1989 Ford Mustang Lx 5.0 Hatchback (mca Show Winner) on 2040-cars
Greenwood, Indiana, United States

1989 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 (2013 MCA Indy National Event Show Winner) I had this car listed earlier this year here on EBay, but it did not sell as it did not hit my reserve price. I am actually kind of glad it didn't sell, because just shortly after I had it listed the transmission went out and the last thing I will do is misrepresent something. It now has a new trans. and is ready to go. I do have more invested in the car than I am asking, but isn't that the way it always is? If you are looking for a VERY Clean and nice Foxbody Mustang, than this is the one for you! Up for auction is this rare color combination 1989 Mustang LX 5.0 - This car is just one of the few left out there that isn't cut up and been made into a race car. The engine is all stock and original with only 60,955 miles. The only performance addition is an K&N air filter. I did install a new water pump, 160 degree thermostat, belt tensioner pulley, intake gaskets, timing chain gasket, oil pan gasket, serpentine belt, hoses, and a new aluminum radiator when I detailed the engine compartment. All new A/C components include, compressor, receiver/dryer, condenser, and hoses. The A/C has been converted to 134A and blows ice cold. The car has a fresh rebuilt transmission with "less than 50 miles on it", done by Dan Gilsdorf at Silverfox Transmissions. For the internal information regarding this AOD-450 click on this link http://www.silverfoxtrans.com/silverfoxtrans.com/TM_AOD-450.html. Also installed in the transmission is a hi-performance valve body from Silverfox Transmissions. The SPT-R (with a manual O/D lock-out valve body really woke this car up)! The shift pattern is altered so that the user can command each gear separately, and has a 12 volt solenoid for overdrive engagement. No more “1-D-1 Shuffle”!!! This VB can be shifted manually to higher gears while the lower gears maintain fully automatic function controlled with TV pressure. I hid the 12V toggle switch for this feature in the ash tray located on the console. I also went ahead and installed a brand new Circle D torque convertor as Dan recommended. This link shows the specs. for the convertor. https://www.circledspecialties.com/p-64-ford-12-hp-4r100-torque-converter.aspx With the new 8.8 3.73:1 Ford Motorsports rear gear the car BARKS the tires in the 1-2 shift and CHERPS the tires in the 2-3 shift. It has the 5-lug conversion kit from Late Model Mustang with 28- Spline axles. Has the factory headers with a BBK H-Pipe & Flowmaster American Thunder 409S stainless steel kit w/ polished tips. (I still have the original pipe with the convertors that will go with the car). The car has an awesome stance as it has Eiback Sportline lowering kit which dropped it 1.7" in the front and 1.5" in the rear. New front KYB Struts and Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates for the proper frontend alignment. New KYB rear shocks also. New front disc brakes & bearings as part of the 5-lug conversion. Wheels are Billet Specialties Street Lites. Front is 15x3.5 w/1.75 Backspacing, the rears are 15x8 w/5.5 Backspacing. (no tire rubbing issues). The front tires are Kumbo Power Star 165/80R-15 and the rears are Nitto Drag Radials 275/50-15. (The factory 4-lug 10 hole wheels go with the car also.) The exterior color is Cabernet Red with a RARE interior color of Saddle Tan. The car has all of its original NOS sheet medal & body panels and upholstery & carpet. Again this car is very clean and highly detailed. It has won Best of Show in it's class at the Arthritis show in Dublin, OH in 2012 and it was a Class winner at the 2013 Race to Indy Mustang Club of America National Event in Indianapolis, IN YouTube video of this car at http://youtu.be/gbpsssHBSQk Car is For Sale AS-IS with No Warranty. Also For Sale locally and can be removed from EBay before the end of the auction. Require a $500.00 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours of the sale. Balance can be made via PayPal or Cash in person. My reserve price is set very reasonable for this grade and quality of automobile. It is the buyers responsibility to have car inspected if you feel the need to. Also buyers responsibility for all shipping charges. The vehicle is located in Greenwood, IN 46143. |

GM announces 6 recalls covering nearly 720k cars
Wed, 23 Jul 2014General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

Hennessy wastes no time in supercharging the 2015 Cadillac Escalade
Wed, 23 Apr 2014The ink is still drying on the all-new 2015 Cadillac Escalade sales brochures, but that hasn't stopped Texas-based Hennessey Performance (HPE) from leaping out of the gate with its own high-performance variant. In stock form, the big fourth-generation Cadillac flagship arrives with a new small block naturally aspirated 6.2-liter Ecotec3 V8 delivering 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Fresh out of the showroom, the 5,900-pound SUV will sprint to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
While that is plenty fast for some owners, others don't want to be shamed by a 550 horsepower Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG or a 510 horsepower Land Rover Range Rover Sport - both will leave the stock Escalade at a stoplight.
The team at HPE has come to the rescue with its HPE550 supercharger upgrade, which includes a belt-driven supercharger, air-to-water intercooler, recalibrated engine management software and a three-year/36,000 mile powertrain warranty. With 6 psi of boost, the direct-injected 6.2-liter is tuned to deliver an impressive 557 horsepower and 542 pound-feet of torque - gains of 32 percent and 18 percent, respectively, over stock. Although HPE isn't releasing performance figures as of yet, our math says that should be enough power to put the two Europeans in the Cadillac's rearview mirror. The company also offers a set of 20-inch lightweight H10 forged monoblock wheels, to further improve performance.
2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Wed, 12 Dec 20122012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
