You are looking at a K-Code 1965 Mustang Convertible. This is a VERY RARE car with great color combinations Blue on Black!! Some people think there was less than 500 1965 K-code convertibles made but there is no way of knowing how many for sure. This is somewhat of a barn find that was sitting in a garage for the last 25 years and the owner realized he couldn't restore the car the way it should be done. There is a clear title with this car. This car does run very good and strong but it isn't the original motor, it now has a 289 2 barrel in it. It does have the original exhaust manifolds on it yet. It has a 4 speed top loader tranny but I don't know if it is original to the car or not. It has the original 9" rear end in it. The car does run and lot drive good but there are no brakes. It does have the correct Z-bar. It has the correct quick ratio steering box. It has a power top that works but it needs new top material on it since there is a hole above the drivers seat. All the under hood aprons appear to be very nice. The doors open and close nice. The frame rails and inner and outer rockers all look nice. The floor pans do need some repair but they don't need to be replaced. The car does need to be restored as there is rust bubbles in the body as you can see in the pictures. The door tag reads as follows body - 76A, Color - 5, Trim - 26, Date 18Q, DSO - 55, Axle - 5, Trans - 5.
A $500 deposit is due within 24 hours the remainder is due in cash within 7 days. I would like the car to be picked up within 30 days. Unless prior arrangements have been made.
Please ask any and all questions. Thanks, Jeff

Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines
Mon, 27 May 2013Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.
EPA says fuel economy test for hybrids is accurate
Mon, 26 Aug 2013
The EPA says it stands behind its fuel economy test for hybrid vehicles following controversy about the testing process after Ford C-Max Hybrid customers and automotive journalists alike struggled to achieve 47 miles per gallon, the advertised mpg number, Automotive News reports. Ford responded to the issue almost two weeks ago by claiming that a 1970s-era EPA general label rule was responsible for the inaccurate mileage numbers, rerating the C-Max Hybrid's mpg numbers and offering customers rebates. Ford later said it didn't overstate the C-Max Hybrid's fuel economy and that it was surprised by the low numbers.
Ford technically didn't do anything wrong because it was following the general label rule, but agency regulator Christopher Grundler says the automaker was exploiting a loophole when it came up with the hybrid C-Max numbers, and that the testing process remains accurate. The general label rule allows vehicles that use the same engine and transmission and are in the same weight class to share fuel economy numbers, but it doesn't take into account other factors such as aerodynamic efficiency, which affects hybrids more drastically than non-hybrid vehicles. Ford originally used the Fusion Hybrid economy figures for the C-Max Hybrid and claimed the engineers didn't realize that its aerodynamic efficiency would affect fuel economy as much as it did.
J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
