HERE IS A VERY NICE LOOKING AND GREAT DRIVING 1966 FORD MUSTANG HARDTOP WITH STOCK NUMBERS MATCHING 289CI/225HP A-CODE V8 AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. VERY ORIGINAL CAR WITH 72,553 MILES SHOWING ON THE ODOMETER.


Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person. AUCTION MAY BE STOPPED AT ANY TIME.

Vehicle came out of Wisconsin. Previous owner recently had the body completely repainted. This was a very original car, with one recent repaint. It has been mechanically maintained so it runs/drives good and can be driven anywhere. 

Under the hood lies the Stock MATCHING NUMBERS 289ci/225hp A-CODE 4V V8 motor that is virtually all stock down to the original valve covers, exhaust manifolds etc.

Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great. Transmission is solid and shifts good through all the gears. Brakes have been checked and adjusted and stop well. Car feels great, handles the road nicely, sounds great and is very responsive with a little play in the steering wheel.

Interior is all stock and original as you'll see in the pictures. Seats are in fairly good shape (some seam splits on driver's front seat). Dash is very good. Door panels are good. Carpet is old and worn but still fairly presentable. Headliner is NEW. Steering wheel has various cracks.  Overall a very presentable interior for a good driver.

Underside actually appears to be in typical older Mustang shape. Floorboards have been patched amateurly with sheetmetal (NEW FLOORBOARDS ARE AVAILABLE). Frame rails have rust on rear passenger side (where the extension close to the bumper is) and front driver's side, but can easily be patched/replaced. Shock towers still in one piece. Trunk appears to be VERY NICE.

The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is overall VERY GOOD with VERY NICE shine and only minor imperfections. Not working: radio, horn, couple of the smaller gauges disconnected, perhaps a bulb or two may need replacing. Carburetor could use some adjustment as car is a little cold natured, but otherwise runs/drives great. Appears that dash was cut at one point to house custom radio, which was recently replaced with stock one. 

I am sure there are several other things I am forgetting at the moment, so overall she is not perfect and to do it justice should be gently restored to your liking, or you can just drive it as is. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 50 years old so keep that in mind.

If you just want a GOOD LOOKING AND SUPER FUN DRIVER that runs/drives good, then this is the car for you. If you want a concourse correct show car, it will need a considerable amount of restoration to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Ford Escort returns... as a concept

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Ford is kickin' it old school at the Shanghai Motor Show for 2013 with a new Escort Concept - "a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design" as we said in our initial preview of the small C-segment sedan. Or, as Ford puts it, "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Potato, potahto...
It's an interesting amalgam of design notes with Ford's recent and stylish hexagonal grille up front, flanked by some pretty busy LED light clusters and chrome-trimmed air intakes at the lower extremities of the fascia, but the Escort Concept is not altogether unattractive. Besides its external appearance, we really don't have much information to report - Ford has not yet hinted at what may be powering this little machine, but we'd expect something with four cylinders and less that 2.0 liters of displacement sending a modest number of horses to the front tires.
It probably goes without saying, but we don't expect to see this Escort make its way to the United States, since we already have the Focus and the Fiesta battling it out in the econobox segment. That said, it's very likely to spawn a production model that will roll out here in China and in other developing market where multiple C-segment entries are becoming increasingly common. Check out our high-res image gallery of live images above, and let us know what you think of the car's styling, then scroll down below for the official press release.

Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
