Orange, California, United States

This listing is for my 1970 Ford Country Sedan. It has the original numbers matching 390V8 with a C6 automatic transmission. This is an original California car, it does not have any rust and has not been wrecked! I have the CA title in my name, the license is current through January 2015, this car does NOT require a CA smog test.  I bough this car from a friend of mine who owned a tow yard. In order to get the car re-registered we had to do a salvage sale, hence the salvage title. This has been my daily driver on and off over the past seven years. The engine and transmission were rebuilt at about 98,000 miles by the previous owner.  All the work that has been done to the car since I have owned it has been done in the last four years and less than five thousand miles. The car is now, almost, completely done. Only the interior needs a little work and a good detail. The car was recently painted. The car still needs a little work to be complete. The front door panels are not as nice as I would like, the car needs a new headliner, some small interior trim and the rear side storage compartments need to be carpeted. Now on the positive side. The car has leather bucket seats, the front two are power. The rear two fold flat to increase load capacity. The power steering box is new, it also has a new power steering pump, new power steering hoses, a new Edelbrock  4BBl carburetor, a new Malory unilite distributor, new plug wires, new spark plugs, a new HP coil and new water pump. It has a new thermostat, the tires have less than five hundred miles on them, the heater and defroster system is a new. All the hoses and belts are new, it has a new aluminum cross flow radiator, new brakes, new front spindles, new front brake calipers, new tie rod ends, new idler arm, new upper and lower control arm bushings, new strut rod bushings and new brake hoses. The rear axle bearings and seals were replaced. It has a new NASCAR style dash board with all new gauges and switches, the instrument and dashboard wiring was all replaced along with new fuse panels and circuit breakers. The new dashboard and speedometer were installed at the same time as most of the other work was done. The car only has 2,402 mile on it since the dashboard and most of the other work was completed. The old speedometer had 129,464 mile on it . So the total mileage on the car is only 131,866! The carpet is new, it has a floor mounted shifter, the steering column was replaced and a new steering wheel. The paint is only about two month old, never even been waxed yet! This car is a great daily driver, it starts, runs and drives very good. I wouldn't hesitated to drive it on a long trip! wish I had the money and health to do the little things to finish this car. But I don't, so I have to sell it! I am selling my wagon as-is with NO RESERVE! The high bidder gets it, bid to win, this is a great driver! Thanks for looking, good luck bidding.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters

Sun, 28 Sep 2014

The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

Justin Bell makes a horrible policeman

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

If you're wondering what type of person makes a good police officer, it seems a racecar driver doesn't. Let us rephrase that: Justin Bell, a racecar driver and the host of Motor Trend's World's Fastest Car Show, recently got behind the wheel of a 5.0-liter Ford Mustang police car with Sergeant Daniel Shrubb, co-founder of DRAGG (Drag Racing Against Gangs and Graffiti), and proved that his high-performance-driving skillset is a bit too aggressive for police duty.
While it's easy to get carried away in a Mustang GT, a patrol car driver must maintain some sort of restraint while pursuing a criminal, so as not to come off as a reckless driver to the public. We'll admit, some pursuit techniques are counter-intuitive to performance driving (stay off the gas in a lane-change exercise?), but Bell's judicious use of the handbrake can't be normal procedure.
Watch "The One With The Ford Mustang 5.0 Police Car" (yes, we caught the Friends reference too) below to see some shenanigans in one of Michigan's finest patrol cars.
