Original owner, car was custom ordered and built.
I have all the original paperwork, includes: owners manual, bill sheet, window sticker, service record, prep center sheet, delivery checklist, vehicle PO and invoice, title app., key tags
I also have almost all service receipts that have been done on the car. I am missing a few, but have most. I have the following (other maintenance was done, this is just what I have receipt proof of):
General Maintenance Receipts - 98 (tires balanced & rotated), 99 (tires balanced & rotated), 00 (brake job, tires rotated), 01 (alignment, 2 new tires), 02 (other 2 new tires), 03 (brake job), 04 (tires balanced, flat repair, 2 new tires), 05 (other 2 new tires, registration), 06 (transmission work, complete dealership tune up & servicing, tires rotated, engine check at dealership)
Inspection results - 99, 00, 02, 03, 04
Oil Changes (these were based on mileage) - 3/98, 5/98, 8/98, 10/98, 1/99, 3/99, 5/99, 8/99, 11/99, 3/00, 5/00, 10/00, 2/01, 4/01, 8/01, 9/01, 12/01, 6/02, 11/02, 4/03, 10/03, 4/04, 10/04, 3/05
Recent Work (2013) - New battery, New fuel pump.
Work needed - turn signals are not working, also the door ajar sensor is messed up and registers that the door is always open, so the interior dome light stays on, which in turn runs the battery down. So, to save the battery we have it disconnected right now. These could be a minor issue, something as simple as messing with the fuses, just not sure. Will probably need some front end work, as it's making a little noise. A/C needs servicing (might just need freon). Will need tires (the ones on it have tread, but the car has been sitting, so they are dry rotted). We drive it around the yard when we move it, but wouldn't trust them on the road, it will need to be trailered even though it runs. Car has not been registered since 2005, title is clear.
I'm also listing car on Ebay Classifieds; if I get an offer there before the reserve is met here, I will be cancelling this auction. Thanks!

Mulally confirms he's not leaving Ford for Microsoft
Tue, 07 Jan 2014In recent months, rumors had been flying about Ford CEO Alan Mulally potentially leaving the company to take a position at Microsoft. Last we heard, Mulally was planning to stick around at Ford through at least 2014, and in an interview today, that bit was confirmed by the CEO himself.
According to the Associated Press, in a report from The Detroit News, Mulally said he will not be leaving Ford for Microsoft, and reiterated that he will remain at the Blue Oval through 2014, if not longer. Mulally has "no plans other than to serve Ford," according to the report.
Mulally did not say whether or not he had been in talks with Microsoft at any point. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said he plans to leave the software company sometime this year.
Detroit 3 and UAW could create healthcare pool
Thu, Sep 3 2015Healthcare costs continue to multiply in the US with no clear end in sight, but the United Auto Workers and the Big Three are negotiating a way to rapid growth under control. As part of the latest contract talks, the union has an idea to create a healthcare pool across all of its members at Ford, General Motors, and FCA US. If accepted, the company-wide integration would spread out the expenses and create a massive member base for bargaining with insurance companies. Both Ford and GM are at least considering the proposal, according to The Detroit News, and FCA US might be on board, as well. The idea is the work of current UAW president Dennis Williams and is based on the similar pool for the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association for retirees. "I've walked through this several ways; I just don't have any other answer," Williams said to The Detroit News. "I do believe this will work. It's worked with the VEBA." Williams was elected UAW president last year and won by an overwhelming margin. He vowed no more concessions to automakers. In addition to healthcare, the two-tier wage system is another major talking point in the contract negotiation because it gives fewer benefits to entry-level workers. Higher wages are also a request. Healthcare costs are a massive expense for automakers and are expected to reach over $2 billion this year, according to The Detroit News. The payments are up nearly 50 percent or more in just the last four years.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters
Sun, 28 Sep 2014The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.
