Beautiful 1971 Mustang convertible. Very low mileage. This is a California car purchased 18 years ago and brought to the Pacific Northwest. Second owner of this car with only 55,119 original miles. This car has spent the majority of its life stored under its cover in a large shop over on the Olympic Peninsula. Originally purchased from the first original owner for my brother who passed shortly after the purchase. The car was locked away for years and recently came out of storage. This car is totally original and numbers matching. 302 engine and C-4 Automatic Transmission. It received a fresh paint job back to the original Tampico Red color several years ago. This was done only because the car had been waxed so many times that the paint was getting thin on the top corners of the fenders. It received a new convertible top in the original white color at the same time. It also received a new trunk pan and all new weather striping. The engine bay has not even been molested. It is all original. This is a very low option car with the only options being the power top and power steering. It even has the original working AM radio. The car drives great and everything functions as it should. It is a real attention getter. The tires are like new as well. The only things I am aware of that it needs to be perfect is it has a small crack in the center of the dash pad which is hard to see or find, it has a slight hesitation upon acceleration and could probably use a carb rebuild. This is I am sure due to sitting in storage for so many years. It also has a small exhaust leak somewhere in the exhaust system noted by the louder than normal sound. If I was going to keep the car I would probably replace the seat covers. They are original and while they have no rips or tears they have a somewhat worn appearance. As I stated the engine bay has not been molested, painted, etc. so you can see it is all original. To be a show car it could be detailed out. I have noted any defects I have seen. I reccomend you inspect any vehicle prior to purchase and will facilitate an inspection by you or your agent.

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet
Wed, Oct 7 2015Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.
Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.
Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns
Wed, 22 May 2013Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
