1970 Ford Mustang on 2040-cars
Tres Pinos, California, United States
If you have more questions or want more details please email : millicentraugust@gmx.us . I am selling my 1970 Boss 302. It is a real G code Boss 302. It has been for sale several times by different
dealers. I was too busy to sell it my self and had two separate dealers take it on consignment. They all assured me
they could sell it and then proceeded to price it too high (one had it at $86k and the 2nd had it at $77k). I told
them the price was too high but they didn't believe me. It is appraised at $59k. The reason for the lower price on
this beautifully restored Boss is that it does not have the numbers matching engine. It is a correct year Boss 302
engine but not the numbers matching that it came with. The transmission & rear end are the correct numbers matching
items.
A little history on my Boss. I have owned this for four years. It was a "barn find" out of Washington State. The
3rd owner (I am the 4th owner) had the engine rebuilt. Less than a month after the engine was completed, he passed
away. His widow parked the car in their garage and left it there for 7 years. We believe the block was swapped with
the current block when it was rebuilt. Unfortunately the wife does not know and the shop that did the rebuild is
not sure. The engine runs very strong and it is a joy to drive. It has been driven aprx 1,500 miles since rebuilt.
When I received the car the wife, it was rough and typical shape for a car that has sat for 7 years. The interior
was in need of restoration, the clutch needed replacement and the repaint by a previous owner was not correct and
flaking off. We took it down to bare metal and repainted it to the high gloss it now has. All original decals were
replaced and the bumpers & trim was all repaired and re-chromed.
The distributor was updated to electronic ignition. Original factory power steering was added. A non-functioning
rev-limiter was installed. The shaker hood was added by a previous owner. The original radio was updated to a new
radio that has the look of an older radio but has newer features including Ipod input.
It is an amazing car that is what I would call a higher end driver, that will provide years of fun for the new
owner. Every time I drive it, it draws a crowd. It has been entered into 3 car shows and won 4 trophies, including
the San Diego Mustangs by the Bay show where there was several hundred Mustangs entered.
It is time for me to move on

Toyota fears supplier pressure in Australia with GM pull out
Wed, 11 Dec 2013With Ford and General Motors both announcing an end to production in Australia, the country's auto industry is in a bad way. With the exit of two big players, there's increased concern that a third Australian manufacturer, Toyota, will be forced out, as well.
"We are saddened to learn of GM Holden's decision. This will place unprecedented pressure on the local supplier network and our ability to build cars in Australia," Toyota Australia said in a statement. The GM closure of Holden production will be the direct end to 2,900 jobs, but will also force a dramatic reduction in the size of the country's supplier network, as there will simply be fewer cars to build.
In the same statement, Toyota Australia said it would work with suppliers and local government to figure out whether continuing production Down Under was even feasible. According to Automotive News, a representative for the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union told reporters it was "highly likely" that Toyota would also close up shop within the next few years.
Galpin Auto Sports and Fisker turn the Mustang into a Rocket in LA [w/video]
Thu, Nov 20 2014Galpin Auto Sport and Henrik Fisker made big promises about the Rocket before its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show today, calling it the "ultimate American muscle car." Now that this 725-horsepower carbon-fiber Ford Mustang has officially been revealed, we've now got a chance to see if their vision backs up all the bluster. The Rocket is based off the latest 2015 Mustang, but the entire exterior design has been substantially reworked by Fisker. "This is a project born out of passion, it's a dream come true, to have the opportunity to 'touch' a Mustang and apply my design ideas to it," he says in the model's announcement. The biggest changes come up front, where Fisker has added a gaping hexagonal grille with a polished bar running and two nearly hidden driving lights at the top corners. Long nostrils run down each side of the hood, taking their inspiration from the 1968 Shelby GT500. The Rocket's design also emphasizes its scalloped sides, which run back to functional ducts at the rear to cool the Brembo Grand Turismo brakes. When checking out the Rocket from the rear, it's easy to spot the wider fenders that are beautifully blended into the integrated spoiler. The interior has been left mostly alone beyond some eye-grabbing red leather and carbon-fiber trim. Under the hood, Galpin spokesperson Nathan Hoyt has confirmed to Autoblog that the Rocket employs a 5.0-liter V8 with a Whipple supercharger which can be called to attention with a six-speed manual gearbox. It took only a few months for the vehicle to go from conception to reality. Fisker showed Galpin President Beau Boeckmann early sketches at this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, and the two parties went from there. "When Henrik showed me his ideas, I got chills - it's literally the most beautiful Mustang I have ever seen," says Boeckmann in the company's release. Production is set to begin in December, with deliveries starting in early 2015. There's no set production total in mind for now, but Hoyt tells Autoblog that the price will be "just over $100,000." Scroll down to read all of the details about Fisker and Galpin's Rocket.
2016 Ford Mustang SVT hides big power under its domed hood
Tue, 17 Jun 2014With a number of 2015 Ford Mustang versions finally available to configure, the fun of speculating about next year's high-performance 'Stang can now begin. It looks like Ford has something seriously fun planned too. One of our spy photographers just snapped some fresh pics of the 2016 Mustang SVT, which is believed to be hiding the final body shape under all of that heavy camouflage.
Ford clearly doesn't want prying eyes looking at its new pride and joy. It would be hard to put much more obfuscation on a car than this one wears - it even has mesh baffles around the exhausts to conceal how many there are and panels over the wheels to hide their design. However, the Blue Oval can't keep everything a secret. The biggest clue that something special is hidden underneath is the massive hood bulge and vent in front of it. Clearly, whatever is under there is hungry for cool air. The shape of the camo indicates that there may be fender vents on each side, and there are also obscured outlets behind the front wheels likely to pull cool air through the brakes. At the rear, the concealment does its job, making it hard to observe any big changes. The fact that Ford wants it kept such a secret might indicate something, though.
A few photos of the interior show far less cover than the outside. You can easily make out the model's 6,500 rpm redline with a possible 7,000 rpm over-rev function. The big Recaro sport seats also look quite supportive.
