1965 Ford Mustang Convertible with factory Air Conditioning, 49,525 original miles, 3rd owner, no rust ever!
State Auto Leasing bought this car new and leased it to Superior Package Boiler and Equipment Co. on 6/7/65.
The car was sold to James B. Strup on 10/14/68 for $900.00 (see pictures for bill of sale).
The car remained with Mr. Strup for the next 47 years (1968 - 2015). Upon Mr. Strup's passing the car was sold to
me on 10/1/2015. At that time the car had 49,450 miles and was sold to me by Mr. Strup's wife (Mary Rose Strup).
9/3/64 - 6,000 mile service at 6,200 miles
4/6/66 - 12,000 service at 15,077 miles
11/30/66 - 20,000 mile service at 26,155 miles
5/16/68 - 48,000 mile service at 45,379 miles
The car was driven less than 4,000 miles between 10/14/68 and 10/1/15!
I have the original keys, build sheet, I.D. Card, owners manual, and several receipts from the past 50 years. The
car was repainted once by Mr. Strup in the original color, silver smoke gray. It was painted by Rice's Auto
Painting in West Hepstead, N.Y. in 1977 I believe. I believe but cannot be sure as the work order does not show
the date. I think it was 1977 because I do have the receipt for a new convertible top dated 9/15/77 and it is
believed Mr. Strup had the new top put on and the car repainted at he same time. When repainted neither the engine
compartment, door jams nor trunk were repainted, they still retain their original silver smoke gray paint.
The timing chain and gas tank were replaced 10/7/09. Some of the other work that was done on the car that I do not
have receipts for are: cherry bomb mufflers, power brakes, wheels as shown (I do have the steel wheels and full
hubcaps), intake manifold and carburetor. The interior is original except for the passenger door panel which I
replaced as the original was less than perfect. The original door panel is dated 3/1/65 and will be included with
the sale. At some point the radio was replaced with an after market model, I do not have the original.
Everything on the car works as it should. The air blows cold, the power top works correctly, horn works, wipers
work, all lights and directionals work.

Ford and Mercedes join Renault in French emissions investigation

Thu, Jan 21 2016

The French government is investigating certain models from Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and Renault because they allegedly produce more nitrogen oxide than the country's pollution rules allow, according to Automotive News, citing a French newspaper. After VW's emissions scandal, French regulators began checking more vehicles for evidence of defeat devices and excessive real-world pollution. According to Automotive News, the Mercedes S350 allegedly showed inconsistent results across these tests, and a Ford C-Max had NOx levels five times over the limit. The Renault Captur crossover, Espace, and an unnamed utility vehicle also had results that were too high. The French testing for this investigation includes an on-road emissions check that's not part of the EU's normal evaluations, which some automakers claim is unfair. "Unofficial on-road testing has varying conditions and can produce significantly different results," a Ford of Europe spokesman told Automotive News. Renault representatives met with French officials on January 18 to explain the situation. The company later submitted a plan to recall 15,800 examples of the diesel Captur, and said it would offer a voluntary software upgrade for about 700,000 other vehicles, according to Automotive News. Representatives from Ford and Mercedes will meet with the government soon, too. Renault's stock price plunged last week after investors heard that French regulators searched three of the automaker's sites as part of the emissions investigation. The stockholders feared an environmental scandal like the one currently embroiling Volkswagen. There's one major difference – as of now, there's no evidence Renault equipped any of the polluting models with defeat devices. Related Video:

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.
