up for auction is a real 1970 ford mustang mach1 and not a clone.first off let me say that the entire car will need gone over and restored because it has been sitting in a garage since about the early 1980's.the car was a texas car that moved to kentucky at some time in its life and thats where i got it, and had it shipped here from. i will try to describe the car as accurately as i can.first off the major parts of any mustang that are usually rusted and rotted out are not rotted on this car as i will list.all the frame rails both front and back and both sides are not rotted and need nothing done to them.one torque box needs a patch put on it but the rest are very nice.the quarter panels are also very nice originals that need very little done to them.the inside of the trunk is also very nice with no patches or rot showing.the passenger door needs little work.the drivers door has a rust hole in the bottom rear corner and a dent in it so i would just put on a new skin.the door frame is in good shape so it can be used over.the trunk lid has rust and a hole in the corner so it will also need replaced.the floor pans have some rust and holes and also a piece cut out where i think someone wanted to put a 4 speed in but never did,i would replace the floor with a one piece complete floor just to make it look perfect and a one piece is much easier to do than putting in sections.all the front framework and rad support is in great shape there is no rot where the front bumper bolts on as most have, there is not even a rot hole under the battery tray where they all rot.the nuts pulled through the rear aprons for the hood hinges so they will need changed the old ones were correctly removed by taking out the spot welds and temporary ones were put in just so the car doesnt shift when transporting it.the drivers side shock tower had a hole cut in it to get to the grease fittings and the wrap around part was welded solid on both sides for extra support.you can change these if you want when changing the rear aprons.fenders are not all rotted out but do have dings and dents so i would just replace them anyway. other rust that i can find that needs repaired is some around the windshield lip,roof and cowl panel.the hood had a hole cut in it for air and a aftermarket scoop put on it as so many cars did in that era.the wheels and tires were also changed and now has huge 50 series in the rear and 60 series in the front.the engine transmission and rear end are as far as i can tell the original ones from the car.i cant find any serial numbers stamped in anything but all the driveline parts are dated less than 90 days before the car was finished.as a matter of fact all the major engine parts were made in a week.engine block 9h13 intake 9h14 heads 9h9 and 9h11 definitely all original to this engine.the engine is a 351 cleveland factory 4 barrel with 4 barrel heads.i removed the engine and transmission and removed the intake and heads to check the condition of the engine.it seems to be all original and i dont think it was ever taken apart before me.the speedometer reads 85,069 miles and the title says 85,000 miles on it and i truly believe these are original miles.engine needs rebuilt from sitting just like the rest of the car.i cant possibly describe every single part of this car as this description is already getting pretty long so if you have any questions about anything just e-mail me.i am including a copy of the marti report in the listing so you can check out all the info on the car.i have to sell it.just e-mail me with any questions at all that you might have.i encourage anyone who lives close to come and check out the car in person,or have someone come check it out for you.

Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.
Weekly Recap: Diesel scandal continues to fuel VW's woes
Sat, Oct 3 2015Volkswagen's woes continued this week when it was delisted from the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and stripped of awards. Senators are also lining up to advocate for criminal and civil action against the automaker, and its consumer reputation is in tatters. Put simply, it's been another rough period for VW. Despite this, the company eked out a sales gain of less than one percent in September, though that was well behind the overall market's performance. Sister brand Audi, which sells a diesel A3, was less affected, posting a 16-percent gain in September. Revelations that Volkswagen rigged millions of diesel-powered cars around the world didn't surface until September 18, so the full sales impact of the ongoing scandal won't likely be felt until October. Meanwhile, VW's image continues to take a beating, and an AutoPacific survey found only one in 14 vehicle owners have a positive opinion of the company. Before the scandal broke, three-quarters of respondents had a positive view of VW. The survey also found 64 percent don't trust Volkswagen, though the same number believe other companies are or may also be using cheating devices to pass emissions tests. "The reputation of diesels has been severely damaged, at least for the short term," Ed Kim, AutoPacific's vice president of industry analysis, said in a statement. Despite the lingering malaise, experts believe VW will recover, just as Toyota and General Motors eventually emerged from their own high-profile controversies. "Consumers have proven through numerous recalls that they are resilient and quickly return to their buying habits," Kim said. OTHER NEWS & NOTES Mazda to reveal sports car concept in Tokyo Mazda will bring a curvy sports car concept to the Tokyo Motor Show in October. The automaker is being especially coy with the details, only releasing the dark teaser shot that you see to the right and a cryptic statement that suggests the concept "condense[s] Mazda's entire history of sports-car development into a single model." Immediately, speculation abounded this is an RX-7 and RX-8 successor, though Mazda didn't specify what engine the concept will have. Reportedly, the company is still working on rotary engines. Mazda will have a Cosmo Sport 110S on its stand in Tokyo, which pioneered rotary technology in 1967. Read into that what you will.
