As you can see from the pictures I have a great appreciation for fun cars and they are all in near perfect condition.

This car has been meticulously cared, its condition is nearly flawless inside and out and is an extremely fun car to drive! I purchased the car form a Gentleman that was in his late fifties with 7740 miles on it, he and his wife took some trips in it and stored it in the winter as I have also done. The car has never been driven in the winter or on bad roads and seldom even in the rain. When I purchased the car I spent a tremendous amount of money on upgrades and had the turbo installed with about 15000 miles on the car. The upgrades are;

$6500-Hellion Turbo system that was professionally installed and dyno tuned by a ford racing shop in Chicago. The car produced an incredible 435 horse at the wheels on 91 octane and 483foot lbs. It is running a very reliable 9.5 lbs of boost. It has very little lag and is extremely controllable and yet is Extremely fast. I had a 97 Viper, this car would beat the Viper to 80 MPH. 

$3800-Instalation and tuning of the turbo.

$800-Turbo gauges and install.

$4500-MHT true, three piece 20" wheels that are staggered and wrapped with Nitto Invo 255/35/zr20's in the front and 295/35/zr20's in the back giving the car a very nice stance and rake to it.

$600-Magna flow exhaust.

$500GT 500 rear spoiler.

$300GT 500 front chin spoiler.

$1500-Cervini-Custom hood, paint, Grill and center head lights.

$500-Cervini-Custom light,roll bar

This is my first Turbo car and it is very addictive, when the boost kicks in you can very literally watch the boost gauge and modulate the amount of boost by simply applying more throttle. The car produces so much torque that at lower speeds you have to keep the traction control on or it will spin the tires uncontrollably and yet you can drive it all day in traffic with no overheating or any drivability issues. You would never know the car has a power adder if you don't want it. Thats the beauty of the turbo.

As you can see I truly have spent a tremendous amount of money on the car. The result I believe is it has an amazing look and muscular stance that gets a lot of compliments! The majority of the miles are from my wife driving it because of the other cars that I have. It gets low twenties on the highway, I have always used Synthetic oil. The car is nearly flawless in every way. The only very minor issues are a couple of minute rock chips and a small scuff on the passengers side of the convertible top that I have shown and the front chin spoiler has a crack in it due to my wife pulling up too close to the curb.

I do reserve the right to stop the auction early.

I have been a long time Ebay member, I have not sold a lot on Ebay but my Items have always been cars or motorcycles and the new owners have given great feedback. There are No disappointments with this car.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history

Sat, 03 May 2014

You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.
