NORTH CAROLINA BARN FIND, SAME OWNER FOR MANY YEARS.

RARE 289 SPECIAL ENGINE
3 SPEED ON THE COLUMN
DUAL OUT SIDE MIRRORS
AFTER MARKET RADIO
HEATER
NEW FLOW MASTER DUAL EXHAUST
JACK AND SPARE
FENDER SKIRTS AVAILABLE
RUNS NICE
JUST DID THE FUEL SYSTEM AND CHECKED OUT THE BRAKES.

IT WILL DRIVE AWAY, BUT I WOULD HAVE SOME CONCERNS WITH THE OLD BIAS PLY TIRES, DATED IN THE 1968 ERA.
THE ENGINE IS GREAT, VERY SMOOTH, NO SMOKE NO LEAKS, STARTS QUICKLY AFTER SITTING A DAY OR TWO.

IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THE 289 CAME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR FOR THIS MODEL, MUCH LIKE THE MUSTANG SAME VINTAGE. I ASSUME THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED "289 SPECIAL" MOST WERE 260 ENGINES.

THE CLUTCH HAS SOME CHATTER, I'M HAVING IT CHECKED OUT FIRST OF NEXT WEEK. IT GOES THROUGH THE GEARS VERY WELL, AND IF YOU TAKE OFF EASY IT'S NO ISSUE.

REAR END IS STOCK 300 RATIO

FLOORS, MOUNTS, BRACES, TRUNK PAN ARE ROCK SOLID ORIGINAL.

MILES ARE BELIEVED TO BE 35000

HARD DASH IS NICE, STEERING WHEEL IS GOOD, NORMAL FOR THE PAINT TO WEAR OFF UNLESS THE INTERIOR WAS BLACK, NO CRACKS ETC.
ALL GLASS IS ORIGINAL, SIDE TRIM IS ALL GOOD, BUMPERS ARE PEELING, BUT NOT ROTTEN.

THE FRONT SEAT WAS REDONE SOME TIME BACK IN THE PROPER MATERIAL, MUCH BRIGHTER THAN THE REAR SEAT.

BUMPERS HAVE SURFACE RUST, BUT NOT ROTTEN.

THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL, UT THE OLD GUY HAD ACCESS TO SOME RATTLE CANS, AND TRIED TO TOUCH UP SOME AREAS, I THINKI IT'S POSSIBLE TO WIPE OFF THE NEW, AND KEEP THE OLD UNDERNEATH.

THE FAIRLANE NEEDS A RESTORATION, OR DRIVE IT AS IS WITH ALL THE PATINA IN PLACE.
A SET OF WHEELS WITH THE OLD PAINT SEEMS TO BE THE CURRENT TREND.
ALSO A THUNDER BOLT CLONE IS POSSIBLE.

THAT SEEMS TO BE THE LATEST TREND!!!!
IF YOU NEED HELP WITH TRANSPORT I MAY BE ABLE TO HELP, I MAKE REGULAR TRIPS SOUTH OF CINCINNATI OHIO THROUGHT WV,VA, KY, TN, NC, SC, GA, AND NORTHERN FL.

I CAN ALSO HELP WITH WORLD WIDE SHIPPING. I HAVE PROPER TITLE IN MY NAME ON HAND.
OUT OF COUNTRY SALES WELCOME, I HAVE SOLD IN THE PAST, AND HAVE PROPER DOCS.

IF YOU NEED MORE PICS THEY ARE AVAILABLE,
EMAIL ME DIRECT AT ULTRAMAN@FUSE.NET IF NEEDED, YOUR ALSO WELCOME TO ASK QUESTIONS AND MAKE OFFERS DIRECT.
THE VEHICLE IS FOR SALE LOCAL, AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION WITHOUT NOTICE.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost

Fri, 09 May 2014

I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:
