NEW PPG URETHANE PAINT JOB,  JULY 2014

 

Two stage clear coated paint. Trim and exterior moldings were removed, door handles, tire rack, lenses, bumpers and the like; then paint was stripped. The body was then fully primed with PCL primer surfacer, then was block sanded by hand to minimize any waves in the body. It was then primed again with PCL and block sanded by hand again for smoothness and gloss. The body was sprayed with a sealer (in a professional spray booth by a 28 year painter), followed by numerous coats of PPG red base coat. Four coats of 2:1 urethane clear coat were then sprayed over the color. Paint has not been cut or buffed. (In my opinion, the paint and body look really nice ~look at that shine!) The grill was re coated in bright silver. The interior floors are painted with spray on bed liner, Herculiner. Engine bay painted to match. Hard top included to those wanting it.

 

 Fender flares were replaced new with all new fasteners and rubber beading.

 

Excellent looking new chrome upper side trim moldings were added all around the truck, complete with new fasteners from Dave Carpenter.

Geneva Motor Show highlights from Zach

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.

2015 Ford Mustang dealer order guide surfaces

Tue, 13 May 2014

Details about the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang continue to leak out. In fact, at this point, it's more of a stream than a drip. Its option prices are already available, and now the full ordering guide is on the web for all of the trims thanks to the Mustang 6G forum. Ford is rapidly running out of secrets to keep about its new sports coupe.
The 21-page guide can be perused in the gallery below and contains all of the standard features, colors, options codes, descriptions. Generally everything you might want to know about the 'Stang is there, other than its price or power. It even shows off the available wheel designs.
The guide finally gives away the contents of the Performance Package for the EcoBoost and GT trims. The EcoBoost's package includes: A larger rear sway bar, new chassis tuning, larger brake rotors, 19-inch black wheels, retuned driver assistance systems, an aluminum dash panel, added gauge pack, 3.55 limited slip rear differential, larger radiator, heavy-duty front springs and spoiler delete. When the options pricing leaked, it indicated the package would cost $1,995. If that is the case, it seems like quite a deal.
