1969 Mach 1 Super Cobra Jet SCJ. 1 of 1 per Marti Report. Solid original car. What I have been told about the car is ordered by a aerospace engineer in California where it stayed until 2012. Shortly after he pulled the original engine and stored it and installed a 427 Side Oiler short block. The car was only hauled back and forth to the drag strip. Car set for years and then they guy was killed in a accident in 2003 so car was left to his brother. His brother had no money so car set until 2012 and I acquired it via debt he owed. Since car and motor set for so many years the SCJ motor was torn down and gone through, 16 new stainless steel valves were installed along with hardened seats. Car is solid solid solid. I replaced front and rear valance just because they were dinged up at didn't want to spend hours straightening. I believe we have them. I also put rear bumper because had a ding and peeled chrome. all other trim is original. All weather strip on doors and roof rail are original to the car. VIN on dash, door, apron and block all match. Transmission VIN was not legible but I have no reason to believe it isn't original to car. Interior is 100% original except dash pad. Seat have no rips and carpet has no holes or heavy wear. Driver floor mat (in carpet) has wear under clutch pedal but it isn't worn through by any means. Rear end has 3:91 gears. Seat belts are faded and ends need cleaned up but would not want to do to much since survivor car. Original spare in trunk. The shifter is out of a 1970 so it is Hurst which I am sorry was installed because they where better shifters. Fold down rear seat, AM FM radio power brakes and steering. ZERO RUST car. pics of undercarriage are a little dirty.
Odometer shows 2032 miles and I believe them to be true and correct. This is a very righteous car and a true survivor. We painted outside skin only and the trunk and jambs remain in original finish. Replaced the exhaust system, belts, hoses and smog. Open to partial trades but MUST be rare or very valuable so I can resell and you MUST bring some cash to table. I don't believe there are many like this survivor around any where. Call or email with questions 918-704-1046 Dale I am more than happy to help assist in shipping at buyers expense.

Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.

Martin Leach's secret EV startup revealed: NextEV

Wed, Sep 2 2015

More details have surfaced about ex-Ford executive Martin Leach and the electric-vehicle start-up he's helping to lead. The company is called NextEV, and it's based in Shanghai, Reuters says. Among the fledgling company's investors is Hillhouse Capital, which also has a stake in San Francisco-based car-hailing service Uber Technologies. NextEV is also partnered up with first season Formula E champs China Racing, and that the team will be running a NextEV drivetrain this upcoming season. Late last month, Leach confirmed to Reuters that he was working with an electric-vehicle startup which had employees in both California and China, but he didn't get into the nitty gritty. Now, the company is said to include former BMW senior designer Juho Suh and former Tesla Motors senior program director John Thomas. And although no details have been disclosed about funding levels, there are hints that it may be substantial given possible Chinese backing and an effort to develop a high-end electric vehicle for in China for the domestic market. The group is working on an electric vehicle that it says may debut as early as next year. The supercar will have more than 1,000 horsepower, and will be able to go from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour (62 miles per hour) in less than three seconds, suggesting that the company – like so many others Â– is looking to out-Tesla Tesla. Leach left his post as chief operating officer of Ford of Europe in 2003, even after being named man of the year by Automobile magazine. He subsequently ran Maserati, then worked last year for Hong Kong-based Hybrid Tech Holdings. That company unsuccessfully put in a bid for the assets of then-bankrupt high-end plug-in vehicle maker Fisker Automotive.

Malcolm Gladwell reflects on engineering, recalls, and compromise

Thu, Apr 30 2015

Journalist Malcolm Gladwell has made a career taking on big, complicated topics and humanizing them to make the unwieldy understandable. He has already done this in bestsellers like The Tipping Point and Outliers, and now he has brought the same approach to automotive recalls in a long piece for The New Yorker. The article titled The Engineer's Lament is framed around an interview with the former head of Ford's recall office about the famous Ford Pinto campaign where the position of the compact's fuel tank could cause it to explode in rear-end collisions. Plus, there are detours into Toyota's unintended acceleration cases and the General Motors ignition switch problem. While all the history is illuminating, the heart of the story comes from an examination at the thought process of engineers, and how their thinking differs from other professions. Gladwell comes off as sympathetic to auto engineers in this piece. While he admits that they often approach problems in a sterile way, the writer doesn't try point that out as a failing. It's merely a fact to be understood. The story itself is quite lengthy, but well worth a read if you have the time for an insiders view into how these recalls are assessed on the inside.
