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.

2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.
