Here is a golden opportunity to own a true, exceptionally rare, original 1967 Ford Mustang GTA convertible. This car is verified by a Marti report which is in the pictures section. The original Virginia 67 license plates are included and this is a numbers matching vehicle. This in our opinion is the best color combination that this car could come in, stunning Dark Moss Green over a black interior really makes this car stand out. Its a very recent repaint and new interior, less than a year old. We have actually done a few more things since, we just replaced all the dash component panels and instrument bezel cluster along with the carpet as it had bunched in a few areas and didn't look right so we just replaced it completely. All the dash gauges, horn, blinkers, lights are all in perfect working order. The engine compartment is detailed to show quality. The car tracks and drives flawlessly without any clunks, noises, squeaks, ect... The vehicle is garage kept and in tip top mechanical and cosmetic condition. The engine and transmission have had a fresh rebuild less than 10,000 miles. This is a factory 'A' code 4bbl car and has the rare dealer installed cobra intake on it and a new Holley 4bbl sits on top. The car has a rust free body and frame, I took the best pictures I could without a lift. The pans have been replaced on the car and were flawlessly installed. The cars brightwork is nice all the way around, this is a non-rocker panel molding car. Convertible top and back window are new, its a factory power top car and works seamlessly. Again the interior has been gone through, door panels, carpet, seats, dash panels, ect...This is a power disc brake car, has manual steering and no A/C. This is not a trailer queen car, this is a car you can go and show and not worry about a thing, I have collected Mustangs over the last 20 years and this is a car that is truly one to be proud of and a joy to drive. I have been involved with the Mustang Club of America for many years and used to be a Gold Card judge many years ago and if I were looking for a rare car for a good price then look no further. These GTA's, true GTA's, don't come up on the market often and when they do they get bought up pretty quick. I am confident that whoever buys this car will truly enjoy this car over the coming years and not have to worry about a thing, this is a rock solid gorgeous car.

As with anything this car is 46 years old and does not come with a warranty, shipping would need to be arranged from Clarksville, TN, we can give you a name of a good shipper we have dealt with in the past if you need a recommendation. A non-refundable deposit of $500 will be required at auctions end. We have a modest reserve set and is very realistic, again these cars don't come up often. We will be at the Mustang 50th celebration in Charlotte next week, we are not bringing the car but if the winning bidder is attending we can conduct the business end of the deal there, i.e. titles, bill of sale, payment. Good luck and definately a car you won't be disappointed in.

American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings

Fri, 10 May 2013

Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.

2015 Galpin Ford GTR1

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

Last 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 settles class action suit over defective Navistar diesel engines

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

The 2003 Ford F-Series Super Duty (shown above) introduced the 6.0-liter Power Stroke diesel supplied by Navistar, and while that is an engine Ford would love to forget, it's now one step closer to putting that particular problem behind it. Automotive News is reporting that Ford has settled a class-action lawsuit brought on by problems with this engine that started right out of the gate and ultimately broke up the 30-year relationship between Ford and Navistar.
Owners and lessees of 2003-2007 Super Duty trucks and E-Series vans equipped with the 6.0-liter Power Stroke are eligible for deductible reimbursements of between $50 and $200 from the original five-year/100,000-mile engine warranty, while Ford is paying out as much as $825 for out-of-warranty engine repairs. These repairs may include the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, EGR valve, oil cooler, fuel injectors and turbocharger, but are only covered if the components failed before six years or 135,000 miles.
In total, Ford has agreed to pay about 50 percent of the value of the repairs and deductibles paid by its customers who submit a claim before the end of this year, and $150,000 is going to the 16 named plaintiffs in the case; Navistar was not included in the lawsuit.
