Hello and thanks for checking out this nice Mustang.

This car is a recent acquisition for me and I found a fastback that I want more so this one has to go. This is a very nice original solid car with very little signs of any rust. I will do my best to point out any flaws I have found. I realize it is a worry to buy a car sight unseen online, so I am free to answer any and all questions about the car. I highly recommend coming to look at the car or have someone local look at it but I know that is not always possible so you can be assured that I will provide you all the information you need to make a good decision.

I have a very reasonable reserve and I am open to any offers that are reasonable, just look at something equivalent in shape. I have seen several that are not as nice for more. If it goes the distance I may remove the reserve if it meets what I have in it.

I have owned several Mustangs and I would never buy a rust bucket, or a dog. Every car I buy I ask myself “would I keep it” that is why I could not pass up this one. It is a very solid original car. I will list the items I know about the car along with the allowed pictures. I will have a Photobucket that has over 100 pics. Email me for the link, since eBays crappy system will not let us post a link here.

Please be serious about owning a Mustang and ask questions and call me and we can make this a good experience for all.

Engine:

It has a very clean excellent running 6 cylinder 200cid. I am sure that is original to the car, though I am not sure but I can check the numbers if that matters to you. I looks as if the starter is newer as well as the carburetor. It starts up nicely and runs smooth with no weird noises or smoke. I was told that it was rebuilt but I am not sure and do not have documentation. No major oil leaks or water leaks and it does not overheat at all. It has some chrome dress up items on the engine and it looks great. I have all the original parts in the trunk.

Transmission:

It has an automatic transmission that shifts well and the shifter is factory tight. I will make sure that the transmission gets a service before I sell it. Drive shaft is tight and makes no weird noises at all.

Running Gear:

You can decode the vin if you like, but it has 2.83:1 axle ratio. It works great! No noise or leaks. It has manual steering and it works well and the car drives great down the road. The tires are at least 90% or better and they are in good shape. They were just dirty and I cleaned up the whitewalls. It has the factory hubcaps that are in good shape.

Brakes:

The car has 4 drum brakes with newer parts. I will have them inspected and you will be comfortable knowing that they will work well. It has power brakes with a new booster and master cyl.

Interior:

The interior is in excellent shape. All original, code D4 Parchment/Emberglo (maroon). The carpet is very nice, the headliner is perfect as is the rest of the interior. The seats are all original and are in good condition. It has some nice sheepskin covers that cover the front seats and I looked under the covers and the condition is good, there is a couple of small flaws. The dash is nice, but has the wave on the passenger side but I would leave it alone. All the gauges seem to work all the windows work well and it has a remote driver’s mirror. The passenger lock does not work with the key, not sure why. The steering wheel has a couple of cracks in it but it is the original. Lights all work as do the signals. Door panels are good as is the glass. No cracks, there may be a few scratches but you have to be looking for them.

Exterior:

This car has a near perfect solid exterior! The factory color is Emberglo Metallic code V. It seems to have one re-paint of a maroon color ( I was told it was a Mustang color) and it is pretty nice. (Driver quality) Looks excellent from 10 feet or so. It is not without flaws, but I am not asking 10k for the car. The doors work well and open and close nicely no door sag. Fit Form and Function work well with this car.

RUST:

I looked it over very well for rust, since this should be a major concern when buying a Mustang. All the sheet metal is original with the factory coding. No patch panels or quarter patches. I did not try to cover up any patina with paint at all. I wanted you to see the originality. The only rust I found was a very small spot, just a start in the passenger floor pan, and some small bubbles in the lower front corner of the door. The rest of the car and major components are very solid, I do not see them this solid very often! See the pictures for yourself! The car has not had any visible wrecks. Just look at the front core support and rear deck panel! I AM VERY CONFIDENT ABOUT THE SOLIDNESS OF THIS CAR. ALMOST RUST FREE!

I am not looking to hide anything I want you to appreciate the quality of this car's originality!

Over all this is a very nice original SOLID Mustang. It has obviously been well taken care of and not restored or hacked up. Drive as is with little normal Mustang repairs or have a perfect foundation to take it to the next level show car.

Please call me if you have any questions at all.

First Ford Mustang prototype shots caught by legendary spy shooter Jim Dunne

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

You know how people refer to someone as having "been around the block" to mean they're very experienced? Well, when it comes to automotive spy photography, Jim Dunne actually laid down the concrete slabs of the block's sidewalk. The unforgettable Dunne more or less invented the car spy game - a fact he cemented by writing book called Car Spy - and has been delivering spy shots and reporting on the industry for some 45 years now. (He also once employed this writer as his impromptu personal chauffer on a Volkswagen trip in Germany, while he slept, but that's a story for a different time.)
In any event, Dunne must be on a mission to prove that "elder statesman" doesn't also mean "washed up" as it is his shots of the upcoming new 2014 Ford Mustang that we've been handed by our friends at KGP Photography.
Mr. Dunne has likely spent the last few years obtaining powerful telescopic lenses, as the Ford in question has clearly been photographed from some distance. Nevertheless, what you see here is visual evidence that the sixth-generation Mustang has moved beyond the mule stage, and is now testing in proper prototype form. Sources indicate that there are production-spec body panels under that baggy canvass dress; but the slightly less bulky silhouette of the new car can be just made out. While the car's bumpers have been removed to obfuscate things, we can tell by way of the camo's apertures that the car's taillights have moved upwards and towards the lip of the tail. A fender vent appears to be visible, too, just behind the front wheel.

Ford Escort is ready to focus on the Chinese market

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Ford officially revived the Escort name in China, showing of the new, four-door compact at the Beijing Motor Show. Painted in a stylish brown-bronze, the new sedan wears a number of global Ford styling cues while sharing its platform with the Ford Focus.
Power for the new model comes from a 1.5-liter four-cylinder, although Ford doesn't specify just how much power is on offer, simply saying that the fuel economy of the new mill will be "outstanding." It's unclear what transmission will be distributing the engine's power, although based on the images we've seen, the Escort will definitely offer a two-pedal setup.
The layout of the cabin is fairly clean, although as we mentioned in our initial post on the new Escort, it's a decidedly sparser environment than we've grown use to in US-spec Fords of late. If anything, it's like a weird blend of current Ford switchgear with an overall look that reminds us of older Ford layouts. Still, it looks like a comfortable way of moving five people about without too much fuss. There's ample space both front and rear, and a rather spacious trunk.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford HQ gets giant solar array, Chevy City Express gets 24 MPG city

Sat, Aug 16 2014

Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.
