Hello, I am listing my 66 mustang for auction. I have owned this car for about 15 years. I am a car guy and a ford guy. I believe this is my best description of how I acquired this car. So the previous owner possibly the original owner drove it and loved it until the harmonic balancer came apart and broke the crankshaft at which point the car was put into storage. Either a truck body or a garage with a bad roof but the car sat until the roof of whatever storage situation was being used started to leak. Water leaked down on the car and made its way through the trunk and did a number on the quarters and trunk Pan on the drivers side. At some point around 92-94 the car was donated for a tax right off and that's how it ended up at the salvage yard were I found it. I traded a Harley for the car. When I got the car home I pulled the engine sent it to the machine shop ordered a crank kit and a new balancer and reassembled it. I used reproduction parts and paints to reassemble to keep it original as possible. I had it running and very strong I might ad however it's been sitting since 2001-2003 somewhere in that range. The car had 4 repaints of silver blue metallic on it so I replaced and or stripped any pieces I could so front fenders are ford stamped units. New front and rear valances a full qtr on the drivers side and a partial on the passenger side. I etched primed the car covered it up to work on other projects and never got back to it. It's been inside my garage covered for pretty long now and I just have not had the motivation to finish it. I'm getting reading to build a new shop in march and I have to give something up to make room. So here it is. It was hard for me to take great pictures because the car was buried and its winter I can add more if necessary. It's a neat car as mustangs go and a true GT with air. Stuff I think is cool are the original floor mats FOMOCO mufflers and a old Saint Christopher pin on the visor. The glass is out window mechanism out most of the interior is still in the car AM stereo, pony interior. I attach'es some grainy photos of the car when I got it back in the day. Thanks for looking.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.
