Up for sale is my 1989 Mustang GT Convertible. I have owned several fox body mustangs over the years and this one is in the best shape of any of them. I bought the car in January from a Ford Dealership in IL. where the owner of the dealership won the car in a charity auction. The original owner had decided to put the car in a charity auction to raise money for his church and the owner of the dealership won the bid and put the car in his dealership showroom. A friend of mine that worked at the dealership heard that the owner wanted to sell the car and knew that I was looking for a GT Convertible Fox body. I am the second private owner. The car is in amazing shape and is 1 of 470 Dark Grey Metallic over Titanium cars Ford ever made. In my opinion this is a great color because it doesn't scream 80's. In my opinion the 1989 GT's are the best of the Fox Body's because it is the last year of the tilt wheel, Mass Air, and they started to detune for emissions in the following years. The car has had one repaint and the paint looks good but is not perfect. The interior is all original but I did reupholster the front seats due to the driver's seat having a tear from the seat belt that I couldn't live with. The top is like new and the carpet is very good for a 24 year old car. I have looked at a lot of fox body mustangs over the years and this one is in better condition than many of the 30K mile cars I looked at. I have the original Turbine wheels but I like the pony wheels so that is what I put on it. The Turbines go with the car if you want them. Convertibles NEED subframe connectors so I added them, they are the bolt on but you can either take them off to be original or weld them in. I also changed the rear gear from 2.73 to 3.55's because the 2.73 are just WAY to high.
This car has not been molested it is correct in every way. It is a true survivor car that is priced right. The underside of this car looks like it is brand new. I also installed a K member brace up front with a new steering rack to firm up the front in. The old steering rack had a small leak and needed to be replaced. I am sure I am forgetting some things but if you have questions or need more photos etc just call me at 314-303-eight, five, two, zero

Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.
Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24
Tue, 01 Oct 2013It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9.

How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]
Fri, 30 May 2014Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
