Up for sale at No Reserve is a 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible. The car has been sitting for the past few years and is currently not running although it was a running driving car when parked. The 289 2v engine as well as the C4 automatic transmission were rebuilt right before it was parked and they have less than 500 miles on them. The body is in good shape with no rust through except on the lower passenger door (as seen) and some minor surface rust in areas, nothing a good sanding can't fix. The floors all appear to be solid. There is a minor dent on the front drivers fender from backing out of the garage, it can be seen in the pictures. The black paint you see on the rear on the car is primer and was put on a while back to protect the body from the elements but the car has been sitting inside a tent since parked, when washed some of the primer came off and that is what you see. The interior is pretty complete although a bit worn from sitting. The convertible top fabric was old and ripping from the California dry heat so I removed it, the frame is still there. All glass is there and in good shape. Three tires still hold air while the front passenger tire is dry and cracked and does not. She still wears her original California black and gold license plates. Included in the auction are an original jack and handles, a/c under dash unit, two a/c compressors, center console, wood grain steering wheel, extra black steering wheel with no cracks, and a 4 barrel carburetor with matching intake manifold. If you would like to schedule an appointment to inspect the car please call or text me at 714-603-1210. All interested parties are encouraged to inspect the car before bidding. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I have the clear CA title in hand. No Reserve, highest bid takes it. Thank You and good luck, Mark.

I added a picture of the engine block date code that says 4G22S. By my research this breaks down to July 22,1964.

Ford to spread all-wheel drive across performance range
Tue, Feb 10 2015Car and Driver took a closer look at the all-wheel-drive system in the Focus RS, Ford reps having made "broad hints" about it being applied to other performance vehicles. One spokesperson even said that he "can see this as one of those technologies of the future." That would make sense because, as C/D notes, it couldn't have been an inexpensive job to engineer the torque-vectoring unit for the Focus – one that can send 70 percent of torque to the rear wheels, and send 100 percent of that portion to either wheel if needed. C/D also clues into the system's close similarity to the AWD unit in the recently updated Range Rover Evoque, which is manufactured by Sweden's GKN Driveline. In the Evoque, torque vectoring is brake based and two electronically controlled clutches turn the Range into a front-wheel-drive crossover under 22 miles per hour. Ford wouldn't comment on the GKN Driveline connection, or even if there is one. No matter where it might come from, more performance Fords are good for every enthusiast, and we do not look an AWD, torque-vectoring gift horse in the mouth.

President Trump to visit Michigan on Wednesday to attend auto-related event
Mon, Mar 13 2017President Trump will visit the Detroit area on Wednesday for the first time since taking office, the Detroit News reports this morning, to meet with officials of automakers, suppliers and unions, and to attend a rally of autoworkers. Trump might use the event to announce his intentions to roll back fuel-economy standards for cars and trucks. The automakers agreed to the standards, which set a goal of a fleet average 54.5 miles per gallon by the year 2025, under President Obama, but they have lobbied Trump to repeal them. "This is a continuation of a dialogue with the auto industry leaders, and also going back and reconnecting with a lot of the people who elected him," Chris Liddell told the News. Liddell is former chief financial officer of General Motors and now assistant to the president for strategic initiatives at the White House. Trump might also use Wednesday's visit to advocate the House Republicans' proposed replacement for the Affordable Care Act. Later Wednesday, he will attend a campaign-style rally in Nashville, and White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has said the president intends to hit the road to sell the American public on the Obamacare replacement plan. The auto industry has been high on Trump's agenda - and a focus of his rhetoric to return manufacturing jobs and facilities to the United States. During his first week in office, Trump met privately at the White House with the CEOs of Ford, GM and Fiat Chrysler, and GM CEO and Chairman Mary Barra and Ford CEO Mark Fields are members of Trump economic advisory groups. He has criticized Ford and GM for making cars in Mexico and took credit when Ford scrapped plans for a new plant there.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.
