Available is a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. It needs to be restored, but it's all there, including the original keys. All the FB interior pieces, fold down rear seat. All the glass and stainless is good, the doors close tight, the windows roll up and down good. The dash pad is original and nice for it's age. The original AM radio is still in place. The lights, wipers and heater blower all work. The entire interior is original...tired, but original (good headliner)! The trunk lid and hood don't have any rust. There is a dent in the passenger door in the center by the door fender gap.
It's a C Code with the original 289. Everything under the hood is original except the 4bbl and aluminum intake. The Mustang runs and drives good, it's quick. The brakes pull a little to the right. The manifold on the driver's side is cracked so there is an exhaust leak. It starts right up, doesn't seem to leak or burn any oil. The transmission shifts good, even the light works on the indicator. It has a decent set of magnums. The floors and rockers are in good condition. The rear quarter are rusted, so are the rear drop offs, torque boxes and front frame rails. The bottoms of the front quarters have some rust lower by the rocker trim. They are okay for a driver, but will need to be worked or replaced if the car gets the restoration it deserves. Every body panel appears to be original. The best I can tell it's only been repainted once. Comes with new pair of front frame rails, and a new left repop quarter skin, and a bag of misc parts.
The reason I bought it is because it's a Red fastback with matching fender stamp, door tag, and title...and it's all there!!! There really isn't anything in this price range. It's the cheapest running FB on Ebay. Almost everything is restored and expen$ive, or it's a non running project, a turd, or coupe conversion. It's a running-driving vehicle you can play with and work on at the same time. I'm sorry the pictures suck, it was getting dark and a front was blowing in.
Ask questions before you bid. All questions will be answered. Sold as is with no warranty. It has a clear title. No or negative feedback bidders will be retracted. I reserve the right to end the auction early because I plan to list locally as well. Send me your number if you want to talk. Thanks. Also, I had to relist because someone hit the buy it now an hour after I listed it.

Ford C-Max spied with fresh updates
Fri, 05 Sep 2014The Ford C-Max hatchback looks to be getting a few cosmetic updates, as evidenced in this latest set of spy photos. Like the smaller Focus, which also received a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, the C-Max appears to be getting a revised front fascia with slimmer headlamps and a more, shall we say, Aston Martin-like grille. Around back, there looks to be a new bumper with redesigned taillamps, as well.
In other markets, the C-Max people-mover is available with a range of powertrains, but here in the US, it exists either as a traditional gas-electric or plug-in hybrid. The C-Max's fuel economy has been a particular topic of interest lately, with its official fuel economy ratings having been lowered twice since the vehicle's launch. Sales initially suffered a bit following this fiasco, though numbers have since leveled out. It's unclear if Ford is working on any powertrain tweaks for the updated C-Max seen here, however.
Ford has likely spruced up the hatch's interior, as well, though we don't have photos of that at this time. Mum's the word on when we'll see the new C-Max, but our best guess is that it'll arrive sometime in the next year.
Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here
Fri, 07 Mar 2014A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.
Recharge Wrap-up: BMW tests AdBlue pumps, Drivr is a Tesla taxi service
Thu, Jan 22 2015BMW is testing AdBlue pumps in Germany. AdBlue fluid is used to remove NOx from diesel exhaust, and it is stored in its own tank within the vehicle. Filling AdBlue is easy enough for drivers to do it themselves, and with the proliferation of diesel vehicles in Europe, a pump filling system could make more sense than using the current hand-held containers. BMW is testing AdBlue pumps at three fueling stations in Munich and Berlin to help develop further AdBlue dispenser technology. Read more at Green Car Congress. Drivr Green Personal Transportation is a Tesla taxi service in Cincinnati. Two former employees of Tesla Motors founded the startup, which bills itself alongside ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft. Customers book a ride online, and are picked up by a Tesla Model S. The ride costs $2.50 per mile with a $15 minimum. Drivr currently operates three cars with seven drivers, with plans to lease another 10 Teslas and employ up to 30 drivers. The service will also be expanding to Denver soon, according to the website. Learn more at the Drivr website, or read more at Clean Technica. Ford is opening a research and development facility in Silicon Valley. The Ford Research & Innovation Center, which will be located less than three miles from Tesla Motors headquarters in Palo Alto, California, is expected to be one of the automotive industry's largest R&D facilities. "We're driving to be both a product and a mobility company, and ultimately to change the way the world moves," says Ford CEO Mark Fields. Read more at Automotive News. Law firms advising Fisker Automotive have been denied a $2.50-million fee enhancement in the car company's bankruptcy. Brown Rudnick LLP and Saul Ewing LLP were denied the extra fees, as a Delaware bankruptcy judge ruled there is "no evidence" that the firms provided anything more than what they originally expected. In denying the fee enhancement, the judge cited a "very high bar" for such awards. Read more at Law360.
