Up for sale is my 2005 Mustang GT premium convertible. I've owned here since 2009. Dyno tuned by AED in Cameron Park. Their shop was recently featured in an article in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. Dynoed her when I had first gotten the Procharger with the Diablosport tune that came with the kit. At the time she was only seeing 5lbs of boost because of the exhaust, intake, and headers. Put down 398hp at 5PSI. Decided to get an SCT tuner, to be able to tune better. Also got a smaller pulley to get to 10PSI, and laid down 478rhwp. But the injectors were maxed out, and the discussion of E85 was brought up. I ordered a set of 80lb Ford Racing injectors, and a stainless steel fuel filter. First pull on gas, 491rwhp. Then switched over to E85. Tuned her to 523.2rwhp and 513.9ftlbs at only 22 degrees of timing! Then the fuel pump maxed out. Luckily a friend of mine had a GT500 setup, so I bought that from him. Haven't had the time to install it yet. Shaun that tuned her, said that "with another 5-6 degrees, you'd see maybe 40-60 more horses". Knowing the limitations of the stock blocks, I decided to run her on the gas tune, and not push my luck and end up blowing her to pieces. The SCT tuner comes preloaded with the E85 tune, and gas tune. Also, another tune, that'll help you run the fule pum, in case you want to empty the tank to switch to E85. Just disconnect the feed at the rail, and turn the key. If I were to keep it, the next step would be a forged rotating assembly, and more BOOOST!!!! She drives just like a stock GT, until you plant the right foot to the floor! Even with the stiff SPEC clutch, my wife has no problem driving it.

In the time that I've had her, I have spent a small fortune on upgrades and modifications. Started with suspension and brake upgrades late 2011. Then it went downhill from there! Supercharger, clutch, GT500 conversion, etc. She has Bilstein shocks and struts. Ford Racing 1" lowering springs, and swaybars. Adjustable in the front. DBA gold rotors, and Hawk pads - stops on a dime! Spec stage 3+ clutch. Procharger 1FP214-SCI HO kit. C&L intake. GT500 throttle body. Edelbrock headers. Granatelli 3" stainless steel exhaust. Dual oil separators - 1 on each side. Remote dual oil filter setup, and oil cooler.  (Increased the capacity by 3qts) Plus a TON of other bits and pieces! 

I had an in dash DVD/GPS unit in her. But the unit started acting up, so I installed the stock Shaker 1000 system. I had also gotten upgraded door speakers, Rockford Fosgate 6x8, and Pyramid subs. Since there was an aftermarket headunit in there, she is wired front to back. Battery in the trunk, and 4 channels (2 sets of RCA) run. Also remote power signal, signal for backup camera, camera mounted in the bumper, and video cable for it. Lastly, 2 sets of speaker wires, to hook up for the front speakers, if an amp is trunk mounted. Right now it's running off the stock Shaker amps. Sounds awesome! When I put the stock unit back in, I bought an aftermarket harness to enable me to plug in my ipod/iphone. When I did, the radio resets the time every time I start the car. Comes back to 12:00. Not sure if that's the adapter, or the radio. Everything works fine on it, just strange that it resets.

Last fall I sold off all the stock front pieces, and did a GT500 conversion. Found a used Trufiber knockoff hood locally. Then sourced the rest online. With that install, I got custom stripes cut. Running down the sides along the doors - custom cutout that reads SUPERCHARGED, then CORNFED GT. Up the fender, (Ford Racing logo) curves on the hood, Procharger logo, etc. and down the center. I got enough material cut, that the next owner can continue the stripes down on the bumper, and also for the trunk if he/she chooses. Also painted the inside of the hood, coated with flat clear.

She is coming up on 61K. She had 30K when I bought her. She's been to Boston, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas twice, and Seattle. She shows normal wear for her age. 2 dings that I can think of. 1 on the passenger fender, by the stripe. About an inch long. A bicycle fell over in the garage, and the handlebar knicked the GT. The other on the drivers side rear fender, about a dime size. Tried to take a picture of it, but couldn't get my camera to focus right. Paint is fine there. I try to stay on top of rock chips with a touch up brush.

Comes with the stock intake manifold and stock throttle body. Also available the stock rear taillights. When I had the exhaust installed, also made catless downpipes with V-bands. 5 minute swap!

On Jul-29-13 at 02:02:26 PDT, seller added the following information:

Forgot a couple of things. When I had the clutch installed, I also got a new master cylinder, slave cylinder, and an upgraded stainless steel braided line. This helps with reducing flex in the line, common in the OEM plastic line under high line pressure. Also, the Procharger was installed at at 56K miles. Haven't even had a chance to do the 6000 mile oil change in the headunit. So it's practically brand new! I still have the remaining bottles of oil that came with the kit from Procharger that'll come with the car. Also, I have installed red LED lights for the driver and passenger footwells. Can be turned on with a switch in the console. Discretely lights up the floor. Handy at night if you drop something. Or out cruising, gives it a certain ambiance!

Ford F-Series Super Duty earns Truck of Texas award

Wed, Oct 12 2016

Texans love their pickup trucks, which you already knew. That means the Texas Auto Writers Association and its "Truck of Texas" award is a big deal. And the latest trophy goes to the 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty. The pickup truck managed to snag TAWA's award at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo. The award marks the 13th time Ford's F-Series has been named the pickup king of the Lone Star State. Roughly 70 journalists converged outside at the Longhorn River Ranch, just outside of Austin, TX, for the 23rd annual Texas Truck Rodeo where a host of Ford's vehicles won awards. In addition to the F-Series Super Duty being named the "Truck of Texas," the 2017 Ford Super Duty won the Heavy Duty Pickup Truck award, while the 2017 Ford F-150 with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine won the Best Powertrain award. The journalists also awarded Ford for having the "Truck Line of Texas." Ford wasn't the only winner at the Texas Truck Rodeo, as Nissan brought home five awards, including one for the 2017 Titan in the fullsize pickup category and one for the Armada in the SUV segment. Ram also won a few accolades with its trucks. The 2017 Ram 1500 won for being the most luxurious pickup truck, while the 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon won the off-road pickup truck award. Last year, TAWA named the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the Truck of Texas, but Ford's all-new F-Series Super Duty managed to keep the Japanese automaker's full-size offering at bay. For the 2017 model, Ford placed aluminum body panels into the F-Series Super Duty's body, which not only shed weight, but also make the truck stronger. Scroll down to see the entire list of TAWA's winners from the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo.

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.

2014 Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Ford Mustang

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

If you're a fan of Ford racing history, a Mustang worshiper or even just an avid follower of our yearly SEMA coverage, you may have heard the back story on the Race Red Mustang you see above. Back in 1964, Holman & Moody was tapped by the English Alan Mann Racing Team to race-prep three Mustangs for competition in the incredibly arduous 4,000-mile Tour de France Automobile rally. Competing mainly against Jaguar MkII saloons over 10 days and 17 stages, the H&M Mustangs took the top two places in the Touring class and the first-ever racing win for Ford's pony car.
Though the history of that first Mustang win hasn't been incredibly well known here in the States, the subsequent decades have seen plenty of racy versions of the car come and go. Last year at the SEMA show, we covered the brief debut of this living tribute to that piece of racing lore, the Holman & Moody 50th Anniversary TdF Mustang.
This limited-edition Mustang represents a kind of new venture for H&M, as the legendary racing shop has spent the last few decades earning its keep largely by restoring vintage racing cars. The urge to get back into the world of Ford and Mustang was powerful, however, what with the car's 50th anniversary looming and the current generation of 'Stang just about out the door.
