I am being transferred out of state and have three other Mustangs to deal with, so this one goes. This is being offered as a great parts source car (a donor for your project) or if so, make yours the donor and build on top of this one. Since I was raised to be honest, it must be stated upfront that this car has many, many new parts, there are a couple of areas that need disclosing:
1. The front end steering/suspension probably needs lower control arms, ball joints replaced. (The front end tie rods are new).
2. The engine is a 1979 351W with the electronic ignition components in use (computer module is new). However, this engine has started to display serious sounds that may even be failing main bearings on the crank shaft, along with some smoke now. This is the engine that came with the car so its history is unknown but I do feel it is on the way to necessary rebuild.
3. Windshild wipers don't work -- as switch needs replacing.
So, I make no warranties and am offering the car as a parts car. Please do not ask me to part single parts. I will only ignore such requests. This car is offered as a whole.
This car stated life in the New York area as a base Copper/Gold Grande with a 302 automatic.
Body condition: Good.
Details: Hood has one ding in it, the front quarters are from other cars. Underside is solid with usual surface rust but no holes or rot. Rear truck lid has a ding in one corner.
The following are the many new parts:
Most of the interior is new (repro in most cases). The back seat upholstry has a blemish on the lower seat.
Includes Kenwood KDC-HD450U radio inside glove box.
New front tie rods.
New tires less than 200 miles use) and new vintage wheels
New tail lights lens, and new lens for all parking lights
The entire rear end (8 inch) was swapped with a indentical better condition rear end from another 71 Mustang
New shocks all around, new rear leaf springs, new mufflers.
Front wheels have new disk brake rotors and wheel bearings.
Door handles, locks are new.
The original Ford AM/FM radio works.
New TCI C4 transmission with less than 100 miles on it. The drive shaft is new.
Tac and instrutment cluster added by previous owner.
On the engine: Recent battery, new altenator, power steering pump, belts, water pump, engine mounts, and harmonic balancer. New rebuilt autolite 2 Barrel carb., spark wires.
Again, this is being offered as a PARTS Car. The tires and wheels alone are worth the starting price.
Please do not ask me to part single parts. I will ignore all such requests.

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]
Mon, 04 Feb 2013The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.
First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."
