1966 Mustang Coupe, 4-Speed Top Loader
This beautifully ground up restored Mustang was purchased in 1966 for the first owner's daughter as a highschool gift. It began as a C-4 automatic and the A/C system you see in the pics was dealer installed in 1966. A product of the San Jose factory, California car its entire life. It was sold to my buddy in 1976 where he fully intended to restore someday. Well, I purchased the vehicle from him after sitting for 37 years untouched, his wife drove the vehicle 1976 - 1980 and then they parked it in their backyard. They unfortunately left the windows cracked to make sure it would always be aired out which resulted in me having to replace the floor boards which was the only rust in the car. The trunk was perfect and the rest of the vehicle was nice as well.
We stripped the car which was in original faded Raven Black down to metal and were pleasantly surprised to find ZERO rust or bondo anywhere on the whole body and frame. This project turned out to be a Frame Up restoration, the bodywork and paint was performed by Rick Flanders an autobody veteran and his comments are that he has never seen a car so straight with no damage or rust at all.
The 289 original motor was pulled and disassembled, bottom end and top end were extremely tight and clean, we installed a new timing chain and total gasket kit, had all exterior motor parts powder coated, including timing cover, all a/c and alternator brackets and reassembled. The original valve covers were painted in mustang dark blue.

I will be purchasing a new steering wheel, (Choice of Grant GT black or wood wheel, Buyer can choose). Will install all the floor body plugs, I have them just haven't installed yet. You may notice an oil drip on the bottom of the bell housing, my oil sending unit was leaking prior to the pic's, I didn't notice it until I already shot the pic's. It has been fixed and there are no leaks.
The Paint Job is 4 weeks old, PPG Raven Black Base Coat (factory matching color)
PPG Clear Coat, Color sanded, buffed three stages and final polish blue pad to create a beautiful original Raven Black finish. As you can see from the pic's, this paint job turns heads. There was one booboo while the buffing was taking place, the buffer handle knicked the driver top fender so the painter had to touch it up, I didn't include a pic but I am addressing the only flaw I know of in the paint itself. Other than that, this was a $9,300.00 paint job and took them 6 working days to complete.
The total restoration includes in excess of 500 man hours with meticulous detail work throughout the project. Receipts alone for the total restoration exceed $18,000.00 not including the purchase of the Straight Factory Black on Black Mustang Coupe. My buddy I purchased the mustang from installed a three speed in 1976 which I quickly pulled, then purchased a factory Top Loader along with a factory Hurst shifter and upgraded to a four-speed. I pulled the cover off, all gears are perfect and in tact, Tranny shifts perfectly, tight, smooth. The shifter nob is a vintage nob with the correct shift pattern engraved on the top. The engine had a two barrel intake which I also removed, purchased an original 4v intake and installed along with the 4-Barrel 650cfm Edlebrock. I had the air cleaner powder coated and I do have the snorkel as well, just not installed but will go with the sale.
We test drove the Mustang and it runs purrrrr-fect, very strong and responsive, turns well, brakes well and overall is a blast to drive. A/C is installed but not operating, all parts are there if you need a/c in your area. Original radio, stations come in with tuner but buttons do not engage. This is one excellent 1966 Mustang 4-Speed and whoever wins this auction will be very pleased.....Enjoy the pics and if you require more pics, I took over 200 shots of the entire restoration but ebay only allows 24 pics when they host the auction. Send your email address if you'd like more pics, I have shots of the body when sanded down to bare metal, then shot in primer sealer, base coat, clear coat all the way through....

2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
Ford, Renault have surprises in store for Le Mans
Tue, Jun 9 2015All those prototype and GT racers won't be the only attraction catching our eye at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend. Two major automakers have also confirmed that they've got new metal to unveil. And while they're not saying exactly what they'll be, we've got some pretty good ideas. First up is Ford, which has announced a "major Ford Performance news announcement" on Friday. Chairman Bill Ford, CEO Mark Fields, and product development chief Raj Nair will be on hand for the announcement set to take place on Friday at 10:00 AM Eastern. The Blue Oval isn't saying just what it has in store, but the widespread speculation has been that it will present a racing version of the new Ford GT at Le Mans a good half century since the original GT40 raced there. Meanwhile, Renault has announced that it is marking the 60th anniversary of the Alpine marque at Le Mans this Saturday. The French automaker has been working on reviving the dormant marque, and looks poised to finally reveal its new sports car at its iconic home endurance race this weekend. Tipped to be called the Alpine AS1, the new sports car will bring the marque back out of retirement in a more real way than the ELMS-winning LMP2 prototype ever could. Expect it to be based on the mid-engined chassis underpinning the Renault RS 01 spec racer, but built for the road.

NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall
Wed, 05 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.
