Hello everyone.  Up for bids is my 1987 Saleen Mustang.  It is car number 87-186.  It is finished in the original 1D dark grey and was painted about 6 years ago.   This Mustang wears all of its original VIN tagged sheet metal.  Never wrecked.  NOS quarter windows were replaced after the re paint.  Originals were faded pretty bad.  All of the Saleen specific parts are with the car.  I have done a few performance enhancing upgrades since I have owned it.  The engine is original but the cylinder heads have been replaced with 1995 vintage Lightning GT 40 type.  The intake manifold is an Explorer GT 40 type.  The valvetrain has 1.7 roller rockers.  Exhaust is Ford Motorsport headers going in to a NOS original catalytic convertor H-pipe and 2 1/2 inch Flowmaster cat back system with polished tail pipes. All of the original emissions and thermactor pieces are on the car and functional.  Passed a smog check in Las Vegas NV a couple of years ago with no problems.   The rear axle has a 3.27 gear.  Tires are 5 years old and are BF Goodrich G-Force KDW.  They have about 10k miles on them.

        The interior is in Good condition with some fading on the drivers seat side bolster.   Has all of the original interior pieces.  The original Kenwood has been replaced by a later model and looks very close to the original.  I have the original Kenwood stereo.  This Saleen runs and drives great.  I got 25 mpg on a trip to Las Vegas this past spring.  Was shown at the Mustang 50th Anniversary show in Las Vegas.   This is a very nice example of a foxbody Saleen that I get compliments on every time I drive it.

 Forgot to mention that all of the accessories including power windows and locks are in working condition.  The A/C  blows cold.  The discrepancy on the odometer reading is a result of the state of New Mexico not adding a 1 for the 100k.  The car shouldn't be dinged from Autocheck for that but it is what it is.   I have other pics available too if interested.

 Also I have a copy of the Marti report.  I can send a copy to anyone interested.  It shows being ordered through Damerow Ford in Beaverton Oregon.  The car has both the Saleen buck tag and Ford buck tag on the core support.  The Saleen has absolutely NO RUST.  Has been in a desert environment most of its life.

Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
