This car is being re-listed due to a listing error on my part. Everything has been corrected and now I'm re-listing.

All photos were taken 01/30/13 with exception of the main photo which was taken a month ago.

This car has been garage kept and un-driven since 2003!

You are looking at a very nice 1989 Mustang 5.0 hatch. I've pulled most of the dents(I think), replaced the clutch and fuel filter. Did a full tune up, completely gutted the interior. Power washed everything, sanded and primed all rust spots.

In reference to rust, there is some, but none that couldn't be repaired very easily. There is only one small quarter sized spot on the hatch the has rusted through. Every other spot was just very minor surface rust. The underside of the car is in great condition. The shorty headers I installed in the 90s and the rest is catted 2.5" with flowmasters which are newer. Aside from some misc. bolt ons the car is 100% stock.

Everything else I'm going to list also took place in 1998. BBK progressive rate springs / alignment. Front struts and rear shocks, passenger side pinion arm. Weiand high flow water pump with a three core radiator. Under drive pulleys and a k&n filter(recently cleaned and oiled). The transmission was rebuilt in 1998 as well, but has a syncro issue that was present from the day it came back from the shop.

It is only noticeable with a down shift to first. If you shift to second then first you never notice it. The clutch and fly wheel are new with zero miles.

It runs perfectly, but needs headlight bulbs and a battery. I have a battery that we can start the car with, but it is not included. It will also need a new speedo cable as I broke the old one replacing the clutch. The tires are old, but have 3/4 tread and the brakes are the same. I drive the car around the neighborhood to keep it fresh.

I would not hesitate to drive this car 50 miles, but further than that you should have a plan. The car HAS been sitting in a garage for the last 10 years.

I have a clear NC title in hand.

Extra side marker lights and an electric fan will also be included.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
