This is a very clean 1965 Ford Mustang coupe.  It comes with a 302cid engine (engine code - C80E-6015-A) and a Borg-Warner T-5 9(Id tag#1352-199), 5-speed manual transmission.  It also has a 9" posi rear end with 4.56 gearing.  Wheels are Coy's Wheels (17" in front, 18" in rear).  Drum brakes throughout.  New exhaust system recently installed - 2.5" pipes, JBA mid-length headers, x-pipe, Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers.  Engine specs: Holley 4150 750 cfm double pumper (82751), aftermarket intake, stock heads with roller rockers, camshaft (high duration, exacts specs uncertain), MSD 8479 pro-billet distributor, alum. radiator (not installed yet), 10.5:1 compression, electric fuel pump, new shocks, springs and bushings, new gas tank.

Interior - new carpet, headliner, dash pad, recently changed instrument cluster (not fully functional), shaved door handles (electronically release using remote or door button on inside of vehicle).  Will need to have clutch replaced or adjusted (but still drivable).  Driveshaft needs balancing, should be no more than a $80 job if you remove it yourself.) Speedometer inaccurate (you can change speedogear to match) fuel gauge doesn't work properly (needs new resistor - has new gauge and new sending unit.)  
Exterior - Body is straight. Has a small ding (size of a nickel or smaller) in driver rear quarter panel.  Scuff marks around the vehicle (can easily be buffed out by detail person).  Very fun vehicle to drive.  Feel free to ask me any questions.  I am not the original builder but I have done a lot of work on it since I purchased it over 4 years ago.  Since this is an auction, and am selling the vehicle so I can purchase a home, I will leave the final price to the best bidder.  Happy Bidding!!!
Additional notes: I have tried to be as descriptive of the current condition of the car so there may be things that I have not described in this section. Car is sold as is and buyer must cover shipping costs. (Car can drive local but will need to be trailered no matter where it is being transported due to rear end gear ratio.)

Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.

Ford F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
