up for auction is a real 1970 ford mustang mach1 and not a clone.first off let me say that the entire car will need gone over and restored because it has been sitting in a garage since about the early 1980's.the car was a texas car that moved to kentucky at some time in its life and thats where i got it, and had it shipped here from. i will try to describe the car as accurately as i can.first off the major parts of any mustang that are usually rusted and rotted out are not rotted on this car as i will list.all the frame rails both front and back and both sides are not rotted and need nothing done to them.one torque box needs a patch put on it but the rest are very nice.the quarter panels are also very nice originals that need very little done to them.the inside of the trunk is also very nice with no patches or rot showing.the passenger door needs little work.the drivers door has a rust hole in the bottom rear corner and a dent in it so i would just put on a new skin.the door frame is in good shape so it can be used over.the trunk lid has rust and a hole in the corner so it will also need replaced.the floor pans have some rust and holes and also a piece cut out where i think someone wanted to put a 4 speed in but never did,i would replace the floor with a one piece complete floor just to make it look perfect and a one piece is much easier to do than putting in sections.all the front framework and rad support is in great shape there is no rot where the front bumper bolts on as most have, there is not even a rot hole under the battery tray where they all rot.the nuts pulled through the rear aprons for the hood hinges so they will need changed the old ones were correctly removed by taking out the spot welds and temporary ones were put in just so the car doesnt shift when transporting it.the drivers side shock tower had a hole cut in it to get to the grease fittings and the wrap around part was welded solid on both sides for extra support.you can change these if you want when changing the rear aprons.fenders are not all rotted out but do have dings and dents so i would just replace them anyway. other rust that i can find that needs repaired is some around the windshield lip,roof and cowl panel.the hood had a hole cut in it for air and a aftermarket scoop put on it as so many cars did in that era.the wheels and tires were also changed and now has huge 50 series in the rear and 60 series in the front.the engine transmission and rear end are as far as i can tell the original ones from the car.i cant find any serial numbers stamped in anything but all the driveline parts are dated less than 90 days before the car was finished.as a matter of fact all the major engine parts were made in a week.engine block 9h13 intake 9h14 heads 9h9 and 9h11 definitely all original to this engine.the engine is a 351 cleveland factory 4 barrel with 4 barrel heads.i removed the engine and transmission and removed the intake and heads to check the condition of the engine.it seems to be all original and i dont think it was ever taken apart before me.the speedometer reads 85,069 miles and the title says 85,000 miles on it and i truly believe these are original miles.engine needs rebuilt from sitting just like the rest of the car.i cant possibly describe every single part of this car as this description is already getting pretty long so if you have any questions about anything just e-mail me.i am including a copy of the marti report in the listing so you can check out all the info on the car.i have to sell it.just e-mail me with any questions at all that you might have.i encourage anyone who lives close to come and check out the car in person,or have someone come check it out for you.

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.
Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]
Fri, 27 Jun 2014Ford 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.
Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
