About

Available is a quite-rare in this day-and-age 1st Generation Ford Granada. Automatic, 302 2-barrel, ac, psteering, pbrakes, pwindows very rare option on Granadas, especially on the coupe, amfm 8-track stereo, and digital rolling drum clock keeps perfect time. The car starts, runs, drives, and shifts good, and the original C-4 Automatic Transmission shifts solidly and smoothly in all gears, and has that awesome Nova-like TH-350 utilitarian hum to it A little over 51,000 miles believed to be original mileage given the condition of the intact factory seat upholstery and door panels, although I have no paper work to prove. I also have the original build sheet. Although this car is technically just as rare as a Porsche 356 Speedster now a days, it is far from the caliber of a Porsche, of course. Some may call the car a rusted pile of shit, a heap, or just something not to deal with, but the car made the drive all the way from the West Coast to here. Half-way through the drive to get here from the West Coast, I was stranded with the car for 3-weeks out West somewhere, and ended up doing a top-end rebuild on my own on the street, as in a pair of rebuilt heads installed, new lifters, new push rods, new gaskets all around, etc. The bottom-end of the engine is original and has not been touched, save for a new oil pan gasket and re-painted oil pan. The car is far from perfect, it needs a lot of body work on the roof, but is FAR from worthy of going to the crusher. All the side body panels, except for the roof, have no rust-through and are generally solid. AT THIS POINT I HAVE A LITTLE OVER $4,200 IN PARTS ALONE, NOT INCLUDING ALL THE TIME AND LABOR I HAD INVESTED IN IT. I AM MY OWN LIFE-TIME CAR MECHANIC, THEREFORE ABLE TO DO ALL THE WORK MYSELF. I AM A VETERAN, AND I NEED THE CASH. CLEAN CALIFORNIA TITLE IN MY NAME, SO NO NEED TO WORRY OUT SOME SORT OF MONKEY-BUSINESS WITH ME FLOATING AROUND THE TITLE OR OTHER MISREPRESENTATION. THE SELLER OF THIS CAR IS THE ACTUAL OWNER OF THE CAR METhis Granada has been a labor of love for me, but now I must finally depart ways with it and move on with my life, and try to save up for some sort of meager retirement savings An itemized list of all parts I have installed on the car in the past 2 years of owning it is belowEBAY PARTS BOUGHT AND INSTALLED BY ME not including labor-Motorcraft Fuel Filter FG778B $7.40-Ignition and door lock cylinder set $30.61-Motorcraft Spark Plug Wire Set WR-3946-C $38.63-DTS Starter Solenoid SW-3 $8.90-Fuel Pump Airtex 6750 $16.50-United States Army Disabled Veteran Bumper Sticker $2.48-PMGR Mini Starter TA05111001P $35.61 -AC Compressor Belt DD Drive Belts JC616 $9.87-Motorcraft Windshield Wiper Blade Refill WV16 2 each $7.54-Power Window Motor Dorman 742-251 $26.84-Power Window Motor Dorman 742-250 $29.95-Crankcase Breather Element Hastings CB17 $5.51-Air Filter Hastings AF-800 $8.75-Rebuilt Carburetor Motorcraft 7200 Variable Venturi D8BE-AB $45.50-Voltage Regulator VRG2 $12.21-Front Clear License Plate Shield-Uniko $6.25-Cigarette Lighter Element Socket- Scott Drake $8.95-Hankook Optimo H724 2057514 4 Ea.
