Ford Mustang Mach 1 on 2040-cars
Chantilly, Virginia, United States
This is a solid project car, runs, drives, stops, steers and can be driven on the street while you fix up. This is an all original 1969 Mach 1. Car needs paint, body, interior work. Sold "as is". I bought to restore, don't have time. Car is missing its trim rings on wheels. Dash pad cracked and faded. Seats all good except drivers its foam worn,torn and foam can be seen. Its rusty here and there. Worst rust right side trunk floor pan is shot. Fender aprons rusted at overlap as usual. Floors and underneath are good in my opinion. Engine is original, trans is original . Minor power steering leak, small oil leak. I found in a barn, replaced gas tank, sender, cleaned lines, replaced fuel pump, carb, and she runs great. Very strong runner, shifts nice. Primer on car is from misc. sanding and covering up bare metal to keep from rusting. Black out hood treatment faded off, I have started to reapply but haven't finished. Rim blow works, disk brakes, 9", m code 351 4 valve. Have the Marti report. Sold as is. No warranty. This is a very solid all original all ford all they way it left factory solid project. Wimbledon white with red/burgundy interior. Non working am still in it. 3 speed FMX . Please understand this is not a restored car with the real car hidden below paint and bodywork. This is a unrestored original car, I can impress enough this needs restored but it doesn't have any hidden stuff going on. The lower quarters are rusted, both doors corners are slightly rusted "no holes in doors, rockers and fenders are rust free ford fenders that came on car, same with doors . Roof solid, floors nice except trunk floor . I have put a new tank in and even had the factory original carb rebuilt by a local rebuilder that goes with car. I just added a holley performance carb with electric choke. I also have the factory air cleaner assembly. Door glasses are out, both are good tinted door glass but they became loose in regulator so I pulled them out for safe keeping. Turn signals in scoop work, all lights work, all interior lights work except dash lights. Radio and dash lights no not work assume its a fuse, but don't know for sure. Tires are as new but showing light dry rot, bf goodrich t/a's. Car is kept inside. I will not deliver. I will not allow car to leave until payment is made in full in cash, or cashiers check or wire transfer to my bank and my bank confirms funds are there. $500.00 deposit to be paid through pay pal within 48 hours of close of auction. This is a great car, basket case Mach 1 mustangs are easy and cheap to buy. Totally restored examples are unaffordable for most. The reserve on this car is very favorable when you look at both ends of the spectrum. Not very often can you find one that hasn't been messed with and is all factory original as this one. One more disclosure this is a project car, it needs work, every part needs attention, but every part is there and every part is Ford. Car is located in Central Virginia, just outside Richmond. If you want to call to ask a question my name is Tom 804-572-0954

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
