1965 Ford Mustang Fastback A Code on 2040-cars
Saint Benedict, Pennsylvania, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : brian.loberg@zoho.com .
1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. This is an "A" Code car which meant it came from the factory with the 289 V8 with 4 Barrel Carb option.
Engine: This engine is a 1965 Ford 289 (not original to this vehicle but correct motor) stroked into a 331 stroker. Bored .30 over and the deck has been leveled. I sent this to a build shop to have it built. It had literally everything done. SCAT 331 Stroker kit installed, Edelbrock Aluminum heads, THUMPER cam (which hits super hard), Holley Double Pumper, and all exterior items such as intake mainfifold, alternator are chrome .
Exhaust: Chrome long tube headers with flowmaster Exhaust with stock style baffles coming out of the rear vallace.
Transmission: I believe this is the original transmission to this car. It is a Toploader Speed with a hurst shifter. All seals etc were replaced on this. After the car is warmed up, it tends to pop out of nd gear unless you hold the shifter down. I never had a problem just holding the shifter down and never investigated the matter further.
Interior: Everything redone on the inside except the headliner and fold down seat. Dash and seats look great. Right rear interior quarter panel has a hole in it from where somebody put a speaker in. I believe it is the orignial panel so I never replaced it. The headliner needs to be replaced as it is ripped in the back. All gauges work properly except the speedometer recently went. I checked it out and the cable was melted by the header. Rear fold down seat is missing some parts. Looks good to me so I never bothered with it. Blower was never hooked up for defrost etc as I never drove this car in the rain or questionable weather.
Body: This car is painted FLAT Black. It is how I got it. All of the exterior chrome is new and I really liked the way it looked with the flat black. You can tell there was not much prepwork done before they painted this. You see marks here and there when looking close. Mainly on the trunk lid and roof. One quarter panel looks like it was reparied around the wheel well. I am INCLUDING Two NOS reproduction quarter panels that I found in a barn. Also including the original hood. This has a fiberglass shelby hood with steel frame. New Floor Pans on this. Underside looks clean.
Suspension: NEW rear leaf springs, shackles, and shocks. NEW Front coils, and shocks. All suspension is factory original spec.
Rear: Factory 8 inch Rear. Restored.
Other NEW Parts: NEW Gas tank, New fuel lines front to back, New brakes all the way around, New brank lines front to back, new resevoir, New american racing 17 inch wheels with performance tires (approx 500 miles on wheels and tires), New Grill , New gas cap, New front and rear valance.

Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks
Fri, 19 Sep 2014It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.
How privacy fears are driving automakers in the age of the connected car [w/poll]
Wed, Aug 27 2014A recent GAO report concluded car companies don't adequately disclose how and why they share location data. As cars collect and store more and more data about the whereabouts of their drivers, automakers are responding to critics who say they should be more transparent about how those details are used. Ford is hiring a global privacy policy attorney to craft the company's customer privacy policies in the era of connected and autonomous cars. "In this emerging space, there is an important need to address customer privacy policies," reads a job description posted on the "people and careers" portion of the company's website. "As part of our compliance and ethics organization at Ford, this person will have an immediate and direct impact in shaping existing and future policy and corporate thinking in this area." Ford is creating the new position, based at its Dearborn headquarters, at a time technology advances are outpacing privacy protections. Earlier this year, a report from the federal government concluded car companies don't adequately disclose to motorists how and why they share location data. That report, from the Government Accountability Office, found many car companies did not describe how they shared location data, did not allow consumers to request their data be deleted and that there was a "wide variation" in how car companies retained vehicle-specific or identifiable location data. It noted there is increased risk of location data being used in ways "consumers did not intend." Ford was one of 10 companies the GAO surveyed while compiling its report. Customers are opting to share that data largely by using features like maps and turn-by-turn direction that are run by a vehicle's telematics unit. Depending on the company, it can be unclear how that data is collected, retained or shared. At the time the GAO report was issued, AAA, the nation's largest motoring club, urged carmakers to be more transparent in how they handle data and to offer stronger security protections. Shaping Autonomous Car Regulations At Ford, the new hire could change how the company handles that data. According to the job description, the successful applicant will, "demonstrate visionary thinking around privacy strategy – imagine how consumer and employee expectations around privacy may evolve and how business should adapt, develop approaches that maximize the benefit of data sharing for consumers and business, etc." (Emphasis from Ford).
