Hi Everyone,

1962 T-Bird that I just got recently from my friend and was hoping to restore it but my new baby boy needs a bigger house, so no money to spend on hobbies I guess.

It is being offered in a bid-to-buy auction with No Reserve! So bid to win and Please make sure you have the funds ready before you bid. Due to previous experience with bidders with low feedback, any bids with less than 5 feedbacks will be cancelled.

The car is currently in a storage place close to me (15min)

Here is my summary for a complete test of the car (I'm not a mechanic):

 

As you see it has body damage on the rear passenger's side quarter panel and tail light. This is how I got it. I got an estimate from the collision shop that I deal with for $1,000. No Rust in the body at all as you see in pics!

The Engine runs like a champ but it takes few cranks to start it on colder days, I did see a small oil leak on the side of the engine. The trans need the cable replaced it shifts fine but you have to shift from 1st to 2nd to 3rd using the shifter knob. The fuel and temperature gauges not working. Heat works fine. Interior is ok. the trim on the passenger door and fender are in the trunk and so are the hubcaps covers. the trim on the quarter panel where the damage is missing. Trunk does not close. The trim on the trunk and interior mirror are inside of car. The rest all complete and all original ! While testing I heard a squeak noise from the passenger's side axle when steering all the way to the end.

You must pick up or arrange for shipping, but I don't recommend driving this car out of state or for a very long trip before everything is taken care of. The weight/fee category on the title is 4092 if that can help with shipping

I know that this is a rare color and not many tbirds out there with this nice turquoise in and out.

I'm sorry about the quality of the pics but if you have any questions please ask.

I don't have space for it on my driveway and need to have it out of storage ASAP.

I know I'm forgetting something, but trying to say everything I know about it.

I'm still in contact with the previous owner and he'll be glad to talk to you about it. I know he had it for a long time.

Car is listed locally for sale.

$500 Deposit Required Immediately after the end of Auction. If you don't like the car you can have your deposit back.

Please you must have all the funds ready before the end of the Auction!

Clear Michigan Title in Hand. Any questions please ask!

Thank you for looking and Happy Holidays!

Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]

Sun, 08 Dec 2013

The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.

2015 Ford Mustang renders reveal look of the real thing

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

This is, according to the pony-car obsessed kids over at Mustang6G.com, the closest, most accurate rendering of the new, 2015 Ford Mustang to date. Artis Chazcron used a combination of Ford CAD images and information from assorted spy shots to assemble a fairly handsome car, albeit one that conforms to the tired cliché of being more evolutionary than revolutionary.
Now, it's very important to note that these are still speculative renders, and that they only represent the base car - that could explain the lack of the Mustang's vestigial side scoops, along with other, newer styling cues that Mustang6G seems to think will arrive on production models. Those items include a new, double-bubble roof, although the Mustang aficionados claim that even if it were present, it'd barely be visible from these angles.
The front end is pretty spot on, compared to what we've seen from earlier spy shots, while the tail, with its interesting light design is something new. The louvered taillights look quite different from the current version, obviously, though Mustang has gone the whimsical route with taillights before. Also, note the new rear diffuser uses an integrated reverse light and rear foglight, the latter of which is required for sale in Europe.

2015 Mustang-based Saleen S302 to boast as much as 640 hp

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

The Ford Mustang is obviously a famous performance vehicle in its own right, but it often works even better as a platform for the aftermarket to upgrade. With the all-new 2015 model just now hitting the scene, the famous tuners at Saleen are getting their improvements for the new pony car ready for the world. After recently teasing it, the specs for its fresh S302 model are officially here, along with a first look at it in profile.
Of course, the biggest question on everyone's mind is how much power the company can get from the Mustang's V8. With the 2015 V8 model rated at 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet, Saleen expects to bump the Ford factory numbers slightly to 450 hp and 410 lb-ft in naturally aspirated form, or with the benefit of a supercharger, it will rocket the engine's output figures to 640 hp and 565 lb-ft. No matter which powerplant a buyer chooses, there are a wide variety of available final-drive ratios with a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Available as either a coupe or convertible forms, Saleen will offer its S302 in three trim levels - White Label, Yellow Label and Black Label. The White Label is the only naturally aspirated one of the bunch, but it still benefits from upgrades like a new exhaust, limited-slip differential, improved suspension, heat extractor hood and rear wing.
