I’ll be right up front about this listing; Sadly this “Grocery Getter” probably isn’t worth much for anything other than a parts car. It s a complete 1959 Ford Country Sedan that was converted into a “Surf Wagon” back in the 70’s and then parked under a pine tree closed up tight where it sat untouched for over 30 plus years. The floor pans are rotted through. the Interior has allot of condensation rust from being sealed up, upholstery is trash. Well except maybe the back seat which is still wrapped in a dealer installed plastic cover. You can pretty much tell the overall abused/neglected condition of this poor old “Long Roof” in the pics, which are current.
I haven’t tried to start it (332 V8, w/automatic), the tires hold air for about five minutes, no brakes. I bought this station wagon for the 9inch rear end which I had rebuilt and exchanged it with the overhauled 8 inch out of my 56 Fairlane resto rod. This wagon has a good 56 Ford sedan rear end under it currently, other than that it hasn’t been touched in 30 plus years.
I don’t want to invest allot of time answering questions about this car. I’m also not interested in parting it out. No B.S., if it doesn’t sell I’ll have it picked up for scrap. However if you are seriously interested and in need of a parts car, I’ll do my best to help with any questions or take specific pictures as I’d hate to see this poor ‘ol wagon crushed. Yes, I have the title, but I won’t surrender it until you physically remove the car, as I don’t want the car abandon here and me without a title to have it hauled off. And really, it’s probably not worth fetching unless your within a few hundred miles of Redmond Oregon, it will have to be picked up on site and wenched onto your trailer. In it’s current shape it can’t really be moved towed anyplace for shipment. 10 percent deposit withing 48 hours, balance due when car is picked up within 30 days of end of auction (Cash or Cashier check)

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.
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.
Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
