What is the fastest appreciating Mustang of all? The Fox body cars, especially the 1987-1993 5.0 cars with 5 speed manual transmissions, as they are the rarest and most affordable of all. The Fox body cars are now enjoying the "renaissance" of their lives, with values skyrocketing, and parts suppliers running short of original OEM parts for repairs and restorations. Right now,the best segment of the Mustang hobby to be in, is the manufacturing of Fox body resto parts! WHY? The demand is out of this world!
If you missed the meteoric rise of the 65-73 prices and are now priced out of the market, GET INTO THIS CAR NOW! If you ever wanted a rare car, this one is for you! If you ever wanted a factory Hot Rod, this car is for you! If you ever wanted a RARE factory red Mustang, this car is for you!
The color on this car is Vibrant Red, a specific color for the Feature Cars of 1992. You will not see this color on any other Fox Mustang from the factory! Contrasted with White Leather Seats and top, these cars demanded way over sticker price when sold new. Loaded with All the options from Ford, they stickered nearly as high as a Corvette! Some forward thinking Richie-riches bought them for their collections, to be hidden away and enjoyed only for their beauty. Not this one! It has been lovingly enjoyed for 87065 actual miles by me and previous owners, and mildly modified with Ford factory Racing parts: Factory long-tube headers,a 3:73 rear end gear ratio (Very Quick!), Ford Explorer Intake manifold (lots of torque), Hurst 5 Speed shifter (original also comes with the car), and true dual Marauder style exhaust with the Factory polished tips. Catalytic converters are still in place. The photos show it all!...
The body panels are all original, and have the factory VIN stickers on each panel applied by the UAW workers in June 1992. Showing no signs of repaint, it is starting to shed a little clear coat on the right rear 1/4 panel. But painting it is out of the question for me...it's too nice all over, and it's only original once!!
The tires have approximately 1000 miles on them, and still look new with no wear. Brakes are good, engine is as strong as the day it was new, no smoking or noises, and a very small,light leak on the right side of the oil pan where the gasket is a little weak. The transmission shifts perfectly, all 5 gears are strong and smooth. The A/C does NOT blow cold, all parts are present and intact, it has leaked down over the years and needs recharging, and the apparent leak found and fixed. The top is great, with no tears, and the plastic rear window is perfect. It does need a good cleaning, as white shows everything!
All lighting works correctly, Non-factory stereo is great, windows, locks,and power mirrors all work correctly. Cruise control works, power top works, but could use a small amount of adjusting, as I am a perfectionist! Don't get me wrong, it goes up and down as it should, but a convertible top guy could make it close without it making a squeak! Time is my problem, as I am out of town so much.
What does it need?
It has a pin-hole exhaust leak on the passenger side header, and could be easily repaired by swapping out the headers back to the factory originals included in the auction, or the exhaust shop could weld up the hole in minutes.
The rear end gear, as stated is a 3:73, which makes the speedometer read 10 MPH fast at all speeds. In other words,at 45, it shows you are going 55. It could be fixed by any speed shop with a lift for about 50 bucks, but I haven't been able to take it in,as I am out of town a lot.
I mentioned the A/C earlier,it needs a recharge and a leak fixed, but it's all there. But I never ride with the top down and the A/C on, do you?
And last, YOU!
Take a look, one of these just went to almost 12k and didn't sell! You can drive mine home today for $7500!

Autoblog Technology of the Year Award Special | Autoblog Podcast #758
Thu, Dec 1 2022This episode of the Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore, Road Test Editor Zac Palmer and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. The trio begin by discussing the 2022 Technology of the Year award. Ford's Onboard Scales and Smart Hitch hauling/towing tech as tested in the F-150 Lightning won this year. Why the Ford won, how testing went down and Ford's competition — including the GMC Hummer EV and Genesis GV60 — are discussed. After diving through the Technology of the Year award testing, the three take on this week's news. A mysterious vehicle based on the Corvette (that isn't a Corvette) is supposedly on its way. Audi is giving us "Performance" versions of the RS 6 Avant and RS 7 Sportback. Plus, we discuss a recent study that provides data for the 10 longest lasting vehicles on the road today. After the news, the crew dive into the cars they've been driving this week. Greg's been behind the wheel of a Nissan Pathfinder, while Jeremy and Zac have been driving some plug-in hybrids, including the Lexus NX 450h+ and Autoblog's long-term BMW 330e xDrive.

Texas plumber shocked his old Ford F-250 is now in terrorists' hands [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Do you ever wonder what the a owner is doing with your vehicle after you trade it in? Mark Oberholtzer of Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City, TX, has no need to imagine, but it's probably his worst nightmare. That's because an image of his old Ford F-250 is now on Twitter as a gun platform in the Syrian Civil War. While the image only appeared recently, Oberholtzer traded the truck in last November. Somehow since then the F-250 made its way from Texas to Syria. According to a report from television station WHOU, the dealer that took the trade said the pickup immediately went to auction. Unfortunately, along the whole route no one ever took Mark-1 Plumbing's name and phone number off the door. So when the image went up on Twitter, everyone knew whom the Ford previously belonged to. The plumbing company makes it abundantly clear that this whole bizarre situation is simply a coincidence, and it has absolutely no ties to the conflict in Syria. However, that isn't preventing people from phoning the business with angry calls and threats. Things are so bad that Oberholtzer keeps the phones unplugged for relief. Scroll down to watch a video of the guy's flabbergasted reaction to finding out what his F-250 is doing now. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford Escort returns... as a concept
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Ford is kickin' it old school at the Shanghai Motor Show for 2013 with a new Escort Concept - "a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design" as we said in our initial preview of the small C-segment sedan. Or, as Ford puts it, "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Potato, potahto...
It's an interesting amalgam of design notes with Ford's recent and stylish hexagonal grille up front, flanked by some pretty busy LED light clusters and chrome-trimmed air intakes at the lower extremities of the fascia, but the Escort Concept is not altogether unattractive. Besides its external appearance, we really don't have much information to report - Ford has not yet hinted at what may be powering this little machine, but we'd expect something with four cylinders and less that 2.0 liters of displacement sending a modest number of horses to the front tires.
It probably goes without saying, but we don't expect to see this Escort make its way to the United States, since we already have the Focus and the Fiesta battling it out in the econobox segment. That said, it's very likely to spawn a production model that will roll out here in China and in other developing market where multiple C-segment entries are becoming increasingly common. Check out our high-res image gallery of live images above, and let us know what you think of the car's styling, then scroll down below for the official press release.
