Cars & Transportation - 20 June 2006

My Dad had an early 1960s model Ford Cortina vehicle which he sold several years ago. It was in excellent condition and i've been told that it's considered a "vintage". I'm just curious as to whether that's true and if so, how much do you think he could have sold it for? It was in fine condition engine and body - the whole works. Thanks.

but I think it has something to do with the exhaust. When I attempt to accelerate, there is minimal power and it is loud with a gassy smell. What may be the problem?

It used to be that fog lights were to light up the pavement in front of the car without the reflection of the headlights off the fog and back into the drivers eyes. Now, most cars only let you turn on the fog lights along with the headlights, making them useless on foggy nights. I guess they must be just for looks.

It restarts okay, there are no lights on (such as check engine), it doesn't sound weird and it wasn't hot. Any ideas? I just had a sylanoid in the transmission replaced a few months ago and it had been running great!

Sometimes I know another way to a destination other than the route that the site recommends. I would like to customize the route and see if it is shorter or faster than the route that the site recommends. Do you know of any sites that allow that kind of customizing.

the firebird needs a carburator, to have the timing set, the doors dont lock, the rear hatch is permanently stuck closed, and the interior can use some TLC also, the 03 blaster fires up on the first try, runs like a dream, and has a brand new suspension in it, the guy wants to trade it as is sits for my firebird... i'm having a hard time deciding, good deal or no deal... i mean... its a classic... well, almost

The sound goes away after driving for awhile, and you only hear it after the car is initially started. Could it be the oil? I had the pipe before the muffler replaced two years ago. Could it be loose? Thanks!

I'm interested in purchasing a 2005 (or newer) Mustang. I love the retro design. I know the sticker labels an expected MPG of anywhere between 17 and 25, but I'm interested to know what your experience has been? Please, I'm only interested in 2005 or later, and please indicate if you own the V6 or the V8.

If you care to do so, detail any other pros and cons you've discovered while driving your car?

Thanks!
