1973 Ford Mustang Fastback (aka Sportsroof) with running 351W, Ford Toploader 4 Speed Transmission w/ restored Hurst four speed shifter.  This is truly a "head turner" Mustang, sounds very awesome and fires up right away.  This was my project car until I lost my Job and now my loss is your gain. Only thing left to do is connect the Transmission linkage rods adjust the breaks and a away you go.  I drove this car before I started restoration 3 years ago and spent over $15k(isn't this always the story) so I am not making any money on this one.  I am not a used car dealer so no "smoke and mirrors", what you see pictured here is what you get and.  I have hundreds of pictures that I have taken over the last few years I have had this Car.  Pictures show rear Wildwood Disc breaks but I have since installed new rear drum breaks so this will come with a set of NEW Wildwood rear Disc breaks that I spent over $800.00 for then decided to go back to original drums and Front Discs.  This is NOT a numbers matching Car!, original Frame and body, but not original Transmission or Motor.  Marty Report says this Mustang was Yellow, Ford 302 w/ 3 Speed Tranny. This was not restored to win a Trophy...(at least not the kind of trophies at Car shows!) 

 

Body/Interior:  No accidents or major dings, No rust and New Paint inside and out,  Black with silver lemans stripes, not a professional paint Job but looks awesome at 10 feet, some buffer burn through marks that don't show up on pictures.  I have lots of pictures of stripping down and going back together.  New Windshield, New Interior front and back seats, New carpet, no center console for that "four on the floor" feel.  This car has been in heated Aircraft Hangar for last two out of three years I have owned it being worked on inside and out.  Missing interior Window pillars.  Headliner is good. Electrical all seems to work except for tach needs to be connected and Heater needs to be reconnected.  Power driver seat works great. Stereo sound is awesome.  Trunk and Floor pans sprayed with "Raptor" coating.

 

Motor:  351W That starts right up and sounds very awesome with New Sanderson Headers and New Flowmaster Exhaust. Receipt available showing rebuild and was taken down and decided not to rebuild it again so Heads cleaned and just needs final tune.  See pictures.

 

Please ask questions, Serious buyers only, Bid now and don't lose out on this Muscle Car.  Vehicle being sold as-is and as pictured.  Bidder also gets extra FREE rear Wildwood Disc breaks!!!

 

$500.00 non refundable deposit due immediatley at auction close via PayPal.  Buyer responsible for shipping.  This car is restoration project and is running but not driveable yet.  This Mustang is being relisted due to buyer selecting "buy it now" price then not purchasing so their is no buy it now price but will accept offers through PayPal.

Ford Edge Concept previews new look, can park itself remotely

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

It turns out the image we saw back in February did, in fact, reveal the next-generation Ford Edge - at least in concept form. We still have to wait to see what the design will look like in production guise, but until then, Ford is giving us a good idea thanks to the Edge Concept being introduced at the LA Auto Show.
The new styling is an evolution of the current crossover's face with narrow headlights and a prominently slatted grille, while the rest of the design adds a more dynamic appearance with interesting body creases and horizontal taillights. We haven't gotten a look inside the Edge Concept just yet, but Ford is promising a suite of advanced driver-assist technologies including a new self-park system that allows activation from inside or outside the vehicle along with obstacle avoidance and an adaptive electric power steering system.
Ford will continue to offer an EcoBoost engine option in the upcoming Edge, and it will get active grille shutters to help maximize fuel efficiency. No word yet on when we'll be seeing the next-gen Edge in production form, but as we reported recently, it will become a global model in markets including Europe, China and South America. Ford's press release is posted below, but we'll have more information and images up later today.

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.

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index

Mon, Oct 10 2016

While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.
