PLEASE READ COMPLETELY BEFORE BIDDING

This is a car that is 95% plus complete on the build and restoration. Straight body, interior is new and complete, the engine is all there, just needs the new MSD ignition hooked up to the megasquirt EFI brain (it's in the car and just needs to be wired in) and to be tuned. It has aluminum heads, roller rockers, new cam, and the intake is a tunnel ram custom fitted with 8 procomp EFI injector bodies with velocity stacks controlled by a megasquirt brain (almost $5k just in the custom EFI intake and electronics). The short block had between 3k to 5k miles on it when I bought the car and was told it was a 300hp crate motor. Turbo 350 tranny, newly rebuilt 373 10 bolt rear. New springs, shocks, brakes, brake lines, drums and disks, (everything looks new underneath and inside the car) new tires on 17" SS Cragar wheels, new side pipe exhaust, new stainless steel dash with all new gauges, including toggle EFI fuel pump switch and button start, new billet/wood steering wheel. Paint looks decent but is 10 years old (some scratches and cracks here and there) black with a hint of red metal flake. It does come with a steel hood with I believe a 4" cowl, but will still need to be cut to fit the custom EFI intake and injector unit. 

I hate to sell this car before it's complete, but I lost my job and I need living expense money.  I am not a mechanic either, so I won't be able to answer a lot of the technical questions as I paid to have the work that was done to it. I will try and answer any general questions though. 

As a note, we did have the engine running (see video) with the EFI and it had a miss/pop or something in it and I was told they thought it was the cheap Chinese ignition we had and it was bugged, so I just spent almost $600 on an MSD package that included the box, coil, distributor and wires and have that on the car now, but it's not yet tied into the EFI brain as I have no clue how. So it has all of the parts installed and ready to run, no need to buy anything else to complete the car mechanically. 

Oh on the intake, the guy who built this actually builds custom intakes and injector units for all sorts of different cars and his work has been featured in magazines, so it is a quality custom build. 

The buyer will be responsible for shipping or local pick up in Cocoa Beach, FL. 32931 zip.

Low listing price compared to what I have invested in this car as I need to sell it for living expenses. This is a really cool car, especially for the price. Someone is going to be very happy to get a nearly completed project that will be so much fun to drive and a major head turner when done! 

Good luck and happy bidding.

2015 Ford Mustang prototype spotted on the street

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Our trusty spy photographers have snapped the first photos of the 2015 Ford Mustang prototype out on public streets. With nearly every square inch of the machine covered in heavy camouflage, it's difficult to discern details, but we can see smallish horizontal headlamps at work in the coupe's nose. Ford has made it clear that modern lighting technology will allow the company to get away from large, expensive headlamp arrays in the near future, and the 2015 Mustang may very well be the first of the automaker's products to bow with the new tech. The philosophy was first displayed on the very attractive Evos Concept.
The extensive cladding doesn't extend all the way to the prototype's rockers in the instance, giving us a look at the heavily-sculpted sills. Overall, this test car looks considerably smaller than the current generation Mustang, and elements like a short front overhang and beefy dual-piston calipers give us plenty of hope for the future model. Of course, reports that the 2015 Mustang will bow with an independent rear suspension and EcoBoost power certainly don't hurt our feelings, either.

Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.

Amid Mulally rumors, Bill Ford praises company's deep bench

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Bill Ford went on the offensive to combat the rumors that CEO Alan Mulally would leave Dearborn for Steve Ballmer's vacated position leading Microsoft, adding that even if the 68-year-old, former Boeing exec were to depart, the Ford executive team is in a good place.
"I'm happy [Mulally] is going to stick around. But we also feel really good about where we are in terms of succession," Ford told Bloomberg TV, according to Automotive News. Rumors first cropped up about Mulally leaving Ford when AllThingsD speculated that he was in the running, early last month. In that same report, which you can read here, Ford's board of directors reportedly okayed the CEO stepping down ahead of his planned retirement in 2014.
That opened the floodgates, culminating in a report from a few days ago that the rumors over Ballmer's successor just might be true. The story is especially troubling, as Ford hasn't had Mulally under contract, according to AN. "He's here as long as he and I would like it to happen," Ford said, "We're also cognizant of training the next generation and getting them ready to go as well."
