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!

California Man Reunited 33 Years Later With Thunderbird

Wed, Sep 3 2014

A California man was at a loss for words when he was reunited with his prized 1964 Ford Thunderbird on Tuesday, 33 years after it was stolen from a bar parking lot. Gary Chartrand could hardly believe how well his old Thunderbird held up in the last three decades. The odometer had only added about 1,000 miles from when he last saw the car back in the 1980s. "A few bumps and bruises but boy, not much changed," Chartrand told KOVR. Chartrand bought the car as a present to himself after finalizing his divorce from his wife of 10 years in 1981. It disappeared one night from the parking lot of a Sacramento bar where he was working. Police found Chartrand's car 750 miles north in Washington State. They have no leads on who might have stolen the classic car. Related Gallery Buying An Older Car: Five Things To Watch Out For

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."

Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track

Thu, 29 Aug 2013

The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
