1986 Ford Mustang GT

Up for auction is my 1986 Ford Mustang GT. I have had this car for over ten years and have enjoyed every bit of it. I know the car's history and like to show you this to represent that this car hasn't changed many owners or tinkered on here and there by multiple people. I bought in July 2003 from my employer. He bought it for himself in North Carolina about five years prior. It was completely stock and unmolested besides an exhaust. During his ownership he had rebuilt the stock T-5 five speed and had the car completely repainted.

When I bought the car it was still factory as they get, minus the exhaust.

In late 2004 I installed the welded sub frame connectors, lowered the car with Ford Racing "C" springs, Steeda Tri-Ax shifter, and installed FRRP 3.73 gears.
2005 the car received 17" FRRP Cobra R Silver Wheels and the 87-93 rear quarter windows
2006 was the year for the engine upgrade. It was built with another block, so I could still drive it.

347 SCAT Stroker Forged Pistons @ 10.5:1 Compression
Comp Cams Xtreme Energy XE274 .555/.565" 112LSA
185 AFR CNC Aluminum w/ upgraded valve spring to accomodate the cam specs
Crane 1.6 Full Roller Rockers held solid with a CAT rocker stud girdle
Fully ported GT40 lower intake and Comp Cams Polyer Powerbox Upper
70mm Professional Products Throttle Body
76mm C & L Intake Elbow with MAF calibrated to 30lb/hr injectors

Shorty Headers

Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch (Awesome holding, even better pedal feel!)

Cowl Hood installed to clear the intake.

To help the new stroker breath better, over the winter of 2006-07, I installed 1-3/4" BBK Long Tube Headers and a BBK X-Pipe

Over the winter of 2007-08, the aluminum radiator and Taurus fan were installed, with auxiliary P/S cooler and the five lug conversion was completed using:

94-98 Mustang Axles and Rear Discs
2000 Front Spindles with Dual Piston PBR calipers.
KYB 4-Way Adj. Front Struts
FRRP Parking brake cables
AFS 17"x9" 03-04 Cobra rear wheels w/ 275/40R17 tires
AFS 17"x8" 03-04 Cobra front wheels w/ 245/45R17 tires

I won't lie and say the car was never raced. With modifications as such, what would be the point of not enjoying the power? It was raced VERY occasionally, not every weekend or even once a month. Including the time before the engine was built, it's been down the track in my possession only 4 times. I have all the times slips from when the engine was built. 12.5 @ 112 on street tires. The suspension is more geared toward handling so I'm sure with sticky tires and a drag suspension, it could very well be in the high 11s is desired. Also I never trailered the car. Always driven there AND back. Reliability.

The stock T-5 transmission was never made to handle much more than the factory power plant, as many may know, so in the spring of 2012, I installed a FRRP Super Duty T-5 transmission. While it was on the jack stands for the transmission install, an SLP Loudmouth cat back exhaust system was put on as well.

Just a month ago, I installed a new rack and pinion and had the car aligned.

This car you can truly get in and enjoy the ride. It goes down the road with no pulling or vibrations. It's not a show car by any means, but it is super clean. There's very minor flaws that come along with a car that's actually driven. The mileage will go up as I still drive it.

Here's a quick video of the car idling with a quick blip of the throttle.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me. For what has been invested, the reserve is very modest. You couldn't build a car like this at that price!

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.

Ford S-Max Concept proves minivans aren't always minivans [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

Ford's latest don't-call-it-a-minivan is called the S-Max Concept, and it's a looker. As you can see, the conceptual overgrown hatch makes good use of Ford's latest design language, especially at the very front of the S-Max, which bears a striking resemblance to production models that include the Focus, C-Max and Fusion.
Powering the S-Max Concept is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, and while Ford doesn't actually list power figures for the concept, previous estimates put the mill at 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet). Inside, there's room for seven passengers and at least some of their luggage.
As you'd expect, the S-Max is loaded up with all of Ford's latest infotainment technology, including Sync and MyFordTouch. More interestingly, there are also onboard heart and blood glucose monitors that we doubt will be seeing the light of production anytime soon. On that topic, don't expect to see any S-Max-shaped vehicles hitting the US market from Ford, either. Scroll down below for the press release, but not before checking out the high-res image gallery above.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.
