Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person. AUCTION MAY BE STOPPED AT ANY TIME.
Vehicle came out of Wisconsin. Previous owner has had the car for the last 10+ years, slowly doing it up in his spare time with the help of his wife. There are pictures available of what the car originally looked like. Body was stripped to bare metal and repainted, complete NEW interior was installed (seat covers, carpet, door panels, headliner, etc. etc., NEWLY rebuilt motor, NEW gas tank, NEW weather-stripping, all new tune-up components. Odometer shows 98K miles which are BELIEVED TO BE ORIGINAL and the car drives fantastic!
Body is VERY STRAIGHT with excellent original gaps. Doors open and close nicely. Body does NOT appear to ever have been in any major collision.
Under the hood lies the original MATCHING NUMBERS 292ci Y-block engine (COMPLETELY REBUILT approx. 5k miles ago) with correct and original 3 speed manual transmission on the column. Everything is pretty much stock except for some new service parts installed. Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great along with the nice exhaust system. Transmission is solid and shifts great without any noises or grinding and clutch is excellent. I drive the car about once every other week for short trips around down or every once in a while I'll take it to a cruise night on the highway. It has never let me down and always performs great.
Interior is basically all stock ALL NEW PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED. Overall beautifully presentable for a high end driver.
Underside has a ROCK SOLID frame with NO rot or major rust. Good floorboards with some fiberglass repair in a couple of places and very nice and solid trunk.
The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is in VERY GOOD shape throughout, and although it looks great and has plenty of shine, it is a bit wavy down the sides and could have been block sanded a bit better. Bumpers could use rechroming/replacing. Not working: radio, perhaps a bulb or two may need replacing. When you turn the wheel to the left it doesn't go all the way so the turning radius is bigger turning left than right. Couple of rock chips on the windshield. Front side vent windows need replacing. Front driver's side window has a crack.
So overall she is not perfect but she's DAMN NICE!. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 50 years old so keep that in mind.
If you just want a GREAT LOOKING TURN-KEY DRIVER then this is the car for you. If you want a show car, it will need some work to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
2015 Ford Mustang gets pricing, configurator and less weight than expected
Fri, 13 Jun 2014It's here; it's finally here. No more speculating or looking at dealer order guides, the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang is finally online. That means you should put down whatever you're doing and build your new 'Stang. Weight data for the new model has also leaked out, and while there is an increase, it's less than previously rumored.
The basic V6 coupe carries a base price of $23,600, plus an additional $825 destination charge for all models. Upgrading to the 2.3-liter Ecoboost costs $25,170, and the Ecoboost Premium is $29,170. If you need a V8 in your life, the Mustang GT is $32,100 or $36,100 with the Premium package. That puts the starting price up about $1,000 over the previous generation for the V6, but the turbocharged four-cylinder starts about $1,400 less than the V6 Premium, which is no longer available. Prices for both V8 models jumped about $1,000, as well.
If you need the convertible Mustang, the V6 starts at $29,100, excluding destination, $1,590 more than last year. The Ecoboost Premium 'vert is $34,670, and the GT droptop is $41,600.
