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 Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners
Fri, Dec 2 2016Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.
