Offered for your consideration is a very special 2006 Shelby GT-H. Shelby American Automobiles serial number CSM 06H354, this vehicle is one of only 500 GT-H’s built in 2006, and is one of only 23 sold to Hertz Vice Presidents, thus never saw rental car duty. These Executive Cars were never placed in the rental fleet. I am the second owner of this vehicle, having purchased it from the original owner Hertz VP directly. It has led a pampered life, showing only 8804 miles on the odometer, as of this ad placement. Always garaged, and never driven in inclement weather. This car is for the discerning collector. Its pedigree is legendary, having been produced to commemorate the 40th anniversary of Hertz’s original tie up with Carroll Shelby back on 1966. This GT-H comes complete with literally a stunning level of documentation, including: original Ford window sticker, original invoice from Shelby Automobiles to Hertz for work performed at Shelby’s Las Vegas shop, what appears to be every email correspondence between the Hertz VP who purchased the vehicle new and the Hertz organization facilitating its production and shipment, and collateral ephemera made available by Hertz to the purchasing VP. The car is in close to mint condition, although there are a couple very small paint/stripe blemishes. Car is completely original - no cosmetic item replacements, etc. Mechanically, it is excellent, and passed an extensive state safety inspection a short time ago. The car is 100% stock and unmodified, with only a replacement Ford battery. All 2006 Shelby GT-H’s began as 2006 Ford Mustang GT Premium cars, however Hertz tweaked the normal package, for example substituting the V6 car’s faux rear gas cap featuring the pony instead of the standard GT cap. The vehicles were shipped to the Las Vegas Shelby American facility for conversion into true, serialized Shelby vehicles. Shelby work performed included Ford Racing performance suspension & handling package installation, Ford Racing exhausts and pipes, addition of a cold air intake, computer reflash, conversion of the dual exhaust into a free-flowing exhaust with X-pipe in place of the standard Ford H-pipe, 3.55 rear axle gearing not available from Ford directly on automatic equipped 2006 Mustang GT’s, exclusive fiberglass hand made Shelby hood with locking pins, unique front clip, unique grill, Hertz racing stripes, unique exterior and interior badging, steel wire with lead clasp engine tether to prohibit engine tampering, and unique Hertz exterior chrome fender badges. I am happy to work with buyer to facilitate their chosen transportation as reasonable. Full payment in hand/bank cleared on checks and money orders required to facilitate transfer of ownership/ handover to transportation company. The bottom line is this is one of the very finest 2006 Shelby GT-H’s in existence. There is NO other GT-H better documented than this vehicle. If you must have the very best example, please give this car your serious consideration.

Ford opens the doors on its Swedish rally skunkworks
Fri, 19 Sep 2014It's always amazing to see how different kinds of racecars are made. Formula One racers are often constructed in modern architectural marvels that hint at some of the cutting-edge technology going into the racing. Conversely, rallying is all about sliding around on a varied course as fast as possible, but it often leaves a vehicle caked in mud. So it makes some sense Olsbergs MSE, or simply (OMSE) rally car shop in Nynashamn, Sweden, shows technological sophistication in a more down-to-earth setting. It builds Ford Fiesta ST racers for Global Rallycross there, and this new video gives viewers a tour through the work.
Former rally driver Andreas Eriksson runs OMSE. These days instead of racing, he and the company's 46 employees are building Ford racers from scratch. A ton of work goes into constructing each one, and according to Eriksson, it takes 400 hours to complete each body. At times, things are so busy that some of the technicians live in the shop in apartments that are on premises. There's even a restaurant to keep them fed. Sadly the dyno room is empty during this visit, though.
By the time OMSE is done, a rallycross car might resemble a Fiesta ST on the outside, but as you see in the video, it's a completely different beast underneath. Check out the work it takes to build one of them, and scroll down to read more about it in the official release.
Ford F-250 boots Cadillac Escalade from atop thieves' most-wanted list
Tue, 09 Jul 2013The Ford F-Series has been America's best-selling truck for decades, but along with the good comes the bad, apparently. In addition to being popular with consumers, the Highway Loss Data Institute notes that the F-Series Super Duty has risen in popularity among thieves. Based on its new study, the four-wheel drive crew cab F-250 Super Duty has topped the list for the country's highest rate of insurance theft claims, knocking the Cadillac Escalade from the top spot - a distinction the luxury SUV has held since this annual report was first established in 2003.
To reach its findings, HLDI looks at theft data from the previous three model years (in this case 2010-2012) to determine the frequency of claims for a particular make and mode,l as well as the average payment per claim. As the report points out, the claims aren't always for the theft of the entire vehicle - they can include components (say, wheels and tires) or property taken from the vehicle. At seven claims per 1,000 insured vehicles, the F-250 is six times more likely to suffer a theft claim than the average vehicle.
The Cadillac likely dropped from the top of the list to sixth due to additional theft-prevention features including a steering wheel lock and inclination sensor for the alarm, but GM's other fullsize trucks and SUVs still occupy eight of the list's 10 spots. Some of the least stolen vehicles with below-average loss payments include the Lexus HS250h, Hyundai Tucson, Honda CR-V and Dodge Journey. Head on over to the HLDI's website for the full list that shows the most and least popular vehicles among thieves from 2010 through 2012.
We spy the Ford Mustang King Cobra early at SEMA
Tue, 04 Nov 2014As is the case with most auto shows, waiting for the reveal of hot new models is the worst part. So, while our own Drew Phillips has been wandering the halls here in Las Vegas since they unlocked the doors for SEMA 2014, we didn't expect him to come back with any big reveals until later in the day. Until this happened.
Meandering by the Ford stand, Phillips eagle-eyed a trunk lid that caught his attention. Popping out from an otherwise draped 2015 Mustang, the matte black lid clearly has the name King Cobra embossed on the rear.
That name is interesting for a few reasons: to start, Ford hasn't used the Cobra name (without "Jet" attached) since way back in 2004, so a new snake is certainly something to take note of. Second, the King Cobra name dates all the way back to the ill-remembered Mustang II, meaning there is a clear link to Blue Oval history here.
