1969 Ford Mustang Fastback 5.0 BOSS 94.7 WCSX Stone Soup Project
This is truly a one-of-a-kind, spirit-of-Detroit collector car. It was built for charity and raffled off by Detroit's Classic Rock Station 94.7 WCSX to benefit The Children's Miracle Network at Beaumont Hospital. All parts and labor were donated by industry leading companies. Based on the fable of "Stone Soup" - where everyone pitches in and you wind up with something wonderful - this project is a reflection of the automotive spirit and hard working nature of Detroit.
They started out with a special Dynacorn 1969 Mustang Fastback shell that was purchased by Ford Motor Company in 2009 and hung on display at SEMA in 2010. Roush donated a 2013 Roush Coyote 5.0RSC 600HP 302L Ford Racing BOSS and the project was set in motion. Dozens of automotive companies around the Detroit area contributed parts and labor to create a high performance vehicle with the very best components available on the market.

This car was highly publicized and sought after in the months leading up to the raffle. It was featured on display at every major 2012 car cruise in Detroit, including the Woodward Dream Cruise. Acknowledged by Bill Ford and Alan Mulally, this Mustang raised over $130,000 for its cause and raffle tickets were purchased by high profile Detroit celebrities such as Alice Cooper.
Here is a letter from Bill Ford about the Mustang:
LETTER FROM BILL FORD TO EVERYONE

Jim O'Brien
-------------
Dear Jim,
Wow! The photo you sent of the 575 hp Roush Supercharged '69 Mustang is stunning!
Congratulations to you and the entire WCSX crew behind the Stone Soup Project, as well as all the car enthusiasts, hobbyists, die hards and automotive suppliers who all came together to build this fabulous car from the shell up.
Pulling together for a great cause in this instance, the Children's Miracle Network at Beaumont Children's Hospital is one of the things that makes Detroit a great place to live, work and show our passion for cars. Good luck to all those who purchase raffle tickets in hopes of winning this latest creation from the Motor City!
Bill Ford

MY OWN WORDS:
This car has a remanufactured body made for Ford Motor Company in 2009 by Dycorn Inc., an industry leader in remanufacted classic car shells. This is not an original 1969 Ford Mustang body. Because of this, the car is titled by Michigan Secretary of State as a 2013 Assembled Vehicle.
This car is is basically a custom built race car with the body of a 1969 Mustang Fastback. It is absolutely stunnning to look at, and there is enough under the hood to put any regular manufactured sports car to shame. After driving this car for a few hours, I can say that its the fastest car I've ever been in or will be in my entire life, and I didnt even push it to its limits. Every single part used to make this car is used on race cars, not street cars. The person who buys this car is a getting a race car. The fuel pump hums and the supercharger whistles when its running. The suspension is so tight, you feel every bump and the tires grip the cement like glue. There is a governor that sets the max RPMs to about 5500, but this engine is designed to redline at least 7000. With a 6 speed manual trans, you can squeel the tires in every gear.
I have a professional appraisal from a local automobile author and historian "Top Hat" John Jendza, His appraisal of $65,000 is based on the price it would cost to buy all of the parts and components used to build the car. The Roush engine alone retails for approximately $18,000 and the Dynacorn body about $17,000. Factor in tens of thousands of dollars in labor to build it, and you're looking at a value of nearly $100,000 to reproduce.
This car is not for everyone and it is not perfect. But if you're looking to buy a brand new race car with super premium parts that looks like a classic muscle car, then this is the car for you!

Major automakers post mixed US June sales figures
Mon, Jul 3 2017General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV posted declines in US new vehicle sales for June on Monday, while major Japanese automakers reported stronger figures. Once again, demand for pickup trucks and crossovers offset a decline in sedan sales. Automakers' shares rose as overall industry sales still came in above Wall Street expectations. The US auto industry is bracing for a downturn after hitting a record 17.55 million new vehicles sold in 2016. Analysts had predicted that overall, US vehicle sales would fall in June for the fourth consecutive month. As the market has shown signs of cooling, automakers have hiked discounts and loosened lending terms. Car shopping website Edmunds said on Monday the average length of a car loan reached an all-time high of 69.3 months in June. "It's financially risky, leaving borrowers exposed to being upside down on their vehicles for a large chunk of their loans," said Jessica Caldwell, Edmunds' executive director of industry analysis. GM said its sales fell about 5 percent versus June 2016, but that the industry would see stronger sales in the second half of 2017 versus the first half. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." GM shares were up 2.4 percent in morning trading, while Ford rose 3.3 percent and FCA shares jumped 6 percent. "US total sales are moderating due to an industry-wide pullback in daily rental sales, but key US economic fundamentals clearly remain positive," said GM chief economist Mustafa Mohatarem. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." Ford said its sales for June were hit by lower fleet sales to rental agencies, businesses, and government entities, which fell 13.9 percent, while sales to consumers were flat. But it sold a record 406,464 SUVs in the first half of the year, with Explorer sales increasing 23 percent in June. And sales of the F-150 had their strongest June since 2001. On a media call, Ford executives said an initial read of automakers' sales figures indicated a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of around 17 million new vehicles for the month, which would be better than 16.6 million units analysts had predicted. FCA said June sales decreased 7 percent versus the same month a year earlier.
Ford idling Michigan Assembly Plant to trim Focus, C-Max supply
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford will be putting the brakes on production at its Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, MI, idling production during the weeks of October 28 and December 16. Ford is citing the first drop in US sales in 27 months, a 4.2-percent dip in September, as the impetus for trimming their supplies, according to Automotive News.
Ford's deft management of its supplies has been part of its success over the years, and seeing supplies of Focus and C-Max, the two vehicles built at MAP, rise from 58 and 108 days, respectively, to 71 and 122 days over the span of a month was apparently all that was need to justify the trimming. As AN points out, the rule of thumb for many automakers is to maintain a 60-day supply of vehicles.
"Ford has been focused on keeping their pricing in check. Their operating margin is in double digits. Nobody else is there and they're obviously very proud of that," Alan Baum, an auto analyst with Baum & Associates told AN. Keeping the supply chain operating smoothly and not increasing supplies too much is crucial to that healthy profit margin. After all, a large supply lowers prices ,which, in turn, cuts profit. So while this news might not be great for employees at MAP, who now have an extra two weeks of vacation time, it's far from a sign of problems in Dearborn. Quite the opposite, actually.
Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva
Sun, 24 Feb 2013We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
