1967 Ford Mustang Convertible W/ Oem Shelby California Special Rear Solid Car! on 2040-cars
Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, United States
|
You are bidding on a very solid, original-unrestored 1967 Mustang convertible with some very desirable additional parts to create a unique Shelby or California Special tribute car! This Mustang was last licensed and driven in 1978 and sat outdoors until 1982 at which time the carpet was removed and it went into dry-indoor storage, where it's been for the past 32 years. It is still in it's original factory finish, meaning it's not full of bondo. This car is not a rust-bucket, it is very solid for an original-unrestored car! The rust that is in the car is from carpet and dirt moisture. Here's where there is notable rust to address: The outer-most edge of the driver's floorboard where it meets the inner-rocker; One small spot in the right-rear floorboard near the base of the driveshaft hump (both from carpet moisture); The very bottom rear inner-quarter panel on the passenger side; The front inner-fender top rail where the shock tower overlaps the sheet metal (two quarter-sized spots on each inner-fender). Here's the really good news about rust: The unibody frame is completely solid from front to back, including the torque boxes; The hood is completely straight and solid inside and out; The front fenders are completely solid; The outer-rockers are completely solid; The outer quarters are straight and solid; As you can plainly see in the photos, the great majority of the floorboards are solid. As you can also see in the photos, the inside trunk area and inner-wheel wells are completely solid. The front & side factory-original tinted glass is all completely flawless, as is all the stainless trim. The Mustang comes with a clean Minnesota title. The car was originally a 6-cylinder automatic car as you can see by the VIN code. there is no motor included. The original transmission & torque converter are still in the car, along with the starter, alternator and the original tire jack & handle are in the trunk. I do have several other parts that will go with the car such as: a good 9" rear axle assembly, rear-shock mounts, attaching hardware, heavy front-sway bar, V8 motor mounts, a manual clutch/brake pedal assembly (all these parts came from a 1968 Cougar GT) and a flawless chrome radio outer-bezel with inner & outer control knobs. The fiberglass trunk lid, fiberglass rear quarter extensions, sequential taillight panel and quarter panel side-scoops are all originals from a 1968 California Special. They are factory Ford and are the same as used on an original Shelby. The trunk lid is excellent throughout with no cracks or flaws inside or out. The fiberglass LH rear-quarter extension has no flaws, the RH has a crack and a puncture near the bottom behind the bumper area. The LH quarter side-scoop has no flaws, the RH shows repaired damage on the inside. The fiberglass taillight panel has one very minor flaw, the top-right outermost attaching screw ear is missing the outer-corner (about half the diameter of a dime). There are no other flaws or issues and the taillight assemblies are complete and in very good condition. The chrome outer-bezels do have some light surface pitting. The light wire harness assemblies are both nice with no flaws and all six steel bulb access covers are nice with no flaws. Please, please, don't ask for a "buy it now"; I don't want cars, boats, girlfriends, or trades of any kind; Don't try and impress me with how much you know about Mustangs; I won't sell the Shelby/California Special items separately, it all goes as a package, you part it out if you need to; If you don't have the money to buy it, then don't bid! Sorry, just getting all that out of the way. Please do feel free to contact me with valid questions or concerns regarding the Mustang. I also have 40 additional picture I am willing send to serious buyers by request. Rest assured my reserve not out there in "neverland" and is very realistic for the quality of this package! NOTE: Do see my other auction for the RARE Mustang high-performance gauge cluster with the 8000 RPM tachometer to compliment this great project car! Thanks for looking and good luck! |

Quitting Mexico factory helps bring down Ford earnings $200 million in 2016
Thu, Jan 26 2017Ford released its 2016 earnings report this morning, and despite a fourth quarter net loss it proved to be the automaker's second most successful year ever, following record breaking numbers in 2015. Losses for the year come from a number of sources, including accounting changes and a $200 million hit for backing out of the small-car factory in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Despite the loss, come March 9 about 56,000 UAW-represented employees will receive a $9,000 profit-sharing check. That, like most of Ford's other 2016 metrics, is slightly down from the year before, but it's still the second best profit-sharing payment ever. Total net income was $4.6 billion, down $2.8 billion from 2015. Total revenue for 2016 was $151.8 billion, up $2.2 billion. Ford's earnings report lists a global market share of 7.6 percent, down a tenth from 2015. Ford's European and Asia-Pacific markets posted their best and second best pre-tax profits respectively. The South American, Middle East, and African markets all took hits because of unstable economies and other external factors. Ford expects to have another down year in 2017 as it invests in new and emerging markets and focuses more on its mobility projects.Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Ward's announces 10 Best Engines 2015
