Available is a 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. It needs to be restored, but it's all there, including the original keys. All the FB interior pieces, fold down rear seat. All the glass and stainless is good, the doors close tight, the windows roll up and down good. The dash pad is original and nice for it's age. The original AM radio is still in place. The lights, wipers and heater blower all work. The entire interior is original...tired, but original (good headliner)! The trunk lid and hood don't have any rust. There is a dent in the passenger door in the center by the door fender gap.
It's a C Code with the original 289. Everything under the hood is original except the 4bbl and aluminum intake. The Mustang runs and drives good, it's quick. The brakes pull a little to the right. The manifold on the driver's side is cracked so there is an exhaust leak. It starts right up, doesn't seem to leak or burn any oil. The transmission shifts good, even the light works on the indicator. It has a decent set of magnums. The floors and rockers are in good condition. The rear quarter are rusted, so are the rear drop offs, torque boxes and front frame rails. The bottoms of the front quarters have some rust lower by the rocker trim. They are okay for a driver, but will need to be worked or replaced if the car gets the restoration it deserves. Every body panel appears to be original. The best I can tell it's only been repainted once. Comes with new pair of front frame rails, and a new left repop quarter skin, and a bag of misc parts.
The reason I bought it is because it's a Red fastback with matching fender stamp, door tag, and title...and it's all there!!! There really isn't anything in this price range. It's the cheapest running FB on Ebay. Almost everything is restored and expen$ive, or it's a non running project, a turd, or coupe conversion. It's a running-driving vehicle you can play with and work on at the same time. I'm sorry the pictures suck, it was getting dark and a front was blowing in.
Ask questions before you bid. All questions will be answered. Sold as is with no warranty. It has a clear title. No or negative feedback bidders will be retracted. I reserve the right to end the auction early because I plan to list locally as well. Send me your number if you want to talk. Thanks. Also, I had to relist because someone hit the buy it now an hour after I listed it.

Man turns Ford Fiesta into a one-car band
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The one-man band is a rather ridiculous idea, drawing up images of one person attempting to manipulate several instruments, at once, in a vain attempt at creating music. It's usually represented by silly scenes like this. Interestingly, the concept isn't much more successful when the "man" in "one-man band" is replaced with "car," as we see in this video.
It seems that someone rigged up and edited (699 times, we might add) a Ford Fiesta, a bucket, 12 PVC pipes and the natural sounds that a car makes to come up with a song. Now, we don't recognize the tune, so we've no idea if this is a cover or an original piece. And while it's hardly Beethoven, we have to admire the amount of effort the "conductor" went to in his attempt to turn a subcompact car into a musical instrument(s). Take a look (or listen) below for the entire video.
New Ford Police Interceptor tech protects cops' backsides
Mon, 22 Jul 2013It was only a matter of time before law enforcement agencies would realize the potential of driver-assist technology for use in their Ford Police Interceptors, and, now that they have, those back-up cameras and radar systems won't be used just for parking, but for security, as well.
The surveillance mode system works when the camera or radar detects movement from behind the vehicle, and if it does when it's activated, an alarm will alert the officer inside the car, the driver's side window will roll up and the doors will lock, protecting the officer from an unwanted intrusion. The officer, of course, has the option to turn surveillance mode off, mainly in urban areas where pedestrians would constantly set the alarm off, and it can only be activated when the police car is in park.
Randy Freiburger, Ford's police and ambulance fleet supervisor, came up with the patent-pending idea when researching the needs of police officers and riding along with them, during which time he realized officers would be safer with an extra set of eyes watching the area behind their cars, especially at night or when they're completing paperwork, using the in-car computer or handling a radar gun. "Unfortunately, there are people with bad intentions who sneak up on police officers," he says.
