1969 Ford Mustang Sportsroof/ Fastback Q code 428 Mach 1. This beautiful car originally came
with a 428/ C6 automatic trans, AC, Power Steering, and Power Disc Brakes. This car had sat for 15 years in a
garage in pieces before I bought it. I spent many, many hours bringing this car back to life! The original 428 was
just rebuilt, and the C6 was just rebuilt too. I have the receipts for the work done also! The engine was rebuilt
to factory specs, except that I added a mild Comp cam to it. The car runs like a beast! The motor has about 50
miles on it since the car has been finished. The car has a fresh multi stage paint job, and the color is Acapulco
Blue, and the hood black out treatment was painted on, it's not vinyl. Most of the exterior chrome was replaced,
with a few original pieces being polished up. The interior was redone, pretty much top to bottom. The car came from
AZ, so there is NO RUST on the car. The floors look great, torque boxes, inner fenders, and trunk all look great!
The car still has the original sheet metal, with no signs of ever being in an accident! The car has been garage
kept, and taken to a few events. It's not perfect but, its a beautiful car that was loved!
MARTI REPORT: The report indicates that this car is 1 of only 1280 with the 428/ C6 combination. It was a 428 CJ
car with non Ram Air
Engine/ Trans: The original 428 was rebuilt by a shop here in Las Vegas that has been around for 40 years, and has
a warranty. The trans was rebuilt a few months ago also. The engine was bored .030 over, heads were redone, new
comp cam, all new bearings, lifters, and runs great. The crank was a 1U, Heads were C8OE-N heads, the block has the
C on the back, reinforced mains, and I have pictures of these as the engine was assembled. Under the hood are many
new parts like, new water pump, alternator, fuel pump, starter, Edelbrock Carb, radiator, Optima Battery, brake
master cylinder, and tune up stuff. The original Exhaust Manifolds are on the car also, C8OE Factory Headers, those
cost me a pretty penny and they are in great shape with no defects. The car still has the AC heater box, an
compressor but, the other AC items are not on the car, and were removed before I bought the car. The C6 received a
shift kit, and is sealed up nicely. The trans is not original to the car.
Interior/ Exterior: The interior has new carpet, new sound deadener, new seat upholstery, new door panels, new
dash, new headliner, and looks great! The gauges all work on the car, blinkers work, heater/ AC blower motor works.
New weather stripping on the doors, and roof rail too. New end caps for the doors and quarter panels. The windows
roll up and down correctly, doors shut nicely.
The exterior was just repainted to Acapulco Blue, and looks amazing. It was multiple coats of paint and clear coat
with a wet sand and buff to finish the car off. The wheels and tires are brand new, Torque Thrust 2 wheels with BFG
tires. New bumpers, new windshield, new moldings, new antenna, and a few other small new items. Under the car looks
great with new Flowmaster 40 series exhaust, and the car has the correct rear end housing but, the Nodular 3rd
member was not with the car when I bought it. It has 3:23 gears in the rear, and the pinon seal was replaced after
I had the unit inspected.

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes
Fri, 07 Dec 2012At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
Ford recalling nearly 700k Escape CUVs, C-Max hybrids over two separate safety issues
Fri, 09 May 2014Poor Escape. Ever since its launch in 2012, Ford's small CUV has been the subject of many, many, many recalls. And today, The Detroit News is reporting that Ford is adding two more recalls to the 2013-14 model year Escape's permanent record, one of them also involves the C-Max hybrid hatchback.
The first recall, covering 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles, is due to a software glitch that could cause the airbags - specifically, the safety canopy - to not deploy in a timely fashion during rollover crashes. According to the News, Ford says no crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this problem.
The second recall, covering 692,700 Escapes, is related to the door handles. The News reports that the exterior door handles could open while the vehicle is in motion, and could also fail to latch properly. Once again, no crashes or injuries have occurred because of this. The National Highway Safety Traffic Administration has not issued an official notice on either recall as of this writing.
GM also sheds parts from its pickups to boost payload ratings
Thu, 31 Jul 2014The row between Ford and Ram over who boasts the best-in-class tow rating for heavy duty pickups has revealed a number of things. Chief among them is a report that Ford removes items like the spare tire, jack, radio and center console from its vehicles in a bid to lower its base curb weight and therefore keep the truck's gross vehicle weight rating down.
For those that need a refresher, GVWR is the vehicle's curb weight plus its maximum payload. A lower GVWR allows Ford to station its F-450 among the so-called Class III pickups, despite the fact that internally, it has the makings of a more brutish Class IV truck.
Ford explains away these deletions, saying a customer could order their vehicle in such a manner. It has also come to light that Ford is not the only automaker to engage in such practices.
