1989 Ford Mustang Lx 5.0 Hatchback (mca Show Winner) on 2040-cars
Greenwood, Indiana, United States
1989 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 (2013 MCA Indy National Event Show Winner) I had this car listed earlier this year here on EBay, but it did not sell as it did not hit my reserve price. I am actually kind of glad it didn't sell, because just shortly after I had it listed the transmission went out and the last thing I will do is misrepresent something. It now has a new trans. and is ready to go. I do have more invested in the car than I am asking, but isn't that the way it always is? If you are looking for a VERY Clean and nice Foxbody Mustang, than this is the one for you! Up for auction is this rare color combination 1989 Mustang LX 5.0 - This car is just one of the few left out there that isn't cut up and been made into a race car. The engine is all stock and original with only 60,955 miles. The only performance addition is an K&N air filter. I did install a new water pump, 160 degree thermostat, belt tensioner pulley, intake gaskets, timing chain gasket, oil pan gasket, serpentine belt, hoses, and a new aluminum radiator when I detailed the engine compartment. All new A/C components include, compressor, receiver/dryer, condenser, and hoses. The A/C has been converted to 134A and blows ice cold. The car has a fresh rebuilt transmission with "less than 50 miles on it", done by Dan Gilsdorf at Silverfox Transmissions. For the internal information regarding this AOD-450 click on this link http://www.silverfoxtrans.com/silverfoxtrans.com/TM_AOD-450.html. Also installed in the transmission is a hi-performance valve body from Silverfox Transmissions. The SPT-R (with a manual O/D lock-out valve body really woke this car up)! The shift pattern is altered so that the user can command each gear separately, and has a 12 volt solenoid for overdrive engagement. No more “1-D-1 Shuffle”!!! This VB can be shifted manually to higher gears while the lower gears maintain fully automatic function controlled with TV pressure. I hid the 12V toggle switch for this feature in the ash tray located on the console. I also went ahead and installed a brand new Circle D torque convertor as Dan recommended. This link shows the specs. for the convertor. https://www.circledspecialties.com/p-64-ford-12-hp-4r100-torque-converter.aspx With the new 8.8 3.73:1 Ford Motorsports rear gear the car BARKS the tires in the 1-2 shift and CHERPS the tires in the 2-3 shift. It has the 5-lug conversion kit from Late Model Mustang with 28- Spline axles. Has the factory headers with a BBK H-Pipe & Flowmaster American Thunder 409S stainless steel kit w/ polished tips. (I still have the original pipe with the convertors that will go with the car). The car has an awesome stance as it has Eiback Sportline lowering kit which dropped it 1.7" in the front and 1.5" in the rear. New front KYB Struts and Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates for the proper frontend alignment. New KYB rear shocks also. New front disc brakes & bearings as part of the 5-lug conversion. Wheels are Billet Specialties Street Lites. Front is 15x3.5 w/1.75 Backspacing, the rears are 15x8 w/5.5 Backspacing. (no tire rubbing issues). The front tires are Kumbo Power Star 165/80R-15 and the rears are Nitto Drag Radials 275/50-15. (The factory 4-lug 10 hole wheels go with the car also.) The exterior color is Cabernet Red with a RARE interior color of Saddle Tan. The car has all of its original NOS sheet medal & body panels and upholstery & carpet. Again this car is very clean and highly detailed. It has won Best of Show in it's class at the Arthritis show in Dublin, OH in 2012 and it was a Class winner at the 2013 Race to Indy Mustang Club of America National Event in Indianapolis, IN YouTube video of this car at http://youtu.be/gbpsssHBSQk Car is For Sale AS-IS with No Warranty. Also For Sale locally and can be removed from EBay before the end of the auction. Require a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of the sale. Balance can be made via PayPal or Cash in person. My reserve price is set very reasonable for this grade and quality of automobile. It is the buyers responsibility to have car inspected if you feel the need to. Also buyers responsibility for all shipping charges. The vehicle is located in Greenwood, IN 46143. |

Cadillac Offering $100 For Test Drives
Wed, Apr 23 2014The video meant to be presented here is no longer available. Sorry for the inconvenience. Cadillac is hoping to jumpstart sluggish sales with a generous offer to customers to get them into dealerships and perhaps behind the wheel of their very own Caddy. Cadillac is giving a $100 gift card to any insured car owners age 21 or older who drive non-GM vehicles built after 2004, WDIV reported. If you buy a Cadillac, the automaker is offering an additional $1,500 plus other incentives. Such sales promotions have worked well in the past, analysts told The Detroit News. Cadillac had strong sales last year, but sales are down 7.3 percent this quarter compared to the first quarter last year. Cadillac will run the promotion until the end of the month.

GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."
Cars with the most reckless drivers are full of surprises
Wed, Oct 13 2021Insurify is a site for comparing auto insurance quotes. Because insurance shoppers need to submit information like the vehicles they're driving and the infractions they've compiled while driving those vehicles, Insurify has quite the database of correlations tying certain models to a habit of breaking certain laws. When the site's data analysts decided to compile a list of the top ten models for reckless driving citations in the decade from 2010 to 2019, the ranking contained a few wild entries. The Dodge Challenger making the countdown will surprise precisely zero people. But the Saturn L200? First, a definition: USLegal.com defines reckless driving as "driving with a willful or wanton disregard for safety. It is the operation of an automobile under such circumstances and in such a manner as to show a willful or reckless disregard of consequences." So this list is a caution about particular drivers more than the cars. For a baseline, according to Insurify data, for any random model, 15 out of 10,000 people who drive that model have picked up one citation for reckless driving. Back to that Challenger, then. No shocker for being here, but it's actually number 10, with 44 out of 10,000 Challenger drivers nabbed for a willful disregard of consequences on the road. That's better than the first surprise entry, the Saturn L200, a sedan only on sale for six years, with the least horsepower on the list, and out of production since 2005. The data set put drivers of GM's extraterrestrial sedan at 45 reckless pilots per 10,000 drivers. There are two pickups on the list, the only modern one being the Ram 1500 at eighth, with a rate of 46 in 10,000. Somehow, drivers of the third-best-selling pickup in the U.S. outrun the overwhelming numerical superiority of the best-selling vehicle in the States, the Ford F-150. The other pickup is the Chevrolet K1500 at number five, with a rate of 56 in 10,000. This is not only the oldest vehicle on the list, it went out of production in 2002, before any other vehicle on the list. Between the trucks, the Volkswagen CC slotted in at seven with 47 in 10,000 reckless driving chits, the Cadillac ATS slipped into sixth with 48 in 10,000. The top four is a bag of unexpected. The Nissan 370Z is the first hardcore sports car on the list at number four, with 61 in 10,000 Z drivers flaunting their Fairladys in the face of Johnny Law.
