We had to swap some hard to find Mustang parts and a wad of cash, but we got the deal done on this very neat old Ford. The only problem is; unlike most of our local semi-arid vehicles, this one was out of Denver and has some normal rust. Besides the rust you can see; there is a foot of frame that will need attention. Passenger floor pan needs replaced. Some other small misc. holes will need fixed. Doors, jams, etc. appear solid. This is the 300 horse 390. We are told they checked the numbers when they put the $2,533 in parts in the car. At that time it got a full engine rebuild, new brakes, tires, new exhaust, and a full engine compartment detail including decals. Car starts, runs, and drives as you would expect from the result of a correct job. Engine is quiet and very strong. Carb functions correctly and the non-power brakes stop fine. This car has the correct 500 XL pieces inside and out, including buckets and console with shift. This is a good straight start, but will need the interior kit, rear quarters, passenger front floor, and other misc. rust repairs, but it is 99% there and nice trim and hubcaps on a pretty straight body. Windshield has a crack up through the middle and the top and boot are in fair to good condition. It is missing the XL emblem on right front fender and we only have half of the letters for the trunk. We have seen much worse than this bring a lot of money. Our reserve price is what a non-mechanical reconditioned small V8 car should bring. Have fun, but intend to pay for it when you bid. The car is fun to drive and presents itself well as it is. Do a total restoration or slowly bring it back to new. Either way: Check Google, these are $30-45,000 units when finished. It is rare and '63's are fine looking cars. Car is stored inside and there is not a great hurry in picking it up. Insure it when you buy it. We do not charge extra to help load. If car goes over a month for pickup, it might get moved outside. Thanks for looking. $500 down is due within 48 hours of auction end unless prior arrangements have been made. Remainder is cashiers check or bank wire or? within 7 days. We will work with you. Allow cashiers checks 2 weeks to clear our bank.

Mustang Cobra Jet prototype garners $200k for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Wed, 02 Oct 2013A few weeks ago we brought you news of a one-off Mustang Cobra Jet that Ford was donating to charity. The car was set to be auctioned off by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Now that auction has taken place, bringing in an impressive $200,000 for MS research.
That's a lot of zeros for a Mustang, much less one you can't even drive on the street. But the unique pony car, bearing serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1, packs a 5.0-liter supercharged V8, competition gearbox, wheelie bar, roll cage... all you could want, in short, in a turn-key drag racer. And all that for a good cause.
Ford UK exec says EVs are a good way to lose a fortune
Wed, Mar 19 2014Stateside, Ford execs are quick to point out the automaker's expansion in the plug-in sector. And despite a minimal presence in the pure EV space, the Blue Oval has been promoting its plug-in vehicles as part of an overall effort to boost fleetwide fuel economy. Too bad the company's UK chief didn't get the memo. There's "no point in us getting behind [EVs] and losing a fortune" - Ford's Mark Ovenden Mark Ovenden, speaking rather frankly at the Geneva Motor Show recently, said he didn't have real high hopes for substantial electric-vehicle adoption and said the company's money was better spent on smaller gas- and diesel-powered engines, the UK's Daily Mail says. Ovenden said of EV development that there was "no point in us getting behind it and losing a fortune," adding that his goal was to have variants of Ford's EcoBoost engine in 40 percent of the company's vehicles. Ford has about a 15-percent market share in the UK. The UK doesn't appear to be as kind to the EV as the US. Nissan last year cut the price of its all-electric Leaf there last year by about $4,000, while the company rolled out a promotion for the Leaf late last year, including allowing Leaf drivers to borrow a gas- or diesel-powered Nissan for free for as long as two weeks a year during the first three years of Leaf ownership. In the US, Ford sold just 229 Ford Focus Electrics during the first two months of the year after moving 1,738 units in 2013.
Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines
Mon, 27 May 2013Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.
