1968 ford mustang coupe base model. No air conditioning. Front wheel disc brakes. 289 motor.

Has been parked, and not started since 1987. It is a non running car. Motor does turn over.

Would love to restore the car myself. But time, money, and a little bit more work than I am capable of. So have decided to sell the car. Donating proceeds to "love without boundaries" and "Holt international".

Will try to cover everything I know about the car from the past 4 months:

Has been sitting since 1987.

Car is very original, and a very restorable project. Has original paint on car- except drivers rear quarter panel area. Can see it in picture.

Overall undercarriage very intact. All surface rust, except a seam at drivers side floor panel. Did not show up too well in pictures.

Rust on body. Pictures should give you an idea of what is there. Looks like all major body work is back part of car.

If have an area you need a better picture, let me know. What you see is what you get.

Have original keys, owners manual, and a few misc receipts, a a lot of history told to me of car from my neighbor.

Note: adding pictures shortly- iPad giving me problems...

Interior is in excellent shape, with a little cracking on side of drivers seat.

Shoulder belt straps were cut out of the car at some point. Small cut in headliner.

Fading, aging on plastic chrome trim around gauges.

Trunk lid is rusted on inner lip and needs to be replaced.

Both front and rear bumpers are damaged, and need to be replaced.

The back of car hit hard enough to damage drivers side quarter panel by taillight.

Also hit hard enough from back to push gas filler/taillight panel in about an inch. Can see when looking from side view.

All tires are bad. Do hold are for transporting.

Fuel tank probably shot. Gas looks like watered down pancake syrup.

Needs battery, and battery tray( rusted)

No spark at spark plugs when Turning motor over.

Car is for sale locally. Have right to end auction early.

Will answer any questions posted.

Or call

Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.
