After 15 years of being hidden away in a Minnesota barn, this 1967 Mustang GT-A is once again experiencing life in the sunshine! Manufactured for one year only (1967) the GT-A was simply the Automatic Transmission version of the GT.  This one was ordered in Lime Gold with the Ivy Gold 2-tone vinyl interior.  It featured the 390 / 4bbl, power steering, power brakes, AM Radio, Console, C-6 Automatic Transmission, Courtesy Light Group and Tinted Glass.  All the lights work, the radio works, the wipers, heater, speedo/odo and AM Radio all work. While she's not perfect, I believe this car is an ideal candidate for restoration.  The body is remarkably straight and the car is virtually complete. The floor pans, torque boxes and shock towers are clean, dry and solid.  The interior is in remarkably good condition...I believe the front bucket seats have been re-covered in original color vinyl and the back seat, door panels, headliner and carpeting are all original.  


I found this long-hidden gem in April of 2013.  After loading the car onto a trailer and bringing her home, I removed the gas tank, had it acid-washed, installed a new gas gauge sending unit, flushed the fuel lines from the tank to the carburetor, installed a new fuel filter and had it running in 15 minutes.  After a few minutes of idling in neutral, the transmission began to work and within an hour or so, I was able to drive the car around the block.  We've since changed oil and filter, done a full tune-up and replaced a brake line, a power steering hose and the starter just to be able to drive it a bit.

The Good:  The car is very straight and nearly complete.  It has minimal rust (for a 50 year old car) and the structural components are very solid.  It is driveable (wouldn't attempt a cross-country trek with her quite yet) and looks great from 50 feet!  All the lights work, the radio, wipers, speedo/odo and heater work, it has good (radial) tires and, best of all, it was originally built with the most desirable engine available...the 390 4bbl.  Because it smelled of moth balls and mouse poop, I removed the seats, removed the carpet, pressure washed the carpet, thoroughly dried it and re-assembled everything.  It is now reasonably pleasant to sit in!  The sheet metal is remarkably straight as are the bumpers and chrome trim...also, all the glass is in great shape.  Based on the overall condition of the car and the fact that the odometer works, I believe that the actual mileage on the car is only 108,121 (obviously, I have no way to prove it).


The Reality:  While the car might impress your neighbors just sitting in your driveway, it really is a total project.  There is bondo in the rocker panels and around the drivers-side rear wheel well and the car has been re-painted.  There is some cancer in the driver's side door jamb as well as small holes in one floor pan and a 3"-4" hole through the floor of the trunk.  The original kick-panels and sill plates are missing.  The headliner has a hole (mice) above the passengers visor and the original carpet is faded.  The steering is loose, the brake light is on (brakes work but require a lot of leg), and the transplanted 302 engine is only running on 7 cylinders (#4 Cylinder has no compression).  

I want you to be completely confident when bidding on this car...if you have ANY questions or concerns, or simply want to arrange a test-drive or inspection, call me (Jon) at 701 840 8038 and I'll do my best to answer your questions.

We will accommodate you or your shipper in any way we can to get the car to you...please CHECK MY FEEDBACK and bid with confidence...NO DISAPPOINTMENTS HERE!!

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.

A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
