If you are reading this, you must have some appreciation for older Fords. With that being said, you will really like this car. I was told about the car through some race car buddys, the car belonged to a gentleman that had owned the car for 30 years, he purchased the car from a guy out of the Carolina's, it had been a race car through out its lifetime. That's why it's so well preserved, I am getting off track, sorry.

The previous owner had raced the car for about twenty years or so, it use to have a 427 in it, the car went high 10's according to his son's. He had parked the car to take a break, and that turned into about 8 years, well, unfortunately the gentleman passed away. So the car just sat in the barn, the story I got was his race buddy pulled the 427 out, their dad had some sort of arrangement with the guy, so he took it. The two sons had enough parts laying around they started to get a motor ready, they had it machined, freshened up the block and stalled out. The car sat for a couple of years, they decide they didnt have time for the car so that's when I bought it.

I got most of the parts , I just had to put it together, plus a few odds and ends.

the motor is a standard bore early 390, new rings, bearings, oil pump, ect. The heads are 62 408 heads that have been decked, all new valves and springs, to accommodate the 500 plus solid roller cam. It also has the original cast iron long headers , they run about a grand by them selves. The transmission is a C6 wich I had completely rebuilt, along with a new 2500 stall. mechanically everything is new or has been rebuilt. I put the engine in the car and got it to fire, sound really good, the car basically need someone to adjust the lifters and set the points, also the brakes look great but need to be adjusted, i'm not too good with drum stuff. It has new tires up front. It also needs the a headlight switch, I think its bad, I couldn't move it.

The body is very impressive for a 50 year old car, it has never been restored, they painted the roof and tops of the rear quarters about 20 years ago. doors, fenders, quarters, and trunk are original to the car, other than a little surface oxidation from sitting the car is really solid. The previous owner put a fuel cell in the trunk, in the process of doing that he had the floor modified, but it looks good.

The interior is 100% original, the carpet is faded and the das pad has a few cracks, but all the seats look amazing, as well as the headliner.

If you are wanting a unique car that you wont see at the cruise in or drag strip, this is it

please call me with any questions, I am available most of the time, if you get my voice mail please leave a message and I will call you back asap. thanks 352 494 6913

More 2015 Ford Mustang pricing information leaks [UPDATE]

Tue, 20 May 2014

The big news this morning was that the 2015 Ford Mustang would start at $24,425, including its destination pricing. The big news this afternoon is, well, bigger.
Mustang6G.com has come up with what it claims is pricing info for the entire Mustang line, rather than just the V6. That means we know all about the EcoBoost and GT prices now, which, when combined with the dealer order sheets we reported on last week, gives us our clearest look yet at how the Mustang can be outfitted (we're still a bit short on pricing info for some standalone options, like paint premiums and such).
The base EcoBoost starts at $25,995, while the GT rings up at $32,925.

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift

Tue, 09 Sep 2014

Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
