I have this 1997 cobra up for auction.  It has the 4.6 dohc 4 valve, 5 speed. Mods are longtube headers, offroad Xpipe (previous owner welded headers to the offroad xpipe), SLP loudmouth mufflers, 4.10 gear, bbk cai, under drive pulleys, msd coils, short runner intake mod, IMRC delete, Hurst short throw shifter, adjustable clutch cable, sct X2 tuner, Blankenship tuned. Has been a best of 12.7x@107 mph in the 1/4 mile at London, Ky.  This car has been previously repaired from a front end collision approximately 10 years ago, this collision is the reason for the rebuilt title.  The car was hit in the front, the frame was pulled, the radiator support, both fenders, hood, front bumper were all replaced in this repair.  The unibody of the car still shows signs of the collision on the transmission tunnel area, but this didn't appear to affect anything as the car has been on the road for 10 years or so after the repair.  This car has been used as a weekend driver/toy during this time.  The body does need some alignments on the gaps, and the clear is peeling on the car.  All body panels and bumpers are nice, and the car has a brand new unpainted Saleen wing on it.  The rear taillights have been smoked, and look pretty decent this way on the black car.  
 
The two issues with the car that cause me to list it as a parts or project cars are...
1. The transmission broke a shifter fork on the last track outing for the previous owner, the tranny was pulled, the shifter fork was replaced, a brand new clutch was bought and it all needs reinstalled.
2. While the car was down, the previous owner sold the seats, (front and rear) out of the car in hopes of putting some racing seats in it, so right now it doesn't currently have any seats in it.  The rest of the interior is in it still, the airbags were replaced with regular mustang airbags.  The drivers door panel is hanging away from the door on the back edge, this door panel must have some clips broke? Everything else appears to be ok.
 
Clear Rebuilt title is in hand and ready to go with it.  No reserve on this auction, this car is for sale locally so I may end the auction at any time.  Can be seen in Whitesburg Ky, 41858

Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh

Sat, 26 Jul 2014

Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.

Ford recalling 830,000 vehicles to replace side door latches

Thu, Aug 4 2016

The Basics: Ford is conducting a recall for roughly 830,000 models. The affected vehicles include the 2013 to 2015 Ford C-Max, 2012 to 2015 Ford Focus, 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape, 2015 Lincoln MKC, 2015 Ford Mustang, and 2014 to 2016 Ford Transit Connect. The recall is focused primarily in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Georgia, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Oklahoma, Washington, and Oregon as the problem mostly affects cars in states with warm weather. The Problem: The pawl spring tab in the side door latch in the affected vehicles could break, preventing the door from latching and could even cause the door to open while driving. Injuries/Deaths: There is one reported injury and one reported accident. The Fix: Dealers will replace the affected cars' side door latches. If you own one: Reach out to your local Ford dealer to schedule a service.

Trump to meet with CEOs from Ford, GM, and FCA

Tue, Jan 24 2017

In the wake of his inauguration, President Donald Trump is set to meet with the CEOs of Ford, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles Tuesday morning to discuss jobs, the North American Free Trade Agreement, and potential tax cuts. Trump has been highly critical of American automakers for shipping jobs to Mexico and has threatened to impose heavy import fees on foreign-made vehicles. Trump has threatened to dissolve NAFTA in order to encourage automakers to manufacture cars in the US. Automotive News and Crain's Detroit Business are reporting that the group is set to discuss how to bring more auto industry jobs back to the US. Under NAFTA, many automakers, both foreign and domestic, have moved vehicle production out of the States to Mexico in order to cut costs. White House spokesperson Sean Spicer said Trump is looking forward to the meeting and discussing how to bring jobs back to America. Dismantling NAFTA would be a major blow to automakers. Trump blasted Ford during his campaign for manufacturing in Mexico, but FCA and GM also have factories south of the border. Earlier this month, Ford nixed plans for a $1.6 billion plant in Mexico, instead investing $700 million into an existing facility. At this year's Detroit Auto Show, the unspoken theme was America and American manufacturing. Expect the automakers to fight to keep NAFTA alive.
