1965 - Ford Mustang, US $17,000.00, image 1

Up for sale is a beautiful 1965 Mustang with removable fastback roof. You will be the talk of the town and the center of attention at car shows. The body is very solid with no signs of any accidents over the years. The front aprons are original and also have never been damaged. Every single item in the front suspension is new, it has new shocks, springs(two sets) , upper and lower control arms, pitman arm, idler arm and center drag link. I had the spindles, strut arms and cross member professionally sand blasted and powder coated. I upgraded the sway bar from the original 11/16" to a 1-1/8" powder coated bar. T he floors were replaced in the past as well. The paint is fresh base coat Classic White/Sonic Blue stripes, the clear coat has been cut and buffed to a beautiful shine. The interior carpet, seats, seatbelts, B&M Shifter, dash pad, door panels, gauge bezels and steering wheel are all new. The engine is a super strong 289 CID V-8 with many upgrades including a 4 Barrel Holley Carburetor and throaty sounding dual exhaust. This car starts with the flick of a key and really moves! Most of the chrome and stainless is new or in very good shape. 17" Riddler wheels with new Sumitomo low profile tires, (front - 215/45 R17 & rear - 225/45 R17). a Custom Autosound USA-66 deck was also installed. It looks very close to the original but has more current circuitry with CD changer capabilities, AUX input and station pre-sets. I installed a pair of Infinity Kappa 6x9s in the rear and a Retrosound R410N 4x10 in the dash. I mounted a 4 channel amplifier in the trunk to power the higher quality speakers. Invested around $700 total in the stereo. Feel free to come and visit and take it for a spin, it won't disappoint. Here are some common questions I get about the removable top:ยท How is the roof attached? Is the roof water-tight? The roof weighs approx. 75 pounds and can be removed in less than 2 minutes. The top is secured by two bolts in the front and two wing nuts in the rear. There is a metal header attached to the roof. On this metal header, there are two tinnerman nuts (mustang fender nut clips) - the two bolts go thru the mustang convertible sun visor bracket dowel pin guide hole and thread into the tinnerman nuts, The fiberglass roof (up front) has a gasket that sits on the windshield stainless steel trim.

The 11 most expensive American cars ever

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

Here's a Pro Tip for all you would-be classic car investors out there: buy Ferraris. With the Pebble Beach festivities kicking off this week, including any number high end car auctions, we thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some to the most expensive cars ever sold with the bang of a gavel. Trouble is, once you get past the splendor of everyone's favorite Italian sports car maker, that list is pretty boring.
Ferrari dominates the all-time auction sales list; seven of the top ten most expensive cars sold wear the Cavallino Rampante badge, as well as more than half of the top fifty. Sure, a nearly $30-million Mercedes-Benz W196 racecar might be the new top dog as of last year, but it's even possible that Ferrari could take that title back in Monterey this weekend. Long story short: we think a list of the most expensive American cars ever sold at auction is a lot more entertaining to read. Hell, our list has a friggin' Batmobile on it, how can it go wrong?
Follow on below for the top ten cars that are red, white, blue and a whole lot of green.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.

Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
