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.

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.

Ford, Volvo top 2014 EyesOn Design awards

Fri, 17 Jan 2014

Each year at the Detroit Auto Show, the top vehicle designs are recognized with the prestigious EyesOn Design award for production and concept vehicles. This year, the 32 EyesOn Design judges (comprised of current and former vehicle designers including Chrysler designer and SRT president Ralph Gilles, Kia designer Peter Schreyer and retired General Motors designer Wayne Cherry) handed out three awards for the Best Concept Vehicle, Best Production Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials.
Beating out the Mercedes C-Class and Ford F-150, the 2015 Ford Mustang was named the Best Production Vehicle as the top auto show debut at this year's Detroit show. The 2014 Volvo Concept XC Coupe took home awards as the Best Concept Vehicle and for its Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials.
Considering the Volvo's primer grey hue and subtle orange accents, it was a rather surprising winner for Innovative Use of Color, Graphics, and Materials over flashier concepts like the Toyota FT-1 and our Editors' Choice top pick, the Kia GT4 Stinger. Other vehicles in the running for the concept car award include the GT4 Stinger and Audi Allroad Shooting Brake

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Ford-sponsored survey says a third of Brits have snapped a 'selfie' while driving [w/videos]

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

Talking on the phone while driving isn't advisable, and texting while driving is downright dangerous. Considering those truths, the fact that we even need to point this out this is incredibly disturbing: taking "selfies" while behind the wheel is exceptionally stupid. But, it's a thing that a third of 18- to 24-year-old British drivers have copped to doing, according to a new study from Ford.
Ford, through its Driving Skills for Life program, surveyed 7,000 smartphone owners from across Europe, all aged between 18 and 24, and found that young British drivers were more likely to snap a selfie while behind the wheel than their counterparts in Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Spain and Belgium.
According to the study, the average selfie takes 14 seconds, which, while traveling at 60 miles per hour, is long enough to travel over the length of nearly four football fields (the Ford study uses soccer fields, but we translated it to football, because, you know, America). That's an extremely dangerous distance to not be focused on the road.
