This is a great project car. It did not have the original engine in it when we bought it in 2006. We would have had more done to it if I hadn't become ill and had to quit work. The electrical needs to be reconnected on the door switches and the headlights. I believe all wiring is present. Also comes with a Budge car cover. There are a couple of places where the paint has chipped off. Not the original paint job. And,
the rear panel behind the rear window is rusted, a new one comes with the car, but has not been installed yet. The rust on the lower outer kick panel on the passenger side, should be easily repaired by rust remover and a little bondo. The car was involved in an accident before we purchased it. The front grill and bumper had been badly damaged so we found a replacement in very good condition with headlights. The support brackets behind the bumper need to be straitened a little more before the bumper can be tightly secured. Rear bumper and trunk was slightly pushed in and needs to be pulled out. The trunk does not latch right now, but all the parts to fix it after pulling it out are included. The interior is in pretty good condition, some small things need repair. Carpet is still in good condition. The 390 engine came out of a '73 Ford F250 and was rebuilt and painted. We used some of the parts off the other engine, like the Thunderbird valve covers. We were going to put in a dual Flex-Lite fan, which is included with car. It may need new springs or shocks and It has a new electronic ignition as well. I don't want to sell her, but I have to do to unforeseen circumstances. She has GREAT potential. Shipping will be buyers responsibility.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data
Fri, 14 Feb 2014Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.
Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.
