Here for your consideration is a 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra coupe. I have just had the 4cam 4.6 engine completely rebuilt at a cost of $4000.00 dollars. I bought this car with a rod knocking. Upon teardown it was discovered that number 4 and 8 rods had spun the bearings in the rods themselves. The rods in these engines cannot be resized, so I replaced both with new Ford rods. The block was then bored 0.020" with torque plates (which Ford did not do originally) and new 0.020" pistons installed. The cranked had to be turned 0.010" on both the rods and mains. The entire rotating assembly was rebalanced at that point. ARP studs were used in the block instead of the inferior factory bolts. ARP rod bolts were installed instead of the torque/yield bolts that were original. The cams were absolutely flawless, so I reused them. New chain tensioners were installed and a complete valve job done on the heads. I installed a new dual friction clutch when the engine was reinstalled. The car has been driven 400 miles so far since the rebuild. It runs and drives as new, nice tight suspension, ice cold A/C, everything works except the odometer. I checked the bottom side and everything is correct, so it must be in the head unit. Speedo works fine. This car is all stock, no mods at all, even original exhaust. This car has always been in North Carolina so there is no corrosion issues. The leather on the steering wheel is showing some wear and the bolster on the drivers seat needs to be recovered, as seen in the pictures. No cracks on the dash or door panels. This car should give thousands of trouble free miles with the work that has just been done. While preparing the car to return to the road, all the brakes have been gone through. This Cobra has never been hit and I believe it is wearing it's original black paint. It also has the Mach 460 sound system with AM/FM, CD, Cassette. If you are looking for a factory high performance Mustang that has not been "flogged" yet, then this is your car. If you drive it, you will love it. Car is sold as is. You are welcome any time during the auction to personally inspect and drive the car. Buyer is responsible for transporting the car to it's new home. I need payment within 2 weeks of auction's end.

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
2014 Ford Fiesta gets fuel economy bump to 41 mpg
Fri, 07 Jun 2013The 2014 Ford Fiesta is in showrooms now with refreshed styling and new performance ST model, but it's what isn't yet available that should help the Fiesta stand out from the growing crowd of subcompacts. Aside from the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost model coming later this year, Ford recently told us that a new Fiesta SFE trim level is on the way that should put the updated Fiesta at the top of its class for fuel economy.
The new Fiesta SFE will hit an estimated 41 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission. The current listing on fueleconomy.gov shows the 2014 Fiesta getting up to 29 mpg city and 39 highway, but the SFE will get minor aero tuning and a recalibrated engine controller to help bump the highway figure past rivals like the Chevrolet Sonic and Nissan Versa - both of which top out at 40-mpg highway. There's still no word as to when the small 1.0-liter EcoBoost will show in the US, but Ford has indicated that engine's fuel economy isn't expected to be released until October.
