Today up for bids is a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. First off I apologize to anyone bidding on the last auction. I mentioned I had an engine also for sale and ebay pulled the ad. My goal was to make this into a Shelby GT350 Clone. This car was originally equipped with a 289 2V and stick transmission. I cannot verify whether this car was a 4 speed or 3 speed because the door tag is missing. There are a lot of extra parts that come with the car. Most of the original Fold Down parts are there (All that is missing is the trap door and big interior panels). I took these out of another car. Also included is a Shelby style rear seat delete. The rear glass is really nice along with surrounding trim. The car is going to need alot of body panels (see pictures). All pieces needed are readily available through major Mustang suppliers like NPD or Mustangs Unlimited. There is a clear title included with the car. All of the extra parts pictured are included in the sale. There is also a brand new windshield included which is not pictured. The drivers side door is off of a coupe and you are going to need to find a fastback door glass for that side. The extra side louvers have extremely nice chrome inserts (almost impossible to find.) The headliner is missing. The Rear Axle is an 8 inch posi trac. There are 4.11 gears in it. This would make a great start to a Shelby Clone or other custom project. The car is located in Wonewoc, WI, which is about 50 miles north of Madison. I also have 2 other 1965 Mustangs (1 4speed Coupe, 1 rust free Califoria Coupe) on ebay currently for sale. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding!

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes
Wed, 27 Aug 2014This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with
Mon, 12 May 2014Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
