Up for sale is my 2005 Mustang GT premium convertible. I've owned here since 2009. Dyno tuned by AED in Cameron Park. Their shop was recently featured in an article in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. Dynoed her when I had first gotten the Procharger with the Diablosport tune that came with the kit. At the time she was only seeing 5lbs of boost because of the exhaust, intake, and headers. Put down 398hp at 5PSI. Decided to get an SCT tuner, to be able to tune better. Also got a smaller pulley to get to 10PSI, and laid down 478rhwp. But the injectors were maxed out, and the discussion of E85 was brought up. I ordered a set of 80lb Ford Racing injectors, and a stainless steel fuel filter. First pull on gas, 491rwhp. Then switched over to E85. Tuned her to 523.2rwhp and 513.9ftlbs at only 22 degrees of timing! Then the fuel pump maxed out. Luckily a friend of mine had a GT500 setup, so I bought that from him. Haven't had the time to install it yet. Shaun that tuned her, said that "with another 5-6 degrees, you'd see maybe 40-60 more horses". Knowing the limitations of the stock blocks, I decided to run her on the gas tune, and not push my luck and end up blowing her to pieces. The SCT tuner comes preloaded with the E85 tune, and gas tune. Also, another tune, that'll help you run the fule pum, in case you want to empty the tank to switch to E85. Just disconnect the feed at the rail, and turn the key. If I were to keep it, the next step would be a forged rotating assembly, and more BOOOST!!!! She drives just like a stock GT, until you plant the right foot to the floor! Even with the stiff SPEC clutch, my wife has no problem driving it.

In the time that I've had her, I have spent a small fortune on upgrades and modifications. Started with suspension and brake upgrades late 2011. Then it went downhill from there! Supercharger, clutch, GT500 conversion, etc. She has Bilstein shocks and struts. Ford Racing 1" lowering springs, and swaybars. Adjustable in the front. DBA gold rotors, and Hawk pads - stops on a dime! Spec stage 3+ clutch. Procharger 1FP214-SCI HO kit. C&L intake. GT500 throttle body. Edelbrock headers. Granatelli 3" stainless steel exhaust. Dual oil separators - 1 on each side. Remote dual oil filter setup, and oil cooler.  (Increased the capacity by 3qts) Plus a TON of other bits and pieces! 

I had an in dash DVD/GPS unit in her. But the unit started acting up, so I installed the stock Shaker 1000 system. I had also gotten upgraded door speakers, Rockford Fosgate 6x8, and Pyramid subs. Since there was an aftermarket headunit in there, she is wired front to back. Battery in the trunk, and 4 channels (2 sets of RCA) run. Also remote power signal, signal for backup camera, camera mounted in the bumper, and video cable for it. Lastly, 2 sets of speaker wires, to hook up for the front speakers, if an amp is trunk mounted. Right now it's running off the stock Shaker amps. Sounds awesome! When I put the stock unit back in, I bought an aftermarket harness to enable me to plug in my ipod/iphone. When I did, the radio resets the time every time I start the car. Comes back to 12:00. Not sure if that's the adapter, or the radio. Everything works fine on it, just strange that it resets.

Last fall I sold off all the stock front pieces, and did a GT500 conversion. Found a used Trufiber knockoff hood locally. Then sourced the rest online. With that install, I got custom stripes cut. Running down the sides along the doors - custom cutout that reads SUPERCHARGED, then CORNFED GT. Up the fender, (Ford Racing logo) curves on the hood, Procharger logo, etc. and down the center. I got enough material cut, that the next owner can continue the stripes down on the bumper, and also for the trunk if he/she chooses. Also painted the inside of the hood, coated with flat clear.

She is coming up on 61K. She had 30K when I bought her. She's been to Boston, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas twice, and Seattle. She shows normal wear for her age. 2 dings that I can think of. 1 on the passenger fender, by the stripe. About an inch long. A bicycle fell over in the garage, and the handlebar knicked the GT. The other on the drivers side rear fender, about a dime size. Tried to take a picture of it, but couldn't get my camera to focus right. Paint is fine there. I try to stay on top of rock chips with a touch up brush.

