For sale is my 1969 Ford Mustang Sportback. This is a base model car that originally came with a 351 Windsor V8 with a 2 barrel carb and an automatic transmission. Originally light green with black interior. Power steering, manual drum brakes. The car is 99% complete and is running and driving, but is probably in need of a complete restoration. This is a 44 year old car, so it will obviously need some work. I will try to give you a description that is as accurate as possible so there will be no surprises.

This is the history of the car that I know of. The car was originally sold in California and spent most of its life there before being moved to Nevada which is where I purchased it from. The gentleman I purchased the car from owned it for about ten years before selling it to a friend. That friend installed the awful rear fender flairs, painted the car blue, and added the after market gauges. He quickly blew the original motor and then sold it back to the guy I purchased it from. After buying the car back he promptly had a shop rebuild a different 351 Windsor motor and install it with an aftermarket 4 barrel carburetor. Obviously the car does not have the numbers matching block or original carb. When the motor was rebuilt the brakes were rebuilt and the exhaust replaced. The guy moved to Nevada and brought the car with him parking it under a car port on the side of his house. I believe it sat there for eight years until I found it. When I purchased the car earlier in the year I drained the old gas, rebuilt the carburetor, replaced the fuel filter and fuel pump, bought a new battery, changed the oil, and the car started right up. The carb needs to be adjusted because it needs some starter fluid to help it start on occasion. The motor sounds excellent and once it warms up it idles nicely. Transmission shifts in and out of gear with no problem, however I have never driven the car more than in and out of my driveway.

Exterior

Spending its life in California and Nevada saved the car from a lot of the standard rust issues a 44 year old car would typically suffer from, but it still has a few trouble spots. Both doors have cancer spots coming through. There are two small rust bubbles on the roof which are pictured below, they appear very minor. When those awful fiberglass fender flairs were installed they cut the rear quarters, so they will both need to be replaced. There appears to be a lot of bondo around the flairs that is cracking. You can see this in the pictures. I have crawled all over this car and can not find any other cancer. The floors, frame rails, rocker panels, trunk floor, trunk lid, hood, roof rails, fenders, tail panel, and front valance are all free of serious rust. The underside still has all the factory undercoating. Obviously there are bits of surface rust here and there, but nothing to worry about. The passenger door and passenger quarter panel both have dents. The drivers door and drivers fender were rubbing and caused some damage that will need to be repaired. The front valance looks like it has some bondo in it and the front edge of the hood has some damage. I believe the hood scoop has been added. The front bumper has a dent. The front hood trim and some of the trim around the front grill need to be replaced. The passenger side mirror base is broken but the mirror is in the trunk. Tail lights need to be replaced and the exterior chrome needs to be redone. The driver side window is broken and needs to be replaced. That's about as honest and detailed as I can be. Please take a look at the pictures and feel free to ask any other questions you have.

Interior

The interior needs some work. The dash pad is cracked and the original steering wheel is gone. The seat covers, door panels, carpet, headliner, and other odds and ends will need to be replaced. The car does have a fold down rear seat. Everything appears to be there but is 44 years old, you get the idea. 

I have included a picture of the fender tag so that you can decode it if you'd like. I am not a Mustang expert, but I have tried to describe the car as best as possible. I have a clear California title in hand. Please feel free to email or call me with any questions you may have. Buyer will be responsible for either picking up the car, or finding and hiring a car shipper. 

A $500 non refundable deposit will be due within 24 hours after the auction closes. Full payment must be made within 7 days from the close of the auction. Please do not bid on the car if you do not intend to pay.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.

Ford going bonkers at SEMA with 57 showcars

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Ford always shows up in force at the SEMA Show, but this year's tally of 57 custom-tuned cars, trucks and vans is more than we can ever recall the Blue Oval bringing. Ford will introduce 28 of its project vehicles in its "Dreamcase" ahead of next month's show. The first batch of eight you'll find here with the remaining vehicles trickling into public view over the next couple of weeks.
This first group of cars includes a Fiesta, four Fiesta ST hatchbacks and a trio of Mustang show cars styled and tuned to varying degrees all by different aftermarket companies. Tanner Foust, Nitto Tire, 3dCarbon and Ice Nine Group are some of the more familiar names affixed to these cars. Our favorite so far is the Hollywood Hot Rods Mustang convertible (shown above) with its removable aluminum top and methanol-injected, 750-horsepower 5.0-liter V8.
Scroll down for all the details on these Fiestas and Mustangs, and stay tuned for more info on Ford's SEMA line, which will include custom versions of the Focus ST, Fusion, Transit Connect, F-150 and Super Duty.

Woman reunited with stolen Mustang after 28 years

Sun, Dec 28 2014

An enthusiast Christmas story: Salinas, California resident Lynda Alsip bought a 1967 Ford Mustang in 1984 when she was 17 years old, having saved $800 after a summer of toil at a grocery store. She got a vanity plate that read "LYNDA67," for the year she was born, but she only got to enjoy the car for two years: in 1986, after a night out, someone stole it from her apartment complex. She hadn't seen it since. Then a man – another Salinas resident – tried to register the car at the DMV this year. He said he bought it as a project car in 1991, yet the DMV couldn't find any record of it. The DMV office sent the case of the untraceable car to the California Highway Patrol, where Officer Christopher Menchen dug into the records, and his search paid off. The officer located Alsip's stolen record report from 1986 and connected the Mustang to it's registered owner in 1986, who was Alsip's mother. The CHP found the forest green Mustang in the man's garage, and they figure it's been there since 1991. After waiting through the still-ongoing three-month investigation, the CHP reunited Alsip – now a wife and a mother of two – with her car on December 22. It's undriveable, but her original vanity plate is back on and she plans to restore it. The video above has the story.
