1969 Mustang Mach 1 in it's original Raven Black exterior and black interior. Have owned the car for a couple of
years and like others it's time to make space and time for the other Mustangs and Camaro's I own. I will break
down the car in sections so it's easier to read:
Exterior: Paint is very nice with a mile deep shine as you can see in the pictures. Car still retains it's
original quarters, doors, fenders, front valance, rear tail panel and roof. I'm sure hood has been changed since
it is a ram air hood. Floor was replaced with a one piece floor due to the glue in windows leaking over the
decades and keeping the carpet wet. Floors rusted from the inside out. Underside is very detailed out and is in
the factory type red primer. NO RUST on this car. Hood has a small dimple under the trim ring for the ram air but
you can see it if you look hard enough. Otherwise, no scratches or dings on the car.
Drivetrain: As stated, all numbers matching. Engine, tranny, rearend still have all their factory tags on them,
engine and tranny have vin stamped on them as well. Car runs great and has a lot of get up and go between 2nd and
3rd gear. Engine is powered by Edelbrock E street EFI and Sump kit and flips on with the turn of the key every
time. Factory power steering and power disc brakes have been added to the car as well. Ram Air set up uses the
original bottom part of the air cleaner base which gives it the original look. Not the fiberglass bases that make
it stick up way to high. Exhaust is flowmasters that exit through the original dual tips in the rear. Wheels and
tires are new and only have a couple hundred miles on them.
Interior: Interior is pretty much all new and has been restored over the last two years. Fold down rear seat has
been added. Clock and map light work. Has vintage air a/c that blows nice and cold. Has modern radio that looks
old but you can use IPod and stuff like that with it. Also has tablet witch shows all your internals of the
engine. Interior is covered with dynamat from the firewall to the gas tank and makes for a much quitter ride.
Rear seat is original. Only piece missing is the rear panel that goes above the trap door.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.
