UP FOR AUCTION, A TRUE, 2 OWNER, LOW MILAGE (44,950 ACTUAL MILES ) BORN JALAPENO RED WITH CANYON RED AND WHITE LEATHER INTERIOR AND NICE WHITE TOP 1986 MUSTANG GT CONVERTIBLE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THIS WAS A SOUTH CAROLINA CAR, SO NO RUST ANYWHERE IN OR ON THE CAR. IT WEARS IT'S ORIGINAL PAINT AND UP UNTIL SEPT 2012 IT HAD THE ORIGINAL TIRES ON IT. PAINT IS GREAT EXCEPT THE PLASTIC NOSE IS FADED, NEW OWNER CAN PAINT IT IF THEY WANT TO, I WON'T BECAUSE THEY ARE ONLY ORIGINAL ONCE . EVERYTHING ON THE CAR WORKS LIKE IT SHOULD AND THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE A DREAM, IT EVEN HAS THE ORIGINAL MARCHAL FOG LIGHTS AND COVERS ON IT AND THEY ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. THE DASH HAS SOME CRACKING AS DO THE LEATHER SEATS DUE TO BEING IN THE SUN MOST OF IT'S LIFE, THESE ARE EASY FIXES AND WOULD MAKE THE CAR ALMOST PERFECT. MOST OF YOU WILL KNOW THIS BUT 86 WAS THE LAST OF THE 4 EYED MUSTANGS AND THE FIRST YEAR FOR FUEL INJECTION, THE 8.8 POSI REAR END AND THE ONLY YEAR THAT CAME LOWERED AND WITH UNDERDRIVE PULLEYS FROM THE FACTORY. THIS CAR WAS SPECIAL ORDERED FROM THE FACTORY ( THE REAR WHEEL ABS ) AND CAME WITH EVERY OPTION THAT COULD BE ORDERED. THIS IS A VERY RARE CAR, AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN ADULT OWNED. THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO WAS REPLACED IN JUNE OF 2010 WITH A USED SPEEDO SHOWING I02,994 MILES AS THE ORIGINAL QUIT SHOWING THE MPH AT 41XXX MILES AND WOULD NOT PASS STATE INSPECTION. THE DMV PUT THE REPLACEMENT SPEEDO MILAGE ON THE TITLE AND IT WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE TO CHANGE IT AND I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL SPEEDO. I ALSO HAVE THE REPAIRED MAP POCKETS FOR BOTH DOORS BUT HAVE NOT INSTALLED THEM. A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER THE 140 MPH SPEEDO WAS INSTALLED BY ME AS I KEPT RUNNING OUT OF NUMBERS ON THE DIAL WHEN I DROVE IT ON THE INTERSTATE. YOU WILL NOT FIND A CLEANER,NICER, MORE ORIGINAL GT CONVERTIBLE ANYWHERE AND IT WILL ONLY GO UP IN VALUE. YOU CAN DRIVE THIS CAR FROM HERE TO ANYWHERE YOU WANT WITH NO ISSUES AND IT IS EASY ON GAS IF YOU KEEP YOUR FOOT OUT OF IT, 18-20 MPG CITY, 21-23 CITY/HIGHWAY COMBINED, 25 PLUS MPG ON HIGHWAY IF YOU USE COMMON SENSE, I GOT A LITTLE OVER 26 MPG DRIVING FROM ASHLAND VA TO VA BEACH VA AT 75 + MPH. THIS IS A GREAT CAR BUT NEED MONEY TO BUY MY DAUGHTER A BETTER CAR AS HERS HAS OVER 210,000 MILES ON IT. THIS CAR IS APPRAISED AT OVER $10,000 AND INSURED FOR $18,000 AND WORTH EVERY PENNY OF IT. MY RESERVE IS SET TO REFLECT THE CONDITION OF THE CAR, SO DON'T LET THIS ONE GET PAST YOU AS YOU WON'T FIND ANOTHER LIKE IT ANYWHERE AND YOU CAN DRIVE IT ANYWHERE. THE RULES: IF YOU HAVE A SCORE OF 10 OR LESS YOU MUST CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR YOUR BID WILL BE CANCELLED, I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL FOR THE $500 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT ONLY AND THE REST WHEN YOU PICK CAR UP OR HAVE IT PICKED UP. CASH IS PREFERRED BUT OTHER FORMS OF PAYMENT ARE ACCEPTABLE BUT CAR DOESN'T MOVE TILL PAYMENT CLEARS MY BANK AND YOURS, CAR IS PURCHASED AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BID/BUY, YOU BID, YOU WIN, YOU OWN WITH NO EXCEPTIONS, AND I WILL HOLD YOU TO IT AS THIS IS A LEGAL AND BINDING CONTRACT, I THINK I COVERED EVERYTHING, BUT IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION OR TWO, DROP ME AN EMAIL AND I WILL ANSWER.

