Mustang Mach 1 on 2040-cars
Dorchester, Nebraska, United States
My eMail : frediymkknauf@web.de This was the last year for the first-generation Mustang, though it had changed vastly since its launch in 1964 as an early 1965 model. The 1973 Ford Mustang suffered another weight and size increase thanks to safety regulations. A 5-mph bumper was now required in front and a 2.5-mile bumper at the rear. The bumpers added four inches to the length of the car and 50 lbs weight. Production increased to 134,817 units, partly due to the news that there would be no convertible in the downsized model around the corner. The heart to this Mustang is a 351- 4-barrel Cleveland engine creating around 266 HP and 301 Lb-ft or torque. It was rebuilt and has approximately 32,000 miles on it, since being completed. The 351C is connected to a Ford C6- Auto Transmission, which some refer to as the Hold on tight to the steering wheel and plop down into the brown leather seats and interior, which not only looks sharp, but makes for a comfortable ride when cruising this Mach-1 around town or down the highway. While cruising, roll down the windows, step on the gas and feel free to turn on some retro or modern tunes as you?ll enjoy the sound produced by the Sony speakers as both you and them cut through the wind. Other options on this Mustang include: A/C, AM/FM Radio, CD Player, Power Brakes, Power Steering, & Radial Tires. This 1973 Mustang Mach-1 will be tearing up some roads and chewing up some asphalt for a happy new owner very soon. Will this be you?

Mustang Cobra Jet prototype garners $200k for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Wed, 02 Oct 2013A few weeks ago we brought you news of a one-off Mustang Cobra Jet that Ford was donating to charity. The car was set to be auctioned off by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Now that auction has taken place, bringing in an impressive $200,000 for MS research.
That's a lot of zeros for a Mustang, much less one you can't even drive on the street. But the unique pony car, bearing serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1, packs a 5.0-liter supercharged V8, competition gearbox, wheelie bar, roll cage... all you could want, in short, in a turn-key drag racer. And all that for a good cause.
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
