1970 Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Tres Pinos, California, United States
If you have more questions or want more details please email : millicentraugust@gmx.us . I am selling my 1970 Boss 302. It is a real G code Boss 302. It has been for sale several times by different
dealers. I was too busy to sell it my self and had two separate dealers take it on consignment. They all assured me
they could sell it and then proceeded to price it too high (one had it at $86k and the 2nd had it at $77k). I told
them the price was too high but they didn't believe me. It is appraised at $59k. The reason for the lower price on
this beautifully restored Boss is that it does not have the numbers matching engine. It is a correct year Boss 302
engine but not the numbers matching that it came with. The transmission & rear end are the correct numbers matching
items.
A little history on my Boss. I have owned this for four years. It was a "barn find" out of Washington State. The
3rd owner (I am the 4th owner) had the engine rebuilt. Less than a month after the engine was completed, he passed
away. His widow parked the car in their garage and left it there for 7 years. We believe the block was swapped with
the current block when it was rebuilt. Unfortunately the wife does not know and the shop that did the rebuild is
not sure. The engine runs very strong and it is a joy to drive. It has been driven aprx 1,500 miles since rebuilt.
When I received the car the wife, it was rough and typical shape for a car that has sat for 7 years. The interior
was in need of restoration, the clutch needed replacement and the repaint by a previous owner was not correct and
flaking off. We took it down to bare metal and repainted it to the high gloss it now has. All original decals were
replaced and the bumpers & trim was all repaired and re-chromed.
The distributor was updated to electronic ignition. Original factory power steering was added. A non-functioning
rev-limiter was installed. The shaker hood was added by a previous owner. The original radio was updated to a new
radio that has the look of an older radio but has newer features including Ipod input.
It is an amazing car that is what I would call a higher end driver, that will provide years of fun for the new
owner. Every time I drive it, it draws a crowd. It has been entered into 3 car shows and won 4 trophies, including
the San Diego Mustangs by the Bay show where there was several hundred Mustangs entered.
It is time for me to move on

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Ford Focus PHEV on the way?
Tue, Jan 21 2014A refreshed Ford Focus is in the works and that means a few details are leaking out. Spy shots from last month indicated the Focus will have a gaping grille just like its "One Ford" global C-segment comrade, the Fiesta. While Ford is being quiet about it, the Focus could also be getting an "Energi" option, joining the C-Max Energi and Fusion Energi in Ford's plug-in hybrid family. The Focus will likely use technology originated in the C-Max Energi that combines a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor capable of a 20-mile range, according to Autoexpress. The pure electric Focus is expected to stay in the lineup despite its slow sales; its price range should be similar to what's on the market now. The third-generation Focus looked good enough to become the top-selling nameplate in the world in 2012. Some exterior changes to look for in the Euro-spec model at the Geneva Motor Show in March include a reshaped hood, front wing endplate and rear bumper. Interior spy shots have hinted at an updated dashboard design and a simplified, less cluttered control panel with updated climate controls. Under the hood, there are quite a few power options rumored to be available - a gasoline EcoBoost with up to 123 horsepower and two turbo-diesel TDCI options, a 1.6-liter or 2.0-liter mills that would produce between 94 hp and 161 hp. Then there are new 1.5-liter diesel and 1.5-liter EcoBoost gasoline variants that meet regulations in China, Brazil and Russia.
Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang
Thu, 24 Oct 2013A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.
