Year:1990 Mileage:60000
Location:

 Turn Key ‘90 Mustang LX stock suspension car. Very clean and straight Black on black.
Certified 8.50 chassis with all tubular up front. 8.8 fully built rear. 2-speed powerglide with brake. Leaves extreamly hard and straight. Perfect for 10.5, X-275 or grudge racing.

Too many features to list all but here is a partial list of the no expense spared build.
Professionally built and tuned and very competitive in the West Texas True Ten Five (WWTTF) series.
427 Dart Windsor block. All the best internals.
T.E.A. TFS-R Heads flow 370+

MSD 7530T Ignition

Really there are just too many things to list on this amazing build.
One really cool aspect of the car is that it is actually streetable! If you want to cruise your local hang out you could do it and watch jaws drop! It even retains the factory power windows!

The car has two stages of nitrous. Programable nitrous set up with technical support from Edelbrock and Steve Johnson.

Car has gone Mid 5s at 125 in the 1/8 mile on one stage. Second stage is in place but never fired. Motor was recently freshened and Nitrous not fired since then! I have made maybe a dozen NA passes (because that was fast enough for me).

According to the Wallace Racing drag strip calculator (based on weight & ET) the car makes 1,147 rear wheel hp.

I have lots of documentation and most of the recipts from the build.

I bought this car with the intention of running it a lot but other interests (road racing) have kept me from reaching this cars full potential. And it’s just plain faster than I want to go at my age. It needs to go to someone who will appreciate it and run it regularly like it was meant to be run. If you are a serious potential buyer please call me with any questions you may have. Reserve is set at only a fraction of what this car cost to build!

I'm happy to answer any question you may have.

Bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta hams it up for International Bacon Day

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

This is a bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta. It is a real thing, that a real, multi-billion-dollar company designed. And it isn't even April Fools' Day. Designed for International Bacon Day, which is also apparently a thing, the 2014 Fiesta is finished in Green Envy paint - we're told black paint, like the color of a skillet, made the car look camouflaged - and features 10 gigantic decals depicting strips of tender, cured bacon.
The design, which was approved by the CEO of Benton's Country Hams, Allan Benton, show off the depth of Ford's Custom Graphics program. Unbelievably, Ford will actually start offering bacon decals to everyday customers, including (and we can't believe we're writing this) dual bacon racing stripes which will no doubt have Carroll Shelby spinning and/or salivating in his grave, and a "side of bacon," which wraps a couple of strips over the rear wheels.
Benton, who Ford claims is the King of Bacon, had this to say: "This car just makes so much sense." The Fiesta's marketing manager, Liz Elser added, "It's just awesome to drive down the road in a piece of bacon."

Ford dealer loses Super Bowl bet, pays $300K to lucky customers [w/video]

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

A Missouri Ford dealership's Super Bowl weekend sale cost it big when the improbable happened. Hutcheson Ford ran a promotion from January 29 to February 1, called the Super Weekend Sale. The gist was, if any customer purchased a vehicle between those dates and either the opening or second-half kickoff of the big game was returned for a touchdown, the dealership would refund the purchase price.
In the dealership's defense, it seemed like a safe bet. According to the mathematicians, there was just a 2.5-percent chance of either half opening with a touchdown return. But that didn't stop Seattle's Percy Harvin from doing his part to ruin Denver's evening, returning the second-half kick for an 87-yard touchdown run. Twelve Hutcheson customers were eligible for refunds thanks to the return, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $55,000, according to Automotive News. The total amount shelled out by the dealership? $300,000.
"At least we're not like that furniture guy that lost $7 million," dealership marketing manager Kathleen Frazier told AN. We think it was a big success." The dealership did take out insurance to cover its losses, meaning the $300K won't come entirely from its pockets.

US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
