For sale is my black 1983 Mustang GT Hatchback H.O.
Title in hand.
I purchased the car just to do some TLC work and clean her up. She is a rot free car with solid floors and frame. Almost no rust what so ever. She doesn't leak anything, including the sunroof. She has 41k miles on the clock, but I believe it's rolled over just like most cars her age. However looking at the car makes you realize she was garage kept and well taken car of by the previous owners and myself. Runs and drives great. 

The car has:
Original drivetrain
302 4V V8 H.O.
5-Spd Manual
8.8 rear and swap - new fluid w/ 3.27 gears
Hurst shifter
Ford Racing Shorty Headers w/ Flowmaster mufflers
Ford Racing cams - mild ones, gives a great sound!
Edelbrock intake and 4 barrel carb
Aftermarket wheels/tires (255 front, 275 rear) rear tires are new

The interior is the original color: black/red combo with the sport seats. I believe they are the Recaro seat option. 
I replaced the carpet and did some small tlc work. Radio and all the lights work. 

The only small bad things with the car are:
-Small hole in drivers seat
-Rear hole in the bumper/fender. The marks cause the car to have a "reconstructed title," however it doesn't  affect the car whatsoever.
-Heater fan doesn't turn on, haven't looked into it
-Forgot the mention one last thing. The oil and engine temp gauges in the dash do not work, normal thing to go bad in these cars. However, on  the A pillar are two matching gauges that work and also dim with the interior lights. Car holds a nice 45-50psi and engine temp stays right at  normal on a hot day. 

I'm asking $5,500 or best offer. Willing to negotiate and work with buyer on transportation. 

NOTE: Yes this is my first listing under this account. However, I am NOT new to eBay. My family used a joint account for years and built up a nice stack of reviews. I decided however to create my account and continue on alone. 

My number is 412-478 one nine seven six if you have any questions. Calls or texts are fine.

Aluminum lightweighting does, in fact, save fuel

Mon, Apr 14 2014

When the best-selling US truck sheds the equivalent weight of three football fullbacks by shifting to aluminum, folks start paying attention. Oak Ridge National Laboratory took a closer look at whether the reduced fuel consumption from a lighter aluminum body makes up for the fact that producing aluminum is far more energy intensive than steel. And the results of the study are pretty encouraging. In a nutshell, the energy needed to produce a vehicle's raw materials accounts for about 10 percent of a typical vehicle's carbon footprint during its total lifecycle, and that number is up from six percent because of advancements in fuel economy (fuel use is down to about 68 percent of total emissions from about 75 percent). Still, even with that higher material-extraction share, the fuel-efficiency gains from aluminum compared to steel will offset the additional vehicle-extraction energy in just 12,000 miles of driving, according to the study. That means that, from an environmental standpoint, aluminum vehicles are playing with the house's money after just one year on the road. Aluminum-sheet construction got topical real quickly earlier this year when Ford said the 2015 F-150 pickup truck would go to a 93-percent aluminum body construction. In addition to aluminum being less corrosive than steel, that change caused the F-150 to shed 700 pounds from its curb weight. And it looks like the Explorer and Expedition SUVs may go on an aluminum diet next. Take a look at SAE International's synopsis of the Oak Ridge Lab's study below. Life Cycle Energy and Environmental Assessment of Aluminum-Intensive Vehicle Design Advanced lightweight materials are increasingly being incorporated into new vehicle designs by automakers to enhance performance and assist in complying with increasing requirements of corporate average fuel economy standards. To assess the primary energy and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) implications of vehicle designs utilizing these materials, this study examines the potential life cycle impacts of two lightweight material alternative vehicle designs, i.e., steel and aluminum of a typical passenger vehicle operated today in North America. LCA for three common alternative lightweight vehicle designs are evaluated: current production ("Baseline"), an advanced high strength steel and aluminum design ("LWSV"), and an aluminum-intensive design (AIV).

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.
