Description: 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback 2x2 in excellent condition with no rust. A San Jose, CA Ford factory built
Fastback which spent most of its time in Texas and California. It has its original 289 engine and transmission
with a 4 bbl Holley carburetor, 8 quart oil pan with cobra valve covers, deluxe pony seat interior with pistol grip
door handles, drivers side adjustable mirror and working dealer installed original A/C unit and 8 track cassette
player. Currently I have an Mp3-Ipod player in the glove box connected to the dash speaker but it can easily be
converted back to the 8 track cassette player. In the last 2 years the mustang was rebuild with a new Holley
carburetor, water pump, thermostat, electric fan with new aluminum radiator, alternator, universal joint, rear end
rebuilt by Currie with 3.25 gears, Wilwood vented front disc brakes, new rear drums, front springs, front and rear
KYB shocks, new interior carpet and center console, rally pac, new dash pad and interior door lamps and headliner.
All mechanical work was performed by professional speed shop and I have receipts. The interior is black with no
rips or tears in the front/rear seats or headliner.
I had the fastback painted in ivy metallic green 2 years ago and it looks fantastic, no dings dents or cracks in
the paint. The exterior trim pieces over the rocker panels, front grille with pony and 2x2 emblems on the sides are
also new. The front and rear turning signals are new and the fastback was previously fitted with GT fog lamps and
rear valance with exhaust fluted ports. There are 15x7 new rally rims with BF Goodrich T/A tires that have less
then 750 miles on them. I had new exhaust, muffles and elite headers installed a little over a year ago.
All of the dash gauges, tachometer/clock and lights including fog lamps work with the exception of the ten
thousand's dial of the odometer which I noticed recently did not turn over from 6 to 7 to indicate 70,000 miles.
All of the other odometer number dials are working. In addition the dash lights for the fuel and water gauges
appear somewhat dim at night when you turn the lights on. The exterior head lights, fog lights and
turn/brake/reverse signals front and rear work perfectly.
There are No Warranties express or implied. The Car is being sold As Is.

Ford Escort returns, just not for US

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

Ford is set to give the burgeoning Chinese market its very own C-segment model, while also reviving one of the brand's more notable nameplates. The new Escort, which will make its world debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show will be built in the People's Republic at the Changan Ford joint venture facility.
The Escort's exterior is best thought of as a mix of the finer points from the US market Focus and Fusion, with the Aston Martin-ish grille and narrow, wraparound taillights presenting a clean look at either end of the car. It's all fairly true to the concept car from last year's Shanghai Motor Show. That said, this exterior job is almost too clean. There doesn't seem to be a lot of character or substance beyond the typical Ford looks.
There's a similar issue in the cabin - it all looks pretty nice, but the design is rather plain, particularly when viewed alongside the display-filled cabin of a US-spec car. Still, there looks to be a fair amount of space in both the front and back seats, and the trunk isn't exactly tiny, either.

Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected

Thu, 29 May 2014

Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
