I'm selling my 2005 Ford Excursion Eddie Bauer Edition 6.0 Liter Power Stroke Diesel 4x4. This SUV is in excellent condition and gets hand washed/waxed every other weekend. When i purchased this SUV from a fellow EBayer in 2011 I immediately upgraded the suspension with a BDS lift (3.5 inch) nothing crazy, and added BDS dual steering stabilizers. The ride and handling characteristics of this huge SUV improved 100%. It went from squirrely to tame immediately - while it was in the shop, I had the crew install a Banks Big Hoss IQ system (bankspower.com/products/show/41/35) which adds approximate up to 138HP and up to 231 lb-ft of torque. I always drive it on Econ mode as it gives plenty of power when i need it. I've never used the drag mode or the other settings (there are 6) because LA traffic doesn't let you do much! And i never felt the need for more when it was loaded for the few camping trips we were able to make - I would cruise the 101 freeway loaded up with gear at 85MPH - breeze. Car camping is a pleasure as we would use a queen size air mattress in the back and our 80lb Rottie still had room to stretch out at the foot of the bed! The roof rack holds 6 bright RIGID LED lights - Left, Right and Rear. I have a 20 inch Rigid LED bar that i was going to install, but never got around to it. The Garvin roof rack holds a Full size Shovel, Axe and a 48" High Lift Jack but these are not included in the sale but the mounts are. The lights are activated by a 6 bank switch plate - obviously only three are in use (see pics). I was going to have a custom floor mounted piece made for the switches, but again, i haven't been able to find a decent maker or stock type - I know they exist, just haven't found one - Jotto makes one but it needs to be rigged to fit without their 28" mounting plate. Heated Seats, Power seats for both driver and passenger - Tow Package, REar AC, Power rear vented back panel windows - Loaded. Rear camera, parking distance control......full steering wheel controls...etc. I added a Pioneer AVIC Z140 Stereo head unit w/ SAT (SiriusXM), Bluetooth, HD radio etc.I also added Pioneer speakers front and rear with a Rockford Fosgate Punch amp. I connect my IPhone5 directly or via BT and it works great - I use Pandora frequently - I connect it via the charger when i need to charge my iPhone or iPad. In the center console i installed a console combo safe from console vault - I lock up valuables with confidence. I can show u how to change the combo - takes about 2 seconds or set it to 000. 2k miles ago in October, i spent $4000 on new EGR cooler, new Oil cooler, a fuel pressure regulator seal, oil change, UC-9 flush and turbo inspection. Turbo is in excellent. All the work performed was at a large local dealership and is guaranteed. I have all of the receipts. The tires are in great shape maybe 75-80 % (Nitto Terra Graplers - 325-65-18) The wheels are in excellent shape as well. The Excursion rides and drives great - No Vibration or drifting - Stops straight under heavy braking and is not too rough - Actually rides well for such a beast. The transmission shifts perfectly and when i had the vehicle serviced - there were no issues. The windows are professionally tinted all around and the interior leather has held up well - no rips - just gentle use. The Excursion has 115557 miles on the clock which is rather low for a 9 year old Diesel or any Diesel for that matter - that's approximately 12000 miles a year. We're not desperate to sell at all- this isn't a fire sale nor are we dying for a few bucks - but my work now provides me with a company vehicle and that would make four vehicles to park and we just don't have space at the house - So the big girl has to go. Email me with any questions - i'll get back to you as soon as possible. I can take additional pictures if you need specific areas. But I have tried to show as much as possible, but can accommodate requests as best I can. This is a serious sale for a serious safe and clean vehicle. There is a small loan on the Excursion, however, for the sake of a quick and clean sale, I'm willing to pay off the note prior to any sale for ease of transfer IF AND ONLY IF A DEAL IS MADE and the funds are good and the transaction is 95% done. All funds must clear my bank before release is to take place - No shipping, no possession by anyone before funds clear through our bank and are unavailable for reverse wire return, etc. Cash is good as well. I have sold and purchased on EBAY for @ 15 years- All of my info is upfront and nothing exists in any gray areas, so i expect the same from the buyer. \ Hate to be a hard A**, but it only takes a few jerks to load up on caution. Thanks for looking - email me for further details. Good Luck

Creations n' Chrome Top Notch Mustang is a one-of-a-kind fox

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Is there a cooler car from the 1980s and early 90s to mod than a Fox-body Ford Mustang? No, there isn't. If you disagree with us, we suggest you have a look at this 1990 Mustang Coupe, which just might change your mind. Although considering just how extensively modified this car - the Top Notch Mustang from Creations n' Chrome - is, we wonder just how much Ford is left in this old pony.
It rides on a custom race tube chassis that weighs a scant 700 pounds, while carbon-fiber bits and bobs help lower the overall curb weight to a mere 2,400 pounds. When paired with supercharged, 5.0-liter, Aluminator V8 from Ford Racing, the results are, doubtlessly, exciting. 855 horsepower at the rear wheels and 667 pound-feet of torque are available from that force-fed V8 should be just plenty for this car's intended purpose of running in standing-mile competitions.
The Top Notch Mustang is more extreme than just weight savings and a big engine, though. That 5.0-liter is essentially in what's known as a front-mid layout - where the engine is actually behind the front axle. In this case, the 5.0-liter V8 is 17 inches further back than a factory Fox-body, for better weight distribution. As a result, the cabin has been completely overhauled. An SLA front suspension, wheels from HRE, Wilwood brakes and Sparco interior items round out the extensive list of mods.

Last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible nets $500k for charity at Barrett-Jackson [w/video]

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

The last 2014 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible was sold on Saturday at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Reno, Nevada, for $500,000. Ford donated the Mustang to be auctioned for charity, and all of the money is going to the Brain Injury Association of America.
Parnelli Jones, winner of the 1963 Indianapolis 500, was there on behalf of the BIAA with his son Page, who suffered a brain injury in a sprint car crash in 1994. The bidding increased quickly, reaching $500k in no time, spreading a bit more hope to people who live with brain injuries.
The winning bidder will be able to choose the GT500's exterior, interior and stripe colors, and is scheduled to receive the car, signed by Parnelli Jones in appreciation for the donation, by the end of 2013. Watch the video below to see the auction-block action.

Ford supports bid for Detroit Rallycross race with Motown-minded Fiesta ST vid

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

As Ford continues its cheerleading effort to help bring the 2014 Summer X Games to its hometown of Detroit, MI, it has released footage of its 2014 Fiesta ST Rallycross car on location at some of the city's well-known landmarks. This video appears to have been shot around the same time as the previous X Games Detroit video was made, but it focuses 100-percent on rally car action.
With Ford Racing driver Andreas Eriksson behind the wheel, this Fiesta ST lays down some serious rubber atop Detroit's Cobo Hall parking structure, at Belle Isle and around the Michigan Central Depot. Detroit isn't alone in the bid for a three-year X Games contract as Chicago, Austin and Charlotte are also hoping to play host. The winning host city is expected to be announced this summer. Scroll down for Ford's two-minute video showing the Fiesta ST Rallycrossing through the Motor City.
