black paint, like the color of a skillet, made the car look camouflaged - and features 10 gigantic decals depicting strips of tender, cured bacon.
The design, which was approved by the CEO of Benton's Country Hams, Allan Benton, show off the depth of Ford's Custom Graphics program. Unbelievably, Ford will actually start offering bacon decals to everyday customers, including (and we can't believe we're writing this) dual bacon racing stripes which will no doubt have Carroll Shelby spinning and/or salivating in his grave, and a "side of bacon," which wraps a couple of strips over the rear wheels.
Benton, who Ford claims is the King of Bacon, had this to say: "This car just makes so much sense." The Fiesta's marketing manager, Liz Elser added, "It's just awesome to drive down the road in a piece of bacon."

2014 Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Ford Mustang

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

If you're a fan of Ford racing history, a Mustang worshiper or even just an avid follower of our yearly SEMA coverage, you may have heard the back story on the Race Red Mustang you see above. Back in 1964, Holman & Moody was tapped by the English Alan Mann Racing Team to race-prep three Mustangs for competition in the incredibly arduous 4,000-mile Tour de France Automobile rally. Competing mainly against Jaguar MkII saloons over 10 days and 17 stages, the H&M Mustangs took the top two places in the Touring class and the first-ever racing win for Ford's pony car.
Though the history of that first Mustang win hasn't been incredibly well known here in the States, the subsequent decades have seen plenty of racy versions of the car come and go. Last year at the SEMA show, we covered the brief debut of this living tribute to that piece of racing lore, the Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Mustang.
This limited-edition Mustang represents a kind of new venture for H&M, as the legendary racing shop has spent the last few decades earning its keep largely by restoring vintage racing cars. The urge to get back into the world of Ford and Mustang was powerful, however, what with the car's 50th anniversary looming and the current generation of 'Stang just about out the door.
