1976 Ford Mustang II Cobra with a 302 V8 and Automatic Transmission

I am told the following was done before it was parked several years ago:

  • Engine block boiled with new freeze plugs & cam bearings.
  • Cam & New Lifters
  • Crankshaft Reconditioned
  • Overhaul Engine Kit - New pistons, rings, Connecting rods & Main bearings, Oil pump, Timing Chain, Gasket set.
  • New Radiator
  • Milidon Oil Pan
  • Rebuilt Carburetor
  • Rebuilt Automatic Transmission

I have never received any documentation to prove the work listed above and I have never started or driven the car.

Note: Included is the very rare Aluminum Rear Window Louvers and a brand new front spoiler (note: I was told the spoiler is for this model Mustang but cannot guaruntee it)

Please note that this car is being sold in non running condition and I am making no representations or warranties as to its condition.

VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS, and WITH ALL FAULTS"

I recommend and encourage any prospective buyers to thouroghly and personally inspect the car prior to placing any bids.

Unless you have made arrangements with me prior to bidding the car must be paid for in CASH upon in person pickup or if shipping must pay with cashiers check and allow 7 to 10 days for check to clear prior to pickup. ( absolutely NO PAYPAL, Personal CHECKS, MONEY ORDERS, etc.).

Vehicle must be picked up within 7 to 10 business days of auction end. After 10 days a storage fee of $25 per day will accrue and vehicle will not be released until storage fee is paid.

Note that paint appears better in pictures than it actually is - looks like it may have been partially repainted and sprayed with a clear coat - the clear is yellowed and chipping with numerous scratches and small dents - I would characterize rust as being minimal for this year car as they tended to be very rust prone. Interior is likewise rough with torn seats and missing carpet etc.

I added a picture of the Mustang II Cobra with Farrah Faucett on the hood for those of us who remember Charlie's Angels.

Several Mustang / Ford Brochures are also included ( see picture )

Please note that I poured a little gas into the carburetor and connected a battery and it did start and run momentarily and sounded pretty good.. Because it has been sitting for so many years I suspect the gas in the tank is bad - plus it smells aweful.

 

I tried the brakes and they seem to be working with decent pedal.

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).

Next Ford Raptor spotted wearing aluminum skin

Wed, 07 May 2014

Well, look at what we have here. Judging from these spy shots, Ford is indeed working on the next generation of its off-road-ready F-150 Raptor pickup truck. We've made no attempt to hide our appreciation for the Baja-style truck, which combines most of the usability of a fullsize truck with heavy-duty suspension components to make a kind of performance vehicle that is unique in the market.
What we haven't known, until now, is whether Ford would push forward with its Raptor program now that it has a completely new F-150 to serve as its base. And that's especially true since Ford made the bold move of switching the bodywork of its best-seller from tried-and-true steel to aluminum. As you can see above, the front and rear of this silver truck are clad in current-gen Raptor bodywork, while the center section that houses the occupants appears to come from the upcoming 2015 F-150.
Dissecting the views above, we note a few interesting tidbits. First, there looks to be a bulge in the truck's hood. Second, we see a new grille between the current Raptor's headlights, sporting a mesh finish and two horizontal bars. Lastly, our eyes can't help but lock in on those burly A-arm suspension pieces down below, not to mention all that ground clearance the specialty suspenders bring to the table.

Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
