Hello, I am listing my 66 mustang for auction. I have owned this car for about 15 years. I am a car guy and a ford guy. I believe this is my best description of how I acquired this car. So the previous owner possibly the original owner drove it and loved it until the harmonic balancer came apart and broke the crankshaft at which point the car was put into storage. Either a truck body or a garage with a bad roof but the car sat until the roof of whatever storage situation was being used started to leak. Water leaked down on the car and made its way through the trunk and did a number on the quarters and trunk Pan on the drivers side. At some point around 92-94 the car was donated for a tax right off and that's how it ended up at the salvage yard were I found it. I traded a Harley for the car. When I got the car home I pulled the engine sent it to the machine shop ordered a crank kit and a new balancer and reassembled it. I used reproduction parts and paints to reassemble to keep it original as possible. I had it running and very strong I might ad however it's been sitting since 2001-2003 somewhere in that range. The car had 4 repaints of silver blue metallic on it so I replaced and or stripped any pieces I could so front fenders are ford stamped units. New front and rear valances a full qtr on the drivers side and a partial on the passenger side. I etched primed the car covered it up to work on other projects and never got back to it. It's been inside my garage covered for pretty long now and I just have not had the motivation to finish it. I'm getting reading to build a new shop in march and I have to give something up to make room. So here it is. It was hard for me to take great pictures because the car was buried and its winter I can add more if necessary. It's a neat car as mustangs go and a true GT with air. Stuff I think is cool are the original floor mats FOMOCO mufflers and a old Saint Christopher pin on the visor. The glass is out window mechanism out most of the interior is still in the car AM stereo, pony interior. I attach'es some grainy photos of the car when I got it back in the day. Thanks for looking.

Former Ford president, Jaguar chairman Nick Scheele dead at 70
Sun, 20 Jul 2014We have the privilege here at Autoblog of reporting a lot of good news, but it is our duty as well to report the bad news and sad news as well. And this is one of those occasions as the automotive industry mourns the passing of one of its leaders.
Nick Scheele was born in the UK in 1944 and joined the Ford Motor Company upon graduating from the University of Durham in 1966, staying within the Blue Oval's portfolio for the entirety of his career. After moving to North America in 1978, he rose through the ranks to become president of Ford's Mexican operations in 1988. After acquiring Jaguar, Ford appointed Scheele as its chairman.
Scheele subsequently acted as chairman of all of Ford's European operations, making difficult decisions to take the division out of the red and into the black. He briefly headed up Ford's North American division before he was appointed in 2001 as president and chief operating officer of the global automaker, working under CEO Bill Ford following the departure of Jacques Nasser departure and retaining the role until his retirement in 2005.
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Fri, 16 May 2014Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
