This Mustang has been very well taken care of. Previous owner was an older gentleman in his 60's, babied the car and kept it garaged. Never driven in winter, therefore, no rust. It does have a few dings and a few chips in the paint. The right front corner of the bumper has some paint chipping but overall its in very good condition for a 21 year old car. The top is original, has a couple of stress cracks where it folds when its down but it has absolutely zero leaks. I have replaced several pieces of weatherstripping, new KYB shocks, new Eibach lowering springs, new subframe connectors, new stage 2 clutch and cable, new billet short throw shifter. New Pypes stainless x-pipe, new SLP loudmouth stainless exhaust, new battery, msd cap, ford racing wires, BBK shorty headers, electric fan and last but certainly not least, a Paxton Novi 2000 supercharger! The interior is nearly perfect, carpet is great, seats are great, door panels and dash are great. Everything works as it should, including the power top, power windows, powers locks, cruise control and power lumbar seats. I cannot verify if the A/C is working at this time, but I do know it still has R-12 refrigerant in the system as it is holding pressure. The headlights are crystal clear too, unlike most plastic headlights. It has great tires with lots of tread left, and all trim and top is still very black, not faded. The original top boot is in the trunk and looks brand new. This car is very fast and very fun to drive. The supercharger really makes this thing pull hard and spin the tires for as long as you want, or at least til you redline it. The exhaust is very loud when you floor it, but its a sweet open header sound that makes your heart race. Yet when driving normally around town its not that bad at all. You can still hear the radio at highway speeds which is very good considering it is a convertible. I've invested a lot of time and money into this car, just under 10k over the winter just to get it ready for spring and summer top down fun, but I need to make room for a car for my son and this definitely is not a car for a kid. I may consider partial trades for a small nice fuel efficient vehicle for my son along with some cash or a nice Jeep wrangler with a 6 cylinder only. I may consider a diesel truck as well, doesn't hurt to ask, just no junk, rust buckets or project vehicles, quads, boats or motorcycles. Any questions, just ask by text or call. Matthew 319-423-1555, and please no joyrides or tire kickers. I will take you for a ride but don't expect to come and have me hand over the keys so you can take it around the block.

Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
Ford reveals Fiesta ST race car, points at road ahead for bigger things in Global RallyCross
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST doesn't go on sale until this summer, but fans of Global RallyCross will be able to catch the car in action before then. Announced ahead of the Chicago Auto Show, the Fiesta ST will be the car run by Ford GRC teams this season, and the model on display in Chicago will be the racecar built by Swedish tuner OlsbergsMSE driven by Tanner Foust and Brian Deegan. Ken Block and his newly renamed Hoonigan Racing Division will also be competing in the Fiesta ST.
The 2013 GRC season has not been announced yet, but the venues will also include the summer X Games events in Brazil, Spain, Germany and, of course, Los Angeles. Ford announced that it will be the sole automotive sponsor of this year's summer X Games, and it will be looking to bring home a gold medal this year after Block placed silver last year.
In other Ken Block- and Ford-related news, another Chicago debut will be a tuned Focus ST called the TrackSTer project. Built in cooperation with Block, Ford and automotive tuner fifteen52, the TrackSTer will get plenty of styling, performance and handling upgrades. Some of the add-ons include a performance exhaust and short-throw shifter from Ford Racing, a rebuilt engine, upgraded components such as the limited-slip differential, intercooler, engine controller and clutch as well as upgraded brakes.
Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake
Thu, 19 Sep 2013History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.
