1955 Crown Victoria glass top, VIN# U5SF151113# which is an “M” coded car which means it has a 272 4-barrel high performance engine, power steering, power brakes, 4-way power seat, power windows, factory dual exhausts. The car was purchased in Massachusetts in 1962 for which the owner has a bill of sale. The car was stored in a barn in 1964 while the owner attended school in Europe. To make a long story short, one of the beams in the barn broke away and fell on the passenger side rear quarter window section breaking the quarter window and damaging the roof line which caused a long crack in the glass roof and minor roof damage. When the owner returned he had the car removed and put in a garage where it was taken apart. After thinking it over he decided that he was going to have it repaired but didn’t have the money so he knew it would be a long time before the car would be fixed. He removed all of the interior, head liner, power seats and rear seats, door panels, rear quarter panels. He also removed all the outside stainless steel. The grille was removed and was sent away for re-plating. The front and rear bumpers and bumper guards were sent away for re-plating also. A new glass top was also ordered at a hefty price. To this day the glass top is still wrapped in the factory wrapping. The bumpers and grille are also still wrapped. You can see them in the pictures of the open door of the trailer. If you look carefully on the left hand side you’ll find the bumpers and on the right hand side you will find the glass top wrapped in plastic wrapping. Underneath the glass you have the front windshield and the rear glass and a box of all new glass rubbers for all the new glass. Now after 4 or 5 years he thought he found a body shop that could do the job and that just didn’t work out. The car stayed in the shop for quite a few years. A few years later he found another place but that didn’t work out either. Then he called me. I knew of the right guy. Specializes in Crown Victorias and glass tops. He made arrangements to have it done and sent it to him. For some reason I don’t know they couldn’t agree on a price and money was even scarcer than it was before so it stayed there, outside, for many, many years. All the time that it was there the shop owner tried to keep the body covered and away from the weather. In reality you still have a 1955 Crown Victoria glass top, complete car that still hasn’t been repaired. All the good stuff, glass top, and chromed articles, seats and upholstery were stored away. The only thing that was left out was the body that was pretty well emptied years ago. Somewhere during that time there was some vandalism and someone had taken the power window lift units but left the glass and everything else. Can’t go on forever so if you want more information call me at: (207)873-5402 for the rest of the story. I will put all the pictures I have so you will have an idea of what I didn’t mention.

The parts and the remaining vehicle are being sold AS IS, where is with no warranty, expressed, written or implied. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have asked all of the questions necessary or thoroughly inspected the vehicle and to have satisfied himself or herself of the condition. If you are not sure about something please ask. Once again if you have questions please email. I reserve the right to end this sale if the vehicle is no longer available for sale.

Ford EcoBoost successful because of Soviet laser weapons system expert?

Sun, 28 Jul 2013

Mike Kluzner is a man of many talents. Not only is he the software engineer responsible for fuel system diagnostics for Ford globally, he "got his start designing laser weapon systems capable of disabling the navigation systems of enemy satellites" for the former Soviet Union. Quite a résumé, wouldn't you say?
You may be asking yourself the same question that popped into our minds upon reading about Mr. Kluzner: What do laser weapon systems have to do with Ford and its EcoBoost engines? We'll let the man answer himself. "The same process for analyzing key physical relationships works for what we do today in engine combustion, catalyst chemistry and mechanics," says Kluzner. "These are all part of Ford's software engineering expertise." Who are we to argue?
Ford also employs an engineer who previously designed software to detect damage to the heat tiles on the International Space Station, as well as one who's past work involved particle physics, says the automaker in the press release below. David Bell (pictured above right), global boost system controls engineer for Ford, describes the software running EcoBoost as "the secret sauce" that makes the technology work as the driver intends and demands.

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
