This is a 1978 Ford Fiesta MkI, made in Germany and imported into the USA for three model years, 1978-1980. It is in great driving condition. It looks great and is ready to be driven home. This was originally a Southern California car and is rust free, except for a small amount of surface rust around the right rear window. The yellow paint is bright and shiny with only a few very minor blemishes. Underneath the car looks great and there are no signs of accident damage or repair. The interior is in great condition. The seat upholstery pictured is not original, however, these are merely professionally installed seat covers - done by the original owner many years ago. The original black/white houndstooth upholstery is underneath. I cannot attest to the condition of the upholstery - except to confirm that the original seat upholstery exists beneath the aftermarket covers. The door panels, headliner and dash are all original and in very nice condition. The car has a radio and is wired for speakers, but there are none installed. The speaker wiring is there and already run into the back of the car (seen in the pictures of the rear cargo area). The heater works well and the two speed fan works as expected; it is missing a knob on one of the controls, but a replacement one will be included with the car. The wheels and tires are in very good condition, with approximately 3000 miles on them. Mechanically, the engine was rebuilt 30,000 miles ago. The car itself has just over 128,000 miles. It starts right up and drives very well and has good power and fuel economy. The brakes were recently redone, new all around - calipers, rotors, drums and pads - new master brake cylinder. Also done were fresh wheel bearings and front end alignment. The car tracks well and stops straight and true. The front struts are KYB GR2 and nearly new. You will be hard pressed to find another Fiesta in this great condition. I had been looking for a long time when this one came along and have not seen one since. I had originally planned to turn this one into a street racer, but it is way too nice to start tearing it apart, so I am passing it along to the next person to look after. A deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours of auction end via Paypal The balance is due within 7 days of auction end via cashier's check or cash in person Buyer is responsible for pick up, shipping costs and arrangements.

2014 Ford Transit unveiled in Chassis Cab and Cutaway versions
Fri, 08 Mar 2013As a leader in commercial vehicles here in the US, we knew Ford wouldn't take too long to show off the chassis cab and cutaway versions of its 2014 Ford Transit van. Set to go on sale this fall, Ford already revealed the full-body version of the Transit, and now it has pulled the cover off exposed-frame models just in time to to compete against the all-new Ram Promaster.
The term "chassis cab" refers to models with a fully enclosed cabin used for box vans or rental trucks, while cutaway models leave the cabin open behind the B-pillars for a pass-through on vehicles such as Class C motorhomes or ambulances. Both will offer three wheelbase options (138, 156 and 178 inches), the choice of single or dually rear axles, and plenty of upfitter-friendly touches including a pre-wired body harness and multiple body mount locations.
The new design will also help make upfitting a little easier since the fuel filler is now built into the cab (just behind the driver's door). Those integrated fuel filler necks will serve to feed either a 3.7-liter V6, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, or a 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel. Transit chassis cab and cutaways will wear varying Gross vehicle weight ratings from 9,000 pounds to 10,360 pounds depending on spec.
Fewest vehicles ever found eligible for Most American survey
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Once again, the most American car on the market is from an American brand. The Ford F-150 retained its number one spot in Cars.com's annual survey of the most American vehicles, trumping the Toyota Camry, which remains at number two.
Ford taking the top spot is small consolation, though, as the Detroit Three aren't too well represented here. General Motors scored a win at number seven, with the Chevrolet Corvette, while Chrysler squeaked in at number ten, with the Dodge Viper. Outside of those three vehicles, Toyota and Honda dominate the top ten.
What's most remarkable, though, is that there were so few cars available for this year's list.
2014 Ford Fiesta Titanium
Mon, 28 Oct 2013You might not be interested in owning a subcompact (B-segment) hatchback for $20,000. Let's be clear from the get go here: there are any number of reasonable arguments for staying away from the highest-content versions of these small cars. Ford's player in the B-segment arena is the newly updated 2014 Fiesta, and the Titanium trim represents the most luxurious instantiation of the model. We recently were loaned a Fiesta Titanium for a week, whose final sticker price hit $20,390, with navigation being the only standalone option added to the bottom line. By way of comparison, the most basic version of the all new, one-segment-up Mazda3 hatchback costs $19,740 with delivery and destination accounted for, and no options added on.
Hold on to that thought for a moment, we'll get back to it.
