Make: Ford
Drive Type: Rear
Model: Mustang
Mileage: 100,000
Trim: convertible
Up for bids is this original 1969 ford mustang convertible. It is in need of a full restoration but is very buildable. It would be a good candidate for a shelby clone or just a good original convertible. It has seen better days but is still very buildable. It has its good points and bad points. It has a clear title. The car has factory disc brakes. It looks to be the original color still with the original interior. I will start with the good and end with the bad. I will start with the body. The body panels are all pretty much repairable. The rear quarters will need a little body work but are not rusted out and are repairable. The doors could be fixed. The passenger door has some rust on the bottom side of it. The fenders are okay. The hood is okay. I have the headlight buckets and they are okay. The top frame is okay. The windshield and trim arouond it are okay. It will need a new taillight panel. I have the grille and the front pieces. The trunk lid is okay. The rear frame rails are okay. The outer rockers are okay. The drivers frame rails are all good. What it needs. The floors have already been cut out and need replacing which is normal in a convertible. The inner rockers have some rust in them. They are not completely gone. The passenger one is worse than the drivers. They could be patched and used but that will be up to the buyer. The passenger torque box is crusty. The front rail under the battery box has a little place that will need some work. The trunk also has some places around where the gas tank goes on the passenger side. I took pics of everything. They are all easy fixes if you know how to weld. This car is still structurly sound. It does not sag like some convertibles do. It is still very buildable. The dash and all that stuff is still in it. I have the keys to it. The motor and transmission is still in it but I am sure it will need rebuilding. It has the style steel wheels on it. I have all the seats to it. The only other bad thing about it is the door glass and quarter glass are missing. The windshield is good but the door and quarter glasses are gone. I have a clear title to it. This is a project car as advertised but it very buildable. It rolls ans steers fine. It is easy to load on a trailer. If you have any other questions or need more info just let me know. I can store it as long as needed but will require full payment within seven days of the end of auction. I will accept cash in person, bank wire transfer, or certified bank check as payment. The car will have to be picked up in Jonesboro Louisiana. Please ask all questions before bidding if you need to know something or are not sure of something.

2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang
Fri, 26 Jul 2013Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
Ford Australia pulls the ol' talking car prank
Mon, 07 Apr 2014Siri from Apple has proven that being able to talk to your technology doesn't always work perfectly. But what if it could eventually go far enough to give a personality to inanimate objects like our cars? Ford took just this path to comedic effect by playing a prank on many unsuspecting Australians, in a new commercial for its EcoSport compact crossover.
The Aussies seem very nonchalant about having a random parked car talk to them, and they seem surprisingly game when it asks them to get in, call a celebrity and tell a joke. (We're guessing there are some hilarious outtakes, too.) Scroll down to watch some folks from Down Under have a conversation with Ford's CUV.
1969 Ford Talladega GPT Special is a SEMA showstopper
Thu, 07 Nov 2013Rad Rides by Troy has unleashed upon the SEMA crowds this custom 1969 Ford Torino Talladega GT Special, and it's a beauty. The car calls to mind the classic Holman Moody stock cars that circled NASCAR tracks in the late 1960's, driven by the likes of Mario Andretti, Dan Gurney and David Pearson, who won the Grand National title in both 1968 and '69 in a Ford Torino.
Even though it has plenty of stock-car influence, there's nothing retro about the car's design or powertrain, other than the fact that the engine is based on a Ford Boss 429 block. Fuel injection, aftermarket aluminum heads and a high-tech custom computer system combine to send 750 reliable ponies to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. Brakes measure 14-inches all around, with six-piston Wilwood calipers up front and four-piston units out back.
There's custom bodywork abound, painted in a two-tone Tennessee Whiskey Gold and Daytona Sand finish. Check out all the amazing details in the image gallery below, and scroll down to read all about it in designer Troy Trepanier's own words.
