Hello, I am listing my 66 mustang for auction. I have owned this car for about 15 years. I am a car guy and a ford guy. I believe this is my best description of how I acquired this car. So the previous owner possibly the original owner drove it and loved it until the harmonic balancer came apart and broke the crankshaft at which point the car was put into storage. Either a truck body or a garage with a bad roof but the car sat until the roof of whatever storage situation was being used started to leak. Water leaked down on the car and made its way through the trunk and did a number on the quarters and trunk Pan on the drivers side. At some point around 92-94 the car was donated for a tax right off and that's how it ended up at the salvage yard were I found it. I traded a Harley for the car. When I got the car home I pulled the engine sent it to the machine shop ordered a crank kit and a new balancer and reassembled it. I used reproduction parts and paints to reassemble to keep it original as possible. I had it running and very strong I might ad however it's been sitting since 2001-2003 somewhere in that range. The car had 4 repaints of silver blue metallic on it so I replaced and or stripped any pieces I could so front fenders are ford stamped units. New front and rear valances a full qtr on the drivers side and a partial on the passenger side. I etched primed the car covered it up to work on other projects and never got back to it. It's been inside my garage covered for pretty long now and I just have not had the motivation to finish it. I'm getting reading to build a new shop in march and I have to give something up to make room. So here it is. It was hard for me to take great pictures because the car was buried and its winter I can add more if necessary. It's a neat car as mustangs go and a true GT with air. Stuff I think is cool are the original floor mats FOMOCO mufflers and a old Saint Christopher pin on the visor. The glass is out window mechanism out most of the interior is still in the car AM stereo, pony interior. I attach'es some grainy photos of the car when I got it back in the day. Thanks for looking.

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
Ford starting up 2.0L EcoBoost engine production in Ohio
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas (pictured above), announced today that in late 2014, the automaker will be building the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder at its Cleveland Engine Plant, a move requiring a $200-million investment and the hiring of 450 new employees. European-built Ford products will continue to source this engine from the Valencia, Spain plant where all of these EcoBoost four-cylinder engines are currently built, and the new Cleveland engines will be used for all North American-made models.
Ford is planning to build its popular EcoBoost engines regionally to maximize production capacity and meet customer demand. Last year, Ford sold 334,364 vehicles with EcoBoost engines in the US alone, and that number is expected to swell to more than 500,000 by the end of this year, with global sales expected to total 1.6 million. By 2015, Ford says that 95 percent of its nameplates will offer an EcoBoost engine.
One such vehicle that could be adding an EcoBoost engine, according to Automotive News, is none other than the 2015 Ford Mustang. The report says that Ford could use either the 2.0-liter EcoBoost or an upcoming 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the sixth-generation pony car.
