1966 Ford Mustang Gt on 2040-cars
Highland Lakes, New Jersey, United States
More infos regarding my car at: lakeishalkkawaguchi@cobblers.org .
Up for your consideration is my 66 Mustang GT Coupe. It is an authentic GT car, not a plain Mustang dressed with GT
badges. It is a numbers matching drivetrain throughout, engine, transmission, rear end even the special GT steering
gear. Correct C6ZF Autolite 4100 and button top fuel pump.
This car was restored 30 plus years ago by Ed Gaczek of Morris Plains NJ, (now retired). His repeat customer was
renowned Mustang collector the late Dave Zimmerman. This car collected too numerous to list awards over it's show
career from 1988 through 2001. These were all AACA National events not local shows the car was retired with
multiple Senior Grand National Retired Preservation Awards. Quite an impressive and distinguished career.
What makes a car like this extra special is that it was done at a time were replacement parts were still largely
available through your local Ford dealer. So this car was blessed largely with restored original or NOS Ford parts
keeping the pedigree and quality to the highest standard.
This car drives beautifully, starts right up, engine is smooth and strong, transmission shifts effortlessly through
the gears and the equa-lock rear axle is smooth and quite. Everything functions as it should, even the clock in the
Rally Pac! The interior is whistle clean showing no wear just gentle use.
The under carriage is beautiful especially considering the era in which it was done. Detailed suspension parts,
correct hardware etc. Exhaust is solid with a nice rumble through the trumpets. Car comes with extensive
documentation, past owners, titles, awards lists, breakdown and decoding of all the pertinent numbers on the car.
Car was also a cover car for Mustang Times magazine.
As you might expect being restored 30 years ago there are minor age issues with the finish in a few places. These
could be addressed by the new caretaker but it is not necessary by any means. The car has the correct patina for a
distinguished vintage vehicle. The vehicle is completely free of rust. The car is safe to be driven anywhere with
confidence.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VI
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.
Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9
Mon, 01 Apr 2013There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
Ford issues six recalls covering 101,000 vehicles for multiple issues
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Ford is announcing six separate recalls for a variety of issues affecting a dozen models and a total of 100,610 vehicles in North America. However, according to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker, "None of them have caused accidents or injuries." Half of them cover fewer than 1,000 cars.
The largest recall covers 92,022 North American examples (about 83,250 in the US) of some models of the Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, Ford Interceptor, Flex and Lincoln MKT from the 2013 and 2014 model years; the 2012-2014 Edge and the 2014 Lincoln MKX. All of them have a potential issue with the halfshaft on the right side that might not be fully seated and could move outward over time. If it shifts too far, the models may no longer be able to drive, and the condition could also allow the vehicles to roll away, even when in Park. Dealers will inspect the shaft to make sure it's seated and will replace the part if necessary.
The next-largest recall covers 5,264 North American examples (4,867 in the US) of the Ford F59 Commercial Stripped Chassis from the 2011-2014 model years. It's possible that an electrical junction box can corrode in areas with salty roads and short circuit. The problem could potentially cause a fire. Dealers will replace the box with an improved design.
