Up for auction is a true 74k original miles, matching numbers J code 4 speed deluxe car that was special ordered and is likely a 1 of 1. There were only 2800 1968 J code 4spds to begin with, not taking into account all the options this car has. Some of those options include: Factory air (have all parts) Deluxe interior Upper and lower consoles Visibility group 300:1 ratio rear end And more.. Disc brakes were added later to give this car more stopping power. This car was a one owner car until 2000 when the owner died, and the car went to a distant cousin who owned it until 2011. I am the fourth owner and have lots of receipts and some that support its low mileage. In the pics you will see lots of paperwork, including the original warranty card. I have also included pics of the partial VINs stamped into the block and transmission case. The transmission still looks brand new inside! This car has zero rust and all the panels are amazing. Its only had one repaint and is in matte black right now needing almost no body work before paint. This car is absolutely rust free and looks like panels are original with only a small section of sheet metal replacement done in the engine compartment years ago. I know what I have and if you are into these cars you do too. This car is original, and although it is in good shape it could use some freshening up as far as refinishing some of the interior chrome, minor trim pieces, and things like that. The car needs a new grill piece and trim. To have this car with the paperwork and such that I have is truly rare. The entire front suspension has already been rebuilt with grab a trak from mustangs plus. The engine and transmission are solid, and with the mad ignition, long tubed headers and full flowmaster exhaust, this thing is awesome. This thing runs and drives great. It sounds amazing. I will try to get a video up before the auction is over.   Please contact me with any questions.

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

"Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love."
