Camptonville, California, United States

I am listing this car for a friend who does not have internet access for selling on eBay.  
This car is a done, registered / insured / daily driver, having a modern drive train that is very dependable to drive anywhere.

The photos show this car is basically a very cherry bone stock original, having a modern upgraded drive train; stock 350 Chevy V-8 having custom added on engine accessories; aluminum intake, Edelbrock carburator, Air Conditioning, etc, Turbo 350 automatic transmission, power steering, 9" Ford differential, dual exhaust, etc.

This listing only allows no more than 24 photos, but I have plenty more to show of great detail including those of some very simple, minor, repairable flaws, such as; paint bubble/lifted just below the gas tank door, driver side door glass has a hairline crack [any automotive glass shop could cut & replace with a new one, original dome light lens is missing, etc. very simple things like that can be done a little at a time later on while still enjoying the car as it is now.

We used a tow truck only to lift the car up high enough for taking photos showing the under carriage is very clean & original, never any rust out, no damage, never ever been repaired that I can tell or see, along with having very nice original chrome bumpers & trim moldings, etc

We, [the car] is located in California about a 2 hour drive from both either the Sacramento, or the Reno, Nevada airport. 
You can fly out for us to meet you at the airport of your choice, complete the final sale transaction to then drive it home.

Email your phone number I will call you, or for any more photos/questions way ahead of time, such as your plans on transporting, air travel, etc.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
