Up for Auction is my 1967 Mustang convertible, No Reserve
Great Color combination and popular power train.
Here is the car by the numbers:
C-code 289 2bbl V-8
76A- Conv
W- Clearwater Aqua
2K- Aqua Standard bucket seats
35- Build Oct141966
0- 2.79 Rear axle
W- C-4 automatic trans
The Marti Report has the options listed including Am Radio Exterior Group and tinted glass. (all the green tinted glass looks in nice condition with all the window parts and scissors included)
The car has had a lot of metal work done already.and there more welding to be done. It is a project.
Here is a list of how solid the bases of the car is. Even though the metal work was done before I got the car, It has new battery tray. front aprons on the left and right are new. The right rear apron needs a repair patch on top behind the shock tower. The shock towers are great on both sides. The front rails are great. The floor boards are new and the frame supports. The rear rails, inner wheel wells, rear drops, and rear floors are new and welded in. The gas tank seems new. This sheet metal listed is all welded securely in place. Now I do not know how perfectly straight it is because I did not have the car at the time it was welded. It seem close, . Yet to be welded will be the outer rear wheel wells. The door latch posts need to be welded back in ( I have those original ones). Then the back panels need to be put in. The inner and outer rockers are great. Missing the rocker chrome trim. The doors are original and in wonderful conditioned and primed. The rear full quarters and front fenders are new aftermarket parts. The rear panel is new. front and rear lower valances are original and are in usable condition. I have bolted the car together for a few of the pictures so that you can get an idea of the car as a whole. You can see which of the original pieces are good and which might need to be replaced. I have also taken pictures of the car with the quarters not on so you can see all that still needs to be done.
The frame for the convertible top works well. The canvas will need to be replaced of course. I left the material on the frame so that the original items would not be disturbed.
The Original hood might needs to be replaced or worked because there is rust through in the corners. near the window. I have a couple of rear deck lids that come with the car. The best deck lid was not original to the car, but it is an great very little surface rust on it that will work better than an aftermarket decklid.
I did get under the dash to look at the cowl vent which looks like the divers side should be repaired
In the engine bay it looks wonderful, I dropped the engine back into the car for easy transport. The engine will need to be rebuilt most likely. I do not think it is the original engine because the date codes seems to be a few months earlier that the car. It still is a 289 and the C-4 transmission seem in great shape, and the torque converter is in great condition. ( the fly wheel and torque converter are not in the car). I was told the crank in the engine was not good. There is also a engine block with the correct date code that goes with the car. ( maybe that block has a good crank). The car has Power steering, you can see the pump in one of the pictures I think. The car has been equipment with front disc brake, I have no idea if the brakes works, the lines are all hooked up. the car rolls around and steers wonderfully. It will have to be pushed up onto a car hauler. The transmission is not hooked up, so you will have to use tie downs so the car does not roll
I have taken pictures of all the items that go with this original car. One of the only thing that I can tell is missing are the interior rear quarter trim-those are the rear arm rests. You'll need to recover cover the original seats most likely. Most of the parts are usable as is, or you can replace them with shiney new bits.
I will unclip the rear quarter for transportation and put them inside the car. The doors do not latch shut yet because the latch pillars are not welded back in yet, but I will secure the door shut. The front fenders have a few bolts in them so they will be fine for transport. I will take off the front grill and headlight buckets and put them in the car, because they are just zipped tied to the fenders for the pictures.
The seats are bolted in and the dash is secured and hasn't been taken out, so it will travel fine. the Marti Report will come with the car along with the CLEAN and CLEAR TITLE
The car has been under restoration for many years now. I got the car a little while ago, but I have other more pressing things to go. I do not weld, and my welding friend just moved, and I do not want to send the car to body shop and pay those prices. So the wife says sell the car. My lose could be your gain. I do know that the original C-code V-8 cars are the ones to invest time and money into because they bring the better money. I love this highly sought after color combination. These car sell for $25,000-30,000 when done nicely. This car already has had most of the back breaking work done already. there is still a lot of fit and finishing work to do, and lot more welding, but this is a VERY SOLID car, don't waste time on some old rust bucket.
I have taken a lot of pictures. Email if you would like me to send any other pictures directly to you email of specific areas of the cars of different parts.
Serious buyers are welcome and encouraged to see the car in person and take their own measurements, and see all the parts before the end of the auction, because at the end of the auction the last bidder is the winner and that is exactly what I will take for the car. The car is selling at no reserve
and is being sold as is.
I need a $500 deposit within 2 days of the end of the auction. And the balance in cash or Bank transfer with-in 7 days and before pick-up.
Shipping and transportation is totally up to the buyer.
I will sell the car internationally. but the money needs to be in my hand before I release the car or the title. I can help talk to talk to your transportation company to help with timing of delivery.
I think I described the car the best I could and I'm sure I forgot something , but the pictures should help. ask me any questions you want.
Thank you for looking and bidding

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."

With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.

Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
