1966 Mustang Coupe on 2040-cars
Bristol, Wisconsin, United States
More pictures, underbody and interior, can be found at this link on Photobucket: The car has been stripped down, and only needs to be blasted to start any metal-working. Paint on drivers side door, as well as front hood was chemically stripped lightly which is the reason for the discoloring on that side. In the process, I found no filler, and no rust underneath. Light rust in typical classic-car spots. Around wheel wells on quarterpanels, and front fenders. Floor boards are solid. Underbody is very clean, pictures from the photobucket account will show. Came with an inline 6 that was running when pulled off the trailer. I have all body panels that came with the car originally. I have ALL the glass, most of the trim, seats and interior, engine/transmission. The car moved to Texas in the early-80s from New Jersey and was covered, and has been in my garage since 2005. I have a 289 block WITH heads that will come in addition to the car and inline 6. The pictures provided include some before teardown, and some after teardown. |

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
Petrolicious pays visit to tuning sensation the Ringbrothers
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We caught up with a few projects from Ringbrothers at SEMA this year: a classic Ford Mustang body rendered in carbon fiber, and a De Tomaso Pantera-based concept that made us swoon.
It's with good timing then, that our friends at Petrolicious have uploaded their newest, well-crafted mini-documentary to the expansive airwaves of the Internet. Here, we meet the brothers Ring in person - Mike and Jim - and see how they've lent they're passion for craftsmanship to their business, along with their surname. A 1964 Ford Fairlane dubbed "Afterburner" and a 1965 Mustang called "Producer" star in this show.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
