1965 Ford Mustang Fastback A Code on 2040-cars
Saint Benedict, Pennsylvania, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : brian.loberg@zoho.com .
1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. This is an "A" Code car which meant it came from the factory with the 289 V8 with 4 Barrel Carb option.
Engine: This engine is a 1965 Ford 289 (not original to this vehicle but correct motor) stroked into a 331 stroker. Bored .30 over and the deck has been leveled. I sent this to a build shop to have it built. It had literally everything done. SCAT 331 Stroker kit installed, Edelbrock Aluminum heads, THUMPER cam (which hits super hard), Holley Double Pumper, and all exterior items such as intake mainfifold, alternator are chrome .
Exhaust: Chrome long tube headers with flowmaster Exhaust with stock style baffles coming out of the rear vallace.
Transmission: I believe this is the original transmission to this car. It is a Toploader Speed with a hurst shifter. All seals etc were replaced on this. After the car is warmed up, it tends to pop out of nd gear unless you hold the shifter down. I never had a problem just holding the shifter down and never investigated the matter further.
Interior: Everything redone on the inside except the headliner and fold down seat. Dash and seats look great. Right rear interior quarter panel has a hole in it from where somebody put a speaker in. I believe it is the orignial panel so I never replaced it. The headliner needs to be replaced as it is ripped in the back. All gauges work properly except the speedometer recently went. I checked it out and the cable was melted by the header. Rear fold down seat is missing some parts. Looks good to me so I never bothered with it. Blower was never hooked up for defrost etc as I never drove this car in the rain or questionable weather.
Body: This car is painted FLAT Black. It is how I got it. All of the exterior chrome is new and I really liked the way it looked with the flat black. You can tell there was not much prepwork done before they painted this. You see marks here and there when looking close. Mainly on the trunk lid and roof. One quarter panel looks like it was reparied around the wheel well. I am INCLUDING Two NOS reproduction quarter panels that I found in a barn. Also including the original hood. This has a fiberglass shelby hood with steel frame. New Floor Pans on this. Underside looks clean.
Suspension: NEW rear leaf springs, shackles, and shocks. NEW Front coils, and shocks. All suspension is factory original spec.
Rear: Factory 8 inch Rear. Restored.
Other NEW Parts: NEW Gas tank, New fuel lines front to back, New brakes all the way around, New brank lines front to back, new resevoir, New american racing 17 inch wheels with performance tires (approx 500 miles on wheels and tires), New Grill , New gas cap, New front and rear valance.

2015 Ford F-150 enters production
Wed, 12 Nov 2014Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.
Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]
Sun, 08 Dec 2013The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
Alan Mulally talks about why Ford's Falcon had to die
Tue, 20 Aug 2013When Ford made the decision to end production of the Falcon sedan and Territory CUV in Australia, it wasn't a popular move Down Under. The large, four-door Falcon had been in production for 50 years, and while Ford has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian market, it's understandable that some people still aren't all that crazy about the Blue Oval's decision.
Speaking to CEO Alan Mulally after Ford's Go Further event in Sydney, Australian site Go Auto reports that the decision was not one made lightly, and that the automaker is doing everything possible to respect the Falcon and Territory's "stakeholders." It's an interesting piece that shows a softer side of a corporation, while demonstrating that Ford is doing everything in its power to make the end of production as smooth as possible for all parties.
Head over to Go Auto for the full series of remarks from Mulally, and then let us know what you think of Ford's handling of the Falcon and Territory discontinuations, in Comments.
