It has the correct RUG-AE2 4 Speed Toploader Manual Transmission and 3.50 Traction-Lok Rear Axle. It is painted in the correct Candy Apple Red exterior paint with the black-out hood treatment. It has the black knit interior, which is in very nice shape. The original Philco AM Radio is present and works properly. The dash pad has recently been replaced with a new Ford Tooling dash pad and is perfect. All the gauges work properly. The odometer reads 14,297. It is believed to be 114,297 on the body but all the driving components are new or refurbished. The Cobra Jet engine has been professionally rebuilt within the last two months.

The original Space Saver Spare is still present in the trunk with the original, unused, compressed air can. This is a three-owner car. According to the Deluxe Marti Report (which will be included with the sale) this Mustang is 1 of 9 with the options it possesses. The gentleman I bought it from had the car passed down to him by his father who bought it from the original owner. According to the gentleman’s father the original owner bought the car in February of 1969. He brought the car in for a service later that year and the dealership had a Boss 429 on the sales floor. The original owner loved the hood style of the boss 429 and within the next few years he replaced the original Q Code hood with a Boss 429 hood. When I purchased the car I originally had planned on putting the original hood back on the car because the car has so many original parts. After working on the car and seeing how nice the Boss 429 hood looked and how well it was painted I decided to keep the hood on the car as a nod to the original owner’s style. Being that both hood scoops are non-functional as there is no Ram Air set up on the Q Code model I decided to leave well enough alone. I took the time as I was restoring the engine bay and rebuilding the motor to photograph all the numbers and date codes on the engine parts to document the motors originality. As you can tell from the date codes the Engine / Heads / Intake they were all manufactured within 10 days of each other in January of 1969. As stated earlier the partial VIN number is stamped on the back of the block and it is also present on the driver’s side head (the stamping is very faint on the head but it is there). The body and paint on this car is very nice. The paint has some very minor flaws that are consistent with any vehicle that is driven and not treated like a trailer queen. It is easily an 8 out of 10 paint job and this car will turn heads anywhere you go. The current average market on these 1969 Mach 1 428 Cobra Jets is approximately $52,000 according to Hagerty, which is based on current auction results that have been obtained over the past few months.

Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.
Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.

2013 Shelby GT350
Fri, 31 May 2013Shelby is a name as synonymous with the Ford Mustang as marshmallows are with campfires. But unlike the short-lived sugary confection that is prepared on a stick, the late Carroll Shelby's name on the placard means added performance and exclusivity. Launched in 1965, the automaker's celebrated early cars were in production for a limited run - today, a mint concours-quality 1965 Shelby GT350 can sell for upwards of $350,000.
To coincide with the 45th anniversary of the original Shelby GT350, Shelby American reintroduced the GT350 in 2011. Like the original, it was only offered in white with blue stripes. Customers were offered a choice between naturally aspirated (440 horsepower) and two levels of supercharging (525 horsepower with a warranty or 624 horsepower without). The manufacturer calls the GT350 a "post-title" package, a term that means it starts out life as a stock Mustang and is modified outside Ford's factory (this is in contrast to the Shelby GT500, which is a standard Ford production car).
As the GT350 enters its third year, Shelby has made several changes. Mechanically, Wilwood brakes replace Baer units and Recaro seats and a tinted glass roof are on the options list. Cosmetically, the vehicle is now offered in most of the Blue Oval's factory colors, new multispoke wheels are available in Satin Black or Bright Silver Metallic finish, and customers can choose between Satin Black, Silver or Gloss White stripes (or Azure Blue Metallic on Performance White or Ingot Silver). Aesthetically, the look of the car has also changed somewhat - keen eyes will note that it actually appears more 'stock' than it did last year.
