1965 Ford Mustang Fastback 289 V8 Fully restored. Show and Go!
Professionally restored in 2009. The car was rust free and only needed a cosmetic restoration which was done to a
very high standard.
This classic can be driven, enjoyed and has brought home its share of trophies at the local car shows.
Runs fantastic, handles great, and does not have any of the typical rattles of the older ponies.
The overall paint quality is excellent and the car has a great stance. Their is a small paint crack on the
passenger side below the rear glass where the roof begins to curve which is quite common. Other then perhaps a tiny
paint chip or two I believe you will find the body to be show ready.
The rear valance was changed to accommodate the GT style dual trumpet exhaust. Chrome trim, bumpers and glass all
look excellent and the windows roll up and down nicely.
The entire interior looks fantastic and everything works.
A custom Auto Sound Digital AM/FM with a satellite dock was installed in the original radio spot and speakers were
neatly placed into the front kick panels.
The car has the original C-code 289 V8 slightly dressed up with chrome valve covers and air cleaner.
Nicely upgraded to an Edelbrock Preformer 289 Intake and 4bbl carburetor. A nice set of headers was also added and
this car truly preforms like an A-Code 289 would. It pulls very strong and drives very smooth.
Front suspension was redone and although it is manual steering it is a breeze to steer and drives nice and
straight.
Radiator was replaced and it runs nice and cool.
The original door tag (will come with the car) was removed when the car was restored and replaced with a
reproduction door tag that shows the current color. The original vin # stamping is present on the drivers side
inner fender.
The inside of the trunk is nicely detailed and rock solid.
Floor pans and frame rails are in fantastic condition and were lightly undercoated at the time of the restoration.

2015 Ford F-150 [w/videos]

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

To learn more about the all-new 2015 F-150 and get an early read on its potential hero-or-zero status, we flew to the heart of full-size pickup truck country, San Antonio, TX, to spend a day driving, towing and playing in the mud with an assortment of Ford's innovative new trucks.
First, a caveat - while we feel we have a reasonably good handle on the new F-150 after attending this first-drive event, we are far from ready to pass definitive judgment on the success of this radically new rig. Our time in the various models was lamentably limited and we felt rushed. With so much at stake and with so much to talk about and experience, we had zero alone time with the vehicle - there were Ford folks shadowing us at every moment.
And we still don't know everything there is to know about the trucks, as Ford is withholding some of its most crucial numbers, including curb weight data and anticipated EPA fuel economy figures. We don't even have a firm on-sale date. All of this information is typically disclosed - or at least officially estimated - at the time of a new vehicle's first drive. This limits the scope of the judgments we feel comfortable making based on our first encounter.

First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters

Sun, 28 Sep 2014

The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.
