Up for sale is my 1993 Ford Mustang Coupe Black/Black with 73,4xx original miles.  This is a well documented, two-owner stock coupe.  I am the second adult owner of this car and have owned it for the past three years. The car has been fully detailed and is ready to go to it's new owner. I know there are a lot of sellers that are advertising their coupes only to have second thoughts after they see all of the interest. That is not the case here, she is ready to go to a new owner.

Please click on the links for pictures and videos:

**After i started the listing I noticed that the vehicle history report shows "3 calculated owners", which is incorrect. The NY registration event was when the original owner moved in with family in NY. I am sure the title had to be given to NY DMV when the car was registered in NY, that is the reason it's incorrectly stating "3 Owners". I am the second owner, no doubt.

My asking price is $14,800.00, and that includes all of the original documentation and the many parts listed or pictured below. The asking price is a lot less than what i have put into this car, but then again i never expected to get a full return. I appreciate the consideration and I know that you will enjoy owning this car and you should not have to replace anything mechanical, i have replaced or repaired most everything..

The car is located about 15 minutes from the Charlotte, NC airport. Please, call me with any questions, or to set up a date and time to come see it in person. I can and will provide additional pictures and videos to interested parties. My name is Dan and I can be reached on my cell @ 856-371-7513. 
I will only accept cash or a cashiers check from a local bank where I can verify the funds prior to releasing the title or car. The title is free and clear.I will only hold the car if a deposit is made.

 If you need to fly in to inspect the car, or want to hire a certified inspector to confirm the condition prior to the sale, i will be more than happy to work with you and will make myself available. Also, if you need or want to hire a transport company to pick up the car, I will also make myself available so the car can be picked up, but you will of course be responsible for any transport costs and insurance.


A few extras/bonuses that made this car more appealing to me, and will to the new owner: 
Only one previous owner, you will be the third. The original window sticker, Plastic floor mats from the dealer, plastic keys, spare set of keys, the id card for the locking lug nut, two audio tapes, the Ford 1993 Mustang brochure, the Mustang’s owner’s manual with the Car dealership sales cards and warranty card. I also have the unopened Child seat locking clip, warranty booklet and three other factory books that came with the car. A little weird, but I saved an Arby’s and Dove Soap coupon that I found under the seats when I vacuumed the car when i first took ownership of it, they are dated with a 1997 expiration date. I also have a folder that is stacked with many receipts.

A little history on the car... This mustang was originally purchased from Mountain View Ford in Chattanooga, TN, and then lived most of its life in GA. The original owner was an older gentleman that drove the car to work each day, as most of us would have done back then. A few years before it was offered for sale, the original owner moved in with his family and at that time decided to put the car into storage. The car was offered for sale and I quickly purchased it and had it shipped to me in S.C. where it has remained for the past three years.

As noted above I am the second owner; I bought it almost three years ago and have enjoyed restoring and driving it when time and weather allowed. This car has never been raced and has never had any performance modifications to the engine. The only changes to the car are a complete paint restoration, Flowmaster mufflers (original owner installed) and I had the AOD swapped with a WC T5 (Included in the sale is the original AOD with pedal assembly, shifter, cooler lines and torque converter; everything you need to convert it back to original factory specs) Everything else on this car, was and is in its stock form, not even a CAI was installed on this car.

The car drives like new and I would not hesitate to drive it across the country. Everything works as it should, no issues at all. There are no accidents that I know of and none were found by the vehicle history. When the car was stripped for paint, the painter found no bondo or repairs to the body, all VIN tags are present. The motor has no performance work done to it at all, it’s all original other than tune-ups..etc.   The paint, being three years old is beautiful, although there are a few tiny stone chips that are only visible if you look hard enough and would not be noticeable on any color paint except for black paint.. 

 The interior is near perfect, no stains, fading or tears on the seats, headliner or rug, not anywhere. The frame and underside has no rust and is very clean. All of the electrics work as they should, all bulbs light as they should. The air conditioning works, as does the heat. The airbag is fully functional. I recently replaced the airbag diagnostic monitor do to the backup power supply being depleted after all these years..

The paint is not original as mentioned; it had crazing on the bumpers, hood and roof when i bought it. The car had to be repainted; it wasn't an option for me to keep it in that state, even though the majority of the original paint could have been refinished to look "decent", I decided to get it all done at the same time so it would match. I selected the most reputable paint shop in the Charlotte area to media blast and restore the paint to its original state. I paid $4,567.02 for the paint work (receipts will be provided). The paint work has a fully transferable lifetime warranty, and it’s listed right on the PO I will provide to the buyer. The paint shop that did the paint work on the car has been in business since the 80’s and does full restorations, paint and custom fabrications on very expensive imports. The paint looks amazing, and anyone that has owned a black car knows that it’s tough to make a black car presentable in full sun. 

Below are a few of the notable maintenance and/or work that was done over the years. This is not a complete list. Again, I have a folder full of receipts on this car.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.

Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.

Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...
