Up for bids is this 1965 ford mustang K code fastback. For someone that doesn't know this is a rare car. These K codes are hard to find in any condition. This car has been sitting up for years. The inspestion sticker on it is a 1984 inspection sticker. As for the drive train the front disc brakes and rear end look original but the motor and transmission are gone. It was probably pulled out years ago when these cars wasn't worth anything and had another 4 barrell 289 engine put in it with a 3 speed transmission. It is a 1965 4 barrell 289 engine in it just not the good one. It hasn't ran in years so I am sure the motor would need rebuilding. The body has some issues but ive seen worse. It will need the normal floor pans, cowl repair, rear lower quarters, and a taillight panel. The front frame rails look okay. The rear rails look okay except the very back of the drivers rear rail will need some attention where it bolts to the rear shackle. It has some rust in that area. The engine bay looks okay. It has all 3 VIN numbers stamped under the hood where they are supposed to be and has the original door tag as well. It has all the glass in it. It has the majority of the interior with it. Look at the pics with the interior. If you see it then it is there. If you don't see it then it is not there. The trunk floors will need some small patches but nothing major. This is a restoration project. These original K code fastbacks never come around so it might be a while before you see another one. If you have a K code motor stuck back in the garage then you need this car to make the whole package. I do have a clear title for it.  Here is the break down of the door tag.

63A 2 door fastback

K color silver smoke gray

26 trim black vinyl

18L date november 1964

71 dso los angeles

5 axle 3:50:1

5 transmission 4 speed manual

The VIN number is 5R09K159383. According to the VIN the second leter R means this car was built in california which is where the shelby cars came from that year from what I was told and have read which makes this a pretty neat car as well. This would make a nice car for a collector to build if you are hunting one. I have described this car the best I can so if you have questions please ask. Like I said it will need a full restoration. It has rust and it is old and hasn't been touched in probalby 30 years so its a project. As for payment I will accept cash in person, certified bank check, or bank wire transfer as payment for the car. I can store it for a reasonable amount of time until you can pick it up or have it picked up but will require full payment be made within seven days of the end of auction. Again if you have questions or need more info just let me know.

Ford adding stop-start to all major model lines

Sun, 24 Nov 2013

Ford has gone all-in on its efforts to offer most of its new vehicles with a fuel-efficient EcoBoost engine, but the automaker is reportedly preparing to take another big step toward improving vehicle efficiency. Automotive News is reporting that Ford will soon expand the availability of start-stop technology, which was first offered - presumably the first non-hybrid vehicle, that is - on the 2013 Fusion (equipped with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine) as a $295 option.
The benefit of start-stop is reduced fuel consumption as it shuts the engine off at long stops, and AN quotes Ford as saying that drivers can save more than $1,000 on fuel costs over five years. Despite this, the option hasn't been popular on the Fusion thus far, but it could be more beneficial on bigger vehicles like the F-150. Ford also said that the next-gen Edge, which was previewed in concept form at the LA Auto Show, will be equipped with auto start-stop to help make the EcoBoost engines even more efficient.

Ford CEO Jim Hackett reviewing the future of technology, Lincoln, overseas markets

Mon, Jul 31 2017

By Paul Lienert and Joseph White Ford Chief Executive Jim Hackett is reviewing the automaker's operations in India and other markets, as well as Ford's future product programs including plans to build a self-driving commercial vehicle in 2021. Hackett, who took over as CEO in May, has told investors he is working on a 100-day review of Ford's operations but has so far provided few details of the process, except to indicate that it is looking at the automakers' luxury vehicle strategy, the future of its small vehicles and investments in emerging markets. Ford Chief Financial Officer Bob Shanks told Reuters in an interview that the review covers a range of issues, including Ford's strategy for India. "We have a lot of work to do (as) we address issues of how to fix India," Shanks said. "Everything is on the table." General Motors in May said it would stop selling cars in India but continue to produce vehicles there for export. Shanks said no decisions have been made and noted that Ford has a larger business in India than GM did. "We are very cognizant that will be the third-largest market in the world," he said. "Some big decisions will be made," Shanks said, but he cautioned Ford may not disclose all those decisions at the end of the 100-day review. Hackett is addressing challenges that have contributed to a nearly 8 percent decline in Ford's share price this year. The review of the Lincoln luxury brand includes whether current plans will meet former CEO Mark Fields' ambitious targets for growth and revenue, people familiar with the process said. Ford has set a target of putting a self-driving shuttle into commercial ride-sharing fleets by 2021. Hackett is reviewing the investment and timing for that project, the sources said. Hackett also assessing whether to reduce and consolidate production of models such as the Fiesta subcompact and two midsized sedans that are built in multiple locations around the world, but are experiencing slowing demand. One proposal would shift production of the next-generation Mondeo midsized sedan from Europe to Mexico, where it would share an assembly line with its sibling, the Ford Fusion, avoiding the cost of retooling two plants. Shortly after he took charge, Hackett approved a proposal to shift production of the next-generation Focus for North America from Mexico to China, saving the company an estimated $500 million by consolidating two factories into one.

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
