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.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year

Tue, Dec 16 2014

There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.

Shelby GT350R offers first mass-produced carbon fiber wheels

Fri, Jul 10 2015

In the world of race engineering, reducing total weight is good, but reducing unsprung weight is flippin' fantastic. That's the reason Ford is pushing the envelope in terms of technology for the Shelby GT350R's wheels. Joining the likes of Koenigsegg in the offering, Ford has teamed with Australian outfit Carbon Revolution to produce the CF rollers en masse for the first time. Destined for the hubs of the new Shelby GT350R, the new hoops weigh just 18 pounds each, versus the 33-lbs weight of a similar aluminum wheel. On top of slashing up to 60 pounds in unsprung weight, there's such a reduction in rotational inertia – 40 percent, versus aluminum wheels – that Ford actually has to recalibrate the magnetic ride control system and springs. Thanks to, we're guessing, scenes of crashed Formula One cars disintegrating and spewing shards of carbon fiber all over the track, Ford seems quite keen to do away with the idea that CF is strong, but brittle. The company conducted extensive shock testing, ramming a wheel into a curb at speed. According to the Blue Oval, the lightweight wheel allowed the suspension to respond so quickly that the impact was "greatly diminished," causing the tester to run the experiment again, thinking there'd been a mistake. After recording brake rotor temperatures of 900 degrees Celsius (over 1,650 degrees Fahrenheit, or well past the point that aluminum or magnesium would melt) during testing, Ford and Carbon Revolution actually redesigned the wheels to "a thermal standard more suitable for motorsports," by adding an "incredibly thin, nearly diamond-hard coating that reliably shields the resin from heat." The same process was used to protect engine turbine blades on the Space Shuttle. While the work by Ford and Carbon Revolution should make GT350R customers excited, the work being done here could have serious implications for performance cars in the future. That's the real takeaway here, and is something that should leave fans of all performance vehicles excited.
