1966 Ford Mustang Automatic 302~needs Restoration~runs Strong! ***see Details*** on 2040-cars
Maryville, Tennessee, United States
This is a nice car that has already had some restoration. I got it thinking I would finish it one day, but never had the time. Now I just need money, so this would be a great project for somebody who has the time and money to invest in it.
In the pictures this car looks fantastic but some of the pictures fail to show the minor damage on the body. Most of the panels have been replaced previously except the door skins. They are bubbling up with rust. I have one new replacement door skin that just needs to be put on and painted. I also had the paint matched so that the whole car wouldn't need to be repainted. (Paint included). There are a few other areas that have some damage and need repair. The driver door needed a spring so that it wouldn't open out so far. We replaced the door spring but it did cause a spot where the door opened too far and hit the door (which will be repaired when you replace the door skin). Also there's several scratches on the rear panel where someone rubbed along a fence. There are several other nicks in the paint that need to be retouched. The interior has also been replaced previously. Still looks great the carpet is fading though. The car is kept under a carport because it leaks water in around the windshield or cowl, not sure where it's coming in at. The floorboards are solid as I said before they were replaced previously also. This is an automatic 302. I believe originally it was a 6-cylinder. This was a basic car with no options originally. When it was restored it had top-of-the-line engine parts put in! The engine looks great and runs strong. I noticed the engine has a little vibration when running not sure why. It runs good though. We drove it for an entire weekend at a car show 45 minute drive to and from, and it didn't give us any trouble at all! It might need a carburetor. Sometimes it's slow to start. But once it's warmed up it's fine. It needs shocks and/or struts because if anyone sits in the backseat if you go over a bump it rubs the tires. This car has nice aluminum Torque Thrust wheels! The tires still have plenty of tread. This car doesn't have an air conditioner. But the heat works. The radio doesn't work. I don't think the mileage is correct. Needs a turn signal handle. Some of the gauges don't don't work. This car doesn't have seat belts, it never had them. I can't think of anything else to say right now, but please ask any questions you may have. I described this car to the best of my knowledge. Due to the age of this car it is being sold as-is. Please see full description and all photos before purchasing. I am not liable for any repairs. Any repairs that need to be done will be the buyers responsibility. If I failed to list something that is found wrong after purchase, I cannot be held liable. Please understand that this is an old vehicle and although it was fully restored some time ago (not sure exactly when) it needs some work. I can send more photos on request through email. Will deliver car up to 200 miles. |

Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
2015 Ford Mustang dealer order guide surfaces
Tue, 13 May 2014Details about the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang continue to leak out. In fact, at this point, it's more of a stream than a drip. Its option prices are already available, and now the full ordering guide is on the web for all of the trims thanks to the Mustang 6G forum. Ford is rapidly running out of secrets to keep about its new sports coupe.
The 21-page guide can be perused in the gallery below and contains all of the standard features, colors, options codes, descriptions. Generally everything you might want to know about the 'Stang is there, other than its price or power. It even shows off the available wheel designs.
The guide finally gives away the contents of the Performance Package for the EcoBoost and GT trims. The EcoBoost's package includes: A larger rear sway bar, new chassis tuning, larger brake rotors, 19-inch black wheels, retuned driver assistance systems, an aluminum dash panel, added gauge pack, 3.55 limited slip rear differential, larger radiator, heavy-duty front springs and spoiler delete. When the options pricing leaked, it indicated the package would cost $1,995. If that is the case, it seems like quite a deal.
10 automakers shack up in Detroit hotel to talk Takata airbags
Sun, Dec 14 2014Since Takata has decided not to take the lead concerning potential issues with its airbag inflators, the automakers have. Perhaps that's unsurprising, since it's the automakers, not Takata, that will take a beating on the dealership floor if consumers decide its models are a health hazards. The Detroit News reports that Toyota, Honda, General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru met in a hotel conference room near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport last week to sort out a way to understand the technical issues involved. So far, faulty airbag inflators have been ruled the cause of five deaths and 50 injuries around the world, but neither Takata nor investigators understands exactly why the inflators are malfunctioning. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently asked Takata to issue a national recall, Takata declined, citing a minuscule failure rate and the fact that it's still investigating the issue. Toyota and Honda then made an industry-wide appeal for "a coordinated, comprehensive testing program" that would pinpoint the problem inflators and get them replaced, and that's what the Detroit meeting was about. Numerous issues, however, will make this a long row to hoe: simply getting the parts to replace the nearly 20 million inflators in cars recalled around the world so far - even working with other suppliers - will take a years, but more importantly, no one knows if the replacement inflators currently being installed will suffer the same issue. Answers will hopefully come quickly with Takata, the ten automakers and NHTSA all independently investigating the problem.
