1998 Mustang Gt (low Miles) on 2040-cars
Evansville, Indiana, United States
Performance upgrades. PI heads and cam typhoon intake manifold mac cold air under fender with air filter ford underdrive pulleys 3:73 gears 75 mm throttle body BBK shorty headers BBK off road H-pipe Imco performance mufflers (sounds awesome) Eibach drag launch springs (lowered car 1.5 inches) Appearance upgrades Painted black racing stripes Lambo door kit Misc. chrome engine parts Euro tail lights Billet antenna, fuel door, grill Chrome GT short throw shifter Three 10 inch JL audio subs 1500 watt MTX amp and capcitor (subs and amp needs hooked up) 20 inch boss wheels with cooper tires Black leather power seats This is a very nice one of a kind mustang and has done very well at many local car shows. All upgrades have been properly done and the cars whole life has been spent in a garage or covered (car cover included). I have never mistreated this car nor has it ever seen a track. The car is in excellent shape, but it is 16 years old so if you look close enough I am sure you will find a scratch or nick here or there. The only issues that I am aware of with the car is that is does have a little exhaust rattle that I haven't had a chance to fix. Also, the reason I have the amp and subs unhooked is because when hooked up there is a slow battery drain. I am guessing that there is a short leading into the capacitor or amp. Should be an easy fix, but I haven't had a chance to look for the wire that needs replaced. Rather than that, this is a great car. The reason I am selling is because I have another mustang that I have been working on and two toys are one too many. Buyer is responsible for shipping, but I will help where needed. This car is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells locally. Please email questions or concerns. I can send additional photos if desired. Below is a link to a youtube video. Thanks for looking!

Ford considering return to Le Mans with new EcoBoost LMP2
Mon, 21 Jul 2014If you want to see a Ford racing prototype, you need look no further than the United SportsCar Championship, where the Blue Oval fields two Daytona Prototypes powered by an EcoBoost-branded 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. But according to the latest rumors, that may not be enough for Ford, which has as much brand to promote overseas as it does back home.
That could be why Racer magazine is reporting that Ford may be poised to return to Le Mans in the coming years. As we all know, Ford competed at Le Mans in the mid-through-late '60s, bringing home four consecutive overall wins with the legendary GT40. The new program would not, according to Racer, seek to relive those glory days, but would instead compete for class wins in the LMP2 category.
Currently, LMP2 regulations are somewhat split between the United SportsCar Championship in North America on the one hand and ACO-sanctioned series like the European Le Mans Series, Asian Le Mans Series and FIA World Endurance Championship on the other, but plans are underway for the regulations to be unified in time for the 2017 season. That could be when Ford is targeting its return, allowing it to compete on both sides of the Atlantic to maximize its exposure.
Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
