1989 Mustang 5.0 LX Convertible Red with a black top and red interior.  This is a 25th Anniversary model, it does have the original dash anniversary badge.  The interior is original and most of the paint is as well.  It looks like the red bellow the Black trim has been done at some time due to rock chips and the passenger side fender since it looks more like base coat clear there.  The underside is exceptionally clean, there is no rust that I have come across in the last 8 years of owning it.  I have done a lot of work on the car and been through about every square inch of the car.  When it was bought, I gutted the inside cleaning as I went.  The paint has been buffed out and cleaned up very well unfortunately an owner prior to me didn't know how to use the buffer and burned through the edges on the fender/hood areas and trunk quarter areas.  It still looks great for original 25 year old paint with 103k miles.  This car is not a perfect show car, but it is a great cruiser and will still do well at your local car show.  I bought it with 102k on it and it now has 103k, needless to say I have spent more time building it up to the way it is than I have driving it 8 years and about 1,000 miles.  I have probably spent close to $10,000 by the time I add up all of the receipts.  My last thing that I wanted to do was upgrade the braking system while keeping it 4 lug since I have the set of Pony's on it that I redid when I bought it.  Here is a list of most of what has been done to the car since I have owned it, there is the general maintainace items as well.

  • Flowmaster Force II Exhaust System with Polished Stainless Tips
  • BBK Cat X-Pipe with new o2 Sensors
  • Edelbrock Equal Length Ceramic coated Shorty Headers
  • Stage 8 Locking Header bolts
  • BBK 65MM Throttle Body and EGR Spacer
  • C&L MAF Sensor and Intake Tube
  • FRPP Cold Air Intake
  • FRPP Strut Tower Brace
  • KYB Front Struts and Rear Shocks
  • Rebuilt Steering Rack
  • Prothane Red Engine and Transmission Mounts
  • Refinished 16" Pony Wheels and General Exclaim UHP Tires
  • FRPP Spark Plug Wires, new plugs, Accell Cap & Rotor
  • New Radiator hoses and 180 deg Thermostat
  • New Black Pinpoint (Style used on new cars) Convertible Top
  • Convertible Top Cylinder and system bled
  • New Ford Battery Cables
  • New Headlight, turn signal and parking light kit
  • Reflective Mustang Bumper inlays and custom Mustang 3rd brake light overlay

If you want to take a look at the car please feel free to get in touch with me.  I do have it listed locally and have the right to end the auction early if it is sold prior to the end of the auction.  This is a binding contract. 

Most of the mustang fox problems have been taken care of, it is ready to drive.  My wife and I were talking about it today and we both agreed that it is a great car that we need to let go since we just don't have time to drive it.  If you are interested bid to win it is a clean car, don't waste my time if you're here screwing around.

TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.
Warning: There is explicit, not-safe-for-work language in the video below.

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.
