This car was born in california, raised in Vegas and brought to Michigan for restoration. Being a solid Western car, we chose to go over board and make it better than new.. In doing so, we had some minor modifications made to the body and interior. These modifications were designed to make it a show car, with best of show ability. This has paid off well, with best of show wins and many trophy's, including Good Guys. The minor modifications are as follows.

The brite work was replated with cu., ni, ch., and the aluminum was re anodised. All the stainless trim was removed and restored and polished as new.

The body was striped and blocked to remove factory imperfections.

The paint is base clear, Guards Red, that was color sanded and polished to a mirror finish.

The car was lowered 3'' and fitted with rear air shocks to be used when required. This did not effect the smooth ride.

The wheels were changed from 14" to 15" chrome smoothies and dressed with radial white wall tires. That improved the ride and handeling.

The hood and doors were shaved, with keyless enrty for the drivers door, controled by the key fob.

The lake pipes are decrotive and are not connected.

The interior was done in briliant pearl white, which refects the heat so well, that it is comfortable in the hot sun.

The convertible top is white and has recently recieved a new top motor and lines, to make it perform like new.

The engine came with the car, I don't think it's original, but is period correct and was rebuilt about 4000 miles ago.The engine was fitted with petronics and a new 4V.

The transmission is a standard shift three speed , with over drive, which makes it comfortable as a interstate cruiser.

The dual exhaust has glass pacs along the exhaust extensions, I which I call echo cans and are 3 1/2" X 18" and produce a low pleasant tone.

We have had a lot of fun with this car and it's the best in the collection, but age has crept up on us, so it's time for it to find a new home. Having sold are other cars, we have found that the new owners have become friends and hope this is the same with the Sunliner. We will continue to attend shows, but it will be with our 49 Merc, which is where it all started.

Thanks for looking

PS: The car has been driven to local shows, but yes, it's a trailer queen for the out of town shows.

2016 Ford Mustang gets new packages, trim and hood-vent turn signals

Mon, May 11 2015

Ford just introduced the 2015 Mustang last year, but the iconic pony car is already getting a few minor updates for the 2016 model year consisting primarily of new options packages and trim. For starters, Ford is bringing back the turn indicators integrated into the hood vents, first launched on the Mustang nearly half a century ago, which will now be fitted as standard on the Mustang GT. The feature was apparently requested by customers, and signals to the driver when the turning indicator is on. Premium models also get the new Sync 3 system. The Blue Oval automaker is also offering racing stripes in black or silver on the Mustang GT and Mustang EcoBoost, along with a black roof option. There's a new Pony Package available for the EcoBoost Premium model as well, with 19-inch polished alloys, special grille, side stripe and chrome window surround. Customers ordering a Mustang GT fastback or convertible can opt for the Black Accent Package with murdered-out wheels, spoiler, taillamp trim and logos. There's a California Special Package being offered on the Mustang GT Premium with such touches as 19-inch black machined alloys, hood and side stripes, black spoiler, mirror and hood vents, dark taillamp accents, a front splitter, special grille and gas cap, strut tower brace and an interior decked out in black leather with suede inserts and red stitching. Finally, Ford is offering a Performance Package for the Mustang GT convertible with the manual transmission, similar to the kit available for the fastback but catered to the drop-top. The package includes upgraded suspension, Brembo brakes, 19-inch black-painted alloys, a larger radiator, strut tower brace and K-brace, retuned electronics, a Torsen limited slip differential, machine-turned aluminum instrument panel, a new splitter and the removal of the rear spoiler.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
