1989 Ford Mustang Lx 5.0 Convertible Automatic New Top 25th Anniversary Red on 2040-cars
Leechburg, Pennsylvania, United States
1989 Mustang 5.0 LX Convertible Red with a black top and red interior. This is a 25th Anniversary model, it does have the original dash anniversary badge. The interior is original and most of the paint is as well. It looks like the red bellow the Black trim has been done at some time due to rock chips and the passenger side fender since it looks more like base coat clear there. The underside is exceptionally clean, there is no rust that I have come across in the last 8 years of owning it. I have done a lot of work on the car and been through about every square inch of the car. When it was bought, I gutted the inside cleaning as I went. The paint has been buffed out and cleaned up very well unfortunately an owner prior to me didn't know how to use the buffer and burned through the edges on the fender/hood areas and trunk quarter areas. It still looks great for original 25 year old paint with 103k miles. This car is not a perfect show car, but it is a great cruiser and will still do well at your local car show. I bought it with 102k on it and it now has 103k, needless to say I have spent more time building it up to the way it is than I have driving it 8 years and about 1,000 miles. I have probably spent close to $10,000 by the time I add up all of the receipts. My last thing that I wanted to do was upgrade the braking system while keeping it 4 lug since I have the set of Pony's on it that I redid when I bought it. Here is a list of most of what has been done to the car since I have owned it, there is the general maintainace items as well.
If you want to take a look at the car please feel free to get in touch with me. I do have it listed locally and have the right to end the auction early if it is sold prior to the end of the auction. This is a binding contract. Most of the mustang fox problems have been taken care of, it is ready to drive. My wife and I were talking about it today and we both agreed that it is a great car that we need to let go since we just don't have time to drive it. If you are interested bid to win it is a clean car, don't waste my time if you're here screwing around. |

After Years Of Delays, Rear Visibility Requirements Move Closer To Reality
Fri, Jan 3 2014Regulations that would require automakers to improve rear-view visibility on all new cars and light trucks are nearing completion after six years of delays. The U.S. Department of Transportation sent its proposed rear-visibility rules to the Obama administration for review on Christmas Day. The White House Office of Management and Budget now must finalize the regulations. The rule are intended to minimize the risk of pedestrian deaths from vehicles in reverse, a type of accident that disproportionately affects children. Already in 2014, two children have died from cars backing over them, driven in each case by the children's father. Specifics of the Transportation Department's proposal are not available during the review, but the rules are expected to compel automakers to install rear-view cameras as mandatory equipment on all new vehicles. That's what safety advocates have wanted all along. Thought they were pleased the proposed ruling had finally been issued, there was some worry Friday the final rules would omit the rear-view camera mandate. "We're encouraged, but we're also a little concerned about speculation the rear-view camera may not be in there," said Janette Fennell, the president and founder of Kids and Cars, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting children in and around vehicles. "I'm wondering where that might be coming from." On Thursday, The Automotive News had reported the possibility the new standards could offer an alternative to rear-view cameras, such as redesigned mirrors, that improved visibility. The Office of Management and Budget typically completes its reviews of new rules in 90 days, although that can be extended. OMB officials said Friday they do not comment on pending rules. The intent of the rules is to enhance rear visibility for drivers and prevent pedestrian deaths. Approximately 200 pedestrians are backed over in the United States each year, according to estimates from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Accidents Mostly Affect Children Roughly half the victims are children younger than age five. A government analysis concluded approximately half the victims -– 95 to 112 -– could be saved with new regulations. Yet the rules have arrived at a glacial pace. President George W. Bush signed legislation that had been passed with bipartisan Congressional support in 2008. But automakers have fought the idea of adding rear-view cameras, saying it is too expensive.
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 confirms Everest SUV production for China
Sat, 19 Apr 2014According to Ford, the Chinese SUV segment grew by 49 percent in 2013, and the Blue Oval held a 4.5 percent market share. At the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, Ford is showing the Everest SUV that, while just a concept for now, will go into production in the near future.
The Everest is a big, brawny seven-seat SUV that mixes solid, chiseled styling and contemporary Ford design cues. Up front there is an angular version of the trapezoidal grille and sharp, wraparound headlights. The beltline rises in the rear to make the back appear higher than the front. The rear seems just as chiseled, with the taillights resting in jagged scallops. There is no doubt that this concept means to look rugged, and ready for rough roads - the whole thing looks pretty great.
The truck was penned by Ford's Asia Pacific design and engineering team in Australia, and it was first shown in Sydney last year. Ford's JMC joint venture will build the truck for the Chinese market, and it will be sold at Ford dealers there. The Blue Oval isn't hinting at what powers the production version yet, but it reportedly shares some components with the foreign-market Ranger.