Wed, Dec 10 2014Ward's Auto has named its 10 Best Engines for 2015, covering a range of powerplants from fuel-sippers to fire-breathers. As with past years, forced-induction reigns supreme, with seven of the ten engines featuring a turbo or supercharger. This year is slightly different, though, as two of the seven blown engines are turbocharged three-cylinder mills, from the Ford Fiesta and Mini Cooper. They're joined by the 2.0-liter turbo four from the Volvo S60, the 1.8-liter turbo four from the Volkswagen Jetta and the 2.0-liter boxer from the Subaru WRX. BMW and Chrysler were the only marques to be named to this year's list twice, with the electric motor from the i3 joining the Mini's three-pot, and the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 in the Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee repping the diesel crowd, alongside a certain supercharged monster. Hyundai also took a prize with a zero-emissions powertrain, with the Tucson FCV's 100-kilowatt fuel cell making the list (apparently Ward's is quite generous with what it deems an "engine"). Rounding out the list are two Autoblog favorites, each displacing 6.2 liters, but producing their power very differently. On the one hand, Chevrolet's overhead-valve, 455-horsepower V8, found in the Corvette, makes its power the old fashioned way. And in the other corner, we have one of the most exciting engines of the year – the 707-hp, 6.2-liter, supercharged Hellcat V8, featured so prominently in the Dodge Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat. "We spend a lot of time reading the powertrain tea leaves throughout the auto industry, and we're proud that this year's list is a microcosm of all the latest innovation coming from automakers," said Ward's Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter in a statement. "It's not just a list for enthusiasts or for environmentalists," he says. "There's something for every vehicle shopper and every budget. All the powertrains on this list deliver a first-rate driving experience," Winter added. Scroll down for the full list from Ward's, and let us know which engines you think belong and which should have been included in this year's rankings. Ward's 10 Best Engines of 2015 Announced by Penton's WardsAuto Honorees span most diverse and technically advanced engines in 21 years of recognized powertrain excellence SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Dec. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Penton's Wards 10 Best Engines of 2015 have been announced.
Gary Cooper's 1935 Duesenberg SSJ fetches record price at Pebble Beach
Mon, Aug 27 2018The 1935 Duesenberg SSJ formerly owned by Gary Cooper sold for a jaw-dropping $22 million over the weekend at the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach auction, setting a record for the most valuable pre-war car ever sold at auction. It also appears to have become the most expensive American collector car ever sold at auction, eclipsing the very first Shelby Cobra ever made, which sold for $13.75 million in 2016. The Duesenberg was also the lone American-made entrant in the list of top 10 sellers, which was crowded with the names Ferrari and Porsche. You have to go all the way down the list to No. 21 to find the next American car: a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster Phaeton, which sold for a mere $1.127 million. All told, Gooding & Co. said it realized more than $116.5 million in auction sales over the weekend, with a whopping 25 cars sold for north of $1 million, an 84 percent sales rate and an average transaction price of $947,174. Clearly this is how the other half 1 percent lives. Gooding & Co. said there were five world-record sales at the auction. Joining the Duesenberg were a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II, which sold for $5.005 million; a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, $6.6 million; a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale, $3.41 million; and a one-of-two 1966 Ferrari Dino Berlinetta GT, $3.08 million. Oh, and that 1969 Ford Bronco test vehicle we told you about? The one that was rebadged by Holman & Moody as a Bronco Hunter? It sold for $121,000, which was well below the expected range of $180,000 to $220,000. Perhaps it was the presence of all those gorgeous Porsche Spyders and Ferraris that meant collectors weren't interested in boxy, utilitarian off-roaders. View 24 Photos Gooding and Co. had expected the convertible Duesenberg coupe to go for more than $10 million. It was one of only two of its kind built by Duesenberg — the other having gone to Clark Gable — with a specially shortened, 125-inch wheelbase and a supercharged straight-eight with double overhead cams, able to produce around 400 horsepower and a top speed of 140 miles per hour. It features a lightweight open-roadster bobtail body produced by LaGrande out of Connersville, Ind. The car was also owned at one point by race driver Briggs Cunningham.
