For sale is my nice 1970 Ford Mustang Fastback. As you can see from the photos it has a Boss 429 appearance to it that always draws lots of positive comments.

Body: The body is 100% original Ford metal. There has been no rust repair. The lower front valance was replaced with a NOS piece by the previous owner, other than that, it looks to be all factory metal. There is no rust in the doors, floors, quarters, or any of those typical rust areas on these cars. Since this is an unmolested body, the car drives very solid. Door gaps are all nice, just a solid car.

Suspension: I have replaced the front springs and shocks with factory replacement units from Eaton Detroit Springs specific for a 1970 Mach 1 with a 351C. I feel this car has a balanced ride, not too soft, yet not too hard and aggressive.

Steering: The steering linkage is tight, the car does not wander going down the road or the interstate.

Wheels and Tires: Brand new 15x8 Magnum 500s and BFGoodrich Tires, same size all the way around for a nice aggressive stance.

Engine: 351C 4V with an Offenhauser aluminum intake and Hooker headers. This is the best starting muscle car I have ever owned. Turn the key and it fires, very dependable. The engine runs strong but I would classify it as a mild street performance build by the previous owner. Good oil pressure. I have always used 100% synthetic Valvoline oil and Wix filters from CarQuest with good results. It does not run hot but there is an auxiliary electric fan that you can turn on and off from inside the car should you feel it necessary. I have not needed to use it. There is a new one wire PowerMaster alternator on the car. It puts out over 110 amps so it can easily power anything you want to add to the car within reason. Flowmaster mufflers are under the car but they are not loud and obnoxious.

Transmission: T5 Ford 5 speed with cable clutch linkage. New flywheel, clutch disc, and throw out bearing. First gear is perfect for getting around a parking lot or show field without having to finesse the clutch. Of course, 5th gear is perfect out on the interstate to keep the revs down and your gas mileage up. This car was built to be a driver, and a good one at that. Very pleasurable to drive. I would recommend replacing the rear tail shaft seal as it does leak.

Interior: The seats were recovered by the previous owner and I have to admit that they are very, very nice. Super comfortable to sit in. The dash pad is in good shape. I installed the restored rim blow steering wheel (expensive) and I think it is of show quality. It does have the deluxe interior woodgrain gauge cluster with the clock delete passenger side panel. This creates a nice appearance in my opinion. The Philco AM radio is in the car and it has a new speaker under the dash. The radio worked last summer but it did not want to play this summer. It has received new carpet and underlayment.

Extra Parts: There are some extra parts that I have accumulated over the years that will go with this car. Most notable is a lower metal A/C dash unit. I kept it in case I ever wanted to add A/C but yet keep the factory look for the interior. There is a car cover that will go with the car.

I'm not trying to brag, but I have been very fortunate in that in the past I have been able to own a '69 Mach 1, 2 428CJ 1970 Mach 1s, and 3 Boss 302s. I am 100% honest when I say I have had more enjoyment driving this Fastback that I did out of any of the previous high dollar cars. I think you can tell from my description that this car is a nice driver that you can take to any show or cruise in, but it is not going to take the trophy away from any concourse restoration. Unfortunately a move out of state forces the sale.

The car is available for inspection with an appointment. $500 deposit thru PayPal due within 3 days of close of the auction. Balance due as cash at time of pick up or wire transfer before car is picked up. Feel free to email me with any questions. If you would like to speak on the phone, please give me your phone number and I will give you a call. Thank you.

Swedish car mag says Ford Mondeo is dangerously, illegally overweight [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Sweden's Teknikens Varld has a reputation for being very persnickety when it comes to auto safety testing, and its latest catch is the Mondeo Titanium Estate 2.0 TDCi 150 bhp S6 MPS (basically a station wagon variant of the Fusion). In addition to the model's mile-long name, it has another problem according to the Swedes, because its weight on the scales does not equal the official numbers for the vehicle. Teknikens Varld claims the wagon is dangerously overweight because it weighs in 4,145 pounds, while Ford officially lists its weight at 3,530 pounds. That 615-pound disparity means that if a family loads it to what they think is the model's gross vehicle weight, it will actually be too heavy, and therefore illegal to drive in Sweden. According to the magazine, when it tried doing this, the rear wheels scraped against the wells, and the estate failed the mag's legendary moose test. However, at 220 pounds over the limit, it passed the test. When reached for comment by Autoblog, Jay Ward, Senior Manager at Ford of Europe Product Communications, explained the reason for the deviation between the official numbers and the magazine's test: "We are aware of this, but this is not an issue that relates specifically to the safety of the Mondeo, but is in fact related to the way in which the cars are tested by the authorities. We provided an Ambiente model for the testing but the car that featured in the magazine test was a Titanium model which has a different weight. We are in discussion with the Swedish Transport Agency to change the framework so the real weight of the Titanium model is reported instead of the Ambiente model which will resolve the issue." Teknikens Varld is well-known for calling out automakers for perceived transgressions. Most recently it leveled criticisms against the all-wheel drive system in the Honda CR-V, and both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Porsche Macan failed its moose test.

Manage Settings. The new Ford Mondeo is dangerously overweight The new Ford Mondeo is a great car, which Teknikens Varld's test shows, but there is one problem – the weight. Mondeo weighs 279 kg more than Ford claims. With big load (ie family plus luggage) the car therefore becomes illegal to drive.
