This is a very solid, with steel body and fenders in very good condition. The owner had removed the roof from this two door sedan, to make it a TUB, street rod. The roof is available, should you wish to make it back to a sedan, which I doubt, when you see the craftsman ship involved. This was done 20 years ago and left in his pole barn, along with installing a Jasper 350 SBC, turbo 350 and a GM 10 bolt rear end. It also had a Mustang 11 front suspension installed and a tilt wheel. The interior has bucket seats, rear seat, floor shift and is sanitary and in very usable condition. You will notice wood parts, in place of sheet metal. This is also done with a great deal of craftsman ship and fits very well. Over the years, it has picked a good share of chips and scratches, moving it towards the rat rod category.

The owner, who had moved to Arizona, contacted me and asked if I would be interested in putting this disassembled street rod together and getting it running, as he had sold the property. I agreed and after doing all that is required in waking up and assembling a 20 year storage car, it now runs, moves, stops, with working lights and gauges. At this point it is not streetable, needing attention to the brakes and the 20 plus year old tires. It is capable of driving onto a trailer.

During the assembly, I noticed the need for three hood hold downs, as I could find only one. It has six aluminum E/T wheels, with big and little's on the car, and they hold air. I've done what I can the easy stuff is left for you. The reserve is very reasonable, because of that.

May consider a finished lead sled trade, no projects.

This car is listed locally and is subject to prior sale, ending the auction.

Amid Mulally rumors, Bill Ford praises company's deep bench

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Bill Ford went on the offensive to combat the rumors that CEO Alan Mulally would leave Dearborn for Steve Ballmer's vacated position leading Microsoft, adding that even if the 68-year-old, former Boeing exec were to depart, the Ford executive team is in a good place.
"I'm happy [Mulally] is going to stick around. But we also feel really good about where we are in terms of succession," Ford told Bloomberg TV, according to Automotive News. Rumors first cropped up about Mulally leaving Ford when AllThingsD speculated that he was in the running, early last month. In that same report, which you can read here, Ford's board of directors reportedly okayed the CEO stepping down ahead of his planned retirement in 2014.
That opened the floodgates, culminating in a report from a few days ago that the rumors over Ballmer's successor just might be true. The story is especially troubling, as Ford hasn't had Mulally under contract, according to AN. "He's here as long as he and I would like it to happen," Ford said, "We're also cognizant of training the next generation and getting them ready to go as well."

2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E, Volvo XC40 Recharge score high in IIHS tests

Thu, Apr 22 2021

New electric cars continue their streak of impressive crash test results. The two latest to go through Insurance Institute for Highway Safety testing are the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E and the 2021 Volvo XC40 Recharge. The former earned a Top Safety Pick award, and the latter picked up the Top Safety Pick+ commendation. Both vehicles got the top "Good" rating in every crash test, as well as the "Superior" rating for vehicle-to-vehicle collision prevention. They deviate when it comes to headlights and vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention. Because the Volvo has headlights rated "Good" on all trims, it got that extra "+" on its Top Safety Pick award. The Ford also has high-rated headlights available, but the standard units got the second lowest rating of "Marginal." As for the vehicle-to-pedestrian collision prevention, the Volvo received the second-highest "Advanced" rating, while the Ford was rated "Superior." Among the electric cars IIHS has tested, the Ford and Volvo continue a streak of high scores. The organization has evaluated the Audi E-Tron in both its body styles, as well as the Tesla Model 3, both of which get the Top Safety Pick+ rating. As a result of the XC40 Recharge's test score, Volvo pointed out that it is the only automaker whose entire lineup has received a Top Safety Pick+ rating.

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal.
