1986 MUSTANG GT CONVERTIBLE 5.0 RED CLEAN INSIDE & OUT NEW TOP/PAINT/CLUTCH ETC.

My father purchased it from a family friend, he has had this car since 1990, it has hardly been driven since then. He moved to FL with Mom and they left the car here, so I started fixing it up over the years, and now I am newly married. . .And I have different new projects evolving with her. So the car has to go. :(

Exterior: No Body Damage, no rust, New Orig.Factory Jalpeno Red Paint (Before the car was painted there was only surfaced rust on the doors that was repaired professionally(Have pics before it was painted if your interested.) The rest of the body was solid, The Door jams, Rockers, inside the hood are all still orginal paint. The Paint looks great has a very nice clear coat! The White power Top is Brand New and works great! Eagle Alloy 16 inch wheels are in great shape, The tires are like new 225 50 R16, General's top of the line tires $500.00 brand new. Brakes are good. Headlights work, brake lights, and turning singals all work. The fog light bulbs need to be replaced. The fog lights themselves work. One crack on the windshield, it might be able to fixed, see pic for details. And the driver side door only locks from inside.

Interior: The interior is clean minor wear from over the years, Dash, door panels, visors, trim, console looks great, The Seats are in very good shape, there is some wear from the sun on the edges of the seats(Not bad at all) And in the back seat I saw one very small minor burn hole. The fuel pump is manually controlled by a toggle switch(Gives security) New Cd player with $150.00 Pioneer Speakers in the back. The fronts I could not wire in, because they were stock, need to get new ones for the front. I will also include original speakers with Original Radio. Power windows work great and are very clean.

Engine/Trans: 5.0 Engine ALL Original, runs strong, Sythetic oil change, Brand New Ram Clutch($530.00), New Fuel Pump, New Fuels Injectors(Cost $1500.00). Just changed both Valve cover gaskets. Everything is Stock and Original, My Dad said the A/C used to work, just needs to be charged. Little tiny oil leak from oil pan gasket, did not get a chance to replace.

Under carriage: Some minor surface rust, not a big deal from over the years. FYI: I also have some spare parts that come with the car, the old luggage rack, light bulbs, the door panel pockets.

Over all the car is very good shape, It is a head turner. I like to be very honest in my listing, that way you know exactly what your buying. If you have any questions feel free to call 630-550-9858. Items are Sold as Described and as is. Please make all inquires before Bidding. -Thanks

Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

2015 Ford F-150 pricing announced, aluminum-bodied truck up just $395

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

The eagerly anticipated Ford F-150 has had its 2015 pricing announced, adding only a small amount to the pickup's total cost, despite its weight-saving aluminum body. The XL and XLT entry level models only see a $395 boost over the heavier, current-generation, 2014 truck.
The XL starts at $26,615 while the XLT rings up at $31,890. The increase for Lariat is up a similarly negligible $895, to $39,880. Going up the ladder, meanwhile, the leather-intensive King Ranch sees the biggest jump of the F-150 family, with prices increasing $3,515, to $49,460. Finally, picking up the top-end Platinum trim will cost an extra $3,055, with prices starting at $52,155.
The higher prices are being blamed not only on the aluminum bodies, which trim up to 700 pounds of body fat, but on increased levels of standard equipment. While we were expecting a price hike, the fact that the 2015 F-150's volume trims - Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Reuters that the XL and XLT alone cover 70 percent of F-150 sales - have had less than a $400 increase is hugely impressive.
