1966 - Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Good Hart, Michigan, United States
Serious buyers only please! Up for auction is my beautiful 1966 Mustang Fastback. I have owned the car for just over two years and have truly enjoyed every day. Even now I am reluctant to sell it, but I have a once in my lifetime chance at another dream car that I have decided to go after. The fastback has its original 289 2-barrel engine with 118k miles; 3 pumps on the gas pedal and it fires up every time, no smoke, no noise. To my knowledge the engine has never been apart. I added the COBRA valve covers and TRI-Y headers. It originally came with a 3 speed manual, but has been upgraded to a 1967 close-ratio Toploader 4 speed manual. It is a NON air condition car, manual steering and brakes. It has fresh brakes and brake lines; new fuel tank and lines installed by previous owner. The car had been in storage for many years, so for safety reasons these items were done. Tires are in excellent condition . One of my dream cars is a 1966 Shelby GT350 – since I don’t have 125K+ I opted for a tribute car. All of the Shelby parts added to this car were bought from Tony Branda and are as follows: GT350 White Side Stripes/Decals COBRA 71/2 Quart Aluminum Oil Pan Grille emblem GT350 Gas cap GT350 rear panel emblem Rotunda mirror ¼ plexi window kit Side scoops Fiberglass with steel support Hood Air cleaner COBRA Valve covers Hood pins Shelby serial plate GT350 Steering Wheel center Cobra Tachometer Shelby 10 Spoke wheels and center caps (bought elsewhere) AUTHENTIC RAY BROWN drivers side racing seat belt The car looks fantastic in pictures and from 10 feet away. The paint is showing its age, but I actually think it looks kinda neat with the “patina”… I highly recommend prospective buyers to see the car in person so there are no disappointments. The interior of the car is extremely nice … it still wears its original black standard interior. The headliner has a hole at the top passenger front, but is hidden by the passenger side visor when up – looks like a mouse had fun chewing it at some point while in storage…no odors or anything at all either. What the car will need at some point if you want to invest in it: Paint job, lower quarter panel repair (see pictures), and dent removal from top of passenger fender (see picture). This car has all original sheetmetal (except hood of course).

2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
Ford recalls 2017 Lincoln Continental for headlight problem
Tue, Oct 11 2016Ford Motor Co. is already recalling the 2017 Lincoln Continental for a headlight problem, the automaker announced Tuesday. The HID headlights may have been assembled with LED lens that don't have the correct lens optics to meet federal visibility requirements for turn signals. Ford says it is unaware of any accidents related to the issue. The company will replace the headlamp assemblies, if needed. The safety compliance recall covers 1,876 Continentals built from June 14 to Sept. 23 at Ford's Flat Rock factory south of Detroit. Most of the cars are in the United States; 49 are in Canada, and one is in a federalized territory. Only about 300 cars are in consumers' hands, a spokesperson said. Customers can use a Lincoln service program where dealers will pick up their Continental, fix it for free, and return it, the spokesperson said. Lincoln has high hopes for the Continental. The flagship sedan uses one of Lincoln's most iconic names and features a luxurious interior, available 400-horsepower V6 engine, and safety features like adaptive cruise control and a 360-degree camera. Lincoln recently announced an elaborate marketing campaign shot by renown photographer Annie Leibovitz to generate interest in the Continental. In a separate recall, Ford also said Tuesday that 60 Edges from the 2015-16 model year are being recalled to update their antilock braking system module.

Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24
Tue, 01 Oct 2013It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9.
