 I have never done a carfacts report on this vehichle, but this is what I was told from the previous owner. The car was originally purchased in GA. It was purchased as a mustang GT and the original owner through his own expense had the car sent to  SHELBY INTERNATIONAL  in SOUTHFIELD MICHIGAN  for the  GT 500 package. it spent about the first 7 years in GA and then purchased by an older gentleman in PA. He owned it for about a year and put less than 1000 miles on it and only sold it because it had a performance clutch that was to difficult for his wife to push down to shift. The car was bought for her. I bought it in 2009 with aproximatly 70000k miles. It has been meticulously maintained and kept in the garage under a car cover when not in use. It now has 135000k miles on it,Mainly highway miles because when I bought it, I lived in NJ and spent a year driving back and forth from NJ to SC looking to purchase a new home and retire. It has only seen the rain a handful of times and has never been raced or beat on. It is adult owned with a clear title. AS far as condition, the driver seat has a tear on the  ass part where the metal frame has come to the surface and wore a hole. I'm a big guy so that probably figures into it. Other wise the interior is very decent. I just had the sunvisors professionally redone with leather. the factory used a fabric that the sun quickly wore out. I also must say, the top is rarely up,whats the point of a convt.? The paint is decent with a couple very small nicks here and there. there are no dents and to my knowledge it has never been in an accident.The Experian report in this listing mentions an accident, I assure you I have no knowledge of that and if it happened ,it must have been very minor! It has a 4.6 liter with the cold air intake and I was told some other things have been done to the motor. When I bought the car I was given a Dyno print out of 325 HP to the rear wheels but lost it in the move. once you drive it, you will have no doubt that's true! It is going to need a new clutch soon but it's absolutely driveable. I would get in it and drive to California today ,that's how much confidence I have in this car. along with the back and forth from NJ to SC ,the car has gone to  TN -FLA- NIAGRA FALLS CANADA and a few other places  without ever having any kind of problems. All work snce  I have owned it has been done by a certified mustang guy who teaches automotives here at the SC technical school. Tires have plenty of life left and I just replaced the stereo because the CD player on the factory mach 6 system bit the dust. The top is in good shape also. if someone wants to see a pic with top up just ask. I just didn't want to take off the hard shell. It has the original boot and hard shell cover  and I'll throw in the car cover too. I can't think of anything else at this moment but if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Buyer will be required to deposit $500 in my pay pal account upon purchase and I would prefer the rest in cash or certified check, but the car stays here until check completely clears. I've heard stories of fake cahiers checks so please don't take it personally. It's not a must sell for me, I have another supercharged mustang that's my daily driver so keeping it is no big deal. I just don't drive it much anymore ,don't really want to put anymore miles than I have to on it.SO long story short, I'm a regular honest Christian guy who is  not trying to screw anyone. what I say in this ad is what I know. I welcome any  REASONABLE offers. I know there was not a factory GT 500 in 2002 so I really have no idea what this package adds to it's value. I know what I paid and I know what I'd like to get. That's about it!-- oh, buyer is responsible for arranging pick up and all that stuff. I sold a 74 duster a few months ago to a guy in FLa. and it cost him $300 to have it shipped from SC to his front door if that helps.

TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.
Warning: There is explicit, not-safe-for-work language in the video below.

Ford Focus PHEV on the way?

Tue, Jan 21 2014

A refreshed Ford Focus is in the works and that means a few details are leaking out. Spy shots from last month indicated the Focus will have a gaping grille just like its "One Ford" global C-segment comrade, the Fiesta. While Ford is being quiet about it, the Focus could also be getting an "Energi" option, joining the C-Max Energi and Fusion Energi in Ford's plug-in hybrid family. The Focus will likely use technology originated in the C-Max Energi that combines a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor capable of a 20-mile range, according to Autoexpress. The pure electric Focus is expected to stay in the lineup despite its slow sales; its price range should be similar to what's on the market now. The third-generation Focus looked good enough to become the top-selling nameplate in the world in 2012. Some exterior changes to look for in the Euro-spec model at the Geneva Motor Show in March include a reshaped hood, front wing endplate and rear bumper. Interior spy shots have hinted at an updated dashboard design and a simplified, less cluttered control panel with updated climate controls. Under the hood, there are quite a few power options rumored to be available - a gasoline EcoBoost with up to 123 horsepower and two turbo-diesel TDCI options, a 1.6-liter or 2.0-liter mills that would produce between 94 hp and 161 hp. Then there are new 1.5-liter diesel and 1.5-liter EcoBoost gasoline variants that meet regulations in China, Brazil and Russia.

Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.
