Happy 50th Birthday Ford Mustang !!

I have owned and driven this car for 20 years, but now, after recently having a baby, I have realized that this car needs to be out and about (a wild pony cannot be tamed), driven, and cared for, more than I have time for anymore. This car is a DAILY DRIVER, and is fun to take to a local car show now and then.  This car is perfect for that responsible high school student, who needs a car to get back and forth to school and work, or the car enthusiast in the family.

Here is the important information :

  • 1965 Mustang, “C” Code
  • Automatic, Original 289
  • C-4 Transmission
  • Power Steering, A/C, Disc Brakes
  • This car has NEVER been in a wreck.
  • Whitewall Tires
  • (2) Sets of Keys – (1) Set for Daily Driving, and (1) Set of Originals
  • Pearl White Exterior with White Seats & Headliner and Red Carpeting, Dash and Trim (See Photos)

 Original : Floors, Frame, Doors, Fenders, Hood, Trunk, Quarters, Dual Exhaust

 Recently Rebuilt : Brakes, Tranny, Motor (I have put less than 1,000 miles on the car since the motor was rebuilt)

 After Market : A/C, Radio

 Brand New / Replaced : Starter, Solenoid, Radiator, Distributor, Wires, Heater Core, Hoses, Belts, Fuel Pump, Battery, Carburetor, .30 Over Bore, Rings, Pistons, Bearing, Cam, Lifters, Timing Chain, Water Pump, Oil Pump, Oil Filter, Oil Change

 Additional Information : Heads Redone, Valves Job, Crank Polished, New Tongue Converter

There is a tear in the drivers seat, where the seat seam is coming apart.  The interior was put in 20 years ago, and more often than not, the driver was the only one in the car.

There are a few chips in the front windshield, which have been there since the window was put in 20 years ago.   They have not gotten larger, expanded or multiplied.

Vanity Plate in photo is NOT included.

 Important Information :

   1. NO TRADES (so please don’t email me with this question).

2. Sold “AS-IS” – No Warranty (this car is 50 years old)

3. USA Sales ONLY – If you bid on this car, and you are OUTSIDE the USA, I WILL REFUSE to sell you this car.  NO EXCEPTIONS.

4. The state of Alabama DOES NOT issue a title for a Vintage Car.  So, I will provide Registration and a Bill of Sale.

5. I require a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of $1,000 within 2 days of the bid ending. The remaining balance within 2 weeks, finances must be cleared in my account before this car leaves my sight.

6. Buyer is responsible for pick-up of car.  I will NOT be delivering this vehicle.

7. If you have any questions or would like additional photos, please email me. (SERIOUS buyers ONLY).

MotorWeek finds nice things to say about the 1993 Ford Probe

Tue, Mar 8 2016

This latest in MotorWeek's series of Retro Reviews continues its recent trend of remembering the massive glut of sports coupes that hit the market in the '90s. While vehicles like the Mitsubishi 3000GT, Mazda RX-7, and Ford Mustang all enjoy solid reputations down to this day, the 1993 Ford Probe, well... doesn't. As you'll soon see, though, the show's opinion suggests the coupe's second generation isn't really all that bad. Turns out they just weren't particularly sporty. Ford and Mazda developed the Probe together, and the Japanese company supplied both the base 115-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder and the 164-hp 2.5-liter V6 in the GT trim. The original's pseudo-angular look gave way to a much smoother shape for the second generation. Of course, pop-up headlights remained, which were a design hallmark for many of this era's sports coupes. After driving it, MotorWeek proclaims the Probe is "a winner" and considers the handling a "delight." That's not a big surprise, considering that in those days, a car had to be really bad not to get a decent review from Television's Original Automotive Magazine. However, the show hints at some of the reasons the coupe isn't so well remembered today. Even the GT reportedly suffers from soft springs and lots of understeer, which sounds like exactly the opposite anyone hoping to drive the coupe enthusiastically would want. To sum it all up, we're sure you're just as happy as we are that Ford went back on its initial plan to shelve the Mustang in favor of the front-drive Probe. Related Video:

Ford recalling 830,000 vehicles to replace side door latches

Thu, Aug 4 2016

The Basics: Ford is conducting a recall for roughly 830,000 models. The affected vehicles include the 2013 to 2015 Ford C-Max, 2012 to 2015 Ford Focus, 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape, 2015 Lincoln MKC, 2015 Ford Mustang, and 2014 to 2016 Ford Transit Connect. The recall is focused primarily in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Georgia, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Oklahoma, Washington, and Oregon as the problem mostly affects cars in states with warm weather. The Problem: The pawl spring tab in the side door latch in the affected vehicles could break, preventing the door from latching and could even cause the door to open while driving. Injuries/Deaths: There is one reported injury and one reported accident. The Fix: Dealers will replace the affected cars' side door latches. If you own one: Reach out to your local Ford dealer to schedule a service.

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
