1968 Mustang Gt 390 Coupe "only One Built" Barn Find Numbers Match on 2040-cars
Loveland, Colorado, United States
I found this mustang locally and I purchased it from the family of the person who ordered it new. It has been sitting in a garage for years. I have The Marti Report for the car Ford built 2 Black Jade GT 390 coupes in 1969 and Only one had a Vinyl Roof. This car is a numbers matching car. The Body of the car has very little rust, The Floors, frame rails, drop downs, shock towers, torque boxes, cowl, inners and outers. are all very nice. It needs some small patches on the front fenders and the rear quarters. It will be a very easy restoration jams trunk and hood are nice. it does have 2 small pin holes in the roof from the vinyl top. the chrome and trim are nice. The glass is all nice. The interior of the car is complete the headliner has no rips, The drivers seat has been redone but is cracked, I don't think the interior has been out of the car so Im betting that the build sheet is still in the car somewhere. The motor runs great no funny noise and the tranny shifts fine. It smoked a bit but got better as it ran a while I cleaned the fuel out of it and put a starter in it and it fired up. I drove it around the block but the tires are junk so that's as far as I went. It has power steering, bower disc brakes, 9" rearend. and I have the correct wheels with caps and rings for it that came on the car. Please ask any questions you have before bidding. I will answer quickly and honestly. The car is not cheap but the reserve is realistic please don't ask but if you make the right offer I may add a buy now. Check my feedback only bid if you want the car. I can help arrange shipping at buyers expense. Thanks and happy bidding On Apr-25-14 at 07:57:56 PDT, seller added the following information: This car does NOT have a salvage title, I accidentally put it in Wrong It has not had any accidents, flooding or theft, I have a clean Colorado title in hand If E-bay wont let me change it. Sorry for the mistake. |

Ford recalls 300,000 Crown Vics over lighting module
Wed, Dec 23 2015The Basics: Ford is recalling 312,814 units of the Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis sedans from the 2003-2005 model years. They were built at the St. Thomas Assembly Plant between Oct. 3, 2001, and Aug. 2, 2005. Ford says 296,004 of those units are located in the United States, with another 14,714 in Canada and 2,096 in Mexico. The Problem: The solder joints on the lighting control module could crack, depriving the headlamps of the power they need to light the way ahead. That could increase the risk of a crash, particularly at night and in other low-visibility situations. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports that it is aware of 11 accidents that resulted from the problem, leading to one injury described as "minor." The Fix: The manufacturer is instructing dealers to replace the entire lighting control module. If You Own One: Make sure your headlights are working before getting under way. If they're not, avoid driving under low-light conditions, including at night, in heavy precipitation, or in fog.

Radical RXC is a Mustang-hearted racecar for the road
Fri, May 30 2014Radical has been building fantastic open-cockpit racers and roadcars for years, for the track day enthusiast who wants a vehicle that looks like it could show up for a start at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The company's latest creation is the RXC, and while this coupe looks like a prototype racer, it's road legal in the UK and in some parts of the US. When testing a car this, um, radical, the first thought is likely to get it to the track for some big slides and wide open acceleration, but XCar Films takes the opposite approach in its latest video to learn how this racer fares on public roads. The version tested here is the standard RXC with the 3.7-liter V6 out of the Ford Mustang tuned to 350 horsepower with a seven-speed sequential gearbox; but Radical also offers the same engine with 380-hp, a 454-hp Ford EcoBoost 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6, or even a 500-hp V8. Even in the most basic guise, it's a handful to control in the wet, if this video is any indication. The cliche of a road-legal racecar is bandied around a lot in the motoring world, but it truly applies to the RXC. The only problem with seeing the RXC exclusively on the road is that it can never really open up and show its full potential. This racer is indeed chomping at the bit to rocket off into the horizon, but all those pesky road safety laws hold it back. Still, the video is a chance to get a better impression about this thoroughbred sports car. Scroll down to check it out. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a lean, mean, Z/28-fighting machine [w/video]
Mon, 17 Nov 2014If there's one thing you can count on, it's that the renewed rivalry between the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro will never, ever cease. For every version of Ford's pony car, there's an equally potent Chevrolet. And so with the debut of the Camaro Z/28 earlier this year, Ford has responded with a track-focused 'Stang of its own, resurrecting the Shelby GT350 name.
It looks to be a fine piece of work, this Mustang, with power coming from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V8 that will produce "more than 500 horsepower" and "above 400" pound-feet of torque. That grunt runs to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, and a Torsen limited-slip differential keeps everything in line.
But that's hardly the most impressive piece of the GT350 puzzle. Ford has increased the Mustang GT's chassis stiffness for duty here in the Shelby, and the coupe employs MagneRide damping which automatically adjusts based on road conditions and driver inputs. It's a first both for the Blue Oval and for the segment. And speaking of firsts, the GT350 uses a flat-plane crankshaft - something Ford has never included in a production V8 before.
