1976 Ford Mustang II Cobra with a 302 V8 and Automatic Transmission

I am told the following was done before it was parked several years ago:

  • Engine block boiled with new freeze plugs & cam bearings.
  • Cam & New Lifters
  • Crankshaft Reconditioned
  • Overhaul Engine Kit - New pistons, rings, Connecting rods & Main bearings, Oil pump, Timing Chain, Gasket set.
  • New Radiator
  • Milidon Oil Pan
  • Rebuilt Carburetor
  • Rebuilt Automatic Transmission

I have never received any documentation to prove the work listed above and I have never started or driven the car.

Note: Included is the very rare Aluminum Rear Window Louvers and a brand new front spoiler (note: I was told the spoiler is for this model Mustang but cannot guaruntee it)

Please note that this car is being sold in non running condition and I am making no representations or warranties as to its condition.

VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS, and WITH ALL FAULTS"

I recommend and encourage any prospective buyers to thouroghly and personally inspect the car prior to placing any bids.

Unless you have made arrangements with me prior to bidding the car must be paid for in CASH upon in person pickup or if shipping must pay with cashiers check and allow 7 to 10 days for check to clear prior to pickup. ( absolutely NO PAYPAL, Personal CHECKS, MONEY ORDERS, etc.).

Vehicle must be picked up within 7 to 10 business days of auction end. After 10 days a storage fee of $25 per day will accrue and vehicle will not be released until storage fee is paid.

Note that paint appears better in pictures than it actually is - looks like it may have been partially repainted and sprayed with a clear coat - the clear is yellowed and chipping with numerous scratches and small dents - I would characterize rust as being minimal for this year car as they tended to be very rust prone. Interior is likewise rough with torn seats and missing carpet etc.

I added a picture of the Mustang II Cobra with Farrah Faucett on the hood for those of us who remember Charlie's Angels.

Several Mustang / Ford Brochures are also included ( see picture )

Please note that I poured a little gas into the carburetor and connected a battery and it did start and run momentarily and sounded pretty good.. Because it has been sitting for so many years I suspect the gas in the tank is bad - plus it smells aweful.

 

I tried the brakes and they seem to be working with decent pedal.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.

Ford auctioning off F-35-themed 2015 Mustang for charity

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Ford's been a supporter of EAA AirVenture, a huge, annual air show held in Oshkosh, WI, for several years now, with one of its most notable contributions being a modified Ford Mustang, designed to look like one of America's great fighting aircraft. There was an SR-71 Mustang, based on the legendary spy plane, a Red Tails edition, which honored the ground-breaking Tuskegee Airmen of World War II, as well as Blue Angels and Thunderbird Mustangs, based on America's two great military aerial demonstration teams.
Each car is auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the EAA Young Eagles program, which introduces kids to the joy of flight. For the 2014 AirVenture, which runs from July 28 to August 3, the one-off pony car is based on the new-for-2015 Mustang, and America's latest fighting aircraft - the controversial F-35 Lightning II.
The unique Mustang sports titanium paint scheme, with both glossy and matte sections, as well as yellow-and-blue trim and decal elements inspired by CF-1, the first F-35 test plane. A carbon-fiber front splitter and rear diffuser add some visual eye candy, while the interior boasts a set of Recaro seats. Ford also opted to fit unique wheels and a brawnier rear spoiler, to tie everything together.

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
