I bought this car in 2007 90% done. The only thing I have had to complete was the engine management portion. Since the car was completed it has only had roughly 10,000 miles put on it. I have had the car in several car shows locally and have won a best of show in a muscle car class. The car presents very well,  drives very well, and is quite quick. It is, however, not a Barrett- Jackson car or a race car. With that said here is the bad.

-Minor flaws in the paint mainly on the front and rear bumpers as it was painted in garage not a booth. The radio does not work. I have never looked into this as I didn't drive the car often enough to care about radio. The A.C. was never charged so it also doesn't work, compressor does. The driver seat has a small rip from 23 years of exiting and entering the car, The tires have a vibration above 70. I think they may be flat spotted from sitting. The fuel pressure gauge reads max pressure all the time even if the car is off and the gauge is removed.

This car you can tell by the description is wicked fast, they are out there better, faster, but not at this price. Email me for any questions, or more info at: mblyle@mchsi.com, Thanks Mike

  Looking at my pictures, they don't do the car justice. The paint looks like generic red, but it actually is the 93 Cobra red. It has a little bit of an orange tint. The car really pops in the sun. I stated earlier it was garage painted, that sounds bad, but it actually has a pretty presentable paint job. Bumpers do have some flaws. Don't expect best of show for paint, but you won't be embarrassed either. The car beat out some really nice cars for the trophy I won.

  The under hood shots also look a little dingy. My camera usually takes great pictures, but for some reason they look a little lame, don't know why, they just didn't transfer well. The under hood looks very nice, not perfect, but detailed well.

All said, Every time I drive it, I get a ton of looks. Not to mention it backs it up with the way it runs.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VI

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.

After Years Of Delays, Rear Visibility Requirements Move Closer To Reality

Fri, Jan 3 2014

Regulations 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.

Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.
