This 1800 pound car was born in Germany in 1980 with a 1600 cc Ford tractor engine and four speed transaxle. Ford only imported them in 1978, 79 and 80. It now sports an 1800cc DOHC Mercury Tracer engine and five speed transaxle. The engine is modified with a Ford duraspark distributor, MSD ignition, two barrel carbureator mounted on a custom hi RPM ram intake, electric fuel pump and a heat wrapped modified Miata header with a single glass pack muffler. The radiator is a custom made three row with electric fan. Instruments are Autometer, tach is a Sun. The wheels are 13 x 6 Panasport Rallys with new radial tires. Shocks are new, springs are cut one coil, strut rods have poly bushings with lowered brackets for anti dive (rally car trick). Brakes are new all around. The battery, spare tire and jack are mounted in the trunk. A Ford Focus rear sway bar is custom mounted. The roll bar is not race legal, it has RCI competition belts on the drivers side and regular seatbelt on the passenger side. It has the original paint with great patina, designed to look like an old race car that someone peeled the stickers off and put on the street. The body is solid and has very little rust which has only been primered to keep the old race car look. It has no computer and no emissions.

On the down side the engine and transaxle are solid mounted in a modified front subframe which transfers the engine vibrations to the chassis. This will keep it from being a daily driver but some rubber motor mounts could be fabricated. You will need to provide a battery, otherwise it is ready to go. The performance of this Fiesta is awesome. It is fast and handles super. It corners flat and does not dive under hard braking. It does have a little torque steer under hard accelleraton. It looks great at cruise nights and with some more dialing in would make a great weekend play toy. It has not been raced, we have done the hard part now it just needs to be driven and sorted. My son is building a BMW and I have a Saleen Speedster in the works so the little Fiesta must go to a new home. It comes with a custom fitted tow bar and is sold with a bill of sale and last Georgia registration (yes it is street legal). See the video at you tube: http://youtu.be/XcJZ3DrM6QY I am starting the bidding at the price of the wheels, tires and radiator with no reserve. You may call me at 678 986 1656 if you have any questions. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is also advertised locally.

Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.

Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5

Tue, Oct 4 2016

We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort

Fri, 24 May 2013

Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
