Well folks let me begin by saying that it was always a dream of mine to restore a 60's Ford Mustang. I began to piece together my plan at the begining of the year when I found this original California 1966 Mustang in Pennsylvania. Unfortunately my family comes first and an unforeseen medical emergency puts my plans on hold for now. I am listing this coupe for sale and prepared to take a loss to sell it fast!!! Car had been stripped of its original 289 engine and 3 speed manual transmission but the body is in excellent condition. NO RUST ANYWHERE!!!! The engine bay, interior floors and under carriage have already been re-sprayed. This is a great project to finish, just pick your engine, interior color and exterior paint. I have already done the following since April 2013:
New complete suspension ($500)
New front disc brakes ($500)
New rear drum brakes ($200)
New rear leaf springs and shocks ($250)
New Shelby Hood ($800)
New front valance ($150)
New rear GT valance ($150 not yet installed)
New GT trumpet exhaust tips ($125 not yet installed)
New steeering wheel ($150 Turqouise, not yet installed)
New gas tank and kit ($150 not yet installed)
New emblems ( $50 not yet installed)
I also have all the original trim, seat frames (re-welded & painted), dash parts, wiring harness, windows, glass and additional parts ready to go with the car. I was setting up this car to be automatic so I also have a C4 automatic transmission ($400) from another 66 Mustang that will go with the sale.
Email me with questions and concerns or for additional pictures. Good luck!
Buyer responsible for pick up but buyer will assist with reputible transport company contact used in the past.
Car is also listed for sale locally so I reserve the right to pull the car from auction at any time.

Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
Ford bondage ads reportedly trigger firings at Indian ad agency
Wed, 27 Mar 2013You will probably remember the ads for the Ford Figo hatchback in India, the ones that showcased the extra large boot of the little hatchback by joking that you can fit three of your enemies in the trunk. One of the ads had Michael Schumacher in the front seat, obviously pleased about having Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso tied up in the back. But the other two had Paris Hilton and ex-Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi up front and three bound and gagged women in the back - in Hilton's case (shown above), it was the Kardashians.
This did not go over well, and Reuters reports that certain employees at JWT India have been fired over the matter. It is also reported that the images weren't actual advertisements, nor were they part of an actual campaign; JWT said they "were never intended for paid publication, were never requested by our Ford client." A JWT rep said the employees who created the ads did so on their own, Ford commented to Automotive News that the ads were "part of a creative exercise intended to test concepts for an advertising competition."
The problem, if the story is to be believed, is that the employees skipped the regular review protocols and uploaded their work to an ad industry site - they were found on Ads of the World. That page, like the employees, has been removed.
Ford adds third shift at F-150 plant to keep up with demand
Tue, 06 Aug 2013The signs have been very positive for Ford's F-Series line of pickup trucks as of late, and after 24 consecutive months of increasing sales of the best-selling F-150, the automaker has added a third production crew at its Kansas City Assembly Plant that includes 900 new hourly workers to meet demand for the truck. This the first step in Ford's plan to add 2,000 hourly jobs at the plant to help meet demand for its trucks and to begin production of the new Transit van, the automaker says.
Despite some tough new competition, sales of the F-Series are the strongest they've been since 2006, according to Ford. The automaker sold 60,449 F-Series in July, the best sales figure for the mid-summer month since 2006, which also represents a 23 percent increase compared to July 2012. From January to July 2013, sales were up 22 percent compared to the same period last year.
Ford has committed to creating 12,000 hourly jobs by 2015, and with the 900 new employees added to the assembly plant in Missouri, the company says it has completed 75 percent of its goal. Ford has also invested $1.1 billion to retool and expand the Kansas City Assembly Plant to ready it for Transit production. Take a look at the press release below for more job and F-Series sales information.
