Beautiful 1968 FORD MUSTANG FASTBACK.
This is a “Turn Key” car that has been completely restored from top to bottom.
This is a Great car that can be driven to car shows and cruise-in's and really be enjoyed.
This car needs nothing but a New Owner and Driver!
Here are the details of the car:
1968 Fastback Mustang with Marti Report, Buck tag, and Door tag.
Body: Car was completely taken apart in 2011.
It was disassembled to a shell and all New Ford sheet metal was used. This includes, New Front Fenders, Inner
Fenders, Battery Box, Radiator Support, Rear Quarters, Front and Rear Valance Panels, New Hood, Headlight Door
Assembly, and Trim, Tail light Chrome, New Bumpers, Hood Hinges.
The old paint on the car was taken off using the razor blade technique to protect the metal instead of using a DA
to remove the paint so that it kept the body lines straight and did not give it the wave down the sides look you
sometimes get from a DA sander. The body prep and paint was done by a Professional Paint Shop and was done right.
The paint is Beautiful Bright Red Base/Clear that was color sanded and buffed to make it very slick with a great
shine. The White C Stripe really gives the car Great Eye Appeal and matches the beautiful Parchment interior.
It has all New Rubber Seals at the Doors, Windows and Trunk area.

sounds right, it's very responsive and pulls strong! It's a Great Street Engine.

Ford's new Focus RS hatches hot and heads for America

Tue, Feb 3 2015

The hot hatch market is heating up, and heating up fast. What you see here is Ford's new challenger for pocket-rocket supremacy, the third iteration of the breed and the 30th model to wear the Rallye Sport designation. But perhaps best of all, it will be the first time Ford will offer a new Focus RS in America. Following yesterday's leak, the latest Ford Focus RS is now ready to step out into the light and light up its tires. Answering the call is the same 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbo four as you'd find in the new Mustang, but upgraded with a new low-inertia twin-scroll turbocharger, larger compressor and intercooler, freer-flowing intake, large-bore dual-pipe exhaust with electronically controlled valve and upgraded internal components. The result is a 6,500-rpm redline (closer to that of Ford's atmospheric performance engines) and an output quoted as "well in excess of 315 horsepower" – which is already 5 more than the EcoBoost Mustang and a good 63 more than the existing Focus ST. Power is transmitted to the tarmac through a new performance-focused all-wheel drive system with torque vectoring that can send as much as 70 percent of available twist to the rear wheels (and as much as 100 percent between them). The system works in tandem with the brake-based torque vectoring system and stability control, and will even divert torque to the outside rear wheel under cornering to keep it flat and under control while reducing understeer. Those still suspicious of dual-clutch gearboxes will also be pleased to read that Ford has stuck with a conventional six-speed manual. We'll reserve judgement on the inclusion of the electric power steering until we get a chance to drive it, though. Of course the small team of global Ford Performance engineers who developed the new Focus RS Â– and the Gymkhana legend Ken Block who consulted on the project Â– didn't just tinker with the powertrain and leave it at that. The suspension features stiffer spring rates, bushings and anti-roll bars than the Focus ST, augmented by two-mode switchable dampers. 19-inch alloys wear Michelin Pilot Super Sport rubber, with optional Pilot Sport Cup 2 semi-slicks for track-day enthusiasts. Ford has yet to detail the brakes on its new hot hatch, but you can bet they've been upgraded as well.

Ford owns Automotive Loyalty Awards, Audi and Subaru are king of conquests

Thu, 23 Jan 2014

Customers are a commodity in the automotive industry, and like any other commodity, automakers trade them back and forth. Only nobody wants to give up their customers - just to keep the ones they have and try to attract others.
That's what the Polk Automotive Loyalty Awards are all about. Every year the industry research body names the automakers, brands and models that manage to keep their customers coming back for more - and attract buyers to switch from other makes. Ford usually does pretty well, but this year it rose above even its own track record.
Not only did Dearborn win the Overall Loyalty to Manufacturer award, but also the Overall Loyalty to Make. Ford also took the African American category, and the F-150 was named the top full-size half-ton pickup in customer loyalty. Ford COO Mark Fields (pictured above) accepted the awards and gave the keynote address at the awards ceremony.

Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.
