1968 Ford Mustang Gt on 2040-cars
Bogota, New Jersey, United States
This 1968 Mustang GT is a very rare and hard to find Fastback. These do not come up for sale to often in this
highly sought after configuration. In addition to its verified 1 of 1 build, this car retains a large amount of
its originality, only being repainted in the 1980's and never restored!
Exterior:
The highland green paint shows very well for being over 35+ years old. There is only 1 minor imperfection in the
hood, which is a small ding, noted in the detailed pictures. The white sidewall tires are brand new, including the
spare.
Interior:
The interior is like new and everything works as it should. All of the belts and shoulder harness retain the
factory tags. All the factory stamps on the HVAC and under-dash components are visible. The top of the dash has
some minor bubbling.
Trunk:
The factory spare wheel and jack are in place. The full factory quarters are visible with the red oxide primer.
The rear quarters retain the factory sound deadening. During the repaint, it appears that about 4-6" of the lower
quarters were replaced, as they always rust in this spot. The original tar mat is still in place on top of the gas
tank. There is also a 1969 sealed fire extinguisher for car shows. The matching mustang bag in the truck is
outfitted with all replacement bulbs, belts, wires, etc.
Engine:
At some point, the carb and heads were removed. It now has a Holley carb and later 302 stamped heads. I have the
original Autolite carb and the original 302 4V heads. The engine bay is very clean and detailed. It is outfitted
with many of the factory components and parts throughout, including hoses, clamps, belts, decals, etc.
Undercarriage:
The underside was coated with a light undercoating many years ago. You can still clearly see it has the original
floors and no work was done. If you peel some of the coating off, the original red oxide shows through. The
factory rear and trans still have the tags in place. The correct transverse exhaust is in place.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
Ford F-150 King Ranch celebrates 'history and authenticity' for 2015 [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014What's life like on an authentic Texas ranch? We honestly have no idea, having never lived on such a ranch, but we imagine it requires lots of hard work, grit and determination to keep all 825,000 acres - that's larger than the state of Rhode Island - of the King Ranch in Texas under control. Indeed, a total of 350 vehicles, all of which come from Ford, we're told, are currently in use by the ranch. No wonder, then, that the collaboration between Ford and King Ranch has lasted for 15 successful years.
For 2015, in celebration of that 15th anniversary, Ford is debuting three new King Ranch models today at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The most significant is the 2015 F-150 King Ranch, which, naturally, will add unique interior and exterior bits and pieces to the new aluminum-intensive F-Series pickup. Color choices will consist of Caribou, Bronze Fire, Guard and Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, with a range of two-tones to go along with a monochromatic scheme in Caribou. Inside, a bespoke King Ranch interior will be swathed in Premium Mesa Brown leather.
Joining the F-150 King Ranch on dealership floors later this year will be 2015 King Ranch editions of the Super Duty pickup and Expedition fullsize SUV, all of which will offer similar levels of content. Scroll down for more details and two videos from Ford, and be sure to check out the high-res image gallery above, which was shot by the official State Photographer of Texas, Wyman Meinzer.
