Please message me with questions at: eldridge.dusatko@openmail.cc . This is your opportunity to own a much desired “Fox Body” Ford Mustang coupe / notchback. This is a rotisserie
restored 1989 Mustang LX coupe built as a “Pro Touring” car and has been featured in issue 5 of Fox Mustang
Magazine. This Mustang had less than 23,000 miles on it when the restoration began, so it started out as a near
perfect body with no rust. Only 300 break-in miles have been logged on this Mustang since the completion of the
restoration.
The paint is a dark metallic gray over a lighter silver, separated by a thin orange stripe. The mirror shine paint
job is flawless, and above the quality that you see on most cars at high end car shows. The metallic in the dark
gray really stands out in the sun and under bright lights.
The engine is a stout 347 stroker engine rated at 519HP with worked Trick Flow heads; Vortech S-Trim Supercharger
with 48-pound Trick Flow injectors fed by an Aeromotive fuel system; MSD ignition; Crane cam and a long list of
other goodies. The transmission is a Tremec T600.
The exhausts starts with a pair of short tube Doug’s headers, a 2.5 inch stainless X-pipe and Flowmaster 40
Series mufflers that gives it an aggressive but subdued exhaust note at idle hinting at the high performance
experience that goes with this vehicle. Suspension is adjustable coil-overs on all 4 corners.
Wheels are FR500 10-spokes with Nitto 235/45ZR17 tires up front and NT555 P275/40R17 Extreme Drag Radial rubber in
the rear. Once rolling the AeroSpace disc brakes on all 4 corners slow things down with the help of drilled and
slotted rotors.
The interior is all brand new as well; it has custom two tone leather seats to mimic the exterior colors of the
car. Water Temp, Boost Press and Air Fuel gauges are tastefully mounted to driver’s side windshield pillar. It
also has a custom fit role bar / cage painted the same dark metallic gray as the top of the outside of the car. A
high end stereo system made up of a Pioneer AM/FM/CD player and a Bazooka sub-woofer complete the total interior
package.
Driving this car is incredible. It is a contradiction of sensations with the mix of raw power that’s available
instantly at any RPM and in any gear, combined with the predictability of the suspension, the right tires,
lightweight wheels and spot-on aftermarket brakes.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.

Ken Block hoons his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax on the slopes

Wed, 08 Oct 2014

Ken Block drives Fords. Hoons the heck out of 'em, actually. Mostly Fiestas, but also the occasional Focus or Mustang. But earlier this year, the Gymkhana guru revealed his baddest Ford yet: an F-150 SVT Raptor on tracks. And true to form, here he is putting it to the test in the latest video from Monster Energy and Hoonigan Racing.
Filmed at Baldface Lodge in Nelson, BC, the video pairs Block up with snowboarders Zak Hale and Ethan Deiss for some deep-powder action. You'll want to watch the video for yourself, but the bottom line is that the RaptorTrax beats the heck out of waiting on line for the ski lift. It's enough to make us start to look forward to winter... almost.
