Hello, Up for auction is my 1984 Ford Mustang 5.0 (302 cu in) Convertible. I bought this car in California last year and I drove it home to New York, so this is a rust free hardly touched car. It does have some dings and nicks (2 on the hood, 1 on the front fender & 1 on the drivers door) but is straight and rust free. This car still has all the pollution equipment intact as it still passed the California emisssion inspection when I bought it. This car has a 5-speed manual transmission which shifts great, sometimes you have to feather it while going into 5th gear, but that has not been a issue for me. This car runs strong and straight and does not burn oil or leak any either as it has 96,467 original miles right now but will go up a bit as I am driving it still, the carb is the stock 4 barrel and I had it rebuilt when I got the car home last year. The interior is in good shape, I put in a new console door and someone reupolstered the seats in a gray and black cloth, the carpet is original and if I kept the car I would replace it because of fading, the dash is cracked (they all crack) and is covered by a black carpet dash cover, ok for now but again, if I was keeping it I would buy a plastic dash pad cover (on ebay for $129), the door panels are original, all the gauges work, as well as the A/C, which had a rebuilt compresser and new accumulator installed 2 years ago. It does have a new AM/FM CD palyer with two ways to play an iPod, and it also has a remote, and comes with the manual, speakers are original. All the power windows go up and down, although slow, the passenger rear window only goes down with the switch in the back seat, so I usually leave it up. The power steering works fine too. The car also has an alarm and power door locks with a remote entry and exit, passenger side does not always open with the remote. The convertible roof goes up and down with out issue and comes with the boot cover as seen in the pictures, the rear window is glass and is fine, there is a little seam separation of about an inch and a half which I show in a picture, I put a small patch on it, but I took it off for the picture, no water has got in as I cover the car when I know its going to rain and I do not drive it in the rain, but I could without incident as the wipers work fine and no water has gotten in when I wash the car. The tires are 17 inch Kumho's all around, the 2 fronts have 85% tread, but are older tires, the 2 rear tires I just bought from Tire Rack online and only have 400 or so miles on them. The wheels are chrome and look good, but there is some bubbling of the chrome between some of the spokes, but unless your bending down and looking, it is not noticeable. The car is single exhaust with a cat that is in great shape and does sound nice. The power brakes work fine and have plenty of life left, discs in the front and drums in the back. The radiator is a 2 year old aluminum 3 core. The paint is bright and not faded, it is a re-paint from probably 4 or 5 years ago, like I mentioned before, there is 5 or so nicks in the paint and there is some chips on the passenger rear quarter panel behind the door, but no rust anywhere, even underneath on the frame. Please be advised that the paint does have other paint flaws that are normal wear, I just pointed out the bigger ones either by pictures or previous descriptions. There is a spot on the rear bumper where it looks like someone backed into the car at low speed (see picture). I also put on a black leather hood bra which looks good to me, but it is easily removed, plus it covers up a paint chip. The lower passenger front valance has some chipping and stress lines, not from a car accident, but when I had the car inspected last year the car was sitting waiting for me to pick it up and a small sink hole, yes a sink hole, opened up under the front tire and the car dropped down and hit the ground, all in slow motion as I was there and it happened in front of me. The repair shop promised to pay to fix it, but he has reneged. I will be including the original manual as well as an after market repair manual. This car is very nice driver and presents well and I do get the thumbs up while driving it around, but it is not a show car, even thought I have put it in shows, I know it will be just looked at as a nice clean straight 1984 5.0 convertible driver. I have tried to explain everything to the best of my knowledge. Please ask questions. The car is sold as is, where is. US buyers only, please. The buyer is responsible for pick up and arragements for pick up. There will be a non-refundable deposit of $300.00 within 24 hours after auctions end and the balance can be in cash or bank check/money order and the title will not be released until funds clear. Thanks for looking, and Happy bidding.

NHTSA closes investigations into Ford Taurus, Hyundai Santa Fe
Wed, 03 Jul 2013Ford and Hyundai are out from under the scrutinizing eyes of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration after the government agency said it was closing investigations against both automakers over vehicle safety concerns.
Ford was being investigated for reported damaged speed control cables on Ford Taurus (shown above) and Mercury Sable models, both built between 2000 and 2003. Vehicles with the company's Duratec engines allegedly failed to allow owners to brake as expected. Owners lodged 100 complaints and were involved in five accidents, according to NHTSA records. The American automaker responded to the reports, and on June 21 of this year, said that it would inspect and repair all affected vehicles, regardless of the mileage.
Hyundai was under investigation for a reported loose fastener on the steering shaft of its 2011 Santa Fe (shown in the gallery below). After NHTSA launched its inquiry, the Korean automaker responded with its own investigation that yielded four affected vehicles. Following the inspection of 680 vehicles at its assembly plant, Hyundai said the issue was due to employee error and that no further defects have been found.
Ford patents a multi-touch version of its classic keypad
Fri, Sep 9 2016For decades, Ford has offered a keypad on the doors of their cars that would allow owners access with the right code. Amazingly, the keypad has survived almost unchanged except for a recent touch button version. A new patent from the Blue Oval shows the keypad may get a big upgrade soon. The first big change is that it looks like the keypad may move to the key fob. Although it might be possible to have it on the car itself as well, the patent only seems to focus on the key fob. In addition, the fob will now be a multi-touch pad similar to that of modern smartphones. This will allow for more diverse code entries, according to the patent's description. Instead of just a simple number code, owners could enter a code that involves swipes and keystrokes, and even simultaneous keystrokes. For instance, you could enter a code that requires swiping from 1 to 3, followed by holding 2 and 4 to unlock the car. The patent also seems to indicate that this keypad would then display unlock functions and other functions on the fob after the correct code is entered, thus making it more than just a way to unlock the car. As for the practical implications of this keypad system update, it could provide an added layer of security. If someone steals your keys, they would have to also know your access code to get into the car. Whether this would also help make the key and car harder to hack would remain to be seen, though. Another possible benefit could be the prevention of accidental lock and alarm button presses, although that likely isn't a common issue. There could be potential downsides as well. If used as an extra layer of security, the legitimate owner would have to punch in their code on the fob to get in, which would render proximity key benefits relatively useless. Moving the keypad to the fob would also mean owners couldn't get into their cars without having the key with them. We don't have any clues as to when this could become a feature, but it doesn't seem like it would be difficult to implement, so it could show up in the next few years.

Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron
Tue, Jan 3 2017Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.
