Up for bids is this 1965 ford mustang K code fastback. For someone that doesn't know this is a rare car. These K codes are hard to find in any condition. This car has been sitting up for years. The inspestion sticker on it is a 1984 inspection sticker. As for the drive train the front disc brakes and rear end look original but the motor and transmission are gone. It was probably pulled out years ago when these cars wasn't worth anything and had another 4 barrell 289 engine put in it with a 3 speed transmission. It is a 1965 4 barrell 289 engine in it just not the good one. It hasn't ran in years so I am sure the motor would need rebuilding. The body has some issues but ive seen worse. It will need the normal floor pans, cowl repair, rear lower quarters, and a taillight panel. The front frame rails look okay. The rear rails look okay except the very back of the drivers rear rail will need some attention where it bolts to the rear shackle. It has some rust in that area. The engine bay looks okay. It has all 3 VIN numbers stamped under the hood where they are supposed to be and has the original door tag as well. It has all the glass in it. It has the majority of the interior with it. Look at the pics with the interior. If you see it then it is there. If you don't see it then it is not there. The trunk floors will need some small patches but nothing major. This is a restoration project. These original K code fastbacks never come around so it might be a while before you see another one. If you have a K code motor stuck back in the garage then you need this car to make the whole package. I do have a clear title for it.  Here is the break down of the door tag.

63A 2 door fastback

K color silver smoke gray

26 trim black vinyl

18L date november 1964

71 dso los angeles

5 axle 3:50:1

5 transmission 4 speed manual

The VIN number is 5R09K159383. According to the VIN the second leter R means this car was built in california which is where the shelby cars came from that year from what I was told and have read which makes this a pretty neat car as well. This would make a nice car for a collector to build if you are hunting one. I have described this car the best I can so if you have questions please ask. Like I said it will need a full restoration. It has rust and it is old and hasn't been touched in probalby 30 years so its a project. As for payment I will accept cash in person, certified bank check, or bank wire transfer as payment for the car. I can store it for a reasonable amount of time until you can pick it up or have it picked up but will require full payment be made within seven days of the end of auction. Again if you have questions or need more info just let me know.

2015 Ford Mustang fuel economy ratings leaked

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Thinking about buying a new Mustang, but want to know what kind of fuel economy it'll get? Well we have our first indication as the pony-car enthusiasts over at Mustang6G.com have gotten a hold of the Monroney window stickers for a few of the new 2015 Mustang models.
Although the V8 model is not among them, we can now see how the EPA has rated those models with a half dozen pistons or less. The Mustang EcoBoost with the turbo four and a manual transmission has been rated at 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 on the highway. The V6 manual gets 17 city and 28 highway, while the V6 automatic squeezes out a bit more in the city at 19 mpg but carries the same 28 highway rating.
By way of comparison, the latest Chevy Camaro with the V6 and a stick shift gets the same 17/28 EPA rating as a similarly equipped new 'Stang, and the V6 automatic Camaro gets 18/27 (slightly behind the Ford, but if you opt for the Camaro 2LS with its V6, automatic and 2.92 rear axle ratio, you'll be looking at 19 and 30).

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
