2006 Ford Mustang GT V8. We brought this car from a local Ford Dealer nearly a year ago as a project car and we are the second owners.
The project was simple and to create a Knight Rider replica. First job was to up grade the hood, bumpers, lights, grille, spoiler and Super Snake badges to match the KR series and of course get the whole car professionally resprayed. We used genuine Ford parts which with the respray cost just over $7500. I also went and brought the scanner, which was a show prop and the most important part of the replica.....this was $3600. The scanner is all wired but i haven't mounted it onto the hood just yet. I also managed to purchase the voice orb which is installed but need a car pc to run the software. This came from a true legend and enthusiast who produced the best Orb and other parts for the KR replicas. Look up Joshua on KRonline. I have also had fitted the GT500KR rocker panel stripes
I managed to get my hands on a brand new set of Shelby GT500 Super Snake Fifty Years 50th Anniversary 20" Alcoa Wheels. These are selling for around $5k on Ebay right now and will not get any cheaper as they do not make them anymore. I will sell these for an additional $3k on asking price. This car is about 85% complete and just needs the scanner mounting, car pc to run the voice orb software, and stripe kit although i prefer it without. I really don't have time to finish right now. Serious enquirers only please. May consider a trade with a SUV. Please contact me for further info.
I will be adding more photos or i can email them to you.
All the hard work has been done with no expense spared. Just needs finishing.
Please only bid if you intend on buying
Overseas bidders or bidders with a score of less than 10, please contact me before bidding
Thank you for looking

Ford adds 850 jobs to build 2015 F-150
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Pickup trucks tend not to advance at quite the same pace as the rest of the industry. That's what makes the new Ford F-150 so remarkable, jettisoning its old steel construction in favor of aluminum. It's a game changer that Ford is betting big on, and in anticipation of surging demand, the Blue Oval automaker is adding 850 new jobs to put the thing together.
Those 850 new employees will be centered at Ford's Rouge complex in Michigan - with 300 at Dearborn Stamping, 50 more at Dearborn Diversified and 500 at the Dearborn Truck facility, the latter of which has already kicked off what Ford describes as "the largest manufacturing transformation in decades." Old manufacturing equipment is being replaced with the latest technologies, and even the Ford Rouge Factory Tour is undergoing a complete overhaul.
The new jobs come as part of the commitments Ford made to the UAW in 2011 to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the United States by 2015 - a number which Ford has already exceeded at 14,000. Over 4,000 of those are centered in southeastern Michigan.
Ford recalls select Explorer, E-Series vans
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Just a few days ago we brought you news that Ford had issued a recall on 28,000 units of the Edge crossover for problems related to the fuel line. But now the Blue Oval has issued recall notices on two more of its larger vehicles.
The first relates to the Explorer, 395 examples of which from the 2011 and 2012 model years were found to have problems with their steering systems if they underwent service after September 1, 2013. An apparent software glitch could lock the steering gear, preventing the driver from steering the vehicle and thereby increasing the risk of a crash. As a result, Ford dealers are being instructed to check their records to identify the problematic vehicles and bring them in to have the steering gear replaced. Details of the recall can be found in the PDF linked here.
The second problem revolves around E-Series vans that may develop bubbles in their windshields under hot temperatures. The decrease in visibility through the problematic windshield could - you guessed it - "increase the risk of a crash." As a result, Ford is calling in 4,532 units of the E-150, E-250, E-350 and E-450 vans built in the relatively short window between May 12 and May 26, 2011. Details of this recall can be found in the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon
Fri, 27 Dec 2013What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.
