I am always available by mail at: carmelmangieri@juno.com .

You are looking at an exceptional, very special car. It is listed in the official K Code Registry. Here is my
story. In the fall of 1964, I was 18 years old and I purchased my first new car from Gene Hamon Ford Dealership in
Texas City, Texas. I special ordered the 289 High Performance model with 4 speed transmission. I became the proud
owner of the only K code, hipo Mustang in Galveston County. There are so many memories wrapped up in my car, it is
one of the hardest decisions I have ever made to now offer it for sale. I was 18 years old when I bought it and now
I am close to my 70th birthday.

If you know Mustang history, and I hope you do, you will appreciate the special place an original K Code car holds
in the 50 year history of Mustangs. Of all the Million plus Mustangs produced during the first generation 1965-67,
less than 1% were the high performance model. It came with the Special 289/271 horse, 4 barrel carb, solid lifter
engine.This the the engine Carroll Shelby used in creating the first racing Shelby Mustangs and the Cobras. When I
ordered it, in addition to the High Performance engine, in 1965 it only came with a 4 speed transmission, the
famous 9 inch Ford rear end, Mine has the 3.89:1 gear ratio. You could not get AC, power steering, windows,
brakes. It only came with a radio and heater. That was all I needed.

This car has no rust whatsoever. I went through a long slow process of restoration which was completed in 2009.
Since that time, It only gets out of the garage for an occasional car show or Mustang Club events. I have won my
class numerous times in judged shows.

The car is painted in its original color, which is also a very rare Phoenician Yellow as it came from factory, I
installed Tri-Y headers, a Hurst 4 speed shifter and added the new rims within the last 2 years, other than that,
she is a stock K Code.even down to the mechanical choke on the 4100 autolite 1:12 four barrel carb.

I know what my car is, I know what it's value is in the collector car market. You can look for a long time and will
not find a K code with this history. I only know of 2 other original 65 Mustang owners and neither one has a K
code.

2022 GMC Sierra Denali Ultimate vs. 2022 Ram 1500 Limited Longhorn vs. Ford F-150 Limited | Luxury truck interior face-off

Fri, Oct 22 2021

GMC's new uber-expensive 2022 Sierra Denali Ultimate is the latest luxury truck to nudge toward six-figure territory. With demand for upmarket half-tons surging, GMC's otherwise-solid pickup found itself in desperate need of an interior remodel. For 2022, we're getting just that, and it appears ready to take the fight to the segment's best, including the 2022 Ram 1500 Limited and 2022 Ford F-150 Limited. Here's the new Denali Ultimate interior in all of its full-grain, open-pore glory. 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate vs. 2021 GMC Denali Not only did the material quality and styling both improve greatly, but the new truck also gets a completely different shifter setup (truck buyers don't like column shifters anymore, apparently). It would actually be difficult to overstate the quality of the upgrade here; the photos really speak for themselves. It's also worth noting that in addition to looking significantly more upscale than the model it's succeeding, the new Denali interior also differs a bit more from its Chevy counterpart than its predecessor did. Here's the new Silverado High Country for reference: While some elements do carry over, the entire dash design is different, down to the positioning of the heating and cooling vents. While the main HVAC controls are essentially carried over, note that they're pretty much the only ones. Even the horizontal bar of switches running along the center stack is positioned differently between the two. Yep. This is a pretty big upgrade over the 2021 cabin, and clearly the range-topper in GM's truck hierarchy. But what of the competition? 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate vs. 2022 Ram Limited Longhorn Southfork This one's tough. We're going to have to spend time in them back to back, but the Ram Limited, with its various anniversary editions and other special permutations, is certainly the interior to beat. To our eyes, the Sierra's more horizontal layout is a bit more modern and perhaps luxurious-looking than the more upright cabin treatment of the Ram, but it's tough to say for certain from photos. Both the Denali Ultimate and Ram Limited carry their upscale feel into their back benches too, which is something we can't say quite as confidently about our next contestant. 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate vs. 2021 Ford F-150 Limited The Ford F-150 Limited holds its own, but it's probably the least photogenic of the models we've looked at here, at least apart from the outgoing Denali.

Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.

Ford's new GT Le Mans racer sounds awesome

Fri, Jun 12 2015

Ford showed its new GT Le Mans racecar this morning, and we're stoked. The gorgeous new racecar will run in the LM GTE Pro class in the FIA World Endurance Championship and United SportsCar Championship, followed by a four-car showing at the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. For those keeping track, the 2016 race will mark the 50th anniversary of Ford's big Le Mans victory in 1966. In addition to images and some limited information, Ford released this video of the Le Mans racecar, and we haven't been able to stop watching. This thing sounds amazing, and it looks super cool racing through the streets of Paris, even if it's all just CGI. Thus, we figured we'd pull the video out again, just in case you missed it the first time. Turn your volume up. This one's really good.