Second part of Forza Horizon 3 car list revealed early
Tue, Jul 26 2016We previously brought you the first portion of Forza Horizon 3's list of 350 cars last week, and today we're bringing you part two. Apparently Fairfax Media in Australia had the list and images early and published them on The Sydney Morning Herald's website . We say early because the publication's story reveals that Playground Games, the developer of the game, plans to make the official announcement on the Forza website this Wednesday. This set of virtual machinery brings us closer to the full list, which will continue to be revealed over the coming weeks. While this part is smaller than the first one, it still features a number of notable automobiles, including the Bugatti EB110 Super Sport, GMC Syclone and Ferrari Dino 246 GT. This list also adds more vintage Aussie machines, including the very cool 1974 Holden "Sandman" HQ panel truck. Fans of the Mad Max movies may remember Max's Sandman truck from the original film. Check out the list of new cars from The Sydney Morning Herald below and take at look their article for new images and insight on what the developers' goals were for the game. 2007 Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione 1970 AMC Rebel "The Machine" 1998 Aston Martin V8 Vantage V600 2011 Audi RS 5 Coupe 2011 BMW X5 M 1981 BMW M1 1992 Bugatti EB110 Super Sport 1970 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 1966 Chevrolet Nova Super Sport 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR 1969 Ferrari Dino 246 GT 1968 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 2011 Ferrari FF 1978 Ford Mustang II King Cobra 1956 Ford F-100 1991 GMC Syclone 2016 Holden Special Vehicles GTS Maloo 1951 Holden 50-2106 FX Ute 1974 Holden Sandman HQ panel van 2012 Infiniti IPL G Coupe 2015 Jaguar XFR-S 1997 Lamborghini Diablo SV 2014 Lamborghini Urus 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged 2005 Lotus Elise 111S 2013 Mazda MX-5 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.5-16 Evolution II 2013 Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI GSR 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR 2000 Nissan Silvia Spec-R 1977 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 2010 Renault Megane RS 250 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX STi Related Video: News Source: The Sydney Morning HeraldImage Credit: Playground Games/Microsoft Auto News Bugatti Ford GMC Holden Technology video games forza motorsport forza horizon 3
Swedish car mag says Ford Mondeo is dangerously, illegally overweight [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Sweden's Teknikens Varld has a reputation for being very persnickety when it comes to auto safety testing, and its latest catch is the Mondeo Titanium Estate 2.0 TDCi 150 bhp S6 MPS (basically a station wagon variant of the Fusion). In addition to the model's mile-long name, it has another problem according to the Swedes, because its weight on the scales does not equal the official numbers for the vehicle. Teknikens Varld claims the wagon is dangerously overweight because it weighs in 4,145 pounds, while Ford officially lists its weight at 3,530 pounds. That 615-pound disparity means that if a family loads it to what they think is the model's gross vehicle weight, it will actually be too heavy, and therefore illegal to drive in Sweden. According to the magazine, when it tried doing this, the rear wheels scraped against the wells, and the estate failed the mag's legendary moose test. However, at 220 pounds over the limit, it passed the test. When reached for comment by Autoblog, Jay Ward, Senior Manager at Ford of Europe Product Communications, explained the reason for the deviation between the official numbers and the magazine's test: "We are aware of this, but this is not an issue that relates specifically to the safety of the Mondeo, but is in fact related to the way in which the cars are tested by the authorities. We provided an Ambiente model for the testing but the car that featured in the magazine test was a Titanium model which has a different weight. We are in discussion with the Swedish Transport Agency to change the framework so the real weight of the Titanium model is reported instead of the Ambiente model which will resolve the issue." Teknikens Varld is well-known for calling out automakers for perceived transgressions. Most recently it leveled criticisms against the all-wheel drive system in the Honda CR-V, and both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Porsche Macan failed its moose test.

Manage Settings. The new Ford Mondeo is dangerously overweight The new Ford Mondeo is a great car, which Teknikens Varld's test shows, but there is one problem – the weight. Mondeo weighs 279 kg more than Ford claims. With big load (ie family plus luggage) the car therefore becomes illegal to drive.
William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88
Sun, 09 Mar 2014William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
