Up for bids is this 1966 ford mustang coupe. This is a great project for someone wanting to build a mustang and does not want to start with just a body or one that is not running. This is a running 66 coupe that basically needs a cosmetic restoration. The drivetrain in this car is pretty hot. It has a 289 with a c-4 green dot automatic transmission. The motor is not stock. It has a cam in it. It has a good sounding exhaust system. It has a aluminum intake. It has a remanufactured 650 edelbrock 4 barrel carburator. It has headers. From what I was told it has a positive trac rear end in it. I think it has gears in the rear end to but not sure what size. This car will get it. It has a special built brace across the shock towers and some bracing and traction bars under the leaf springs. This is one of those cars when you pull up to the red light you will turn heads either sitting still or taking off because it will go. This car sat up for about 10 years before I got it. I had to get another carburator, put some different tires on it because the old ones were dry rotted beyond use. I had to put another gas tank in it and clean the whole fuel system out. As far as mechanically The motor and transmission seem to be real good. The brakes work and it stops good but I am sure the brakes would need a little fine tunning. Mechanically this car would need little work. The tires are to big so it would need smaller tires on the front before it could be driven much. They are to wide and rub the fenders when you turn it. The glass is good in the car. As for the body this is where the major work will need to be done on the car. I am including a pair of doors, a front passenger side fender, and a hood in the auction that I took pics of that would be easy to do a little work to and just swap out the body panels or the ones on it could be fixed but it is just quicker and cheaper to unbolt parts and put other ones on. The main thing that will have to be cut out and welded in  is the floor pans. It will need floor pans. The frame sections are all good on it. The roof and trunk lid are good. The hood is good but when you let one sit up for a length of time the hood hinges will want to seize up and are hard to pull down unless you oil them so when someone pulled down on it they bent it a little on the drivers side. It could be fixed but I am including a extra hood anyway incase you just want to change it out. The doors are shot. The drivers door is trash. There is not fixing it. The passenger side is rusted underneath where you can't see so it could be fixed or changed out that will be up to you. The front passenger fender is the same way. It is rusted at the bottom and can be fixed or changed out. The rear quarters will need a little work but are fixable. Unless you find a car that sat in a garage or in a barn all these years you are going to have a hard time finding a rust free car. These are typical rust places for a 66 mustang. The interior is all there just needs restoring. The kit is pretty cheap to do this. I have a cd player that I will let go with it as well. I have a clear title to it. I also have a rear bumper for it. I don't think I took a pic of it. This would make a good project or a father son project. This is one of those cars you can drive and work on it a little along. I live in Jonesboro Louisiana and the car will have to be picked up here. I will require full payment be made within seven days of the end of auction. If you are a serious buyer and want to talk to me and ask questions email me or call me at 318-278-1069. The car runs and drives fine but due to the tires and brakes needing a little work I would recommend bringing a trailer. Again if you are in question about something or need more pics just let me know. Also please it cost money and time to list these auctions so be sure you are 100% sure you want it before you bid.

2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]

Sat, 28 Jun 2014

When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."

Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.

Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
