1971 Ford Mustang Boss 351 on 2040-cars
Derrick City, Pennsylvania, United States
Just email me at: adrienneaffils@britishtalent.org .
My Yellow Boss 351 is up for sale. This is one of the Boss 351's that was at Hershey this year. This is the very
nice restored car with LOTS of NOS stuff. The following is a list of some of the NOS stuff:
bumpers,
body decals
hood pins
door handle
weatherstripping (where do you find that these days)
front spoiler (yes NOS spoiler)
And more stuff.
This is a nicely optioned car (not super optioned) but it has the options that most people put on cars that didn't
have it. Take a look at the Marti report. It came with spoilers, and it came with Magnum 500. It still has
it's original Ford Magnums on it that are in great shape. Actually it still has lots of it's original parts
because they were in great shape. Also it came with essential power steering (I had one without PS and it was
tough steering unless you were just going straight for a 1/4 mile!)
It has original floors, doors, quarters....but it has NOS front fenders and hood. Has about 65k miles on it. Is
it flawless? No. The paint looks great (so everyone tells me) but the paint was never rubbed out so it still has
a little of that factory finish it had in 1971. But the NOS weatherstripping just makes the doors close
effortlessly.
This car was built to be beautiful and to truly have a Boss 351 feel. The original engine has been redone. Since
it was low mileage and everything mic'ed up well, it has the original pistons. It has a new cam ground to the
original specification. Heads were redone with harden seats, crank done, bearings.....The original carb was
rebuilt, as was the original distributor. Rebuilt water pump. Original intake and exhaust manifolds. The engine
is stock, stock, stock, just like it came. Yet, when we finished breaking in the motor on the dyno, it pulled
360HP! (I have the dyno sheet).

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds
Thu, 15 Aug 2013The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.
Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks
Fri, 19 Sep 2014It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.
2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown
Wed, 09 Apr 2014Ford has made an art of deeper-than-normal midlife updates since the 2010 Fusion, a strategy that has allowed it to keep models looking fresher in showrooms for longer without needing full redesigns. Instead of slight touchups to light fixtures, new paint colors and perhaps new wheel patterns, Ford has been digging deeper, with significant sheetmetal changes and very different front-end looks, along with an increased emphasis on new in-car technologies to keep models vibrant. Other automakers are following this trend, and Ford itself is continuing on the path with this new 2015 Focus Sedan.
There's a handsome new SE Sport Package that includes a firmer touring suspension, modest body kit and 17-inch wheels.
We first saw this sleek Aston Martin-like nose fitted to a Focus at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but Ford only showed the new look on the five-door hatchback - this is the first appearance of the sedan, which will bow at next week's New York Auto Show. The front end treatment is the same, with a new hood, new headlamps incorporating LED accents, a different grille shape and a completely revised lower fascia that does away with the 2014 model's controversial triangle-shaped corners and gaping intakes. The rear gets a new two-piece, laser-brazed trunk lid with new taillamps, but the overall look is quite similar to last year's car. In any case, the refreshed look brings the Focus sedan more in line with the design of Ford's other recently reworked cars, including the Fusion and Fiesta.