Comes with the stock intake manifold and stock throttle body. Also available the stock rear taillights. When I had the exhaust installed, also made catless downpipes with V-bands. 5 minute swap!

On Jul-29-13 at 02:02:26 PDT, seller added the following information:

Forgot a couple of things. When I had the clutch installed, I also got a new master cylinder, slave cylinder, and an upgraded stainless steel braided line. This helps with reducing flex in the line, common in the OEM plastic line under high line pressure. Also, the Procharger was installed at at 56K miles. Haven't even had a chance to do the 6000 mile oil change in the headunit. So it's practically brand new! I still have the remaining bottles of oil that came with the kit from Procharger that'll come with the car. Also, I have installed red LED lights for the driver and passenger footwells. Can be turned on with a switch in the console. Discretely lights up the floor. Handy at night if you drop something. Or out cruising, gives it a certain ambiance!

Marchionne open to combination with Ford or GM

Fri, Mar 13 2015

At the depths of the auto industry implosion, there was widely reported talk that General Motors and Chrysler would be merged into a mighty import-beating behemoth. While such notions clearly never materialized, that doesn't mean the idea is dead. In fact, FCA boss Sergio Marchionne still welcomes the idea of a partnership with either GM or Ford. He responded positively to the idea, calling it "technically feasible," when asked about it at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, Automotive News reports. "There's bantering that goes on all the time," Marchionne told AN, before quashing suspicions that a plan was in the works by adding that "nothing substantive" was going on. Our favorite black sweater enthusiast isn't quite as interested in the idea of teaming with a foreign manufacturer like PSA Peugeot Citroen, or in the rumored tie-up with Volkswagen, though. That is a shame, particularly in regards to Marchionne's shut down of a partnership with the French, although it isn't necessarily surprising – FCA already consists of eight automakers, and as Sergio told AN, there's really nothing at PSA that could help the company out. What are your thoughts? Is there an obvious project or segment that would benefit from an FCA partnership with Ford or GM? Have your say in Comments.

Texas plumber shocked his old Ford F-250 is now in terrorists' hands [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Do you ever wonder what the a owner is doing with your vehicle after you trade it in? Mark Oberholtzer of Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City, TX, has no need to imagine, but it's probably his worst nightmare. That's because an image of his old Ford F-250 is now on Twitter as a gun platform in the Syrian Civil War. While the image only appeared recently, Oberholtzer traded the truck in last November. Somehow since then the F-250 made its way from Texas to Syria. According to a report from television station WHOU, the dealer that took the trade said the pickup immediately went to auction. Unfortunately, along the whole route no one ever took Mark-1 Plumbing's name and phone number off the door. So when the image went up on Twitter, everyone knew whom the Ford previously belonged to. The plumbing company makes it abundantly clear that this whole bizarre situation is simply a coincidence, and it has absolutely no ties to the conflict in Syria. However, that isn't preventing people from phoning the business with angry calls and threats. Things are so bad that Oberholtzer keeps the phones unplugged for relief. Scroll down to watch a video of the guy's flabbergasted reaction to finding out what his F-250 is doing now. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford files trademark application for 'Model E'

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

In early December, Ford filed an application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Model E." Historically, Ford never produced a Model E, and while automakers are known to file for trademarks they never use, some have wondered if the application might be used for a concept car.
Based on other recent events, though, it could be a legal move. In 2000 Ford sued an online start-up called Model E over the similarity of that name to Ford's industry-shaping Model T, but the judge dismissed the case citing lack of proper grounds. In August 2013, Tesla applied for trademark registration for Model E, and at the time, Ford said it would review the application. Tesla actually made two applications for Model E, one for automobiles and structural parts therefore, the other for "providing maintenance and repair services for automobiles," and there are plenty of theories about what the name could be applied to.
The Published for Opposition date for Tesla's applications is December 31, 2013, after which anyone who thinks they'd be harmed by Tesla being granted the trademark gets 30 days to register their issues. This is just speculation, but Ford's application - which was filed for automobiles only - might be about protecting what it sees as unwelcome encroachment on the name Model T, protection it wasn't able to enforce before when the stakes were only online and much smaller.
