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

The Ford Focus ST has enjoyed a relatively calm, if brief, reign in the world of hot hatches. With nothing else in the class (in the States, at least) but the aging Mazdaspeed3 and Subaru Impreza WRX and the slow-selling Volkswagen Golf R, the Blue Oval's 252-horsepower five door has been the go-to vehicle for those that don't need the high-octane lunacy (and expense) of the rally bred Subaru Impreza WRX STI and Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X.
Now, though, as the new Subaru WRX (it's not an Impreza anymore, though, neither is it a hatchback...) starts to arrive at dealers, the Focus ST appears to be under threat for the first time. Naturally, Motor Trend is here to figure out which one is the best, with another one of its Head 2 Head videos. Host Jonny Lieberman puts both cars through their paces, going above and beyond, quite literally, at the very end of the video.
Have a look below and let us know what you think of MT's verdict in Comments.

Ford is giving its F-Series Super Duty trucks some upgrades for 2015, and we're happy to say that one of them is an improved Power Stroke diesel V8. Also, Ford is strengthening the top-of-the-line F-450 to handle more abuse. And if wild west-style luxury is your thing, the automaker has performed minor cosmetic updates to its King Ranch Edition trucks, as well.
The turbocharged 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 is currently rated at 400 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque, and Ford only tells us the new and improved Power Stroke can "produce power beyond today's" engine. What, then, did Ford actually improve upon? First, the Blue Oval swapped in a new, larger turbocharger. The new Garrett GT37 turbine unit is 72.5 millimeters in diameter, eclipsing the old GT32's 64-mm diameter piece. Ford states output increases with the new turbo setup, but since the new turbocharger operates at a lower peak pressure than the old one, the automaker was able to eliminate the wastegate system and reduce the engine's complexity. Ford even redesigned the turbo's oil and cooling lines to make the powerplant simpler. A byproduct of the larger turbo is better engine exhaust braking, which is controlled manually by a button on the dashboard.
Ford claims the upgraded diesel engine is more powerful, more robust, more efficient and more refined than before.

Healthcare costs continue to multiply in the US with no clear end in sight, but the United Auto Workers and the Big Three are negotiating a way to rapid growth under control. As part of the latest contract talks, the union has an idea to create a healthcare pool across all of its members at Ford, General Motors, and FCA US. If accepted, the company-wide integration would spread out the expenses and create a massive member base for bargaining with insurance companies. Both Ford and GM are at least considering the proposal, according to The Detroit News, and FCA US might be on board, as well. The idea is the work of current UAW president Dennis Williams and is based on the similar pool for the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association for retirees. "I've walked through this several ways; I just don't have any other answer," Williams said to The Detroit News. "I do believe this will work. It's worked with the VEBA." Williams was elected UAW president last year and won by an overwhelming margin. He vowed no more concessions to automakers. In addition to healthcare, the two-tier wage system is another major talking point in the contract negotiation because it gives fewer benefits to entry-level workers. Higher wages are also a request. Healthcare costs are a massive expense for automakers and are expected to reach over $2 billion this year, according to The Detroit News. The payments are up nearly 50 percent or more in just the last four years.
