Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: Rear

Mileage: 100,000
Trim: coupe
Up for bids is this 1967 ford mustang coupe. It was a high optioned car when it was new. It was originally a C code 289 car with automatic transmission. It had the deluxe interior package. It also was a A/C, power steering, disc brake, and console car. This is a project car. It needs to be restored. It would be a good car to rebuild because it would be a high optioned coupe that would be worth more money than a plain coupe. This car was originally a vintage burgandy car with deluxe parchment interior and a vinyl top. This car had been stored in a barn for the last 15 years when I got it. The interior is pretty complete. The floor console is gone. The door panels are gone. Everything else is there. The fiberglass pieces on the seats are still in good shape. It has the clock in the dash. It has the over head console. The body is a solid body. It will not need much body work. The body panels are good. The rear quarters and trunk drop offs are good. The trunk floor is good. The rear frame rails are good. All the torque boxes are good. The fenders and doors are good. The front frame rails are good except there is a small place under the battery tray where there is a little rust in the frame rail. It is not that bad but it is there. It could be fixed with a patch. The car will need some sanding and a few spots worked out but the body is in good shape to be original and 40+ years old. The trunk lid is good. I have a good hood to go with it. I have all the front end pieces that are off of it. It has the front disc brakes on it. This car has not been on the road in years. It will need to be restored but would make a great restoration project. The floor pans will need replacing. You rarely find a mustang with good floor pans. All the glass is good in it except the windshield. The motor and transmission are not original. It has a 302 engine in it with a automatic transmision behind it. The guy said it ran when it sat it in it several years ago and was okay. I tried to turn it over by hand but couldn't get it to turn so either i didn't get a good grip on it and couldn't turn it or it is stuck. You might could fill it up with marvel mystery oil and let it sit for a few days and it might break loose and be fine but I can't make any promises on the condition of the motor and transmission. If you are rebuilding the car you would probably want to go through the motor and rebuild it anyway so it will be new but it could be fine. I have a clear title to it. If you have questions or need more info just let me know. I took several pics of it but if you need more just let me know. I will accept cash in person, certified bank check, or bank wire transfer as payment for the car. The car is located in Jonesboro Louisiana. I can store it as long as needed but I will require full payment within seven days after the end of auction. Please ask all questions before you bid and make sure you want it.

Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains
Wed, 21 May 2014If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.
Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
