Offered today is one 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Fastback 428 Cobra Jet R code .First to go was the 57 T bird than the 53 Ford F 100. This car was last as it was
hoped that health improvements would come and enjoyment of this beautiful car would be. As this is a muscle car
Richie is going to stick with his Mustang 04 GT convertible automatic with power steering and AC.
This 1969 Mach 1 was originally sold and driven here on Long Island New York. Always garaged. This Mach 1 has been
driven very little since 1979. Original color is candy apple red with a black interior. This car is very solid. The
mileage is just 94,100. The frame and floors front to back are rock solid as the pictures show. Richie is the third
owner who took possession of this car 15 years ago. A full restoration was always intended. The engine,
transmission and brakes were rebuilt. note it is originally a 3 speed stick now an automatic. The stick pedals are
still in the car. The Mach 1 was driven 500 miles over the next 4 years and than the car was put into storage.
Always fully insured and registered every year. Driven a few miles every year until 2012. After which it had had
been run every year, still the gas went bad in the tank and has been run now out of a gas can. I ran it yesterday
and it is a smooth quiet engine. It has about 500 miles on it!
The original interior has a beautiful headliner, original seats are still looking good. The red insert carpets
have to be cleaned but always had floor mats protecting them and still look really nice. The original door panels
are in great shape too, with minor cracks on the drivers side. The seat belts are present with bright brass rollers
and very nice plastic covers. This car is a perfect candidate for a survivor /driver. OR a most perfect foundation
for a top concourse restoration as it is very original.
The engine was rebuilt and I have pictures of the job. This is a COBRA JET engine. The C6 was rebuilt and
although it has not seen the road lately it does not leak and it goes into gear. The rear brake line is leaking and
prevents the car from being driven. I must say also that the gas in the tank went bad and has been run from an
external gas can. I can replace the tank and repair the brake line if Richie and the new owner want me to.

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers

Sun, Mar 29 2015

As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
