This is a numbers matching, authentic Mach I. I am just the 3rd owner of this is a 56,000 original mile car. It was originally purchased locally, and cared for meticulously since day one. Extremely rare color combo, and in my humble opinion, the nicest. Wimbeldon white, with red leather. It has the 302, C6 automatic combo, and both of them perform FLAWLESSLY. I can't emphasize that enough. One pump, she fires right up on high idle. Another tap, and it idles down perfectly. When it's warm, one touch of the ignition, and it starts like it's fuel injected. Just had a complete tune-up. Plugs, points, wires, cap and rotor, oil change, etc. Belts and hoses all recent as well. Without any exaggeration, this car runs, shifts, and drives PERFECT. There is ZERO slop in the front end. Very tight, and tracks and stops perfectly straight, It has drums all around, and the shoes, wheel cylinders, and tires are all less than two years old. It is an absolute pleasure to drive, which makes it really hard to to sell. Only selling because I need cash to put down on a house, or I'd be keeping this car for sure. The car was painted about 5 years ago, and the paint looks FANTASTIC. It was a professional, bare metal, $8,000 job. No checking, scratches, or swill marks whatsoever. The pictures don't do it justice. There are a few little nicks here and there, and a few bubble spots, but otherwise perfect. I took pics of the flaws. A few really small ones on the corner of the hood, and a spot on the bottom rear panel, for which I have a new patch panel. It's only a small area in the black portion. The other side is mint. One other small one next to the deck lid. All the chrome and stainless trim is excellent. The chassis, frame and floors are GREAT, with the exception of the area around the driver's floor. A small portion of the driver's floor is soft, but I have a brand new floor pan. The most common issue with these uni-body Stangs is the frame in the same area, near the steering box. The previous owner was smart enough to recognize it, and had a piece of channel professionally welded under and over it, so that it would NEVER be a problem. I took a pic of this as well. This car is VERY structurally sound, and there are NO other soft spots. The floors, trunk, doors, and rockers are all rock solid. Inside, it's very nice. Seats look almost new, door panels are nice, and the dash is almost perfect. I say almost because there is one small spider-sized crack. Very easy repair. Everything works. Lights, gauges, radio, horn, heat, etc. Windows all go up and down smooth, and all the glass is perfect. No cracks, nicks, or clouding. Even the weather stripping is all nice. The headliner needs replacing, and I have a brand new one. I also have a brand new black carpet set, with factory Mustang inlays. The carpet in it now is ok, but I planned on installing the new floor pan, so new carpet seemed logical. I also have a complete new dual exhaust, and the correct rear valance with the dual cut-outs. Nothing wrong with the exhaust on it now, just wanted duals. All in all, this a VERY nice, VERY sharp Mach, that with just a little more TLC would be a stunning car. It only needs a few things, and a good detail. Don't let the fact that it's a small block fool you. It WILL lay down a patch of rubber, and set you back in your seat when it drops down into passing gear. Best of all, it gets nearly twice the gas mileage of a big block, which means more time cruising. This is a real auction, which means NO RESERVE. High bidder drives it home. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it ANYWHERE. If needed, I will help in any way I can with shipping. Only cash or certified checks, and paid in full within 5 days. If you aren't sure if you will have the money, DO NOT BID. I have zero tolerance for having my time wasted. That all said, bid with confidence. No dissapointments with this beauty, and my feedback speaks for itself. Any questions, feel free to call or text me anytime. My name is Jim, and my # is (585)261-6547.

I just want to add a few things. The body on this car is lazer-straight! All the body gaps are perfect, and the doors open and close perfectly. NO drop in them at all, as is common in these heavy doors. The interior is darker than the pics show. More of a blood red. I also have brand new door sill plates. In all, I have close to $1,000 on extra brand new parts going with the car. It has power steering, but not power brakes. Don't let the manual brakes discourage you. This car stops GREAT. This being a 302 car, the front end is lighter, and these cars are light to begin with. What the 302 loses in a few horses to the 351, it more than makes up for in handling, gas mileage, and reliablity. I've owned some 50 classic and muscle cars, most of them very nice, and this is the best driving one I've ever owned. It's really hard to find an old car that doesn't have some issue with the front end, brakes, steering, vibration, etc. This one has NONE. It literally drives like NEW.

Ford C-Max Commercial Brings Cadillac 'Poolside' Ad Down To Earth
Thu, Mar 27 2014If we had tried to predict the first video response to the controversial Poolside video for the Cadillac ELR, we would not have thought it would center on compost. But, hey, it's always nice to be reminded that the real world is sometimes better than fiction. Instead of the chic swagger of 'Poolside,' 'Anything Is Possible' is all about getting dirty. The new short in question is called Upside: Anything Is Possible and it promotes two things: Detroit Dirt and the Ford C-Max Energi. As in the ELR ad, Ford's plug-in C-Max only makes an appearance at the tail end of the spot, but instead of the chic swagger of Poolside, Anything Is Possible is all about getting dirty. The ad stars Pashon Murray, co-founder of Detroit Dirt, which takes natural waste from around Detroit, composts it into soil and then spreads that around "forgotten parcels" of Detroit to create urban farms. Detroit Dirt gets its bio-waste from a lot of sources, including the Detroit Zoological Society (all that herbivore manure has to go somewhere), Ford and General Motors, but this particular ad was the idea of Ford's PR agency, Team Detroit. It was a frenetic shoot, filmed with an LA-based director right after a big winter storm blew through Detroit, and Murray couldn't be happier with the result. "This was Ford Motor Company pushing my story, letting me tell the story that I believe in," Murray tells AutoblogGreen. "I get to help push this car and I get to tell my story." She says that the Team Detroit and Ford had to agree on the message, "from my understanding, [YouTube] is where they wanted to start, not where they wanted to finish." The ad is already getting a positive response on Twitter, so we won't be surprised if it shows up in more places soon. "It's not saying Ford is better than GM. It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." As Detroit Dirt has off-screen support from both GM and Ford, it's unsurprising to hear Murray say that the video "is not a rivalry thing." She notes that the ad agency Team Detroit came to her and offered to tell the Detroit Dirt story using the framework of the GM ad. "It's a parody on this commercial, but it's not saying Ford is better than GM," she said. "It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." What is that story? It's about urban farming, recovery and recycling. Murray tells us that for the last seven or eight years, she's been dedicated to sustainability.
Ring Brothers shows 1965-66 Mustang fastback carbon fiber body
Thu, 07 Nov 2013We covered one of Ring Brothers' more extreme SEMA builds yesterday, the De Tomaso Pantera-based ADRNLN, but if that well-executed but over-the-top Italian-American exotic is too much for you, then perhaps this Ring Brothers 1965 Ford Mustang fastback with a carbon-fiber body suits your tastes better.
What the performance-parts manufacturer is showcasing with the Mustang is the carbon-fiber body itself, which is fashioned around the 1965-66 fastback. It can be bought from the company and bonded to the skin and unibody as a do-it-yourself project, or you can take your Mustang to Ring Brothers and have the body installed there. The fenders, doors and quarter panels are two-inches wider than stock, and Ring Brothers offers a custom widebody chassis to those who want the complete package.
The show car looks sharp in person lowered on HRE wheels, and we appreciate the bare front end so we can see the supercharged V8 and front coilover suspension, though the details on those performance upgrades are slim. Also note the custom independent rear suspension setup at the rear.
