The Mustang had been in storage since the early 1970's.
Although the car was in very good condition, it was dis-assembled in preparation for paint. I don't know
how long it was in this condition. It still had bias tires, which I still have, on the original styled steel rims.
When I got the car home, I found that it was in excellent condition. I did replace some parts like the carpet,
tires, and some of the small chrome pieces. The car started right up but needed the original carb rebuilt. I
replaced the gas tank and it has been a great runner ever since. The car was painted shortly after I got it and
had no rust. I did have the right rear quarter replaced at that time with one off a doner car. The quarter had
been damaged at some point and the body man felt that replacing it was the best option. It was painted in its
original Prairie Bronze. In the years since I have replaced the rims with a wider version although I have the
originals as well. Last year I replaced the door panels because the handle part on the drivers side was slightly
frayed. I have the originals. I recently had the carb rebuilt again. the car had 29,000 miles on it when I
purchased it and has 31,423. I believe this mileage to be original to the car but have nothing to document this.
The seat covers and headliner are original. I replaced the valve covers with aftermarket gold ones because the
original owner had painted the originals blue. You can see the gold paint on the originals. I will include the
originals as well as any other parts I have with the sale of this car. The car is missing a piece of trim that
goes around the back seat on the passenger side but other than that, I believe everything is all there.
This car came with the original GT package with the fog lights, duel exhaust, and other GT options. It has power
steering and disc brakes in the front. It has the gauge package but the clock is not working. It has the fold down
rear seat. Basically it has every option that was offered with an A code fastback in 1965. Everything is original
on this car and it runs fantastic.
Rarely does something this original and in this kind of condition become available. Don't let this car pass you
by.

Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
Spy shooter claims proof of upcoming aluminum Ford F-Series Super Duty
Thu, 26 Jun 2014Ford has already confirmed that the 2015 F-150 (pictured above) was just the beginning for its more extensive use of aluminum. CEO Alan Mulally said it himself during the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. We've even already seen the future Raptor testing with an aluminum body. But a recent discovery from an intrepid spy photographer might indicate that the lightweight metal is coming to the Blue Oval's Super Duty pickups in their upcoming generation, as well.
According to Automotive News, a spy shooter in Colorado spotted a prototype for the next-gen F-350 testing. He happened to have a magnet on hand and got close enough to check the truck out. When he held it up to the metal in the bed, it didn't stick, which signaled to him a switch from steel to aluminum.
Obviously, this claim raises some questions. Given that it was a test vehicle, one possibility is that the Blue Oval is just evaluating the feasibility of switching to aluminum for the Super Duty trucks, not necessarily committed to it yet. Ford has been testing it quite exhaustively, after all. In fact, much of the rest of the truck in question was covered in camouflage, so it's possible that the magnet failed to work along the rest of the body not because it was aluminum, but because it wasn't powerful enough to get through the disguising material. Thus, the lightweight metal's use could be far less substantial than on the new F-150. Still, it was a clever idea for the cameraman to check things out and might have given us the first hint about brand's next heavy-duty models.
