I am selling this car for my sister who has sold her home in Hayward, WI and has moved to an assisted living facility in St. Paul, MN.
It is a one owner car as she and her husband bought it new. It was always stored inside and was well maintained.
The timing belt was replaced in 2009, according to her records. To add value to the car, new brake pads, rotor and rear linings were replaced this spring.
I haven't found any rust, but there are dings on the car. The tires have a lot of miles left in them yet.
Note that the car has a 5 speed manual transmission. It has an EPA of 31 City, 36 Highway.
My sister has kept the window sticker which gives a lot of info, such as: the engine has a block heater. The color is officially "Sunrise Red" and the interior is "Opal Grey Cloth". Of course it has air conditioning.
I would expect any buyer to personally inspect the car and arrange shipping. Payment should be by cash or cashiers check. Cashier's checks will be checked with issuing bank. Price is firm.
Feel free to ask any questions about the car.
On Aug-13-13 at 18:49:55 PDT, seller added the following information:A brake line was replaced, not the brake linings as I have indicated. Mechanic said rear brakes were in good condition.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.
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.
