Up for auction is my 1966 Ford Mustang project car. The vehicle is an original 289 car. I brought it home and began deconstruction on it to see what kind of hidden damage it had.

The driver side quarter panel has been braised in with an original Ford part at some point. Much better than the replacement

The floor pans, passenger side quarter, radiator support, battery apron, and tail light panel have been replaced. The only spot that I know of that would require any further welding is about the size of a business card on the passenger side roof rail, as can be seen in the pics. Car has a new steel hood to bolt on once its painted. The fenders look good. The passenger side had some slight bondo repair on it. I would honestly just reskim it and use them as opposed to buying the aftermarket parts.

The car has a completely reworked suspension and steering linkage. I put Gas a just shocks all the way around, 1" lowering springs on the front, new leaf springs in the back and everything has prothane bushings on it. I sprayed a truck bedliner on the inner fenders and was planning on doing so on the interior floor pans as well, just the weather has not been right for awhile.

I still have all of the glass from the vehicle, but the windshield does have a crack in it and should be replaced.

Here is a list pf parts and prices that have been bought for the car so far:

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.
Scroll down to watch the video report.

2015 Ford Focus

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.
