UP FOR AUCTION, A TRUE, 2 OWNER, LOW MILAGE (44,950 ACTUAL MILES ) BORN JALAPENO RED WITH CANYON RED AND WHITE LEATHER INTERIOR AND NICE WHITE TOP 1986 MUSTANG GT CONVERTIBLE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THIS WAS A SOUTH CAROLINA CAR, SO NO RUST ANYWHERE IN OR ON THE CAR. IT WEARS IT'S ORIGINAL PAINT AND UP UNTIL SEPT 2012 IT HAD THE ORIGINAL TIRES ON IT. PAINT IS GREAT EXCEPT THE PLASTIC NOSE IS FADED, NEW OWNER CAN PAINT IT IF THEY WANT TO, I WON'T BECAUSE THEY ARE ONLY ORIGINAL ONCE . EVERYTHING ON THE CAR WORKS LIKE IT SHOULD AND THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE A DREAM, IT EVEN HAS THE ORIGINAL MARCHAL FOG LIGHTS AND COVERS ON IT AND THEY ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE DASH HAS SOME CRACKING AS DO THE LEATHER SEATS DUE TO BEING IN THE SUN MOST OF IT'S LIFE, THESE ARE EASY FIXES AND WOULD MAKE THE CAR ALMOST PERFECT. MOST OF YOU WILL KNOW THIS BUT 86 WAS THE LAST OF THE 4 EYED MUSTANGS AND THE FIRST YEAR FOR FUEL INJECTION, THE 8.8 POSI REAR END AND THE ONLY YEAR THAT CAME LOWERED AND WITH UNDERDRIVE PULLEYS FROM THE FACTORY. THIS CAR WAS SPECIAL ORDERED FROM THE FACTORY ( THE REAR WHEEL ABS ) AND CAME WITH EVERY OPTION THAT COULD BE ORDERED. THIS IS A VERY RARE CAR, AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN ADULT OWNED. THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO WAS REPLACED IN JUNE OF 2010 WITH A USED SPEEDO SHOWING I02,994 MILES AS THE ORIGINAL QUIT SHOWING THE MPH AT 41XXX MILES AND WOULD NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. THE DMV PUT THE REPLACEMENT SPEEDO MILAGE ON THE TITLE AND IT WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE TO CHANGE IT AND I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO. I ALSO HAVE THE REPAIRED MAP POCKETS FOR BOTH DOORS BUT HAVE NOT INSTALLED THEM. A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER THE 140 MPH SPEEDO WAS INSTALLED BY ME AS I KEPT RUNNING OUT OF NUMBERS ON THE DIAL WHEN I DROVE IT ON THE INTERSTATE. YOU WILL NOT FIND A CLEANER,NICER, MORE ORIGINAL GT CONVERTIBLE ANYWHERE AND IT WILL ONLY GO UP IN VALUE. YOU CAN DRIVE THIS CAR FROM HERE TO ANYWHERE YOU WANT WITH NO ISSUES AND IT IS EASY ON GAS IF YOU KEEP YOUR FOOT OUT OF IT, 18-20 MPG CITY, 21-23 CITY/HIGHWAY COMBINED, 25 PLUS MPG ON HIGHWAY IF YOU USE COMMON SENSE, I GOT A LITTLE OVER 26 MPG DRIVING FROM ASHLAND VA TO VA BEACH VA AT 75 + MPH. THIS IS A GREAT CAR BUT NEED MONEY TO BUY MY DAUGHTER A BETTER CAR AS HERS HAS OVER 210,000 MILES ON IT. THIS CAR IS APPRAISED AT OVER $10,000 AND INSURED FOR $18,000 AND WORTH EVERY PENNY OF IT. MY RESERVE IS SET TO REFLECT THE CONDITION OF THE CAR, SO DON'T LET THIS ONE GET PAST YOU AS YOU WON'T FIND ANOTHER LIKE IT ANYWHERE AND YOU CAN DRIVE IT ANYWHERE. THE RULES: IF YOU HAVE A SCORE OF 10 OR LESS YOU MUST CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR YOUR BID WILL BE CANCELLED, I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL FOR THE $500 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT ONLY AND THE REST WHEN YOU PICK CAR UP OR HAVE IT PICKED UP. CASH IS PREFERRED BUT OTHER FORMS OF PAYMENT ARE ACCEPTABLE BUT CAR DOESN'T MOVE TILL PAYMENT CLEARS MY BANK AND YOURS, CAR IS PURCHASED AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID/BUY, YOU BID, YOU WIN, YOU OWN WITH NO EXCEPTIONS, AND I WILL HOLD YOU TO IT AS THIS IS A LEGAL AND BINDING CONTRACT, I THINK I COVERED EVERYTHING, BUT IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION OR TWO, DROP ME AN EMAIL AND I WILL ANSWER. THANKS FOR LOOKING, ENJOY THE PICS AND GOOD LUCK, ED.

Ford talking unibody Ranger replacement

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Now here's some welcome news. Car and Driver reports Ford is seriously mulling a replacement for the recently deceased Ranger, but the successor to the compact pickup's throne may not look anything like what we've seen from the nameplate in the past.
While speaking at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Doug Scott, marketing manager for Ford Trucks, said there's still a market for a smaller pickup, but that buyers expect to see a larger differentiation between the smaller utility vehicles and their full size counterparts in price, capability and fuel economy.
According to Scott, that means a vehicle with a payload capacity of around 1,000 pounds paired with a towing capacity of 3,000 pounds and "a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption." But the biggest piece of that recipe is the price tag, and Scott says to keep the MSRP far enough away from the already cheap F-150, the answer could come in the form of a unibody design. Scott says target customers in this market don't care whether the truck has a traditional frame or not, so long as it's tough enough to do the job and has the capability they need.

Devils, Details and Weight Reduction
There are many things I could call this exercise. A party is not one of them.
I've spent three days crammed in the axle well of this 1989 Mustang with nothing to keep me company beyond a trouble light, a DeWalt drill on the very last of its legs and billion razor sharp, red hot slivers of metal with an affinity for my most sensitive of regions. My joints are raw from crawling around on the concrete. I'm half deaf from the shriek of the spot weld cutter and the boom of the cold chisel and hammer.

Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
