I purchased this car from Liberty Lincoln-Mercury in Clifton, NJ on 10/22/2011 for $6,800 and had it shipped to the Chicago suburbs. That dealer purchased the car from the granddaughter of the original owner. I have the original dealer invoice, car sticker, dated 1/22/1968 from Jack Gibbons City Ford for $4,738, see both pictures. Therefore, this is basically a one owner car that I had purchased for my dad in 2011. The car runs excellent, however, it must be towed as the rear end "locked" up on us. I am not sure what is wrong or else I would obvious tell you. The engine and body condition, along with the low mileage and "original" condition was why I purchased this car. The interior lighting needs some electrical work. The car needs paint as it's original. This is a very solid car, I did not want to sell it. My dad recently had a stroke and we will no longer be able to restore this car. I am an honest person in a bind to sell the car. Please feel free to ask me any questions. If you would like to see the car in person, just contact me. Buyer must arrange and pay for shipping / pick up, I will not.

ADDED: I STARTED THE CAR YESTERDAY 6/8, IN REVERSE IT WILL MOVE BACKWARDS, IN DRIVE IT WILL NOT MOVE FORWARD. (Something is wrong with the rear end???)

This car is priced to sell asap.

Thank you.

Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.

Ford files trademark for 'EcoBeast' moniker

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Ford has done some performance stuff with its EcoBoost line of vehicles, most notably with its Focus and Fiesta ST, the new, turbocharged Mustang and the luke-warm Taurus SHO and F-150 Tremor, but it's kind of avoided going wholly bonkers. That could be set to change quite soon, judging by a trademark filing with Uncle Sam. Ford has registered the name EcoBeast with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, listing it as "automobiles and automobile engines," according to the team at Motorlix, which discovered the filing. As always, it bears mentioning that companies are constantly filing trademarks, even if a good or service never emerges with said name. We agree with Motorlix, though – it seems highly unlikely Ford is going to just let this name languish. What vehicle or engine will wear this new badge is the real question. We're leaning towards something F-150 related, based on our last round of spy photos of the new SVT Raptor, although it's impossible to say for certain what the Blue Oval has planned. Here's hoping we find out in just a few weeks when Ford brings basically all of its performance merchandise to the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, let us know what you think Ford is planning with the EcoBeast.
