Up for Sale is a 1989 Ford Mustang GT. 5.0L Automatic. A little over 89,000 miles. 25th Anniversary Edition. Always garage kept, mostly stock. Very good condition, fun and fast.

I did a lot of work on the car right after I got it. Roughly 9 years ago.

Aftermarket Konig Rims (4 lug) with Kumho Tires. Tires are in good shape, but not new. Original rims will come with the vehicle. 

Added long headers and a full Dynomax Cat-back Exhaust.

AOD Transmission was replaced with a brand new AOD transmission with Shift Kit and additional clutch plates.

Re-Painted the original color, the old paint was really dull.

Sony Explode CD player w/ 2 MTX 10" Subs.

Top goes up and down easily.

New water pump last year.

Again, this car is 25 years old now.

A few items I want to point out. The front seats are a little worn, but can be re-covered, they are easily available on-line.

The top will need to be replaced at some point. The stitching below the rear window is giving out (SEE PIC) and there is a small pucture hole in the top from parking lot vandalism. The last time I drove it in the rain, it did not leak.

There is also a small spot coming through above the rear wheel. The shop that painted the car was supposed to repair this when painting it, but did not. (SEE PIC)

The rear main seal has started to leak, probably from sitting and not being driven. Can be driven as is, just need to keep an eye on the oil level and top off once in a while. 

Again, this car is in very good condition overall. These are just minor items, but I wanted to point them out.

I have only driven this car like a 100 miles in the last 6 years. It needs to get driven, that's the only reason I want to sell it. Let someone else it enjoy it now.

I require a $500 non-refundable deposit. Full payment within 7 days by certified check or cash.

The car will not leave until paid in full and clear.

The buyer is reponsible for all shipping.

There is no warranty implied or expressed. Car is sold 'as is'.

Please contact me if you would like to come inspect the vehicle.

Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
