Clean Idaho title. This Fairlane runs and drives nicely. Not currently licensed. Car has power steering with rebuilt control valve. This Fairlane was recently refurbished. Not a total restoration but I will list what was done to my knowledge.
ENGINE- 289, std bore from an 80K 1966 donor car was rebuilt professionally with a 292 cam, Edlebrock Performer intake, rebuilt Holley 450 4 barrel carb. All new rod, cam, and main bearings, new flat top pistons, new oil pump and shaft, new plugs etc. Zinc additive added to initial oil change. New exhaust and mufflers. C-4, checked out by mechanic as great, filter and fluid changed.

BODY- Entire body was dismantled and blasted, primed with 2K primer. The drivers floor pan and lower rear quarters were the only rusted areas and were replaced. All window tracks were removed, cleaned and re-lubed. Refurbished grill assembly. All turn signal and tail lights were cleaned and re-assembled. Car was mostly shaved and electric door poppers installed. A black basecoat/clearcoat system from NAPA was used to spray the car.

INTERIOR-New headliner, rear package tray, carpet and pad, door panels, interior quarter panels, arm rest pads, new dash pad cover, new upholstery on front and rear seats. Front seats are 66 Mustang units. New seat belts up front. trunk divider panel, dome light, ignition switch, glove box liner, refurbished wiring where necessary. Aftermarket hump-hugger console. Heater works. Carpeted trunk. Dash instruments and interior paint refurbished, misc. stuff repaired.

WEATHERSTRIPPING-new windshield seal, new rear window rubber seal, new beltline fuzzies on doors and quarter windows, door seals, roof rail weatherstrip, cowl to hood seal, radiator to hood seal, trunk seal, headlight seals, door and hood rubber bumpers etc. New wipers.

GLASS- all glass is in very good condition, each piece was removed and resealed where necessary.

Old school ET mags with good radial tires. Spare tire and all jack hardware, New shocks up front, air shocks in the rear. Replaced gas tank with a known good clean unit.

BRAKES- new or rebuilt master cylinder and all wheel cylinders. New brake pads, re-lubed wheel bearings. New idler arm.

Car does need front and rear bumpers re-chromed. They are very straight and will need only normal prep. Paint and body are not flawless, some minor dings and a fair amount of swirl marks in clear coat. Looks great at 5 feet but is not a "new car" finish. This car was bought as an unfinished project and then completed so I have only listed what I actually know about it. Speedometer reads 5400 so it has turned over, don't know if that is original unit or not. All said, this is a pretty straight car that is fun to drive and has hard all the hard work done. Has two 100 watt speakers in back but needs a stereo. Feel free to call- 208-888-4543 for questions.

Translogic 180: Zombie 222 Electric '68 Mustang

Wed, Jul 15 2015

Translogic heads to Austin, TX for a chance to drive the all-electric Zombie 222, a 1968 Ford Mustang converted by Mitch Medford and his team at Blood Shed Motors. "I wanted to start a company that would do nothing but specialize in converting vintage iconic cars into supercars," said Medford. The Zombie 222 has classic looks, but modern performance with over 800 horsepower and 1,800 ft-lbs of torque, making it the fastest electric car we've ever driven on Translogic. Those mind-blowing specs helped the Zombie 222 conquer the Texas Mile, setting the electric speed record at 174.2 miles per hour. "The Zombie 222 has been breaking electric records, said Medford. "Now it's time to break records—gas or electric." Next up for Medford and his Zombie 222 is a Kickstarter-funded attempt at 200 miles per hour. But first, we take a turn behind the wheel.

Ford F-100 'Snakebit' shown off by Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed at SEMA

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford, along with KISS bassist Gene Simmons and his wife, Shannon Tweed, used SEMA as a backdrop to pull the covers off Snakebit, a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck that's been updated with Shelby Mustang-derived styling bits and a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine. All 550 horsepower are funneled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Underneath the custom bodywork sits a chassis that's been stretched five inches and a bed widened and bedecked with billet machined pieces that are supposed to look like wood. The 20-inch rear and 18-inch front wheels ape those of past Shelby Mustang models. The interior is swathed in two-tone leather with a bench seat designed to look - try to act surprised - like a Shelby Mustang.
Like what you see? Bidding for the truck will take place in 2014 at an unspecified Barrett-Jackson event (we'd assume Scottsdale). Proceeds will be used to help build a children's hospital in Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, where Ms. Tweed grew up. See the high-res gallery above and the press release down below for more.
