Be the only 1960 Ford Starliner at your next car show or car cruise!  Set your self apart from Tri-Five, Camaro and Mustang crowd.  Everyone seems to have one of those cars but you will be the only one with this rare beautiful find!

 Here is you chance to own one of the very best rare and original unrestored 1960 Ford Starliners out there!  I am the second titled owner of this rare barn find vehicle!  I promise that there are not many rust-free 1960 Ford Starliners left.  This car is still wearing its original Ford paint, trim, interior and running gear.  Anyone who knows  anything about 1960 Fords knows that it is next to impossible to find one in a rust-free, unmolested condition with all the hard-to-find parts still intact.  This car could be kept in original condition (which is what I did since they are original once), or it would make for an easier unbelievable restoration.  Money ahead if you started a restoration with this vehicle. You will be hard pressed to find another original Starliner with 49,000 actual miles on the odometer. 

The overall condition of this rare find is excellent!  The body is straight and rust-free.  No patch panels or replacement parts will be found on it or needed.  The trunk is solid/rust-free and still has all the original mats and cardboard.  The trim(stainless) is in above average shape and is all there.  As with any car that is dripping with chrome or stainless there are some dings and dents (see pictures).   The paint is the original Corinthian White from the factory.  There are still the "red checks" from the factory where it passed inspection.  It does show some scratches and rock chips which is to be expected from a car that is 54 years old!  Motor and transmission are in excellent running shape.  Fly in and driver her home if you like.  The engine compartment and trunk were detailed to prevent any type of corrosion.  There was one spot on the driver side rear quarter panel that was blended due to a cat spraying it occasionally (this happened before I owned the car). No pets or children have been near it since.

This Starliner is equipped with FE 352 2BBL and the Cruis-O-Matic 3speed automatic transmission.  This car still runs and drives like it did back in 1960!  The motor has been tuned up (runs like a sewing machine) and the exhaust has been replaced and upgraded to original-like dual exhaust.  Manual brakes and power steering have been gone through and are in perfect operating condition.  White wall tires are brand new and have less than 1,000 miles on them.

Like the rest of the car the glass and interior is original and in amazing shape.  This car came with the black appointed interior.  Door panels and kick panels are original to the car and are like new(see pics). No rips, scratches or tears.  Only the padded dash has one crack next to the center speaker grill.  Headliner is original with no rips.  Most people at car shows are amazed at the condition of the interior!  Even the clock will run(well...most of the time).  Glass is clear with no cracks or blistering.  All the original Ford stamps are where they should be!

 This 1960 Ford Starliner comes with the original window sticker!  It was built in Chicago, IL and later sold at a dealership in Carthage, IL.  I picked up this barn find over 5 years ago in South Central Illinois looking for parts for my other restoration project.  The car had been in a farmers garage covered in blankets since 1985.  I purchased this vehicle, had everything mechanical checked out (including fuel system) and off I went.  Drawing crowds at every event or stop light.

Options on the vehicle are as follows:  352 2bbl, 3spd Cruise-O-Matic A/T, Power Steering, AM Radio, Clock, Magic-Aire Heater, Back-up lights,  Rear Bumper Reflectors and  Full Wheel Covers.  I do have other options available from 1960 if you are interested in but not included in this sale.

This sale is for PICK-UP ONLY!  Buyer is responsible for $1,000 deposit no later that 48hrs after auctions ends.  Balance to be paid in full at time of pick-up.  Cash or certified bank check.  If payment by check I will not release title until the check clears.

2015 Ford Mustang GT [w/video]

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

At 50 years old, the object of fantasies, a tuner's dream, a movie star and more than nine million strong, it couldn't be truer to say that the Ford Mustang needs no introduction. This newest Mustang, however - making the biggest changes we've seen to the pony car since perhaps 1964.5 - is something Ford has been introducing all year.
We went on a Deep Dive, covered the way it looks when it was revealed, detailed the engine specs, got a ride in the EcoBoost and listened to the V8, got rolling footage and watched it do a standard-feature burnout.
The only thing left to do? Drive it. Having now done so for a few hours around Los Angeles, what we can tell you is to forget everything you know about the Mustang. This new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment.

Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]

Wed, 29 May 2013

Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too. Owners of the 2012-13 Focus and 2013 Focus ST can now get a Roush cold-air intake system, and ST owners can also opt for a high-performance cat-back exhaust.
Although all of these components are now available for order, the parts will ship sometime in July; no word yet on pricing. Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.

2015 Ford Mustang dealer order guide surfaces

Tue, 13 May 2014

Details about the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang continue to leak out. In fact, at this point, it's more of a stream than a drip. Its option prices are already available, and now the full ordering guide is on the web for all of the trims thanks to the Mustang 6G forum. Ford is rapidly running out of secrets to keep about its new sports coupe.
The 21-page guide can be perused in the gallery below and contains all of the standard features, colors, options codes, descriptions. Generally everything you might want to know about the 'Stang is there, other than its price or power. It even shows off the available wheel designs.
The guide finally gives away the contents of the Performance Package for the EcoBoost and GT trims. The EcoBoost's package includes: A larger rear sway bar, new chassis tuning, larger brake rotors, 19-inch black wheels, retuned driver assistance systems, an aluminum dash panel, added gauge pack, 3.55 limited slip rear differential, larger radiator, heavy-duty front springs and spoiler delete. When the options pricing leaked, it indicated the package would cost $1,995. If that is the case, it seems like quite a deal.
