Feel free to email: bervig75@zoho.eu .
Capable of speeds approaching 200 MPH, turning only 2500 RPM at 100 MPH in 6th. gear! Very stable at high speeds and handles excellent! Has brand new Mickey Thompson SS Radials on the rear so the car can be controlled. No burn outs, these tires are so sticky it just goes as fast as you want! And this new SS model is also safe in the rain. It has a smaller supercharger pulley installed so that you can get maximum boost (20 psi), A brand new carbon fiber air intake and throttle body, K+N air filter, electronic tuner, new low suspension and aftermarket pipes. it sounds nasty even when you don't want it to sound nasty! With full boost in all gears it will snap your head back and be at 110 MPH by the time you hit 3rd gear. I made a trip out to Vegas and averaged about 110 MPH! Get the latest radar detector! Has all options shown above plus Navigation, Sirius XM radio, and voice commands. Plus the convertible top is powered and real hood support hinges have been installed so you don't have to use the support post. The attached dyno plots show before and after. At 1000 RPM the standard 650HP engine was putting out 595 HP and 580 lb/ft of torque to the rear wheels. After the mods and dyno tuning the power at the rear wheels is 682 HP and 698 lb/ft of torque! An increase of about 100 on each number! Given the 50 HP lost in the drive train that means it is churning out about 750 HP at the crank! Includes all stock parts, dyno plots, tuner, boot for the convertible top, new cover for storage, battery tender, factory touch up paint, and 2 trophies it won in a car show including best Mustang! Has always been garaged, stored and covered in winter, and left on a battery tender. Full synthetic oil always used - has 4500 miles until next oil change required. Has lifetime paint sealant, windshield sealant, fabric protector on seats and top, and lifetime rust proofing. I am the second owner. $70K invested!

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age
Thu, 17 Jul 2014In the 1950s and early 60s, the dawn of nuclear power was supposed to lead to a limitless consumer culture, a world of flying cars and autonomous kitchens all powered by clean energy. In Europe, it offered the then-limping continent a cheap, inexhaustible supply of power after years of rationing and infrastructure damage brought on by two World Wars.
The development of nuclear-powered submarines and ships during the 1940s and 50s led car designers to begin conceptualizing atomic vehicles. Fueled by a consistent reaction, these cars would theoretically produce no harmful byproducts and rarely need to refuel. Combining these vehicles with the new interstate system presented amazing potential for American mobility.
But the fantasy soon faded. There were just too many problems with the realities of nuclear power. For starters, the powerplant would be too small to attain a reaction unless the car contained weapons-grade atomic materials. Doing so would mean every fender-bender could result in a minor nuclear holocaust. Additionally, many of the designers assumed a lightweight shielding material or even forcefields would eventually be invented (they still haven't) to protect passengers from harmful radiation. Analyses of the atomic car concept at the time determined that a 50-ton lead barrier would be necessary to prevent exposure.
Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average
Tue, 11 Jun 2013We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).
