1968 Mustang is a C code 289 2V, C4 Auto on the floor, 8 inch Rear End. It has a great color combination with a Maroon exterior and a red interior.
This Fastback however is very rusty and will need everything from Front Frame Rails, Torque Boxes, Floor Pans, Inner and Outer Rockers, Rear Frame Rails, Trunk Floor, Rear Wheel Wells, Tail Light Panel, Hood, Fenders, Doors, Quarters and Deck Lid.

The car comes with most of the parts to make a complete motor "I cant be sure but I believe that the block is original to the car" The Block, Crank, Heads and 2V intake have a heavy coat of surface rust and will need machined to be usable.
It will also come with what I believe to be the original C4 Trans. and Drive Shaft.

For you Car Guys, You probably already know that every part for the 68 Mustang
is available through Dynacorn and other Mustang parts providers. Although, they all have to be tweaked to fit the car, most of today's aftermarket parts are fitting better than ever before witch makes the 68 Mustang a very restorable car!


I have a few parts that are not on the car that will go with it, such as the Gas Tank, Jack and lug wrench/handle, front turn Signal assembely's and a few other odds and ends.

The car comes with a clear title.

This auction will end approximately at 9:30pm Central time on 2/25 so dont miss out on the last couple of minutes of this auction.

Thanks!

You are welcome to call me with any questions about the car, Shawn @ 217-523-two one five seven.

THE WINNING BIDDER IS TO PAY FOR AND PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN ONE WEEK OF AUCTIONS END! ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE A PAYPAL ACCOUNT, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE CASH TO AVOID THE PAYPAL FEES. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, THE FINAL AUCTION PRICE IS THE PRICE OF THE CAR AND (NON NEGOTIABLE) IN PERSON!!!

Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).
